[PMID: 39002358 DOI: 10.1016/j.nutres.2024.05.005] [Citation(s) in RCA: 0] [Impact Index Per Article: 0] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Key Words] [Track Full Text] [Journal Information] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 02/24/2024] [Revised: 05/24/2024] [Accepted: 05/24/2024] [Indexed: 07/15/2024]
Abstract
Sesamolin, a lignan isolated from sesame oils, has been found to possess neuroprotective, anticancer, and free radical scavenging properties. We hypothesized that sesamolin could stimulate the activity of nuclear factor erythroid-derived 2-like 2 (Nrf2) and inhibit adipocyte differentiation of preadipocytes. The objective of this study was to investigate effects of sesamolin on adipocyte differentiation and its underlying molecular mechanisms. In this study, we determined the effects of treatment with 25 to 100 µM sesamolin on adipogenesis in cell culture systems. Sesamolin inhibited lipid accumulation and suppressed the expression of adipocyte markers during adipocyte differentiation of C3H10T1/2, 3T3-L1, and primary preadipocytes. Mechanism studies revealed that sesamolin increased Nrf2 protein expression without inducing its mRNA, leading to an increase in the expression of Nrf2 target genes such as heme oxygenase 1 and NAD(P)H:quinone oxidoreductase 1 (Nqo1) in C3H10T1/2 adipocytes and mouse embryonic fibroblasts. These effects were significantly attenuated in Nrf2 knockout (KO) mouse embryonic fibroblasts, indicating that effects of sesamolin were dependent on Nrf2. In H1299 human lung cancer cells with KO of Kelch like-ECH-associated protein 1 (Keap1), a negative regulator of Nrf2, sesamolin failed to further increase Nrf2 protein expression. However, upon reexpressing Keap1 in Keap1 KO cells, the ability of sesamolin to elevate Nrf2 protein expression was restored, highlighting the crucial role of Keap1 in sesamolin-induced Nrf2 activation. Taken together, these findings show that sesamolin can inhibit adipocyte differentiation through Keap1-mediated Nrf2 activation.

Loss of PA28γ exacerbates imbalanced differentiation of bone marrow stromal cells during bone formation and bone healing in mice. J Bone Miner Res 2024; 39:326-340. [PMID: 38477820 DOI: 10.1093/jbmr/zjae012] [Citation(s) in RCA: 0] [Impact Index Per Article: 0] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Key Words] [MESH Headings] [Grants] [Track Full Text] [Journal Information] [Submit a Manuscript] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 08/24/2023] [Revised: 01/04/2024] [Accepted: 01/10/2024] [Indexed: 03/14/2024]
Abstract
Proteasome activator subunit 3 (PA28γ) is a member of the proteasome activator family, which mainly regulates the degradation and stability of proteins. Studies have shown that it plays crucial roles in lipid formation, stemness maintenance, and blood vessel formation. However, few studies have clarified the association between PA28γ and bone diseases. Herein, we identified PA28γ as a previously unknown regulator of bone homeostasis that coordinates bone formation and lipid accumulation. PA28γ-knockout mice presented with the characteristics of low bone mass and accumulation of lipids. Suppressed expression of PA28γ restrained the osteogenic differentiation and enhanced the adipogenic differentiation of bone marrow stromal cells (BMSCs). Overexpression of PA28γ promoted osteogenic differentiation and inhibited adipogenic differentiation of BMSCs. Mechanistically, PA28γ interacted with Wnt5α, and the two interactors appeared to be positively correlated. PA28γ mainly activated the downstream Wnt/β-catenin signaling pathway, which affects BMSCs differentiation homeostasis. Deletion of Wnt5α significantly delayed the promotion of osteogenic differentiation and partially alleviated the inhibitory effect of adipogenic differentiation of BMSCs in the PA28γ-overexpressing group. Furthermore, we demonstrated that PA28γ-knockout mice had an inhibited rate of bone healing in a drill-hole femoral bone defect model in vivo. Therefore, our results confirm the effects of PA28γ on bone formation and bone defect repair, indicating that PA28γ mainly interacts with Wnt5α to activate the Wnt/β-catenin signaling pathway regulating BMSCs differentiation homeostasis. Our results reveal the function of PA28γ in bone diseases and provide a new theoretical basis for expanding the treatment of bone diseases.

