Background/Aims: Diabetic fracture have poor treatment and serious complications. Therefore, how to treat diabetic fracture is receiving increasing attention. This study aimed to investigate the effects of transplanting CXCL13-stimulated bone marrow stromal cells (BMSCs) on the fracture healing in diabetic rats. Methods: In vitro, RT-PCR was employed to examine the expression of CXCL13 in BMSCs in high glucose environment. MTT assay and apoptosis assay were utilized to determine the effects of CXCL13 overexpression on the proliferation and apoptosis of BMSCs respectively. ALP staining was applied to detect the ALP activity. In vivo, CXCL13-stimulated BMSCs were transplanted into the fracture sites of diabetic rats. At the 1st week, 2nd weeks, 4th week and 6th week after the operation, bone mineral density (BMD) and callus area measurement, ELISA detection, and HE staining were performed to evaluate the fracture healing. Results: Low BMD and less area of callus in diabetic rats showed that the recovery after fracture was worse in diabetic rats than in non-diabetic rats. Meanwhile, the expression of CXCL13 in serum was lower in diabetic rats than in non-diabetic rats. Overexpression of CXCL13 promoted the proliferation of BMSCs in vitro high glucose environment. After BMSCs transfected with CXCL13 being transplanted into the fracture sites of diabetic rats, it was found that the fracture healing was enhanced and ALP expression in serum became higher. HE staining results further verified the effects of transplantation of BMSCs transfected with CXCL13 on fracture healing in diabetic rats. Conclusion: These finding indicated that CXCL13 may play a critical role in the process of fracture healing, which could provide a deeper insight into molecular targets for the fracture healing in diabetic people.

The tumor microenvironment can profoundly affect tumor cell survival as well as alter antitumor drug activity. However, conventional anticancer drug screening typically is performed in the absence of stromal cells. Here, we analyzed survival of myeloma cells co-cultured with bone marrow stromal cells (BMSC) using an automated fluorescence microscope platform, ScanR. By staining the cell nuclei with DRAQ5, we could distinguish between BMSC and myeloma cells, based on their staining intensity and nuclear shape. Using the apoptotic marker YO-PRO-1, the effects of drug treatment on the viability of the myeloma cells in the presence of stromal cells could be measured. The method does not require cell staining before incubation with drugs, and less than 5000 cells are required per condition. The method can be used for large-scale screening of anticancer drugs on primary myeloma cells. This study shows the importance of stromal cell support for primary myeloma cell survival in vitro, as half of the cell samples had a marked increase in their viability when cultured in the presence of BMSC. Stromal cell–induced protection against common myeloma drugs is also observed with this method.

ABSTRACT Murine bone marrow stromal cells differentiate not only into mesodermal derivatives, such as osteocytes, chondrocytes, adipocytes, skeletal myocytes, and cardiomyocytes, but also into neuroectodermal cells in vitro. Human bone marrow stromal cells are easy to isolate but difficult to study because of their limited life span. To overcome this problem, we attempted to prolong the life span of bone marrow stromal cells and investigated whether bone marrow stromal cells modified with bmi-1, hTERT, E6, and E7 retained their differentiated capability, or multipotency. In this study, we demonstrated that the life span of bone marrow stromal cells derived from a 91-year-old donor could be extended and that the stromal cells with an extended life span differentiated into neuronal cells in vitro. We examined the neuronally differentiated cells morphologically, physiologically, and biologically and compared the gene profiles of undifferentiated and differentiated cells. The neuronally differentiated cells exhibited characteristics similar to those of midbrain neuronal progenitors. Thus, the results of this study support the possible use of autologous-cell graft systems to treat central nervous system diseases in geriatric patients.
