Abnormal gene expression is frequently observed in nuclear transfer (NT) embryos and is one of the suggested causes of the low success rates of this approach. Recent study has suggested that adult stem cells may be better donor cells for NT, as their less differentiated state may ease epigenetic reprogramming by the oocyte (Kato et al. 2004 Biol. Reprod. 70, 415-418). In the present study, we investigated the expression profile of some selected genes involved in the development of the pre-implantation embryos of in vivo- and NT-derived origin using bone marrow mesenchymal stem cells (MSCs) and porcine fetal fibroblasts (pFF) as donors. Isolated population of MSCs from porcine bone marrow were characterized by cell-surface antigen profile (CD13pos, CD105pos, CD45neg, and CD133neg) and by their extensive consistent differentiation to multiple mesenchymal lineages (adipocytic, osteocytic and chondrocytic) under controlled in vitro conditions (Pittenger et al. 1999 Science 284, 143-147). Primary cultures of pFF from a female fetus at <30 days of gestation were established. for NT, donor cells at 3-4 passages were employed. Embryos cloned from MSCs showed enhanced developmental potential compared to pFF cloned embryos, indicated by higher rates of blastocyst formation (15.3% � 4.8 and 9.0% � 3.9, respectively) and total cell number (31.5 � 7.2 and 20.5 � 5.4, respectively) in Day 7 blastocysts. Total RNA was extracted from pools (triplicates) of 10 embryos each of 8-cell, morula, and blastocyst stages of in vivo and NT origin using Dynabeads� mRNA DIRECT" kit (Dynal, Oslo, Norway). Reverse transcription was performed with a Superscript" III cDNA synthesis kit (Invitrogen, Carlsbad, CA, USA). Real-time PCR was performed on a Light cycler� using FastStart DNA Master SYBR Green I (Roche Diagnostics, Mannheim, Germany). The expression profiles of genes involved in transcription (Oct-4, Stat3), DNA methylation (Dnmt1), de novo methylation (Dnmt3a), histone deacetylation (Hdac2), anti-apoptosis (Bcl-xL), and embryonic growth (Igf2r) were determined. The mRNA of H2a was employed to normalize the levels. Significant differences (P < 0.05) in the relative abundance of Stat3, Dnmt1, Dnmt3a, Bcl2, and Igf2r were observed in pFF NT embryos compared with in vivo-produced embryos, whereas embryos derived from MSCs showed expression patterns similar to those of in vivo-produced embryos. However, Oct-4 and Hdac2 revealed similar expression profiles in NT- and in vivo-produced embryos. These results indicate that MSC-derived NT embryos had enhanced embryonic development and their gene expression pattern more closely resembled that of in vivo-produced embryos. Hence, less differentiated MSCs may have a more flexible potential in improving the efficiency of the porcine NT technique.

Lactoferrin (LF) has demonstrated stimulation of osteogenic differentiation of mesenchymal stem cells (MSCs). Long non-coding RNAs (lncRNAs) participate in regulating the osteogenic differentiation processes. However, the impact of LF on lncRNA expression in MSC osteogenic differentiation is poorly understood. Our aim was to investigate the effects of LF on lncRNAs expression profiles, during osteogenic differentiation of rat bone marrow mesenchymal stem cells (rBMSCs), by RNA sequencing. A total number of 1331 putative lncRNAs were identified in rBMSCs during osteogenic differentiation in the study. LF influenced the expression of 120 lncRNAs (differentially expressed lncRNAs [DELs], Fold change > 1.5 or < −1.5; p < 0.05) in rBMSCs on day 14 of osteogenic differentiation, consisted of 60 upregulated and 60 down-regulated. Furthermore, the potential functions of DELs were of prediction by searching their target cis- and trans-regulated protein-coding genes. The bioinformatic analysis of DELs target gene revealed that LF led to the disfunction of transforming growth factor beta stimulus (TGF-β) and positive regulation of I-κappa B kinase/NF-κappa B signaling pathway, which may relate to osteogenic differentiation of rBMSCs. Our work is the first profiling of lncRNA in osteogenic differentiation of rBMSCs induced by LF, and provides valuable insights into the potential mechanisms for LF promoting osteogenic activity.

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.

Long non-coding RNAs (lncRNAs) play pivotal roles in mesenchymal stem cell differentiation. However, the mechanisms by which non-coding RNA (ncRNA) networks regulate osteogenic differentiation remain unclear. Therefore, our aim was to identify RNA-associated gene and transcript expression profiles during osteogenesis in bone marrow mesenchymal stem cells (BMSCs). Using transcriptome sequencing for differentially expressed ncRNAs and mRNAs between days 0 and 21 of osteogenic differentiation of BMSCs, we found that the microRNA (miRNA) miR-503-5p was significantly downregulated. However, the putative miR-503-5p target, sorbin and SH3 domain containing 1 (SORBS1), was significantly upregulated in osteogenesis. Moreover, through lncRNA-miRNA-mRNA interaction analyses and loss- and gain-of-function experiments, we discovered that the lncRNAs LOC100126784 and POM121L9P were abundant in the cytoplasm and enhanced BMSC osteogenesis by promoting SORBS1 expression. In contrast, miR-503-5p reversed this effect. Ago2 RNA-binding protein immunoprecipitation and dual-luciferase reporter assays further validated the direct binding of miR-503-5p to LOC100126784 and POM121L9P. Furthermore, SORBS1 knockdown suppressed early osteogenic differentiation in BMSCs, and co-transfection with SORBS1 small interfering RNAs counteracted the BMSCs’ osteogenic capacity promoted by LOC100126784- and POM121L9P-overexpressing lentivirus plasmids. Thus, the present study demonstrated that the lncRNAs LOC100126784 and POM121L9P facilitate the osteogenic differentiation of BMSCs via the miR-503-5p/SORBS1 axis, providing potential therapeutic targets for treating osteoporosis and bone defects.
