Nitrogen-Containing Bisphosphonates Downregulate Cathepsin K and Upregulate Annexin V in Osteoclasts Cultured In Vitro. Int J Dent 2023; 2023:2960941. [PMID: 36866025 PMCID: PMC9974278 DOI: 10.1155/2023/2960941] [Citation(s) in RCA: 0] [Impact Index Per Article: 0] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Track Full Text] [Figures] [Journal Information] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 09/27/2022] [Revised: 01/12/2023] [Accepted: 01/19/2023] [Indexed: 02/23/2023] Open
Abstract
Introduction Bisphosphonates are widely used in the treatment of osteoporosis; however, they are associated with the serious adverse event of bisphosphonate-related osteonecrosis of the jaw (BRONJ). Aim The aim of this study is to assess the effects of nitrogen-containing bisphosphonates (N-PHs) on the synthesis of IL-1β, TNF-α, sRANKL, cathepsin K, and annexin V in bone cells cultured in vitro. Materials and Methods Osteoblasts and bone marrow-derived osteoclasts were cultured in vitro, subjected to treatment with alendronate, risedronate, or ibandronate at a concentration of 10-5 M for 0 to 96 h and then assayed for IL-1β, sRANKL, and TNF-α production by ELISA. Cathepsin K and Annexin V-FITC staining in osteoclasts were assessed by flow cytometry. Results There was significant downregulation of IL-1β, sRANKL, and TNF-α in experimental osteoblasts compared to control cells, and there was upregulation of IL-1β and downregulation of RANKL and TNF-α in experimental osteoclasts. Furthermore, in osteoclasts, cathepsin K expression was downregulated at 48-72 h with alendronate treatment, while risedronate treatment resulted in upregulated annexin V expression at 48 h compared to the control treatment. Conclusion Bisphosphonates added to bone cells inhibited osteoclastogenesis, which led to the downregulation of cathepsin K and induction of apoptosis in osteoclasts; these changes limited the capacity of bone remodelling and healing that may contribute to BRONJ induced by surgical dental procedures.

Abstract
Cardiovascular disease (CVD) is defined as a class of disorders affecting the heart and blood vessels. Cardiomyocytes and endothelial cells play important roles in cardiac regeneration and heart repair. However, the proliferating capacity of cardiomyocytes is limited. To overcome this issue, mesenchymal stem cells (MSCs) have emerged as an alternative strategy for CVD therapy. MSCs can proliferate and differentiate (or trans-differentiate) into cardiomyocytes. Several in vitro and in vivo differentiation protocols have been used to obtain MSCs-derived cardiomyocytes. It was recently investigated that microRNAs (miRNAs) by targeting several signaling pathways, including STAT3, Wnt/β-catenin, Notch, and TBX5, play a crucial role in regulating cardiomyocytes' differentiation of MSCs. In this review, we focused on the role of miRNAs in the differentiation of MSCs into cardiomyocytes.

Abstract
Cardiomyocyte differentiation occurs through complex and finely regulated processes including cardiac lineage commitment and maturation from pluripotent stem cells (PSCs). To gain some insight into the genome-wide characteristics of cardiac lineage commitment, we performed transcriptome analysis on both mouse embryonic stem cells (mESCs) and human induced PSCs (hiPSCs) at specific stages of cardiomyocyte differentiation. Specifically, the gene expression profiles and the protein–protein interaction networks of the mESC-derived platelet-derived growth factor receptor-alpha (PDGFRα)+ cardiac lineage-committed cells (CLCs) and hiPSC-derived kinase insert domain receptor (KDR)+ and PDGFRα+ cardiac progenitor cells (CPCs) at cardiac lineage commitment were compared with those of mesodermal cells and differentiated cardiomyocytes. Gene Ontology and Kyoto Encyclopedia of Genes and Genomes pathway analyses revealed that the genes significantly upregulated at cardiac lineage commitment were associated with responses to organic substances and external stimuli, extracellular and myocardial contractile components, receptor binding, gated channel activity, PI3K‑AKT signaling, and cardiac hypertrophy and dilation pathways. Protein–protein interaction network analysis revealed that the expression levels of genes that regulate cardiac maturation, heart contraction, and calcium handling showed a consistent increase during cardiac differentiation; however, the expression levels of genes that regulate cell differentiation and multicellular organism development decreased at the cardiac maturation stage following lineage commitment. Additionally, we identified for the first time the protein–protein interaction network connecting cardiac development, the immune system, and metabolism during cardiac lineage commitment in both mESC-derived PDGFRα+ CLCs and hiPSC-derived KDR+PDGFRα+ CPCs. These findings shed light on the regulation of cardiac lineage commitment and the pathogenesis of cardiometabolic diseases.

Abstract
Background and Objectives To seek out the role of mircoRNA (miR)-324-5p-modified adipose-derived stem cells (ADSCs) in post-myocardial infarction (MI) myocardial repair. Methods and Results Rat ADSCs were cultivated and then identified by morphologic observation, osteogenesis and adipogenesis induction assays and flow cytometry. Afterwards, ADSCs were modified by miR-324-5p lentiviral vector, with ADSC proliferation and migration measured. Then, rat MI model was established, which was treated by ADSCs or miR-324-5p-modified ADSCs. Subsequently, the function of miR-324-5p-modified ADSCs in myocardial repair of MI rats was assessed through functional assays. Next, the binding relation of miR-324-5p and Toll-interacting protein (TOLLIP) was validated. Eventually, functional rescue assay of TOLLIP was performed to verify the role of TOLLIP in MI. First, rat ADSCs were harvested. Overexpressed miR-324-5p improved ADSC viability. ADSC transplantation moderately enhanced cardiac function of MI rats, reduced enzyme levels and decreased infarct size and apoptosis; while miR-324-5p-modified ADSCs could better promote post-MI repair. Mechanically, miR-324-5p targeted TOLLIP in myocardial tissues. Moreover, TOLLIP overexpression debilitated the promotive role of miR-324-5p-modified ADSCs in post-MI repair in rats. Conclusions miR-324-5p-modified ADSCs evidently strengthened post-MI myocardial repair by targeting TOLLIP in myocardial tissues.

