Bone marrow-derived mesenchymal stem cells (BMDMSC) hold promise for targeted osteogenic differentiation and can be augmented by delivery of genes encoding bone morphogenetic proteins (BMP). The feasibility of promoting osteogenic differentiation of BMDMSC was investigated using two BMP genes in monolayer and three-dimensional alginate culture systems. Cultured BMDMSC were transduced with E1-deleted adenoviral vectors containing either human BMP2 or BMP6 coding sequence under cytomegalovirus (CMV) promoter control [17:1 multiplicities of infection (moi)] and either sustained in monolayer or suspended in 1 mL 1.2% alginate beads for 22 days. Adenovirus (Ad)-BMP-2 and Ad-BMP-6 transduction resulted in abundant BMP-2 and BMP-6 mRNA and protein expression in monolayer culture and BMP-2 protein expression in alginate cultures. Ad-BMP-2 and Ad-BMP-6 transduced BMDMSC in monolayer had earlier and robust alkaline phosphatase-positive staining and mineralization and were sustained for a longer duration with better morphology scores than untransduced or Ad-beta-galactosidase-transduced cells. Ad-BMP-2- and, to a lesser degree, Ad-BMP-6-transduced BMDMSC suspended in alginate demonstrated greater mineralization than untransduced cells. Gene expression studies at day 2 confirmed an inflammatory response to the gene delivery process with upregulation of interleukin 8 and CXCL2. Upregulation of genes consistent with response to BMP exposure and osteogenic differentiation, specifically endochondral ossification and extracellular matrix proteins, occurred in BMP-transduced cells. These data support that transduction of BMDMSC with Ad-BMP-2 or Ad-BMP-6 can accelerate osteogenic differentiation and mineralization of stem cells in culture, including in three-dimensional culture. BMP-2-transduced stem cells suspended in alginate culture may be a practical carrier system to support bone formation in vivo. BMP-6 induced a less robust cellular response than BMP-2, particularly in alginate culture. 相似文献

Collagen integrin receptors regulate early osteoblast differentiation induced by BMP-2. 总被引:4,自引:0,他引:4

Studies in several cell types indicate that the actions of integrin receptors for extracellular matrix and receptors for growth factors are synergistic in regulating cellular differentiation and function. We studied the roles of the alpha1beta1 and alpha2beta1 integrin collagen receptors in regulating the differentiation of 2T3 osteoblastic cells in response to bone morphogenetic protein (BMP)-2. The immortalized 2T3 cell line was established from the calvaria of mice transgenic for a BMP-2 promoter driving SV40 T-antigen. These cells require exogenous BMP-2, as well as ascorbic acid and beta-glycerolphosphate, for expression of a mature osteoblast phenotype and formation of a mineralized matrix. To determine how integrin receptors for collagen-I affect BMP-2 signaling, function-perturbing anti-rat alpha1 and/or alpha2 integrin subunit, or anti-type I collagen (Col-I), antibodies were added to human recombinant (hr)BMP-2-treated 2T3 cultures at confluence (C0) or at 4 or 8 days postconfluence (C4, C8). After 4 days of exposure to the antibodies, cultures were assayed for alkaline phosphatase (ALP) mRNA levels and enzyme activity and for cAMP production in response to parathyroid hormone. Addition of anti-collagen-I or both anti-integrin-alpha1 and -alpha2 antibodies to C0 cultures blocked expression of these early osteoblast markers by more than 90%, and also blocked mineralization (0.5-1.8% control) of these cells. In all cases, adding anti-alpha1 or anti-alpha2 antibodies separately produced partial effects, while their combined effect approached that of anti-collagen-I. When antibodies were added to more differentiated 2T3 cells, the inhibitory effects decreased. 2T3 cells carrying constitutively active BMP receptor (caBMPR-IB) showed elevated ALP activity without hrBMP-2; this constitutive activity was also suppressed by alpha1 and alpha2 integrin antibodies and by anti-Col-I antibody. Together, our data suggest that a signal(s) from collagen integrin receptors regulates the response to BMP downstream of BMPR-IB and upstream of the regulation of ALP mRNA and other early markers of osteoblast differentiation. 相似文献

BMP-2 controls alkaline phosphatase expression and osteoblast mineralization by a Wnt autocrine loop. 总被引:14,自引:0,他引:14

