Abstract
Aging has been reported to deteriorate the quantity and quality of mesenchymal stem cells (MSCs), which affect their therapeutic use in regenerative medicine. A dearth of age-related stem cell research further restricts their clinical applications. The present study explores the possibility of using MSCs derived from human gingival tissues (GMSCs) for studying their ex vivo growth characteristics and differentiation potential with respect to donor age. GMSCs displayed decreased in vitro adipogenesis and in vitro and in vivo osteogenesis with age, but in vitro neurogenesis remained unaffected. An increased expression of p53 and SIRT1 with donor age was correlated to their ability of eliminating tumorigenic events through apoptosis or autophagy, respectively. Irrespective of donor age, GMSCs displayed effective immunoregulation and regenerative potential in a mouse model of LPS-induced acute lung injury. Thus, we suggest the potential of GMSCs for designing cell-based immunomodulatory therapeutic approaches and their further extrapolation for acute inflammatory conditions such as acute respiratory distress syndrome and COVID-19.

G-quadruplexes Stabilization Upregulates CCN1 and Accelerates Aging in Cultured Cerebral Endothelial Cells. FRONTIERS IN AGING 2022; 2:797562. [PMID: 35822045 PMCID: PMC9261356 DOI: 10.3389/fragi.2021.797562] [Citation(s) in RCA: 0] [Impact Index Per Article: 0] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Key Words] [Grants] [Track Full Text] [Download PDF] [Figures] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 10/18/2021] [Accepted: 12/07/2021] [Indexed: 11/27/2022]
Abstract
Senescence in the cerebral endothelium has been proposed as a mechanism that can drive dysfunction of the cerebral vasculature, which precedes vascular dementia. Cysteine-rich angiogenic inducer 61 (Cyr61/CCN1) is a matricellular protein secreted by cerebral endothelial cells (CEC). CCN1 induces senescence in fibroblasts. However, whether CCN1 contributes to senescence in CEC and how this is regulated requires further study. Aging has been associated with the formation of four-stranded Guanine-quadruplexes (G4s) in G-rich motifs of DNA and RNA. Stabilization of the G4 structures regulates transcription and translation either by upregulation or downregulation depending on the gene target. Previously, we showed that aged mice treated with a G4-stabilizing compound had enhanced senescence-associated (SA) phenotypes in their brains, and these mice exhibited enhanced cognitive deficits. A sequence in the 3'-UTR of the human CCN1 mRNA has the ability to fold into G4s in vitro. We hypothesize that G4 stabilization regulates CCN1 in cultured primary CEC and induces endothelial senescence. We used cerebral microvessel fractions and cultured primary CEC from young (4-months old, m/o) and aged (18-m/o) mice to determine CCN1 levels. SA phenotypes were determined by high-resolution fluorescence microscopy in cultured primary CEC, and we used Thioflavin T to recognize RNA-G4s for fluorescence spectra. We found that cultured CEC from aged mice exhibited enhanced levels of SA phenotypes, and higher levels of CCN1 and G4 stabilization. In cultured CEC, CCN1 induced SA phenotypes, such as SA β-galactosidase activity, and double-strand DNA damage. Furthermore, CCN1 levels were upregulated by a G4 ligand, and a G-rich motif in the 3'-UTR of the Ccn1 mRNA was folded into a G4. In conclusion, we demonstrate that CCN1 can induce senescence in cultured primary CEC, and we provide evidence that G4 stabilization is a novel mechanism regulating the SASP component CCN1.

Abstract
Bone marrow (BM) is a reliable source of multipotent mesenchymal stromal cells (MSCs), which have been successfully used for treating osteonecrosis. Considering the functional advantages of BM-MSCs as bone and cartilage reparatory cells and supporting angiogenesis, several donor-related factors are also essential to consider when autologous BM-MSCs are used for such regenerative therapies. Aging is one of several factors contributing to the donor-related variability and found to be associated with a reduction of BM-MSC numbers. However, even within the same age group, other factors affecting MSC quantity and function remain incompletely understood. For patients with osteonecrosis, several underlying factors have been linked to the decrease of the proliferation of BM-MSCs as well as the impairment of their differentiation, migration, angiogenesis-support and immunoregulatory functions. This review discusses the quality and quantity of BM-MSCs in relation to the etiological conditions of osteonecrosis such as sickle cell disease, Gaucher disease, alcohol, corticosteroids, Systemic Lupus Erythematosus, diabetes, chronic renal disease and chemotherapy. A clear understanding of the regenerative potential of BM-MSCs is essential to optimize the cellular therapy of osteonecrosis and other bone damage conditions.

