Bone regeneration is a critical problem in modern clinical practice. Osteocytes are the most abundant cell population of mature adult bone that plays major roles in the regulation of bone formation. In humans, the segmental bone defects cannot be repaired by endogenous regenerative mechanisms. Bone tissue engineering (BTE) is a promising option for the treatment of difficult segmental and skeletal defects. BTE requires suitable cell sources with rapid expansion and adequate function, inducible factors, and scaffolds, to successfully regenerate or repair the bone injury. To overcome the disadvantages of using allogeneic and autologous tissue grafts, stem cell-based therapy has progressed an advanced topic in regenerative medicine. In the past few decades, numerous attempts have been made to generate osteocytes by using pluripotent stem cells (PSCs) for repair and regeneration of bone defects. Human induced pluripotent stem cells (hiPSCs) are PSCs that can self-renew and differentiate into a variety of cell types. Reprogramming of human somatic cells into hiPSCs provides a new opportunity for regenerative medicine, cell-based drug discovery, disease modeling, and toxicity assessment. The ability to differentiate hiPSCs towards mesenchymal stem cells (iPSC-MSCs) is essential for treating bone-related damages and injuries. Several in vitro studies revealed that the cell type of origin for iPSCs, a combination of transcription factors, the type of promoter in the vector, transduction methods, scaffolds, differentiating techniques, and culture medium may affect the osteogenic differentiation potential of hiPSCs. This review will focus on several factors that influence the osteogenic differentiation of human iPSCs.

Stem cells in large animals are an excellent model for cell therapy research and fine resources for producing transgenic animals. However, there are only few reports of stem cells in large animals because of technical differences between species. In this report, we successfully generate bovine induced pluripotent stem cells (iPSC) using 4 human reprogramming factors (Oct4, Sox2, Klf4, and c-myc) under control of PiggyBac transposition vector. Fibroblasts derived from bovine fetuses were transfected using FugeneHD agent. After 21 days, colony-shaped structures on the culture plates were mechanically detached and then seeded on a mouse embryonic fibroblast (MEF) feeder layer pretreated with mitomycin C. The culture medium was DMEM/F12 supplemented with 20% serum replacement, 5 ng mL–1 basic fibroblast growth factor (bFGF), 0.1 mM β-mercaptoethanol, 1% NEAA, and 1% penicillin-streptomycin antibiotics. The iPSC colonies showed alkaline phosphatase activity and expressed several pluripotency markers (Oct4, Sox2, SSEA1, and SSEA4). To confirm differentiation potential, the iPSC were cultured as embryoid bodies and then plated again. βIII-tubulin (ectoderm) and GFAP or α-SMA (mesoderm) were well expressed on the attached cells. The results revealed that the bovine fibroblasts were well inducted to iPSC that had potential of multilineage differentiation. We hope this technology contributes to improving transgenic cattle production. This study was financially supported by IPET (grant # 109023-05-3-CG000, 111078-03-1-CG000) and the BK21 program for Veterinary Science.
