At present, little research has been done on the metabolic phenotype of the differentiation of mesenchymal stem cells (MSCs) into osteoblasts. In this study, the effect of astaxanthin on improving osteogenic differentiation potential of mesenchymal stem cells was studied by metabolomics. Results showed that L-methionine, L-tyrosine, and 2-hydroxycinnamic acid were upregulated in MSCs treated with astaxanthin, while L-lysine, L-pipecolic acid, L-histidine, L-arginine, D-fructose, and L-aspartic acid were downregulated in samples treated with astaxanthin. In addition, astaxanthin exhibited a significant dose-dependent relationship with these markers. Metabolic pathway enrichment analysis revealed that AST mainly regulated phenylalanine metabolism; phenylalanine, tyrosine, and tryptophan biosynthesis; and pantothenate and CoA biosynthesis during the process of osteogenic differentiation of MSCs. Furthermore, the staining results showed that astaxanthin could actively promote the osteogenic differentiation of mesenchymal stem cells. These findings clearly indicate that astaxanthin plays an important role in inducing osteogenic differentiation of mesenchymal stem cells. In addition, the changed metabolites can be used to monitor the differentiation process.

We aimed to explore the effects of rat bone marrow mesenchymal stem cells (BMSCs) on osteogenic differentiation via analyzing miR-3148 expression in patients with osteoporosis. Realtime quantitative PCR was conducted for assessing microRNA-3148 expression. BMSCs from SD rats were transfected with microRNA-3148 mimics and microRNA-3148 inhibitor via liposomal trans-fection method utilizing Lipo2000, followed by analysis of microRNA-3148 level. After 10-days of osteogenic differentiation induction, alkaline phosphatase (ALP) staining and alizarin red (ARS) staining were done to investigate the osteogenic differentiation potential. Simultaneously, qRT-PCR measured the expression of osteogenesis marker genes (BMP and Runx2) in each group. qRT-PCR analysis revealed a high expression of miR-3148 in the bone tissue and the serum samples from patients with osteoporosis in comparison with healthy individuals. In addition, miRNA-3148 mimics could retard the osteogenic differentiation of BMSCs, while microRNA-3148 inhibitor could prompt the procedure. MicroRNA-3148 was highly expressed in the skeletal tissues and the serum samples from patients with osteoporosis and it could restrain the differentiation of BMSCs into osteoblasts, suggesting that it might be a novel therapeutic target for treating osteoporosis.

Abstract Background The purpose of present study was to identify the differentially expressed genes (DEGs) associated with BMP-9-induced osteogenic differentiation of mesenchymal stem cells (MSCs) by using bioinformatics methods. Methods Gene expression profiles of BMP-9-induced MSCs were compared between with GFP-induced MSCs and BMP-9-induced MSCs. GSE48882 containing two groups of gene expression profiles, 3 GFP-induced MSC samples and 3 from BMP-9-induced MSCs, was downloaded from the Gene Expression Omnibus (GEO) database. Then, DEGs were clustered based on functions and signaling pathways with significant enrichment analysis. Pathway enrichment analysis using the Kyoto Encyclopedia of Genes and Genomes (KEGG) demonstrated that the identified DEGs were potentially involved in cytoplasm, nucleus, and extracellular exosome signaling pathway. Results A total of 1967 DEGs (1029 upregulated and 938 downregulated) were identified from GSE48882 datasets. R/Bioconductor package limma was used to identify the DEGs. Further analysis revealed that there were 35 common DEGs observed between the samples. GO function and KEGG pathway enrichment analysis, among which endoplasmic reticulum, protein export, RNA transport, and apoptosis was the most significant dysregulated pathway. The result of protein-protein interaction (PPI) network modules demonstrated that the Hspa5, P4hb, Sec61a1, Smarca2, Pdia3, Dnajc3, Hyou1, Smad7, Derl1, and Surf4 were the high-degree hub nodes. Conclusion Taken above, using integrated bioinformatical analysis, we have identified DEGs candidate genes and pathways in BMP-9 induced MSCs, which could improve our understanding of the key genes and pathways for BMP-9-induced osteogenic of MSCs.

AbstractMesenchymal stem cells (MSCs) are important in regenerative medicine because of their potential for multi-differentiation. Bone marrow, chorion and placenta have all been suggested as potential sources for clinical application. However, the osteogenic differentiation potential of MSCs derived from chorion or placenta is not very efficient. Bone morphogenetic protein-2 (BMP-2) plays an important role in bone development. Its effect on osteogenic augmentation has been addressed in several studies. Recent studies have also shown a relationship between miRNAs and osteogenesis. We hypothesized that miRNAs targeted to Runt-related transcription factor 2 (Runx-2), a major transcription factor of osteogenesis, are responsible for regulating the differentiation of MSCs into osteoblasts. This study examines the effect of BMP-2 on the osteogenic differentiation of MSCs isolated from chorion and placenta in comparison to bone marrow-derived MSCs and investigates the role of miRNAs in the osteogenic differentiation of MSCs from these sources. MSCs were isolated from human bone marrow, chorion and placenta. The osteogenic differentiation potential after BMP-2 treatment was examined using ALP staining, ALP activity assay, and osteogenic gene expression. Candidate miRNAs were selected and their expression levels during osteoblastic differentiation were examined using real-time RT-PCR. The role of these miRNAs in osteogenesis was investigated by transfection with specific miRNA inhibitors. The level of osteogenic differentiation was monitored after anti-miRNA treatment. MSCs isolated from chorion and placenta exhibited self-renewal capacity and multi-lineage differentiation potential similar to MSCs isolated from bone marrow. BMP-2 treated MSCs showed higher ALP levels and osteogenic gene expression compared to untreated MSCs. All investigated miRNAs (miR-31, miR-106a and miR148) were consistently downregulated during the process of osteogenic differentiation. After treatment with miRNA inhibitors, ALP activity and osteogenic gene expression increased over the time of osteogenic differentiation. BMP-2 has a positive effect on osteogenic differentiation of chorion- and placenta-derived MSCs. The inhibition of specific miRNAs enhanced the osteogenic differentiation capacity of various MSCs in culture and this strategy might be used to promote bone regeneration. However, further in vivo experiments are required to assess the validity of this approach.
