[PMID: 37448325 DOI: 10.1111/odi.14649] [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: 11/06/2022] [Revised: 05/07/2023] [Accepted: 06/05/2023] [Indexed: 07/15/2023]
Abstract
OBJECTIVE We aimed to identify the crucial genes involved in dental pulp stem cell (DPSC) senescence and evaluate the impact of melatonin on DPSC senescence. METHODS Western blotting, SA-β-Gal staining and ALP staining were used to evaluate the senescence and differentiation potential of DPSCs. The optimal concentration of melatonin was determined using the CCK-8 assay. Differentially expressed genes (DEGs) involved in DPSC senescence were obtained via bioinformatics analysis, followed by RT-qPCR. Gain- and loss-of-function studies were conducted to explore the role of MMP3 in DPSC in vitro expansion and in response to melatonin. GSEA was employed to analyse MMP3-related pathways in cellular senescence. RESULTS Treatment with 0.1 μM melatonin attenuated cellular senescence and differentiation potential suppression in DPSCs due to long-term in vitro expansion. MMP3 was a crucial gene in senescence, as confirmed by bioinformatics analysis, RT-qPCR and Western blotting. Furthermore, gain- and loss-of-function studies revealed that MMP3 played a regulatory role in cellular senescence. Rescue assays showed that overexpression of MMP3 reversed the effect of melatonin on senescence. GSEA revealed that the MMP3-dependent anti-senescence effect of melatonin was associated with the IL6-JAK-STAT3, TNF-α-Signalling-VIA-NF-κB, COMPLEMENT, NOTCH Signalling and PI3K-AKT-mTOR pathways. CONCLUSION Melatonin attenuated DPSC senescence caused by long-term expansion by inhibiting MMP3.

Abstract
Stemness pertains to the intrinsic ability of mesenchymal stem cells (MSCs) to undergo self-renewal and differentiate into multiple lineages, while simultaneously impeding their differentiation and preserving crucial differentiating genes in a state of quiescence and equilibrium. Owing to their favorable attributes, including uncomplicated isolation protocols, ethical compliance, and ease of procurement, MSCs have become a focal point of inquiry in the domains of regenerative medicine and tissue engineering. As age increases or ex vivo cultivation is prolonged, the functionality of MSCs decreases and their stemness gradually diminishes, thereby limiting their potential therapeutic applications. Despite the existence of several uncertainties surrounding the comprehension of MSC stemness, considerable advancements have been achieved in the clarification of the potential mechanisms that lead to stemness loss, as well as the associated strategies for stemness maintenance. This comprehensive review provides a systematic overview of the factors influencing the preservation of MSC stemness, the molecular mechanisms governing it, the strategies for its maintenance, and the therapeutic potential associated with stemness. Finally, we underscore the obstacles and prospective avenues in present investigations, providing innovative perspectives and opportunities for the preservation and therapeutic utilization of MSC stemness.

Ke D, Xu H, Han J, Dai H, Wang X, Luo J, Yu Y, Xu J. Curcumin suppresses RANKL-induced osteoclast precursor autophagy in osteoclastogenesis by inhibiting RANK signaling and downstream JNK-BCL2-Beclin1 pathway. Biomed J 2024; 47:100605. [PMID: 37179010 PMCID: PMC10839592 DOI: 10.1016/j.bj.2023.100605] [Citation(s) in RCA: 1] [Impact Index Per Article: 1.0] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Key Words] [MESH Headings] [Track Full Text] [Journal Information] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 08/25/2022] [Revised: 01/30/2023] [Accepted: 05/08/2023] [Indexed: 05/15/2023] Open
Abstract
BACKGROUND Curcumin ameliorates bone loss by inhibiting osteoclastogenesis. Curcumin inhibits RANKL-promoted autophagy in osteoclast precursors (OCPs), which mediates its anti-osteoclastogenic effect. But the role of RANKL signaling in curcumin-regulated OCP autophagy is unknown. This study aimed to explore the relationship between curcumin, RANKL signaling, and OCP autophagy during osteoclastogenesis. METHODS We investigated the role of curcumin in RANKL-related molecular signaling in OCPs, and identified the significance of RANK-TRAF6 signaling in curcumin-treated osteoclastogenesis and OCP autophagy using flow sorting and lentiviral transduction. Tg-hRANKL mice were used to observe the in vivo effects of curcumin on RANKL-regulated bone loss, osteoclastogenesis, and OCP autophagy. The significance of JNK-BCL2-Beclin1 pathway in curcumin-regulated OCP autophagy with RANKL was explored via rescue assays and BCL2 phosphorylation detection. RESULTS Curcumin inhibited RANKL-related molecular signaling in OCPs, and repressed osteoclast differentiation and autophagy in sorted RANK+ OCPs but did not affect those of RANK- OCPs. Curcumin-inhibited osteoclast differentiation and OCP autophagy were recovered by TRAF6 overexpression. But curcumin lost these effects under TRAF6 knockdown. Furthermore, curcumin prevented the decrease in bone mass and the increase in trabecular osteoclast formation and autophagy in RANK+ OCPs in Tg-hRANKL mice. Additionally, curcumin-inhibited OCP autophagy with RANKL was reversed by JNK activator anisomycin and TAT-Beclin1 overexpressing Beclin1. Curcumin inhibited BCL2 phosphorylation at Ser70 and enhanced protein interaction between BCL2 and Beclin1 in OCPs. CONCLUSIONS Curcumin suppresses RANKL-promoted OCP autophagy by inhibiting signaling pathway downstream of RANKL, contributing to its anti-osteoclastogenic effect. Moreover, JNK-BCL2-Beclin1 pathway plays an important role in curcumin-regulated OCP autophagy.