Abstract
Background The use of mesenchymal stem cells (MSCs) for the development of tissue-engineered constructs has advanced in recent years. However, future clinically approved products require following good manufacturing practice (GMP) guidelines. This includes using alternatives to xenogeneic-derived cell culture supplements to avoid rejection of the transplants. Consequently, human platelet lysate (PLT) has been adopted as an affordable and effective alternative to foetal bovine serum (FBS) in traditional 2D cultures. However, little is known about its effect in more advanced 3D culture systems. Methods We evaluated bone marrow MSCs (BMSCs) proliferation and CD marker expression in cells expanded in FBS or PLT-supplemented media. Differentiation capacity of the BMSCs expanded in the presence of the different supplements was evaluated in 3D type I collagen hydrogels. Furthermore, the effects of the supplements on the process of differentiation were analyzed by using qPCR and histological staining. Results Cell proliferation was greater in PLT-supplemented media versus FBS. BMSCs expanded in PLT showed similar osteogenic differentiation capacity in 3D compared with FBS expanded cells. In contrast, when cells were 3D differentiated in PLT they showed lower osteogenesis versus the traditional FBS protocol. This was also the case for adipogenic differentiation, in which FBS supplementation was superior to PLT. Conclusions PLT is a superior alternative to FBS for the expansion of MSCs without compromising their subsequent differentiation capacity in 3D. However, differentiation in PLT is impaired. Thus, PLT can be used to reduce the time required to expand the necessary cell numbers for development of 3D tissue engineered MSC constructs.

[PMID: 37491214 PMCID: PMC10367311 DOI: 10.1186/s12864-023-09441-y] [Citation(s) in RCA: 0] [Impact Index Per Article: 0] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Key Words] [Grants] [Track Full Text] [Journal Information] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 02/04/2023] [Accepted: 06/11/2023] [Indexed: 07/27/2023] Open
Abstract
BACKGROUND Calcific aortic valve disease (CAVD) is a common valve disease with an increasing incidence, but no effective drugs as of yet. With the development of sequencing technology, non-coding RNAs have been found to play roles in many diseases as well as CAVD, but no circRNA/lncRNA-miRNA-mRNA interaction axis has been established. Moreover, valve interstitial cells (VICs) and valvular endothelial cells (VECs) play important roles in CAVD, and CAVD differed between leaflet phenotypes and genders. This work aims to explore the mechanism of circRNA/lncRNA-miRNA-mRNA network in CAVD, and perform subgroup analysis on the important characteristics of CAVD, such as key cells, leaflet phenotypes and genders. RESULTS We identified 158 differentially expressed circRNAs (DEcircRNAs), 397 DElncRNAs, 45 DEmiRNAs and 167 DEmRNAs, and constructed a hsa-circ-0073813/hsa-circ-0027587-hsa-miR-525-5p-SPP1/HMOX1/CD28 network in CAVD after qRT-PCR verification. Additionally, 17 differentially expressed genes (DEGs) in VICs, 9 DEGs in VECs, 7 DEGs between different leaflet phenotypes and 24 DEGs between different genders were identified. Enrichment analysis suggested the potentially important pathways in inflammation and fibro-calcification during the pathogenesis of CAVD, and immune cell patterns in CAVD suggest that M0 macrophages and memory B cells memory were significantly increased, and many genes in immune cells were also differently expressed. CONCLUSIONS The circRNA/lncRNA-miRNA-mRNA interaction axis constructed in this work and the DEGs identified between different characteristics of CAVD provide a direction for a deeper understanding of CAVD and provide possible diagnostic markers and treatment targets for CAVD in the future.

