Cancers (Basel) 2024; 16:302. [PMID: 38254792 PMCID: PMC10813535 DOI: 10.3390/cancers16020302] [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: 11/25/2023] [Revised: 01/03/2024] [Accepted: 01/05/2024] [Indexed: 01/24/2024] Open
Abstract
BACKGROUND The presence of bone invasion in aggressive pituitary adenoma (PA) was found in our previous study, suggesting that PA cells may be involved in the process of osteoclastogenesis. miR-19a (as a key member of the miR-17-92 cluster) has been reported to activate the nuclear factor-кB (NF-кB) pathway and promote inflammation, which could be involved in the process of the bone invasion of pituitary adenoma. METHODS In this work, FISH was applied to detect miR-19a distribution in tissues from patients with PA. A model of bone invasion in PA was established, GH3 cells were transfected with miR-19a mimic, and the grade of osteoclastosis was detected by HE staining. qPCR was performed to determine the expression of miR-19a throughout the course of RANKL-induced osteoclastogenesis. After transfected with a miR-19a mimic, BMMs were treated with RANKL for the indicated time, and the osteoclast marker genes were detected by qPCR and Western Blot. Pit formation and F-actin ring assay were used to evaluate the function of osteoclast. The TargetScan database and GSEA were used to find the potential downstream of miR-19a, which was verified by Co-IP, Western Blot, and EMSA. RESULTS Here, we found that miR-19a expression levels were significantly correlated with the bone invasion of PA, both in clinical samples and animal models. The osteoclast formation prior to bone resorption was dramatically enhanced by miR-19, which was mediated by decreased cylindromatosis (CYLD) expression, increasing the K63 ubiquitination of tumor necrosis factor receptor-associated factor 6 (TRAF6). Consequently, miR-19a promotes osteoclastogenesis by the activation of the downstream NF-кB and mitogen-activated protein kinase (MAPK) pathways. CONCLUSIONS To summarize, the results of this study indicate that PA-derived miR-19a promotes osteoclastogenesis by inhibiting CYLD expression and enhancing the activation of the NF-кB and MAPK pathways.

J Nanobiotechnology 2023; 21:459. [PMID: 38037135 PMCID: PMC10691144 DOI: 10.1186/s12951-023-02201-w] [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: 08/16/2023] [Accepted: 11/07/2023] [Indexed: 12/02/2023] Open
Abstract
OBJECTIVE This study aims to investigate the mechanism by which biomimetic composite hydrogels loaded with bone marrow mesenchymal stem cells (BMSCs) derived microRNA-19b-3p/WWP1 axis through extracellular vesicles (EVs) affect the new bone formation in rat bone defects. METHODS First, synthesize the bionic composite hydrogel Gel-OCS/MBGN. Characterize it through field-emission scanning electron microscopy (FE-SEM), X-ray diffraction (XRD), and FTIR. Then, conduct performance tests such as rheology, dynamic mechanical analysis, in vitro mineralization, and degradation. Rat BMSCs were selected for in vitro cell experiments, and EVs derived from BMSCs were obtained by differential centrifugation. The EVs were loaded onto Gel-OCS/MBGN to obtain Gel-OCS/MBGN@EVs hydrogel. Cell viability and proliferation were detected by live/dead cell staining and CCK-8 assay, respectively. ALP and ARS staining was used to evaluate the osteogenic differentiation of BMSCs. Differential gene expression analysis of osteogenic differentiation was performed using high-throughput sequencing. TargetScan database predicted the binding site between miR-19b-3p and WWP1, and a dual-luciferase reporter assay was performed to confirm the targeting binding site. A rat bone defect model was established, and new bone formation was evaluated by Micro-CT, H&E staining, and Masson's trichrome staining. Immunofluorescence staining and immunohistochemistry were used to detect the expression levels of osteogenic-related factors in rat BMSCs. RT-qPCR and Western blot were used to detect the expression levels of genes and proteins in tissues and cells. RESULT Gel-OCS/MBGN was successfully constructed and loaded with EVs, resulting in Gel-OCS/MBGN@EVs. The in vitro drug release experiment results show that Gel-OCS/MBGN could sustainably release EVs. Further experiments have shown that Gel-OCS/MBGN@EVs could significantly promote the differentiation of BMSCs into osteoblasts. Experiments have shown that WWP1 is a key factor in osteogenic differentiation and is regulated by miR-19b-3p. EVs promote osteogenic differentiation by suppressing WWP1 expression through the transmission of miR-19b-3p. In vivo animal experiments have demonstrated that Gel-OCS/MBGN@EVs significantly promote bone repair in rats with bone defects by regulating the miR-19b-3p/WWP1 signaling axis. CONCLUSION Functional Gel-OCS/MBGN@EVs were obtained by constructing Gel-OCS/MBGN and loading EVs onto it. EVs could deliver miR-19b-3p to BMSCs, inhibit the expression of WWP1, and promote the osteogenic differentiation of BMSCs, ultimately promoting bone regeneration in rats with bone defects.

