Cao Z, Zhu Y, Li Y, Yuan Z, Han B, Guo Y. The mechanical regulatory role of ATP13a3 in osteogenic differentiation of pre-osteoblasts. Adv Med Sci 2024; 69:339-348. [PMID: 39004219 DOI: 10.1016/j.advms.2024.07.003] [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: 12/20/2023] [Revised: 02/24/2024] [Accepted: 07/06/2024] [Indexed: 07/16/2024]
Abstract
PURPOSE The process of osteogenic differentiation hinges upon the pivotal role of mechanical signals. Previous studies found that mechanical tensile strain of 2500 microstrain (με) at a frequency of 0.5 Hz promoted osteogenesis in vitro. However, the mechanism of the mechanical strain influencing osteogenesis at the cellular and molecular levels are not yet fully understood. This study aimed to explore the mechanism of mechanical strain on osteogenic differentiation of MC3T3-E1 cells. MATERIALS AND METHODS Proteomics analysis was conducted to explore the mechanical strain that significantly impacted the protein expression. Bioinformatics identified important mechanosensitive proteins and the expression of genes was investigated using real-time PCR. The dual-luciferase assay revealed the relationship between the miRNA and its target gene. Overexpression and downexpression of the gene, to explore its role in mechanically induced osteogenic differentiation and transcriptomics, revealed further mechanisms in this process. RESULTS Proteomics and bioinformatics identified an important mechanosensitive lowexpression protein ATP13A3, and the expression of Atp13a3 gene was also reduced. The dual-luciferase assay revealed that microRNA-3070-3p (miR-3070-3p) targeted the Atp13a3 gene. Furthermore, the downexpression of Atp13a3 promoted the expression levels of osteogenic differentiation-related genes and proteins, and this process was probably mediated by the tumor necrosis factor (TNF) signaling pathway. CONCLUSION Atp13a3 responded to mechanical tensile strain to regulate osteogenic differentiation, and the TNF signaling pathway regulated by Atp13a3 was probably involved in this process. These novel insights suggested that Atp13a3 was probably a potential osteogenesis and bone formation regulator.

Biomed Eng Online 2024; 23:44. [PMID: 38705993 PMCID: PMC11070085 DOI: 10.1186/s12938-024-01237-9] [Citation(s) in RCA: 0] [Impact Index Per Article: 0] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Key Words] [MESH Headings] [Grants] [Track Full Text] [Journal Information] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 01/25/2024] [Accepted: 04/11/2024] [Indexed: 05/07/2024] Open
Abstract
BACKGROUND Osteocytes are critical mechanosensory cells in bone, and mechanically stimulated osteocytes produce exosomes that can induce osteogenesis. MicroRNAs (miRNAs) are important constituents of exosomes, and some miRNAs in osteocytes regulate osteogenic differentiation; previous studies have indicated that some differentially expressed miRNAs in mechanically strained osteocytes likely influence osteoblastic differentiation. Therefore, screening and selection of miRNAs that regulate osteogenic differentiation in exosomes of mechanically stimulated osteocytes are important. RESULTS A mechanical tensile strain of 2500 με at 0.5 Hz 1 h per day for 3 days, elevated prostaglandin E2 (PGE2) and insulin-like growth factor-1 (IGF-1) levels and nitric oxide synthase (NOS) activity of MLO-Y4 osteocytes, and promoted osteogenic differentiation of MC3T3-E1 osteoblasts. Fourteen miRNAs differentially expressed only in MLO-Y4 osteocytes which were stimulated with mechanical tensile strain, were screened, and the miRNAs related to osteogenesis were identified. Four differentially expressed miRNAs (miR-1930-3p, miR-3110-5p, miR-3090-3p, and miR-3058-3p) were found only in mechanically strained osteocytes, and the four miRNAs, eight targeted mRNAs which were differentially expressed only in mechanically strained osteoblasts, were also identified. In addition, the mechanically strained osteocyte-derived exosomes promoted the osteoblastic differentiation of MC3T3-E1 cells in vitro, the exosomes were internalized by osteoblasts, and the up-regulated miR-3110-5p and miR-3058-3p in mechanically strained osteocytes, were both increased in the exosomes, which was verified via reverse transcription quantitative polymerase chain reaction (RT-qPCR). CONCLUSIONS In osteocytes, a mechanical tensile strain of 2500 με at 0.5 Hz induced the fourteen differentially expressed miRNAs which probably were in exosomes of osteocytes and involved in osteogenesis. The mechanically strained osteocyte-derived exosomes which contained increased miR-3110-5p and miR-3058-3p (two of the 14 miRNAs), promoted osteoblastic differentiation.