Abstract
Objective Using network pharmacology and molecular docking, we explored the mechanism of Angelicae Pubescentis- (AP-) Herba Taxilli (HT) in the treatment of osteoarthritis (OA). Methods We selected Traditional Chinese Medicine Systems Pharmacology platform (TCMSP) to filtrate the practical components and targets of AP-HT. The disease targets of "osteoarthritis (OA)" were collected by GeneCards, DrugBank, TTD, OMIM, and PharmGKB databases, and the component-target interaction network was established by Cytoscape 3.9.1. Then, we set the protein-protein interaction (PPI) network by the STRING platform and visualized by Cytoscape 3.9.1. We also conducted Gene Ontology (GO) analysis and Kyoto Encyclopedia of Gene and Genome (KEGG) pathway enrichment analysis via the bioinformatics platform. Finally, we performed molecular docking using PyMOL 2.3.0 and AutoDock Vina software. Results 11 potential compounds were selected, and 1007 OA disease targets were collected. Ninety-four main targets of the AP-HT compound in the treatment of OA have been defined. PPI network demonstrated that JUN, RELA, TNF, IL6, MAPK1, TP53, AKT1, FOS, IL10, and MYC might serve as the critical targets of AP-HT for the treatment of OA. Moreover, membrane raft, membrane microdomain, cellular response to chemical stress, and cytokine receptor binding may play essential roles in the treatment of OA via GO analysis. The main functional pathways involved in these critical targets include fluid shear stress and atherosclerosis, lipid and atherosclerosis, IL-17 signaling pathway, age-range signaling pathway in diabetic composites, and TNF signaling pathway via KEGG analysis. The results of molecular docking showed that the critical ingredients of AP-HT had an excellent affinity to related nuclear genes.

TAZ promotes osteogenic differentiation of mesenchymal stem cells line C3H10T1/2, murine multi-lineage cells lines C2C12, and MEFs induced by BMP9. Cell Death Dis 2022; 8:499.

Abstract
Bone morphogenetic protein 9 (BMP9), also named as growth differentiation factor 2 (GDF-2), is the strongest cytokine that promotes osteogenic differentiation in the BMP family, and has broad clinical application value. Nevertheless, the mechanism of BMP9 promotes osteogenic differentiation remain unclear. TAZ, a transcriptional co-activator, has great effects on cell proliferation, differentiation, and stem cell self-renewal. In this research, we investigated the effects of TAZ in BMP9-induced osteogenic differentiation of mesenchymal stem cell line C3H10T1/2 (MSCs) and murine multi-lineage cell lines C2C12 and MEFs (MMCs) and explored its possible mechanisms. This study has found that BMP9 induces the expression of TAZ and promotes its nuclear translocation. Meanwhile, our study found that Ad-TAZ and TM-25659, a TAZ agonist, can enhance the osteogenic differentiation of MSCs and MMCs induced by BMP9. Conversely, Ad-si-TAZ and verteporfin, an inhibitor of TAZ, have the contradictory effect. Likewise, the promotion of TAZ to the BMP9-induced ectopic bone formation in vivo was confirmed by the subcutaneous transplantation of MSCs in nude mice. Furthermore, we have detected that TAZ might increase the levels of the phosphorylation of Smad1/5/8, p38, ERK1/2, and JNK induced by BMP9. Additionally, we also found that TAZ increased the total protein level of β-catenin induced by BMP9. In summary, our results strongly indicated that TAZ will promote the osteogenic differentiation in MSCs and MMCs induced by BMP9 through multiple signal pathways.

Abstract
The development of bioactive materials with good mechanical properties and promotion of stem cell osteogenic differentiation has important application prospects in bone tissue engineering. In this paper, we designed a novel organic‒inorganic composite hydrogel (FPIGP@BGN-Sr) utilizing diacrylated F127 (DA-PF127), β-glycerophosphate-modified polyitaconate (PIGP) and strontium-doped bioactive glass nanoparticles (BGN-Sr) through free radical polymerization and coordination interactions and then evaluated its promoting effect on the osteogenic differentiation of mouse embryonic mesenchymal stem cells in detail. The results showed that the FPIGP@BGN-Sr hydrogel exhibited a controlled storage modulus by changing the amount of BGN-Sr. Notably, the FPIGP@BGN-Sr hydrogel possessed excellent elastic ability with a compressive strain of up to 98.6% and negligible change in mechanical properties after 10 cycles of compression. In addition, the FPIGP@BGN-Sr hydrogel had good cytocompatibility, maintained the activity and proliferation of mouse embryonic mesenchymal stem cells (C3H10T1/2), and effectively enhanced the activity of alkaline phosphatase, osteogenic gene expression and biomineralization ability of the cells. In conclusion, the excellent mechanical properties and osteogenic biological activity of the FPIGP@BGN-Sr hydrogel make it a promising organic‒inorganic composite bioactive material for stem cell-based bone regeneration.