Abstract
As epigenetic regulators of gene expression, circulating micro-RiboNucleic Acids (miRNAs) have been described in several bone diseases as potential prognostic markers. The aim of our study was to identify circulating miRNAs potentially associated with the severity of osteogenesis imperfecta (OI) in three steps. We have screened by RNA sequencing for the miRNAs that were differentially expressed in sera of a small group of OI patients versus controls and then conducted a validation phase by RT-qPCR analysis of sera of a larger patient population. In the first phase of miROI, we found 79 miRNAs that were significantly differentially expressed. We therefore selected 19 of them as the most relevant. In the second phase, we were able to validate the significant overexpression of 8 miRNAs in the larger OI group. Finally, we looked for a relationship between the level of variation of the validated miRNAs and the clinical characteristics of OI. We found a significant difference in the expression of two microRNAs in those patients with dentinogenesis imperfecta. After reviewing the literature, we found 6 of the 8 miRNAs already known to have a direct action on bone homeostasis. Furthermore, the use of a miRNA-gene interaction prediction model revealed a 100% probability of interaction between 2 of the 8 confirmed miRNAs and COL1A1 and/or COL1A2. This is the first study to establish the miRNA signature in OI, showing a significant modification of miRNA expression potentially involved in the regulation of genes involved in the physiopathology of OI. © 2023 The Authors.

Abstract
Purpose. Inflammation and apoptosis after spinal cord contusion (SCC) are important causes of irreversible spinal cord injury. Interleukin-1β (IL-1β) is a key inflammatory factor that promotes the aggravation of spinal cord contusion. However, the specific role and regulatory mechanism of IL-1β in spinal cord contusion is still unclear. Therefore, this study applied bioinformatics to analyze and mine potential gene targets interlinked with IL-1β, animal experiments and lentiviral interference technology were used to explore whether IL-1β affected the recovery of motor function in spinal cord contusion by interfering with PI3K/AKT1 signaling pathway. Method. This study used bioinformatics to screen and analyze gene targets related to IL-1β. The rat SCC animal model was established by the Allen method, and the Basso Beattie Bresnahan (BBB) score was used to evaluate the motor function of the spinal cord-injured rats. Immunohistochemistry and immunofluorescence were used to localize the expression of IL-1β and AKT1 proteins in spinal cord tissue. Quantitative polymerase chain reaction and Western blot were used to detect the gene and protein expressions of IL-1β, PI3K, and AKT1. RNAi technology was used to construct lentivirus to inhibit the expression of IL-1β, lentiviral interference with IL-1β was used to investigate the effect of IL-1β and AKT1 on the function of spinal cord contusion and the relationship among IL-1β, AKT1, and downstream signaling pathways. Results. Bioinformatics analysis suggested a close relationship between IL-1β and AKT1. Animal experiments have confirmed that IL-1β is closely related to the functional recovery of spinal cord contusion. Firstly, from the phenomenological level, the BBB score decreased after SCC, IL-1β and AKT1 were located in the cytoplasm of neurons in the anterior horn of the spinal cord, and the expression levels of IL-1β gene and protein in the experimental group were higher than those in the sham operation group. At the same time, the expression of AKT1 gene decreased, the results suggested that the increase of IL-1β affected the functional recovery of spinal cord contusion. Secondly, from the functional level, after inhibiting the expression of IL-1β with a lentivirus-mediated method, the BBB score was significantly increased, and the motor function of the spinal cord was improved. Thirdly, from the mechanistic level, bioinformatics analysis revealed the relationship between IL-1β and AKT1. In addition, the experiment further verified that in the PI3K/AKT1 signaling pathway, inhibition of IL-1β expression upregulated AKT1 gene expression, but PI3K expression was unchanged. Conclusion. Inhibition of IL-1β promotes recovery of motor function after spinal cord injury in rats through upregulation of AKT1 expression in the PI3K/AKT1 signaling pathway. Bioinformatics analysis suggested that IL-1β may affect apoptosis and regeneration by inhibiting the expression of AKT1 in the PI3K/AKT1 signaling pathway to regulate the downstream FOXO, mTOR, and GSK3 signaling pathways; thereby hindering the recovery of motor function in rats after spinal cord contusion. It provided a new perspective for clinical treatment of spinal cord contusion in the future.