Anderson H, Hersh DS, Khan Y. The potential role of mechanotransduction in the management of pediatric calvarial bone flap repair. Biotechnol Bioeng 2024; 121:39-52. [PMID: 37668193 PMCID: PMC10841298 DOI: 10.1002/bit.28534] [Citation(s) in RCA: 0] [Impact Index Per Article: 0] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Key Words] [MESH Headings] [Grants] [Track Full Text] [Journal Information] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 03/28/2023] [Revised: 06/30/2023] [Accepted: 08/05/2023] [Indexed: 09/06/2023]
Abstract
Pediatric patients suffering traumatic brain injuries may require a decompressive craniectomy to accommodate brain swelling by removing a portion of the skull. Once the brain swelling subsides, the preserved calvarial bone flap is ideally replaced as an autograft during a cranioplasty to restore protection of the brain, as it can reintegrate and grow with the patient during immature skeletal development. However, pediatric patients exhibit a high prevalence of calvarial bone flap resorption post-cranioplasty, causing functional and cosmetic morbidity. This review examines possible solutions for mitigating pediatric calvarial bone flap resorption by delineating methods of stimulating mechanosensitive cell populations with mechanical forces. Mechanotransduction plays a critical role in three main cell types involved with calvarial bone repair, including mesenchymal stem cells, osteoblasts, and dural cells, through mechanisms that could be exploited to promote osteogenesis. In particular, physiologically relevant mechanical forces, including substrate deformation, external forces, and ultrasound, can be used as tools to stimulate bone repair in both in vitro and in vivo systems. Ultimately, combating pediatric calvarial flap resorption may require a combinatorial approach using both cell therapy and bioengineering strategies.

Abstract
Human in vitro bone remodeling models, using osteoclast-osteoblast cocultures, can facilitate the investigation of human bone remodeling while reducing the need for animal experiments. Although current in vitro osteoclast-osteoblast cocultures have improved the understanding of bone remodeling, it is still unknown which culture conditions support both cell types. Therefore, in vitro bone remodeling models can benefit from a thorough evaluation of the impact of culture variables on bone turnover outcomes, with the aim to reach balanced osteoclast and osteoblast activity, mimicking healthy bone remodeling. Using a resolution III fractional factorial design, the main effects of commonly used culture variables on bone turnover markers in an in vitro human bone remodeling model are identified. This model is able to capture physiological quantitative resorption-formation coupling along all conditions. Culture conditions of two runs show promising results: conditions of one run can be used as a high bone turnover system and conditions of another run as a self-regulating system as the addition of osteoclastic and osteogenic differentiation factors is not required for remodeling. The results generated with this in vitro model allow for better translation between in vitro studies and in vivo studies, toward improved preclinical bone remodeling drug development.

Abstract
BACKGROUND This study aimed to investigate the effect of the vibration of osteoblasts on the cell cycle, cell differentiation, and aging. MATERIALS AND METHODS Primary maxilla osteoblasts harvested from eight-week-old mice were subjected to vibration at 3, 30, and 300 Hz once daily for 30 min; control group, 0 Hz. A cell proliferation assay and Cell-Clock Cell Cycle Assay were performed 24 h after vibration. Osteoblast differentiation assay, aging marker genes, SA-β-Gal activity, and telomere length (qPCR) were assayed two weeks post- vibration once every two days. RESULTS Cell proliferation increased significantly at 30 and 300 Hz rather than 0 Hz. Several cells were in the late G2/M stage of the cell cycle at 30 Hz. The osteoblast differentiation assay was significantly higher at 30 Hz than at 0 Hz. Runx2 mRNA was downregulated at 30 Hz compared to that at 0 Hz, while osteopontin, osteocalcin, and sclerostin mRNA were upregulated. p53/p21, p16, and c-fos were activated at 30 Hz. SA-β-Gal activity increased significantly at 30 or 300 Hz. Telomere length was significantly lower at 30 or 300 Hz. CONCLUSIONS The results suggest that providing optimal vibration to osteoblasts promotes cell cycle progression and differentiation and induces cell aging.