Abstract
Mesenchymal stem cells (MSCs) are so far the most widely researched stem cells in clinics and used as an experimental cellular therapy module, particularly in cardiac regeneration and repair. Ever since the discovery of cardiomyogenesis induction in MSCs, a wide variety of differentiation protocols have been extensively used in preclinical models. However, pre differentiated MSC-derived cardiomyocytes have not been used in clinical trials; highlighting discrepancies and limitations in its use as a source of derived cardiomyocytes for transplantation to improve the damaged heart function. Therefore, this review article focuses on the strategies used to derive cardiomyocytes-like cells from MSCs isolated from three widely used tissue sources and their differentiation efficiencies. We have further discussed the role of MSCs in inducing angiogenesis as a cellular precursor to endothelial cells and its secretory aspects including exosomes. We have then discussed the strategies used for delivering cells in the damaged heart and how its retention plays a critical role in the overall outcome of the therapy. We have also conversed about the scope of the local and systemic modes of delivery of MSCs and the application of biomaterials to improve the overall delivery efficacy and function. We have finally discussed the advantages and limitations of cell delivery to the heart and the future scope of MSCs in cardiac regenerative therapy.

Abstract
Cardiovascular disorder affects the overall health of an individual and hence the quality of life. Stem cell therapy involves the use of stem cells widely used to treat different conditions. People having severe cardiovascular disorder can be treated with stem cells by generating heart muscles, stimulating the growth of blood vessels and by the secretion of different growth factors. Different types of stem cells are used for cardiac repair. Adipose stem cells and induced pluripotent stem cells are better options for increasing the survival rate. In this review we will discuss different types of stem cells, their activation pathway, generation, hurdles in transplantation and how to overcome them and their applications.

Differentiation-inducing factor-1 potentiates adipogenic differentiation and attenuates the osteogenic differentiation of bone marrow-derived mesenchymal stem cells. BIOCHIMICA ET BIOPHYSICA ACTA-MOLECULAR CELL RESEARCH 2020; 1868:118909.

Abstract
Mesenchymal stem cells (MSCs) are an attractive cell source for tissue regeneration and repair. However, their low differentiation efficacy currently impedes the development of MSC therapy. Therefore, in this study, we investigated the effects of differentiation-inducing factor-1 (DIF-1) on the differentiation efficacy of bone marrow-derived MSCs (BM-MSCs) into adipogenic or osteogenic lineages. BM-MSCs, which were obtained from Sprague-Dawley rats, were positive for the MSC markers (CD29, CD73, and CD90). DIF-1 alone neither affected cell surface antigen expression nor induced adipogenic or osteogenic differentiation. However, DIF-1 significantly enhanced the effects of adipogenic differentiation stimuli, which were evaluated as the number of oil red-O positive cells and the expression of adipocyte differentiation markers (peroxisome proliferator-activated receptor gamma, adipocyte fatty acid-binding protein, and adiponectin). In contrast, DIF-1 significantly attenuated the effects of osteogenic differentiation stimuli, which were evaluated as alizarin red-S positive calcium deposition, and the expression of osteoblast differentiation markers alkaline phosphatase, runt-related transcription factor 2, and osteopontin. We further investigated the mechanism by which DIF-1 affects MSC differentiation efficacy and found that glycogen synthase kinase-3 was the main factor mediating the action of DIF-1 on the adipogenic differentiation of BM-MSCs, whereas it was only partially involved in osteogenic differentiation. These results suggest that DIF-1 supports MSC differentiation toward the desired cell fate by enhancing the differentiation efficacy.

Abstract
This review aims to highlight the normal physiological remodeling that occurs in healthy aging hearts, including changes that occur in contractility, conduction, valve function, large and small coronary vessels, and the extracellular matrix. These "normal" age-related changes serve as the foundation that supports decreased plasticity and limited ability for tissue remodeling during pathophysiological states such as myocardial ischemia and heart failure. This review will identify populations at greater risk for poor tissue remodeling in advanced age along with present and future therapeutic strategies that may ameliorate dysfunctional tissue remodeling in aging hearts.

Abstract
Multipotent adult mesenchymal stromal cells (MSCs) could represent an elegant source for the generation of patient-specific cardiomyocytes needed for regenerative medicine, cardiovascular research, and pharmacological studies. However, the differentiation of adult MSC into a cardiac lineage is challenging compared to embryonic stem cells or induced pluripotent stem cells. Here we used non-integrative methods, including microRNA and mRNA, for cardiac reprogramming of adult MSC derived from bone marrow, dental follicle, and adipose tissue. We found that MSC derived from adipose tissue can partly be reprogrammed into the cardiac lineage by transient overexpression of GATA4, TBX5, MEF2C, and MESP1, while cells isolated from bone marrow, and dental follicle exhibit only weak reprogramming efficiency. qRT-PCR and transcriptomic analysis revealed activation of a cardiac-specific gene program and up-regulation of genes known to promote cardiac development. Although we did not observe the formation of fully mature cardiomyocytes, our data suggests that adult MSC have the capability to acquire a cardiac-like phenotype when treated with mRNA coding for transcription factors that regulate heart development. Yet, further optimization of the reprogramming process is mandatory to increase the reprogramming efficiency.