Abstract
Undoubtedly, mesenchymal stem cells (MSCs) are the most common cell therapy candidates in clinical research and therapy. They not only exert considerable therapeutic effects to alleviate inflammation and promote regeneration, but also show low-immunogenicity properties, which ensure their safety following allogeneic transplantation. Thanks to the necessity of providing a sufficient number of MSCs to achieve clinically efficient outcomes, prolonged in vitro cultivation is indisputable. However, either following long-term in vitro expansion or aging in elderly individuals, MSCs face cellular senescence. Senescent MSCs undergo an impairment in their function and therapeutic capacities and secrete degenerative factors which negatively affect young MSCs. To this end, designing novel investigations to further elucidate cellular senescence and to pave the way toward finding new strategies to reverse senescence is highly demanded. In this review, we will concisely discuss current progress on the detailed mechanisms of MSC senescence and various inflicted changes following aging in MSC. We will also shed light on the examined strategies underlying monitoring and reversing senescence in MSCs to bypass the comprised therapeutic efficacy of the senescent MSCs.

Abstract
Mesenchymal stem cells (MSCs) possess the ability to self-renew and differentiate into multiple cell types, making them highly suitable for use as seed cells in tissue engineering. These can be derived from various sources and have been found to play crucial roles in several physiological processes, such as tissue repair, immune regulation, and intercellular communication. However, the limited capacity for cell proliferation and the secretion of senescence-associated secreted phenotypes (SASPs) pose challenges for the clinical application of MSCs. In this review, we provide a comprehensive summary of the senescence characteristics of MSCs and examine the different features of cellular microenvironments studied thus far. Additionally, we discuss the mechanisms by which cellular microenvironments regulate the senescence process of MSCs, offering insights into preserving their functionality and enhancing their effectiveness.

Abstract
Cellular senescence is an irreversible state of cell cycle arrest, characterized by a gradual decline in cell proliferation, differentiation, and biological functions. Cellular senescence is double-edged for that it can provoke organ repair and regeneration in physiological conditions but contribute to organ and tissue dysfunction and prime multiple chronic diseases in pathological conditions. The liver has a strong regenerative capacity, where cellular senescence and regeneration are closely involved. Herein, this review firstly introduces the morphological manifestations of senescent cells, the major regulators (p53, p21, and p16), and the core pathophysiologic mechanisms underlying senescence process, and then specifically generalizes the role and interventions of cellular senescence in multiple liver diseases, including alcoholic liver disease, nonalcoholic fatty liver disease, liver fibrosis, and hepatocellular carcinoma. In conclusion, this review focuses on interpreting the importance of cellular senescence in liver diseases and summarizes potential senescence-related regulatory targets, aiming to provide new insights for further researches on cellular senescence regulation and therapeutic developments for liver diseases.

Abstract
Mesenchymal stem cells (MSCs) can be used as a cell source for cultivated meat production due to their adipose differentiation potential, but MSCs lose their stemness and undergo replicative senescence during expansion in vitro. Autophagy is an important mechanism for senescent cells to remove toxic substances. However, the role of autophagy in the replicative senescence of MSCs is controversial. Here, we evaluated the changes in autophagy in porcine MSCs (pMSCs) during long-term culture in vitro and identified a natural phytochemical, ginsenoside Rg2, that could stimulate pMSC proliferation. First, some typical senescence characteristics were observed in aged pMSCs, including decreased EdU-positive cells, increased senescence-associated beta-galactosidase activity, declined stemness-associated marker OCT4 expression, and enhanced P53 expression. Importantly, autophagic flux was impaired in aged pMSCs, suggesting deficient substrate clearance in aged pMSCs. Rg2 was found to promote the proliferation of pMSCs using MTT assay and EdU staining. In addition, Rg2 inhibited D-galactose-induced senescence and oxidative stress in pMSCs. Rg2 increased autophagic activity via the AMPK signaling pathway. Furthermore, long-term culture with Rg2 promoted the proliferation, inhibited the replicative senescence, and maintained the stemness of pMSCs. These results provide a potential strategy for porcine MSC expansion in vitro.