Abstract
Mechanical force regulates bone density, modeling, and homeostasis. Substantial periosteal bone formation is generated by external mechanical stimuli, yet its mechanism is poorly understood. Here, it is shown that myeloid-lineage cells differentiate into subgroups and regulate periosteal bone formation in response to mechanical loading. Mechanical loading on tibiae significantly increases the number of periosteal myeloid-lineage cells and the levels of active transforming growth factor β (TGF-β), resulting in cortical bone formation. Knockout of Tgfb1 in myeloid-lineage cells attenuates mechanical loading-induced periosteal bone formation in mice. Moreover, CD68+ F4/80+ macrophages, a subtype of myeloid-lineage cells, express and activate TGF-β1 for recruitment of osteoprogenitors. Particularly, mechanical loading induces the differentiation of periosteal CD68+ F4/80- myeloid-lineage cells to the CD68+ F4/80+ macrophages via signaling of piezo-type mechanosensitive ion channel component 1 (Piezo1) for TGF-β1 secretion. Importantly, CD68+ F4/80+ macrophages activate TGF-β1 by expression and secretion of thrombospondin-1 (Thbs1). Administration of Thbs1 inhibitor significantly impairs loading-induced TGF-β activation and recruitment of osteoprogenitors in the periosteum. The results suggest that periosteal myeloid-lineage cells respond to mechanical forces and consequently produce and activate TGF-β1 for periosteal bone formation.

Axial mechanical loading to ex vivo mouse long bone regulates endochondral ossification and endosteal mineralization through activation of the BMP-Smad pathway during postnatal growth. Bone Rep 2021; 15:101088. [PMID: 34141832 PMCID: PMC8188257 DOI: 10.1016/j.bonr.2021.101088] [Citation(s) in RCA: 6] [Impact Index Per Article: 2.0] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Key Words] [Track Full Text] [Download PDF] [Figures] [Journal Information] [Submit a Manuscript] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 12/03/2020] [Revised: 03/19/2021] [Accepted: 05/01/2021] [Indexed: 01/12/2023] Open
Abstract
Mechanical loading contributes to bone development, growth, and metabolism. However, the mechanisms underlying long bone mineralization via changes in loading during the growth period are unclear. The aim of the present study was to investigate the regulatory mechanisms underlying endochondral ossification and endosteal mineralization by developing an ex vivo organ culture model with cyclic axial mechanical loads. The metacarpal bones of 3-week-old C57BL/6 mice were exposed to mechanical loading (0, 7.8, and 78 mN) for 1 h/day for 4 days. Histomorphometry revealed that axial mechanical loading regulated the thickness of the calcified zone in the growth plate and endosteal mineralization in the diaphysis in a load-dependent manner. Mechanical loading also resulted in load-dependent upregulation of endochondral ossification and bone mineralization-related genes, including bone morphogenetic protein 2 (Bmp2). Recombinant human BMP-2 administration caused similar changes in tissue structures. Conversely, inhibition of the BMP-Smad pathway diminished the stimulatory effects of mechanical loading and BMP-2 administration, suggesting that the effects of mechanical loading may be exerted through activation of the BMP-Smad pathway with the results of gene ontology and pathway analyses. Mechanical loading increased alkaline phosphatase activity and decreased carbonic anhydrase IX (Car9) mRNA expression, resulting in a significant pH increase in the culture supernatant. We hypothesize that, through activation of the BMP-Smad pathway, mechanical loading downregulates Car9, which may alkalize the local milieu, thereby inducing bone formation and long bone mineralization. Our results showed that cyclic axial mechanical loading increased endochondral ossification and endosteal mineralization in developing mouse long bones, which may have resulted from changes in the pH, ALP activity, and Pi/PPi of the extracellular environment. These findings advance our understanding of the regulation of mineralization mechanisms by mechanical loading mediated through activation of the BMP-Smad pathway.

Abstract
BACKGROUND Distraction osteogenesis (DO) is a functional tissue engineering approach that applies gradual mechanical traction on the bone tissues after osteotomy to stimulate bone regeneration. However, DO still has disadvantages that limit its clinical use, including long treatment duration. METHODS Review the current methods of promoting bone formation and consolidation in DO with particular interest on biometal. RESULTS Numerous approaches, including physical therapy, gene therapy, growth factor-based therapy, stem-cell-based therapy, and improved distraction devices, have been explored to reduce the DO treatment duration with some success. Nevertheless, no approach to date is widely accepted in clinical practice due to various reasons, such as high expense, short biologic half-life, and lack of effective delivery methods. Biometals, including calcium (Ca), magnesium (Mg), zinc (Zn), copper (Cu), manganese (Mn), and cobalt (Co) have attracted attention in bone regeneration attributed to their biodegradability and bioactive components released during in vivo degradation. CONCLUSION This review summarizes the current therapies accelerating bone formation in DO and the beneficial role of biometals in bone regeneration, particularly focusing on the use of biometal Mg and its alloy in promoting bone formation in DO. Translational potential: The potential clinical applications using Mg-based devices to accelerate DO are promising. Mg stimulates expression of multiple intrinsic biological factors and the development of Mg as an implantable component in DO may be used to argument bone formation and consolidation in DO.