Abstract
Obesogens are defined as chemicals that trigger obesity partially by stimulating adipogenesis. Adipogenesis consists of two successive processes: the adipocyte lineage commitment of pluripotent stem cells and the differentiation of preadipocytes. Compared with the differentiation of preadipocytes, the effects of most environmental obesogens on adipocyte lineage commitment remain largely unknown. In this study, investigations are performed to explore the influences of PBDE 99 on the adipocyte lineage commitment based on C3H10T1/2, which has been widely used as a mesenchymal stem cell (MSC) model. Our results indicated that exposure to PBDE 99 during commitment stage resulted in significant up-regulation of subsequent adipogenesis in C3H10T1/2 MSCs. Interestingly, PBDE 99 did not affect the osteogenesis of C3H10T1/2 MSCs, although the adipogenesis and osteogenesis of MSCs are typically reciprocal. PBDE 99 was further demonstrated to significantly decrease the expression of Pref1, the marker of very early adipose mesenchymal precursor, and its downstream effector, Sox9. This result strongly suggested that PBDE 99 facilitated adipocyte commitment to exert adipogenic effect on C3H10T1/2 MSCs. Mechanistic studies revealed that PBDE 99 efficiently inhibited Hedgehog signaling transduction, a conserved negative regulator of the adipocyte lineage commitment. Furthermore, the effects of PBDE 99 on adipogenesis were abrogated by the co-treatment with SAG, a specific Hedgehog signaling activator, suggesting inhibition of Hedgehog signaling is responsible for the effect of PBDE 99 on adipocyte commitment. Taking together, these results strongly suggested enhanced adipocyte lineage commitment was involved in potential obesogenic effect of PBDE 99, presumably through repressing Hedgehog signalling during commitment stage. Moreover, the results of this study indicated that C3H10T1/2 can be used as a feasible MSCs cell model to evaluate the capabilities of potential obesogens on adipocyte commitment.

Abstract
Nuclear factor erythroid-2-related factor-2 (Nrf2), the major transcriptional regulator in antioxidant response and cellular defense, had the vital effect on regulating osteogenic differentiation. Our previous study revealed that Nrf2 activation was involved in cyclic mechanical stress-stimulated osteogenic differentiation in the human periodontal ligament stem cells (PDLSCs). However, the mechanisms of Nrf2 underlying this process remained unclear. The goal of the study was to explore the mechanisms of Nrf2 in PDLSCs during cyclic mechanical stress-stimulated osteogenic differentiation via the tandem mass tag (TMT)-based liquid chromatography tandem-mass spectrometry (LC-MS/MS) analysis. And we applied tert-Butylhydroquinone (t-BHQ), the Nrf2 activator, to the orthodontic rats and detected the expression levels of the osteogenesis markers by immunohistochemistry (IHC) staining. Our results showed that Nrf2 activation in PDLSCs was involved in cyclic mechanical stress-stimulated osteogenic differentiation via phosphoinositide 3 kinase (PI3K)/protein kinase B (Akt) pathway. The protein-protein interaction between Akt and Nrf2 was detected. And the protein-protein interaction between heme oxygenase 1 (HO1) and superoxide dismutase 2 (SOD2), the downstream antioxidants of Nrf2, was associated with cyclic mechanical stress-stimulated osteogenic differentiation. T-BHQ enhanced the expression levels of the osteogenesis markers in orthodontic rats. Nrf2 might possess the potential to be a feasible molecular target in orthodontics.