Abstract
Bone marrow-derived mesenchymal stem cells (BMSCs) have the potential to differentiate into osteoblasts or adipocytes, and an imbalance between adipogenesis and osteogenesis causes age-related bone loss. In this study, we determined the influence of tumor necrosis factor receptor-associated factor 3 (TRAF3) on senescence and osteoblastic and adipocytic differentiation of rat BMSCs. TRAF3 expression increased during osteogenic differentiation but decreased during adipocytic differentiation of rat BMSCs, and compared with day 0 cultures, on day 14, the differences were significant. Overexpression of TRAF3 significantly promoted BMSC osteogenic differentiation and suppressed adipogenic differentiation and senescence. Furthermore, Traf3 was determined to be a target gene of miR-363-3p in BMSCs, and TRAF3 expression in BMSCs was reduced by miR-363-3p overexpression. This overexpression attenuated the effects of TRAF3 on BMSC adipogenic differentiation, osteogenic differentiation, and senescence. Taken together, these results uncovered the mechanism by which TRAF3 promotes BMSC osteogenic differentiation and suppresses adipogenic differentiation and senescence, indicating that the miR-363-3p-TRAF3 axis might be a novel therapeutic target for BMSC-based bone tissue engineering in osteoporosis.

Abstract
Aberrant microRNA expression correlates with age-related osteoporosis, which impairs bone formation by regulating osteoblastic activity, thus leading to age-related bone loss. In this study, we observed that miR-384-5p was significantly upregulated in bone marrow mesenchymal stem cells (BMSCs) from aged rats compared with BMSCs from young rats. In vitro functional assays revealed that overexpression of miR-384-5p in young BMSCs inhibited osteogenic differentiation and accelerated senescence, whereas knockdown of miR-384-5p in aged BMSCs had the opposite effects. Furthermore, we demonstrated that miR-384-5p inhibited the expression of Gli2 at both the mRNA and protein levels by directly binding to the 3' untranslated region of Gli2 mRNA. The osteogenic capacity of Gli2-knockdown BMSCs was rejuvenated by miR-384-5p inhibition. Finally, in vivo assays showed that the inhibition of miR-384-5p prevented bone loss and increased the osteogenic capacity in aged rats. Overall, our study suggests that miR-384-5p functions as a negative regulator of osteogenesis, indicating that the inhibition of miR-384-5p may be a therapeutic strategy against age-related bone loss.

Abstract
Aims Chronic and excessive alcohol consumption is a high-risk factor for osteoporosis. Bone marrow-derived mesenchymal stem cells (BM-MSCs) play an important role in bone formation; however, they are vulnerable to ethanol (EtOH). The purpose of this research was to investigate whether EtOH could induce premature senescence in BM-MSCs and subsequently impair their osteogenic potential. Methods Human BM-MSCs were exposed to EtOH ranging from 10 to 250 mM. Senescence-associated β-galactosidase (SA-β-gal) activity, cell cycle distribution, cell proliferation and reactive oxygen species (ROS) were evaluated. Mineralization and osteoblast-specific gene expression were evaluated during osteogenesis in EtOH-treated BM-MSCs. To investigate the role of silent information regulator Type 1 (SIRT1) in EtOH-induced senescence, resveratrol (ResV) was used to activate SIRT1 in EtOH-treated BM-MSCs. Results EtOH treatments resulted in senescence-associated phenotypes in BM-MSCs, such as decreased cell proliferation, increased SA-β-gal activity and G0/G1 cell cycle arrest. EtOH also increased the intracellular ROS and the expression of senescence-related genes, such as p16INK4α and p21. The down-regulated levels of SIRT1 accompanied with suppressed osteogenic differentiation were confirmed in EtOH-treated BM-MSCs. Activation of SIRT1 by ResV partially counteracted the effects of EtOH by decreasing senescence markers and rescuing the inhibited osteogenesis. Conclusion EtOH treatments induced premature senescence in BM-MSCs in a dose-dependent manner that was responsible for EtOH-impaired osteogenic differentiation. Activation of SIRT1 was effective in ameliorating EtOH-induced senescence phenotypes in BMSCs and could potentially lead to a new strategy for clinically preventing or treating alcohol-induced osteoporosis. Short summary Ethanol (EtOH) treatments induce premature senescence in marrow-derived mesenchymal stem cells in a dose-dependent manner that is responsible for EtOH-impaired osteogenic differentiation. Activation of SIRT1 is effective in ameliorating EtOH-induced senescence phenotypes, which potentially leads to a new strategy for clinically treating alcohol-induced osteoporosis.