Abstract
Since the cell was discovered by humans, it has been an important research subject for researchers. The mechanical response of cells to external stimuli and the biomechanical response inside cells are of great significance for maintaining the life activities of cells. These biomechanical behaviors have wide applications in the fields of disease research and micromanipulation. In order to study the mechanical behavior of single cells, various cell mechanics models have been proposed. In addition, the measurement technologies of single cells have been greatly developed. These models, combined with experimental techniques, can effectively explain the biomechanical behavior and reaction mechanism of cells. In this review, we first introduce the basic concept and biomechanical background of cells, then summarize the research progress of internal force models and experimental techniques in the field of cell mechanics and discuss the latest mechanical models and experimental methods. We summarize the application directions of cell mechanics and put forward the future perspectives of a cell mechanics model.

Kelder C, Kleverlaan CJ, Gilijamse M, Bakker AD, de Vries TJ. Cells Derived from Human Long Bone Appear More Differentiated and More Actively Stimulate Osteoclastogenesis Compared to Alveolar Bone-Derived Cells. Int J Mol Sci 2020; 21:ijms21145072. [PMID: 32709153 PMCID: PMC7404058 DOI: 10.3390/ijms21145072] [Citation(s) in RCA: 7] [Impact Index Per Article: 1.8] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Key Words] [MESH Headings] [Track Full Text] [Download PDF] [Figures] [Journal Information] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 06/17/2020] [Revised: 07/11/2020] [Accepted: 07/16/2020] [Indexed: 02/07/2023] Open
Abstract
Osteoblasts derived from mouse skulls have increased osteoclastogenic potential compared to long bone osteoblasts when stimulated with 1,25(OH)2 vitamin D3 (vitD3). This indicates that bone cells from specific sites can react differently to biochemical signals, e.g., during inflammation or as emitted by bioactive bone tissue-engineering constructs. Given the high turn-over of alveolar bone, we hypothesized that human alveolar bone-derived osteoblasts have an increased osteogenic and osteoclastogenic potential compared to the osteoblasts derived from long bone. The osteogenic and osteoclastogenic capacity of alveolar bone cells and long bone cells were assessed in the presence and absence of osteotropic agent vitD3. Both cell types were studied in osteogenesis experiments, using an osteogenic medium, and in osteoclastogenesis experiments by co-culturing osteoblasts with peripheral blood mononuclear cells (PBMCs). Both osteogenic and osteoclastic markers were measured. At day 0, long bones seem to have a more late-osteoblastic/preosteocyte-like phenotype compared to the alveolar bone cells as shown by slower proliferation, the higher expression of the matrix molecule Osteopontin (OPN) and the osteocyte-enriched cytoskeletal component Actin alpha 1 (ACTA1). This phenotype was maintained during the osteogenesis assays, where long bone-derived cells still expressed more OPN and ACTA1. Under co-culture conditions with PBMCs, long bone cells also had a higher Tumor necrose factor-alfa (TNF-α) expression and induced the formation of osteoclasts more than alveolar bone cells. Correspondingly, the expression of osteoclast genes dendritic cell specific transmembrane protein (DC-STAMP) and Receptor activator of nuclear factor kappa-Β ligand (RankL) was higher in long bone co-cultures. Together, our results indicate that long bone-derived osteoblasts are more active in bone-remodeling processes, especially in osteoclastogenesis, than alveolar bone-derived cells. This indicates that tissue-engineering solutions need to be specifically designed for the site of application, such as defects in long bones vs. the regeneration of alveolar bone after severe periodontitis.

J Tissue Eng Regen Med 2019; 13:946-959.

