Abstract Background Bone morphogenetic proteins (BMPs) induce osteogenesis in various environments. However, when BMPs are used alone in the bone marrow environment, the maintenance of new bone formation is difficult owing to vigorous bone resorption. This is because BMPs stimulate the differentiation of not only osteoblast precursor cells but also osteoclast precursor cells. The present study aimed to induce and maintain new bone formation using the topical co-administration of recombinant human BMP-2 (rh-BMP-2) and zoledronate (ZOL) on beta-tricalcium phosphate (β-TCP) composite. Methods β-TCP columns were impregnated with both rh-BMP-2 (30 µg) and ZOL (5 µg), rh-BMP-2 alone, or ZOL alone, and implanted into the left femur canal of New Zealand white rabbits (n = 56). The implanted β-TCP columns were harvested and evaluated at 3 and 6 weeks after implantation. These harvested β-TCP columns were evaluated radiologically using plane radiograph, and histologically using haematoxylin/eosin (H&E) and Masson’s trichrome (MT) staining. In addition, micro-computed tomography (CT) was performed for qualitative analysis of bone formation in each group (n = 7). Results Tissue sections stained with H&E and MT dyes revealed that new bone formation inside the β-TCP composite was significantly greater in those impregnated with both rh-BMP-2 and ZOL than in those from the other experimental groups at 3 and 6 weeks after implantations (p < 0.05). Micro-CT data also demonstrated that the bone volume and the bone mineral density inside the β-TCP columns were significantly greater in those impregnated with both rh-BMP-2 and ZOL than in those from the other experimental groups at 3 and 6 weeks after implantations (p < 0.05). Conclusions The topical co-administration of both rh-BMP-2 and ZOL on β-TCP composite promoted and maintained newly formed bone structure in the bone marrow environment.

AbstractBone marrow-derived mesenchymal stem cells (BM-MSCs), the common progenitor cells of adipocytes and osteoblasts, have been recognized as the key mediator during bone formation. Herein, our study aim to investigate molecular mechanisms underlying circular RNA (circRNA) AFF4 (circ_AFF4)-regulated BM-MSCs osteogenesis. BM-MSCs were characterized by FACS, ARS, and ALP staining. Expression patterns of circ_AFF4, miR-135a-5p, FNDC5/Irisin, SMAD1/5, and osteogenesis markers, including ALP, BMP4, RUNX2, Spp1, and Colla1 were detected by qRT-PCR, western blot, or immunofluorescence staining, respectively. Interactions between circ_AFF4 and miR-135a-5p, FNDC5, and miR-135a-5p were analyzed using web tools including TargetScan, miRanda, and miRDB, and further confirmed by luciferase reporter assay and RNA pull-down. Complex formation between Irisin and Integrin αV was verified by Co-immunoprecipitation. To further verify the functional role of circ_AFF4 in vivo during bone formation, we conducted animal experiments harboring circ_AFF4 knockdown, and born samples were evaluated by immunohistochemistry, hematoxylin and eosin, and Masson staining. Circ_AFF4 was upregulated upon osteogenic differentiation induction in BM-MSCs, and miR-135a-5p expression declined as differentiation proceeds. Circ_AFF4 knockdown significantly inhibited osteogenesis potential in BM-MSCs. Circ_AFF4 stimulated FNDC5/Irisin expression through complementary binding to its downstream target molecule miR-135a-5p. Irisin formed an intermolecular complex with Integrin αV and activated the SMAD1/5 pathway during osteogenic differentiation. Our work revealed that circ_AFF4, acting as a sponge of miR-135a-5p, triggers the promotion of FNDC5/Irisin via activating the SMAD1/5 pathway to induce osteogenic differentiation in BM-MSCs. These findings gained a deeper insight into the circRNA-miRNA regulatory system in the bone marrow microenvironment and may improve our understanding of bone formation-related diseases at physiological and pathological levels.

Osteoactivin (OA) plays a key role in osteogenic differentiation. miR-26b is elevated in the bone formation process of BMSCs, but whether it is involved in this process is unclear. Bone formation is regulated by FLT3/AXL signaling pathway, which may be a potential target of miR-26b. qRT-PCR detected miR-26b mRNA levels and bone formation-related genes or FLT3/AXL signaling pathway-related genes. Bone formation was analyzed by staining and FLT3/AXL signaling was evaluated along with analysis of miR-26b’s relation with LT3/AXL. miR-26b was significantly elevated in OA-induced bone formation of BMSCs, which can be promoted by miR-26b mimics. When miR-26b was overexpressed, FLT3/AXL signaling pathway was activated. miR-26b can ameliorate Dex-induced osteo-inhibition. miR-26b promotes bone formation of BMSCs by directly targeting FLT3/AXL signaling pathway, suggesting that miR-26b might be a target for inducing osteogenic differentiation.

ABSTRACTThe development of distant metastasis is the main cause of prostate cancer (CaP)-related death with the skeleton being the primary site of metastasis. While the progression of primary tumors and the growth of bone metastatic tumors are well described, the mechanisms controlling pre-metastatic niche formation and homing of CaP to bone remain unclear. Through prior studies, we demonstrated that platelet secretion was required for ongoing tumor growth and pre-metastatic tumor-induce bone formation and bone marrow-derived cell mobilization to cancers supporting angiogenesis. We hypothesized that proteins released by the platelet α granules were responsible for inducing changes in the pre-metastatic bone niche. We found that the classically anti-angiogenic protein thrombospondin (TSP)-1 was significantly increased in the platelets of mice bearing tumors. To determine the role of increased TSP-1, we implanted tumors in TSP-1 null animals and assessed changes in tumor growth and pre-metastatic niche formation. TSP-1 loss resulted in increased tumor size and enhanced angiogenesis but reduced bone marrow-derived cell mobilization and tumor-induced bone formation with enhanced osteoclast formation. We hypothesized that these changes in the pre-metastatic niche were due to the retention of TGF-β1 in the platelets of mice with TSP-1 deleted. To assess the importance of platelet-derived TGF-β1, we implanted CaP tumors in mice with platelet-specific deletion of TGF-β1. Similar to TSP-1 deletion, loss of platelet TGF-β1 resulted in increased angiogenesis with a milder effect on tumor size and BMDC release. Within the bone microenvironment, platelet TGF-β1 deletion prevented tumor-induced bone formation due to increased osteoclastogenesis. Thus, we demonstrate that the TSP-1/TGF-β1 axis regulates pre-metastatic niche formation and tumor-induced bone turnover. Targeting the platelet release of TSP-1 or TGF-β1 represents a potential method to interfere with the process of CaP metastasis to bone.
