Abstract Background: Osteonecrosis of femoral head (ONFH) is a common ischemic disease that induces femoral head necrosis. The role of exosomes and miRNA in ONFH has been elucidated, however, whether miRNA-modified exosomes improve the therapy of ONFH is not clear.Methods: We screened ONFH-related miRNAs by RNA sequencing in plasma exosomes of ONFH patients and healthy donors. The key miRNA was overexpressed in bone marrow mesenchymal stem cells (BMSC) exosomes. The regulatory functions of miRNA-modified BMSC exosomes in vascular endothelial cells were illustrated through angiogenesis assay and scratch assay.Results: We identified 9 differently expressed miRNAs (DEmiRNAs) in plasma exosomes between ONFH and healthy groups, with 6 up-regulated and 3 down-regulated miRNAs. Function and pathway analysis revealed DEmiRNAs were primarily involved in angiogenesis, cell migration, focal adhesion. Moreover, miR-150-5p was declined in ONFH exosomes and regulated multiple angiogenesis-related pathways. The miR-150-5p-overexpressed BMSC exosomes were successfully obtained and transported miR-150-5p to endothelial cells. Moreover, the miR-150-5p-modified BMSC exosomes promoted the angiogenesis and migration of endothelial cells.Conclusion: Our results elucidate the exosomal miRNA expression profiles in ONFH, and miR-150-5p-modified BMSC exosomes protect against ONFH by promoting angiogenesis, suggesting a new molecular knowledge for the clinical application of ONFH.

This study aims to dissect the effects of bone marrow mesenchymal stem cells (BMSC) on the in vitro activity of glioma cells and the underlying mechanisms. The glioma cells were transfected with miR-133 mimics, RACK1-Vector, negative control (NC) and miR-133 mimic+RACK1-Vector, respectively, and then co-cultured with BMSC followed by analysis of miR-133 expression via PCR, apoptosis via flow cytometry, proliferation via CCK-8, invasion and migration via Transwell assay, the expression of proteins involved in apoptosis, anti-apoptosis, invasiveness and RACK1 by western blot, and the targeting relationship between miR-133 and RACK1 by dual-luciferase reporter gene assay. In comparison with normal glial cells, glioma cells exhibited a significantly diminished miR-133 level. miR-133 was upregulated in glioma cells after co-culture with BMSC, along with significantly restrained proliferation rate, migration and invasion activities as well as reduced protein levels (MMP-2, Vimentin, N-cadherin and MMP-9). Mechanistic study showed that miR-133 can retard the expression of RACK1, thereby impeding the invasion, migration and proliferation activities of cells while triggering cell apoptosis. In conclusion, BMSC-originated miR-133 can impede the migration and invasion while enhancing the apoptosis of glioma cells via targeting RACK1.

Abstract Bone-marrow mesenchymal stem cells (BMSCs) have been used in the treatment of early steroid-induced osteonecrosis of the femoral head (SONFH). However, the hypoxic microenvironment in the osteonecrotic area leads to hypoxia-induced apoptosis of transplanted BMSCs, which limits their efficacy. Therefore, approaches that inhibit hypoxia-induced apoptosis of BMSCs are promising for augmenting the efficacy of BMSC transplantations. Our present study found that under hypoxia, expression of the long non-coding RNA (Lnc), transmembrane protein 235 (Tmem235), was down-regulated, expression of Bcl-2-associated X protein was up-regulated, expression of B-cell lymphoma-2 protein was down-regulated, and the apoptotic rate of BMSCs was over 70%. However, overexpression of Lnc Tmem235 reversed hypoxia-induced apoptosis of BMSCs and promoted their survival. These results demonstrated that Lnc Tmem235 effectively inhibited hypoxia-induced apoptosis of BMSCs. Mechanistically, we found that Lnc Tmem235 exhibited competitive binding to miR-34a-3p with BIRC5 mRNA, which is an inhibitor of apoptosis; this competitive binding relieved the silencing effect of miR-34a-3p on BIRC5 mRNA to ultimately inhibit hypoxia-induced apoptosis of BMSCs by promoting the expression of BIRC5. Furthermore, we co-cultured BMSCs overexpressing Lnc Tmem235 with xenogeneic antigen-extracted cancellous bone to construct tissue-engineered bone to repair a model of early SONFH in vitro. The results showed that overexpression of Lnc Tmem235 effectively reduced apoptosis of BMSCs in the hypoxic microenvironment of osteonecrosis and improved the effect of BMSC transplantation. Taken together, our findings elucidate that Lnc Tmem235 inhibited hypoxia-induced apoptosis of BMSCs by regulating the miR-34a-3p/BIRC5 axis, thus improving the transplantation efficacy of BMSCs for treating early SONFH.

Background/Aims: Avascular necrosis of the femoral head (ANFH) is the focus and difficulty of orthopedic diseases. Recently, tissue engineering bone for this disease has shown a good therapeutic effect. The aim of the present study was to investigate the therapeutic effect of basic fibroblast growth factor (FGF-2) as cytokines transfected bone marrow mesenchymal stem cells (BMSCs) in constructing tissue-engineered bone for avascular necrosis of the femoral head. Methods: The FGF-2 gene overexpressed lentivirus-transfected rBMSCs with xenogeneic antigen-extracted cancellous bone (XACB) to construct tissue engineered bone, and the model of early avascular necrosis of the femoral head was established by lipopolysaccharide (LPS) combined with hormone. The models were randomly divided into five groups: A (control), B (XACB), C (XACB+rBMSCs), D (XACB+rBMSCs+Lv-GFP), and E (XACB+rBMSCs+Lv-FGF-2/GFP) groups. The therapeutic effect of the tissue engineered bone for the avascular necrosis of the femoral head was evaluated by gross anatomy, X-ray examination, immunohistochemistry and H&E staining. Results: The FGF-2 gene was transfected into rBMSCs (Multiplicity of infection [MOI] = 100) by lentivirus, and its efficiency was above 95%. The rBMSCs were successfully transfected overexpressing FGF-2 by qPCR and western blot. After tissue engineering bone implantation, X-ray examination and gross specimen observation revealed that the repair area in the E group was > 80% at six weeks, the defect was completely repaired at 12 weeks, and osteogenesis was stronger, when compared with the other groups. For the X-ray score, vascular area density and new bone formation area were higher, when compared with the other groups, and the difference was statistically significant (P< 0.05). Conclusion: FGF-2 gene overexpression lentivirus transfection BMSCs combined with XACB to construct tissue engineered bone can effectively promote vascular regeneration, and improve the repair effect of avascular necrosis of the femoral head.