Abstract
Bilayer hydrogels with a soft cartilage-like layer and a stiff bone-like layer embedded with human mesenchymal stem cells (hMSCs) are promising for osteochondral tissue engineering. The goals of this work were to evaluate the effects of dynamic compressive loading (2.5% applied strain, 1 Hz) on osteogenesis in the stiff layer and spatially map local mechanical responses (strain, stress, hydrostatic pressure, and fluid velocity). A bilayer hydrogel was fabricated from soft (24 kPa) and stiff (124 kPa) poly (ethylene glycol) hydrogels. With hMSCs embedded in the stiff layer, osteogenesis was delayed under loading evident by lower OSX and OPN expressions, alkaline phosphatase activity, and collagen content. At Day 28, mineral deposits were present throughout the stiff layer without loading but localized centrally and near the interface under loading. Local strains mapped by particle tracking showed substantial equivalent strain (~1.5%) transferring to the stiff layer. When hMSCs were cultured in stiff single-layer hydrogels subjected to similar strains, mineralization was inhibited. Finite element analysis revealed that hydrostatic pressures ≥~600 Pa correlated to regions lacking mineralization in both hydrogels. Fluid velocities were low (~1-10 nm/s) in the hydrogels with no apparent correlation to mineralization. Mineralization was recovered by inhibiting ERK1/2, indicating cell-mediated inhibition. These findings suggest that high strains (~1.5%) combined with higher hydrostatic pressures negatively impact osteogenesis, but in a manner that depends on the magnitude of each mechanical response. This work highlights the importance of local mechanical responses in mediating osteogenesis of hMSCs in bilayer hydrogels being studied for osteochondral tissue engineering.

Abstract
Mechanical stress maintains tissue homeostasis by regulating many cellular functions including cell proliferation, differentiation, and inflammation and immune responses. In inflammatory microenvironments, macrophages in mechanosensitive tissues receive mechanical signals that regulate various cellular functions and inflammatory responses. Macrophage function is affected by several types of mechanical stress, but the mechanisms by which mechanical signals influence macrophage function in inflammation, such as the regulation of interleukin-1β by inflammasomes, remain unclear. In this review, we describe the role of mechanical stress in macrophage and monocyte cell function.

Abstract
This study aimed to analyze if the sensory neuropeptide SP (SP) and the neurokinin receptor 1 (NK1R) are involved in macrophage mechano-transduction, similar to chondrocytes, and if alpha-calcitonin gene-related peptide (αCGRP) and the CGRP receptor (CRLR/Ramp1) show comparable activity. Murine RAW264.7 macrophages were subjected to a cyclic stretch for 1–3 days and 4 h/day. Loading and neuropeptide effects were analyzed for gene and protein expression of neuropeptides and their receptors, adhesion, apoptosis, proliferation and ROS activity. Murine bone marrow-derived macrophages (BMM) were isolated after surgical osteoarthritis (OA) induction and proliferation, apoptosis and osteoclastogenesis were analyzed in response to loading. Loading induced NK1R and CRLR/Ramp1 gene expression and altered protein expression in RAW264.7 macrophages. SP protein and mRNA level decreased after loading whereas αCGRP mRNA expression was stabilized. SP reduced adhesion in loaded RAW264.7 macrophages and both neuropeptides initially increased the ROS activity followed by a time-dependent suppression. OA induction sensitized BMM to caspase 3/7 mediated apoptosis after loading. Both sensory neuropeptides, SP and αCGRP, and their receptors are involved in murine macrophage mechano-transduction affecting neuropeptide impact on adhesion and ROS activity. OA induction altered BMM apoptosis in response to loading indicate that OA-associated biomechanical alterations might affect the macrophage population.

Abstract
Bone remodeling is strongly linked to external mechanical signals. Such stimuli are widely used in vitro for bone tissue engineering by applying mechanical solicitations to cell cultures so as to trigger specific cell responses. However, the literature highlights considerable variability in devices and protocols. Here the major biological, mechanical, and technical parameters implemented for in vitro tensile loading applications are reviewed. The objective is to identify which values are used most, and whether there is an optimal protocol to obtain a functional tissue-engineering construct. First, a shift that occurred from fundamental comprehension of bone formation, to its application in rebuilt tissues and clinical fields is shown. Despite the lack of standardized protocols, consensual conditions relevant for in vitro bone development, in particular cell differentiation, could be highlighted. Culture processes are guided by physiological considerations, although out-of-range conditions are sometimes used without implying negative results for the development of rebuilt tissue. Consensus can be found on several parameters, such as strain frequency (1 Hz) or the use of rest periods, but other points have not yet been fully established, especially synergies with other solicitations. It is believed that the present work will be useful to develop new tissue-engineering processes based on stretching.
