Abstract
Mesenchymal stem cells (MSCs) have promising potential for bone tissue engineering in bone healing and regeneration. They are regarded as such due to their capacity for self-renewal, multiple differentiation, and their ability to modulate the immune response. However, changes in the molecular pathways and transcription factors of MSCs in osteogenesis can lead to bone defects and metabolic bone diseases. DNA methylation is an epigenetic process that plays an important role in the osteogenic differentiation of MSCs by regulating gene expression. An increasing number of studies have demonstrated the significance of DNA methyltransferases (DNMTs), Ten-eleven translocation family proteins (TETs), and MSCs signaling pathways about osteogenic differentiation in MSCs. This review focuses on the progress of research in these areas.

Human breastmilk-derived Bifidobacterium longum subsp. infantis CCFM1269 regulates bone formation by the GH/IGF axis through PI3K/AKT pathway. Gut Microbes 2024; 16:2290344. [PMID: 38116652 PMCID: PMC10761167 DOI: 10.1080/19490976.2023.2290344] [Citation(s) in RCA: 0] [Impact Index Per Article: 0] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Key Words] [MESH Headings] [Track Full Text] [Journal Information] [Submit a Manuscript] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 08/14/2023] [Accepted: 11/27/2023] [Indexed: 12/21/2023] Open
Abstract
Bifidobacterium longum subsp. infantis is a prevalent member of the gut microbiota of breastfed infants. In this study, the effects of human breastmilk-derived B.longum subsp. infantis CCFM1269 on bone formation in developing BALB/c mice were investigated. Newborn female and male mice were assigned to control group (administered saline), CCFM11269 group (administered B. longum subsp. infantis CCFM1269, 1 × 109 CFU/mouse/day) and I5TI group (administered B. longum subsp. infantis I5TI, 1 × 109 CFU/mouse/day) from 1-week-old to 3-, 4- and 5-week old. B. longum subsp. infantis I5TI served as a negative control in this study. The results demonstrated that B. longum subsp. infantis CCFM1269 promoted bone formation in growing mice by modulating the composition of the gut microbiota and metabolites. The expression of genes and proteins in the PI3K/AKT pathway was stimulated by B. longum subsp. infantis CCFM1269 through the GH/IGF-1 axis in growing mice. This finding suggests B. longum subsp. infantis CCFM1269 may be useful for modulating bone metabolism during growth.

Lineage Differentiation Potential of Different Sources of Mesenchymal Stem Cells for Osteoarthritis Knee. Pharmaceuticals (Basel) 2022; 15:ph15040386.

Abstract
Tissue engineering and regenerative medicine (TERM) have paved a way for treating musculoskeletal diseases in a minimally invasive manner. The regenerative medicine cocktail involves the usage of mesenchymal stem/stromal cells (MSCs), either uncultured or culture-expanded cells along with growth factors, cytokines, exosomes, and secretomes to provide a better regenerative milieu in degenerative diseases. The successful regeneration of cartilage depends on the selection of the appropriate source of MSCs, the quality, quantity, and frequency of MSCs to be injected, and the selection of the patient at an appropriate stage of the disease. However, confirmation on the most favorable source of MSCs remains uncertain to clinicians. The lack of knowledge in the current cellular treatment is uncertain in terms of how beneficial MSCs are in the long-term or short-term (resolution of pain) and improved quality of life. Whether MSCs treatments have any superiority, exists due to sources of MSCs utilized in their potential to objectively regenerate the cartilage at the target area. Many questions on source and condition remain unanswered. Hence, in this review, we discuss the lineage differentiation potentials of various sources of MSCs used in the management of knee osteoarthritis and emphasize the role of tissue engineering in cartilage regeneration.

Guo J, Yuan Y, Zhang L, Wang M, Tong X, Liu L, Zhang M, Li H, Chen X, Zou J. Effects of exercise on the expression of long non-coding RNAs in the bone of mice with osteoporosis. Exp Ther Med 2021; 23:70. [PMID: 34934441 PMCID: PMC8649853 DOI: 10.3892/etm.2021.10993] [Citation(s) in RCA: 4] [Impact Index Per Article: 1.3] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Key Words] [Track Full Text] [Download PDF] [Figures] [Journal Information] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 06/23/2021] [Accepted: 09/22/2021] [Indexed: 12/13/2022] Open
Abstract
Physical activity or exercise are known to promote bone formation and decrease bone resorption to maintain skeletal and bone health both in animal models and in humans with osteoporosis. Previous studies have indicated that long non-coding RNAs (lncRNAs) are able to regulate bone metabolism. Therefore, the present study aimed to evaluate whether lncRNAs responded to exercise by regulating the balance of bone metabolism in order to prevent osteoporosis. To meet this end, ovariectomized mice were used in the present study to establish an osteoporosis model. The exercise treatment groups were subjected to 9 weeks of treadmill running exercise in 4 weeks of the operation was performed Femurs were collected to measure bone mineral density, bone mass, bone formation and resorption. The expression levels of lncRNAs were subsequently measured using microarray and gene function analyses. The pairwise comparison results [ovariectomy (OVX) vs. OVX + exercise (EX); OVX vs. SHAM; SHAM vs. SHAM + EX; OVX + EX vs. SHAM + EX] of the gene microarray analysis revealed that the expression of 2,424 lncRNAs (1718 upregulated and 706 downregulated) were significantly altered in the mouse femurs following treadmill running. Gene Ontology (GO) analysis, incorporating the GO annotations ‘biological processes’, ‘molecular function’ and ‘cellular components’, of osteoporosis revealed that the VEGF, mTOR and NF-κB signaling pathways were potential targets of the lncRNAs. Moreover, it was possible to predict the target microRNAs (miRNAs) of six lncRNAs (LOC105246953, LOC102637959, NONMMUT014677, NONMMUT027251, ri|D130079K21|PX00187K16|1491 and NONMMUT006626), which suggested that the underlying mechanism by which lncRNAs respond to exercise involved bone regulation via lncRNA-miRNA sponge adsorption. Overall, these results suggested that the treadmill running exercise did regulate lncRNA expression in the bone, and that this was involved in the prevention of osteoporosis.

Abstract
The human-relevance of an in vitro model is dependent on two main factors-(i) an appropriate human cell source and (ii) a modeling platform that recapitulates human in vivo conditions. Recent years have brought substantial advancements in both these aspects. In particular, mesenchymal stem cells (MSCs) have emerged as a promising cell source, as these cells can differentiate into multiple cell types, yet do not raise the ethical and practical concerns associated with other types of stem cells. In turn, advanced bioengineered in vitro models such as microfluidics, Organs-on-a-Chip, scaffolds, bioprinting and organoids are bringing researchers ever closer to mimicking complex in vivo environments, thereby overcoming some of the limitations of traditional 2D cell cultures. This review covers each of these advancements separately and discusses how the integration of MSCs into novel in vitro platforms may contribute enormously to clinical and fundamental research.