Abstract
The aim of this study is preconditioning of hBM-MSCs using curcumin modified nanomembrane to optimize therapy of hepatic fibrosis and preventing its recurrence. Methods: The nanomembrane was prepared by electrospinning technique and characterized using conventional method (cur- nanoscaffold and cur+ nanoscaffold). Kinetic release of curcumin was also measured by spectrophotometry. MSCs were isolated from human bone marrow (hBM-MSCs) and cultured on the both nanoscaffolds. We evaluated the in-vivo effect of hBM-MSCs from both nanoscaffold cultures (cur- nanoscaffold/hMSCs and cur+ nanoscaffold/MSCs) on liver fibrosis from its effective and preventive points and we assessed the mechanisms of these effects as in vitro studies as cell proliferation, its effect on hepatogenic differentiation, its effect on paracrine release of hBM-MSCs and in-vivo studying the effect on cell migration, survival, engraftment, fate of transplanted cells, modifying the fibrogenic and inflammatory microenvironments. Results: The results of animal model showed that single injection of preconditioning of hBM-MSCs using curcumin modified nanoscaffold ameliorate the fibrosis and prevent its recurrence until 24 weeks of therapy in contrast to improvement but not ameliorative effect of hBM-MSCs/ curcumin negative nanoscaffold which recurred progressively after 12 weeks of therapy. These effects of curcumin modified nanoscaffold were results from its highly efficacy on cell proliferation, in-vitro and in-vivo hepatogenic differentiation, increasing cell migration, engraftment and survival in the inflammatory microenvironment which was markedly improved by down regulation of inflammatory mediators and upregulation of anti-oxidant factors. Conclusion: hBM-MSCs cultured on the prepared curcumin nanomembrane in this study is promising in regenerative therapy for ameliorating the hepatic fibrosis and to prevent its recurrence.

Interferon-γ enhances the immunosuppressive ability of canine bone marrow-derived mesenchymal stem cells by activating the TLR3-dependent IDO/kynurenine pathway. Mol Biol Rep 2022; 49:8337-8347.

Abstract
BACKGROUND The immunomodulatory function of mesenchymal stem cells (MSCs) has been considered to be vital for MSC-based therapies. Many works have been devoted to excavate effective strategies for enhancing the immunomodulation effect of MSCs. Nonetheless, canine MSC-mediated immunomodulation is still poorly understood. METHODS AND RESULTS The inflammatory microenvironment was simulated through the employment of interferon-γ (IFN-γ) in a culture system. Compared with unstimulated cBMSCs, IFN-γ stimulation increased the mRNA levels of Toll-like receptor 3 (TLR3) and indoleamine 2, 3-dioxygenase 1 (IDO-1), and simultaneously enhanced the secretion of immunosuppressive molecules, including interleukin (IL)-10, hepatocyte growth factor (HGF), and kynurenine in cBMSCs. IFN-γ stimulation significantly enhanced the ability of cBMSCs and their supernatant to suppress the proliferation of murine spleen lymphocytes. Lymphocyte subtyping evaluation revealed that cBMSCs and their supernatant diminished the percentage of CD3+CD4+ and CD3+CD8+ lymphocytes compared with the control group, with a decreasing CD4+/CD8+ ratio. Notably, exposure to IFN-γ decreased the CD4+/CD8+ ratio more effectively than unstimulated cells or supernatant. Additionally, IFN-γ-stimulation increased the mRNA levels of the Th1 cytokines TNF-α, and remarkably decreased the mRNA level of the Th2 cytokine IL-4 and IL-10. CONCLUSION Our findings substantiate that IFN-γ stimulation can enhance the immunomodulatory properties of cBMSCs by promoting TLR3-dependent activation of the IDO/kynurenine pathway, increasing the secretion of immunoregulatory molecules and strengthening interactions with T lymphocytes, which may provide a meaningful strategy for the clinical application of cBMSCs in immune-related diseases.

Abstract
3D printed porous titanium alloy implants is an advanced orthopedic material for joint replacement. However, the high risk of aseptic loosening and periprosthetic infection is difficult to avoid, and the declined autophagy of osteoporosis-derived bone marrow mesenchymal stem cells (OP-BMSCs) further severely impairs the osseointegration under the osteoporotic circumstance. It is thus becoming urgently significant to develop orthopedic materials with autophagy regulation and antibacterial bioactivity. In this regard, a novel class of multifunctional hydrogel-integrated 3D printed bioactive prosthetic interfaces is engineered for in situ osseointegration in osteoporosis. The hydrogel is fabricated from the dynamic crosslinking of synthetic polymers, natural polymers, and silver nanowires to deliver autophagy-regulated rapamycin. Therefore, the resultant soft material exhibits antibacterial ability, biocompatibility, degradability, conductive, self-healing, and stimuli-responsive abilities. In vitro experiments demonstrate that the hydrogel-integrated 3D printed bioactive prosthetic interfaces can restore the declined cellular activities of OP-BMSCs by upregulating the autophagy level and show excellent antibacterial activity against S. aureus and MRSA. More remarkably, the multifunctional 3D printed bioactive prosthetic interfaces significantly improve osseointegration and inhibit infection in osteoporotic environment in vivo. This study provides an efficient strategy to develop novel prosthetic interfaces to reduce complications after arthroplasty for patients with osteoporosis.