Aging (Albany NY) 2021; 13:11336-11351. [PMID: 33833129 PMCID: PMC8109063 DOI: 10.18632/aging.202825] [Citation(s) in RCA: 1] [Impact Index Per Article: 0.3] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Key Words] [Track Full Text] [Download PDF] [Figures] [Journal Information] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 08/18/2020] [Accepted: 01/21/2021] [Indexed: 12/14/2022]
Abstract
This study investigated the effects of transforming growth factor-β1 (TGF-β1) and cyclooxygenase-2 (COX-2) on bone morphogenetic protein 9 (BMP9) in mesenchymal stem cells (MSCs). We found that BMP9 increased mRNA levels of TGF-β1 and COX-2 in C3H10T1/2 cells. BMP9-induced osteogenic markers were enhanced by TGF-β1 and reduced by TGF-βRI-specific inhibitor LY364947. BMP9 increased level of p-Smad2/3, which were either enhanced or reduced by COX-2 and its inhibitor NS398. BMP9-induced osteogenic markers were decreased by NS398 and it was partially reversed by TGF-β1. COX-2 increased BMP9-induced osteogenic marker levels, which almost abolished by LY364947. BMP9-induced bone formation was enhanced by TGF-β1 but reduced by silencing TGF-β1 or COX-2. BMP9’s osteogenic ability was inhibited by silencing COX-2 but partially reversed by TGF-β1. TGF-β1 and COX-2 enhanced activation of p38 signaling, which was induced by BMP9 and reduced by LY364947. The ability of TGF-β1 to increase the BMP9-induced osteogenic markers was reduced by p38-specific inhibitor, while BMP9-induced TGF-β1 expression was reduced by NS398, but enhanced by COX-2. Furthermore, CREB interacted with Smad1/5/8 to regulate TGF-β1 expression in MSCs. These findings suggest that COX-2 overexpression leads to increase BMP9’s osteogenic ability, resulting from TGF-β1 upregulation which then activates p38 signaling in MSCs.

Abstract
Large bone defects face a high risk of pathogen exposure due to open wounds, which leads to high infection rates and delayed bone union. To promote successful repair of infectious bone defects, fabrication of a scaffold with dual functions of osteo-induction and bacterial inhibition is required. This study describes creation of an engineered progenitor cell line (C3H10T1/2) capable of doxycycline (DOX)-mediated release of bone morphogenetic protein-2 (BMP2). Three-dimensional bioprinting technology enabled creation of scaffolds, comprising polycaprolactone/mesoporous bioactive glass/DOX and bioink, containing these engineered cells. In vivo and in vitro experiments confirmed that the scaffold could actively secrete BMP2 to significantly promote osteoblast differentiation and induce ectopic bone formation. Additionally, the scaffold exhibited broad-spectrum antibacterial capacity, thereby ensuring the survival of embedded engineered cells when facing high risk of infection. These findings demonstrated the efficacy of this bioprinted scaffold to release BMP2 in a controlled manner and prevent the occurrence of infection; thus, showing its potential for repairing infectious bone defects. Genetic engineering and 3D bioprinting. Dual-functional. Suitable for infectious bone defect repair.

Abstract
Circular RNA (circRNA) participates in regulation of gene transcription, while estrogen receptor alpha (ERα) and quercetin (QUE) positively regulate bone formation, but little is known about the correlation among circRNA, ERα and QUE. In this experiment, we created an ERα-deficient rBMSC model treated with QUE and evaluated the effects of ERα or QUE on rBMSCs, then analyzed differentially-expressed circRNAs by RNA-Seq and bioinformatics. The results showed that ERα deficiency constrained osteogenic differentiation and stimulated adipocytic differentiation of rBMSCs, while QUE abrogated those effects. We identified 136 differentially-expressed circRNAs in the Lv-shERα group and 120 differentially-expressed circRNAs in the Lv-shERα + QUE group. Thirty-two circRNAs retroregulated by ERα and QUE were involved in Rap1 and Wnt signaling, and four of them together sponged miR-326-5p, the target genes of which are osteogenic and adipogenic differentiation factors. Further study showed that over-expressed miR-326-5p could stimulate osteogenic differentiation, while attenuating adipogenic differentiation of rBMSCs. Therefore, we concluded that ERα and QUE might regulate the differentiation of rBMSCs through the circRNA-miR-326-5p-mRNA axis.