Abstract
Osteoporotic patients suffer from bone microstructure damage and are prone to fracture and bone defect. Due to the damage of bone healing ability, the bone repair of osteoporotic patients is usually slow. Here we aimed to explore the function and potential molecular mechanism of miR-100 in osteogenic differentiation ability of bone marrow stem cells (BMSCs). Ovariectomy was performed on mice to induce osteoporosis. BMSCs were extracted from normal and ovariectomized (OVX) mice to examine the effect of microRNA (miR)-100 on BMSC osteogenic differentiation. Hematoxylin and eosin (H&E) staining and safranin O-fast green staining assays were performed on femur tissues to reveal pathological changes. The osteogenic differentiation of BMSCs were determined by Alkaline Phosphatase and Alizarin red staining assays. The results showed that miR-100 expression was significantly upregulated in bone tissues and BMSCs from osteoporotic mice. MiR-100 knockdown partially improved osteogenic function of OVX mice-derived BMSCs. Next, mechanistic target of rapamycin kinase (MTOR) was identified as the target downstream miR-100. MiR-100 deficiency can activate the protein kinase B (AKT)/mTOR pathway. MiR-100 controlled the osteogenic function of BMSCs by the AKT/mTOR pathway. Collectively, our findings demonstrate that inhibition of miR-100 facilitates bone regeneration defects of BMSCs in osteoporotic mice through AKT pathway, indicating that miR-100 might be an effective target for the treatment of osteoporotic mandibular injury and bone defect diseases.

Abstract
Background: Periodontitis is a chronic and progressive disease accompanied by bone loss. It is still a challenge to restore the bone structure. The osteogenic differentiation of bone marrow mesenchymal stem cells (BMSCs) plays a decisive role in bone restoration and regeneration. Marine natural products (MNPs) have multiple biological activities, including anti-tumor and anti-inflammatory properties. However, the exploration of MNPs in osteogenesis is far from sufficient. Methods: We obtained a series of derivatives through structural optimization from 4-phenyl-3,4-dihydroquinolin-2(1H)-one alkaloid isolated from Scopulariopsis sp. Some preliminary cytological experiments showed that CHNQD-00603, obtained by adding a methoxy group to the position C3 and a hydroxyl group to the position C4 of 4-phenyl-3,4-dihydroquinolin-2(1H)-one, might promote the osteogenic differentiation of BMSCs. To further investigate the effects of CHNQD-00603 on BMSCs, we performed a CCK-8 assay and qRT-PCR, alkaline phosphatase staining (ALP), and alizarin red S staining to assess the cytotoxicity and the ability of osteogenic differentiation of CHNQD-00603. The autophagy level was assessed and validated by WB, qRT-PCR, and transmission electron microscopy. Then, 3-methyladenine (3-MA) was added to further examine the role of autophagy. Based on the expression of autophagy-related genes, we predicted and examined the potential miRNAs by bioinformatics. Results: CCK-8 assay showed that CHNQD-00603 at 1 µg/ml did not influence BMSCs activity. However, the proliferation rate decreased from the seventh day. qRT-PCR, ALP staining, ALP activity assay, and Alizarin red S staining showed that the best concentration of CHNQD-00603 to promote osteogenic differentiation was 1 µg/ml. Further investigations indicated that CHNQD-00603 activated autophagy, and the inhibition of autophagy by 3-MA attenuated CHNQD-00603-enhanced osteogenic differentiation. Subsequently, the findings from bioinformatics and qRT-PCR indicated that miR-452-3p might be a regulator of autophagy and osteogenesis. Furthermore, we transfected BMSCs with miR-452-3p NC and mimics separately to further determine the function of miR-452-3p. The data showed that the overexpression of miR-452-3p moderated the level of autophagy and osteogenic differentiation of CHNQD-00603-treated BMSCs. Conclusion: Our data suggested that CHNQD-00603 promoted the osteogenic differentiation of BMSCs by enhancing autophagy. Meanwhile, miR-452-3p played a regulatory role in this process.