Abstract
OBJECTIVES AF4/FMR2 family member 1 (AFF1), known as a central scaffolding protein of super elongation complex (SEC), regulates gene transcription. We previously reported that AFF1 inhibited osteogenic differentiation of human mesenchymal stromal/stem cells (hMSCs). However, its role in adipogenic differentiation has not been elucidated. MATERIALS AND METHODS hMSCs and 3T3-L1 pre-adipocytes were cultured and induced for adipogenic differentiation. Small interfering RNAs (siRNAs) were applied to deplete AFF1 while lentiviruses expressing HA-Aff1 were used for overexpression. Oil Red O staining, triglyceride (TAG) quantification, quantitative real-time PCR (qPCR), Western blot analysis, immunofluorescence staining, RNA sequencing (RNA-seq) analysis and ChIP-qPCR were performed. To evaluate the adipogenesis in vivo, BALB/c nude mice were subcutaneously injected with Aff1-overexpressed 3T3-L1 pre-adipocytes. RESULTS AFF1 depletion leads to an enhanced adipogenesis in both hMSCs and 3T3-L1 pre-adipocytes. Overexpression of Aff1 in 3T3-L1 cells results in the reduction of adipogenic differentiation and less adipose tissue formation in vivo. Mechanistically, AFF1 binds to the promoter region of Tgm2 gene and regulates its transcription. Overexpression of Tgm2 largely rescues adipogenic differentiation of Aff1-deficient cells. CONCLUSIONS Our data indicate that AFF1 inhibits adipogenic differentiation by regulating the transcription of TGM2.

Abstract
Background High-dose glucocorticoid (GC) therapy always causes osteoporosis partly by inducing osteoblast apoptosis. However, the underlying mechanisms of GC-induced apoptosis remain elusive. Haem oxygenase-1 (HO-1) is a cytoprotective protein that rescues cells from H2O2 or high glucose-induced apoptosis. In bone metabolism, HO-1 also participates in osteoclast and osteoblast differentiation. Objective The present study aimed to investigate the protective role of HO-1 against GC-induced osteoblast apoptosis and to elucidate the underlying mechanism. Methods Mouse osteoblastic MC3T3-E1 cells were treated with dexamethasone (Dex) for 24 h in the presence or absence of cobalt (III) protoporphyrin IX chloride (CoPP, an inducer of HO-1). In some experiments, U0126 was added to the culture 1 h before CoPP treatment. The induction of apoptosis was determined by flow cytometry. Cell viability was evaluated using a cell counting kit-8 (CCK-8) assay. The expression levels of Bax and bcl-2 were measured by real-time polymerase chain reaction and Western blot. HO-1, extracellular signal-regulated kinase (ERK)-1/2 and pERK1/2 protein levels were measured by Western blot analysis. Results Dex promoted apoptosis and inhibited cell viability in MC3T3-E1 cells. In addition, Dex significantly increased Bax expression and reduced Bcl-2 expression. The expression of HO-1 was also reduced after Dex treatment. HO-1 induction by CoPP significantly attenuated Dex-induced apoptosis as evidenced by Annexin V/PI staining. The mRNA expression level of antiapoptotic gene Bcl-2 was also increased after CoPP treatment. Moreover, CoPP treatment increased the phosphorylation of ERK1/2. U0126, an inhibitor of ERK activation, significantly abrogated the protective effects of CoPP. Conclusion Our results demonstrate that HO-1 induction by CoPP can attenuate Dex-induced apoptosis of mouse osteoblastic MC3T3-E1 cells. The antiapoptotic effect of HO-1 induction may be correlated with the activation of ERK1/2 signalling pathway. The translational potential of this article: HO-1 induction by CoPP can prevent GC-induced osteoblast apoptosis. Our findings will highlight the therapeutic potential of HO-1 induction in GC-induced osteoporosis.