Wnt/beta-catenin signaling has recently been suggested to be involved in bone biology. The precise role of this cascade in osteoblast differentiation was examined. We show that a Wnt autocrine loop mediates the induction of alkaline phosphatase and mineralization by BMP-2 in pre-osteoblastic cells. INTRODUCTION: Loss of function of LRP5 leads to osteoporosis (OPPG syndrome), and a specific point mutation in this same receptor results in high bone mass (HBM). Because LRP5 acts as a coreceptor for Wnt proteins, these findings suggest a crucial role for Wnt signaling in bone biology. MATERIALS AND METHODS: We have investigated the involvement of the Wnt/LRP5 cascade in osteoblast function by using the pluripotent mesenchymal cell lines C3H10T1/2, C2C12, and ST2 and the osteoblast cell line MC3T3-E1. Transfection experiments were carried out with a number of elements of the Wnt/LRP5 pathway. Measuring osteoblast and adipocyte differentiation markers addressed the effect of this cascade on osteoblast differentiation. RESULTS: In mesenchymal cells, only Wnt's capable of stabilizing beta-catenin induced the expression of alkaline phosphatase (ALP). Wnt3a-mediated ALP induction was inhibited by overexpression of either Xddl, dickkopf 1 (dkk1), or LRP5deltaC, indicating that canonical beta-catenin signaling is responsible for this activity. The use of Noggin, a bone morphogenic protein (BMP) inhibitor, or cyclopamine, a Hedgehog inhibitor, revealed that the induction of ALP by Wnt is independent of these morphogenetic proteins and does not require de novo protein synthesis. In contrast, blocking Wnt/LRP5 signaling or protein synthesis inhibited the ability of both BMP-2 and Shh to induce ALP in mesenchymal cells. Moreover, BMP-2 enhanced Wntl and Wnt3a expression in our cells. In MC3T3-E1 cells, where endogenous ALP levels are maximal, antagonizing the Wnt/LRP5 pathway led to a decrease of ALP activity. In addition, overexpression of dkkl reduced extracellular matrix mineralization in a BMP-2-dependent assay. CONCLUSIONS: Our data strongly suggest that the capacity of BMP-2 and Shh to induce ALP relies on Wnt expression and the Wnt/LRP5 signaling cascade. Moreover the effects of BMP-2 on extracellular matrix mineralization by osteoblasts are mediated, at least in part, by the induction of a Wnt autocrine/paracrine loop. These results may help to explain the phenotype of OPPG patients and HBM. 相似文献

Expression of preosteoblast markers and Cbfa-1 and Osterix gene transcripts in stromal tumour cells of giant cell tumour of bone 总被引:5,自引:0,他引:5
In giant cell tumour of bone (GCT), mononuclear stromal cells, which represent the neoplastic component of this lesion, regulate the formation of multinucleated osteoclast-like giant cells which are the characteristic hallmark of this tumour. However, the origin of stromal tumour cells has not yet been clearly defined. In this study, we evaluated several osteoblast markers including collagen type I, bone sialoprotein (BSP), osteonectin and osteocalcin in GCT using immunohistochemical techniques. Amongst the 13 GCT specimens and 7 GCT stromal cell (GCTSC) cultures studied, majority of the GCTSC synthesized type I collagen, BSP and osteonectin proteins but did not produce the differentiated osteoblast marker, osteocalcin. We further examined the regulation of several important osteogenic genes such as Cbfa-1, osterix and osteocalcin, and regulation of ALP activity in GCTSC in culture by bone morphogenetic protein 2 (BMP-2). Real-time PCR analysis indicated that Cbfa-1, osterix and osteocalcin mRNA were present in primary cultures of GCTSC. The addition of BMP-2 upregulated Cbfa-1 and osterix gene expression within 12 h and the enhancement was still observed at 24 h. ALP activity was minimal in untreated GCTSC in cultures. The number of ALP-positive GCTSC was significantly increased following treatment with BMP-2 or combinations with beta-glycerophosphate and ascorbic acid. In contrast, BMP enhancement of osterix mRNA level and ALP activity was also seen in SaOS2 osteoblast-like cells, but not in the primary culture of normal human skin fibroblasts. In summary, our data suggest that GCT stromal tumour cells may have an osteoblastic lineage and retain the ability to differentiate into osteoblasts. 相似文献

We established the clonal mesenchymal cell line, GFP-C3 (C3), which differentiates into osteoblasts in response to BMP-2 from calvariae of newborn green fluorescence protein (GFP) transgenic mice. This cell line cultured with control medium expressed low levels of alkaline phosphatase (ALP) activity and osterix mRNA and undetectable ALP and osteocalcin mRNA. Incubation of these cells with rhBMP-2 increased ALP activity dose-dependently and induced substantial levels of ALP, osteocalcin and osterix mRNA expression. C3 cells infected with adenovirus vector encoding BMP-2 (AdBMP-2) or Runx2 (AdRunx2) showed greatly increased ALP mRNA expression in a time-dependent fashion. Transduction with AdRunx2-induced expression of ALP and osteocalcin mRNA, but not osterix mRNA by day 3. Transduction with AdBMP-2 induced apparent expression of ALP and osterix mRNA by day 1 after transduction, but induced only weak expression of osteocalcin mRNA day 3 after transduction. Transplantation of C3 cells transduced with AdBMP-2 into back subfascia in wild-type mice with a complex of poly-d,l-lactic-co-glycolic acid/gelatin sponge (PGS) generated ectopic bone formation involving GFP-positive osteoblasts and osteocytes 2 weeks after transplantation. C3 cells transduced with AdRunx2 or AdLacZ failed to induce ectopic bone formation. Transplantation of C3 cells transduced with AdBMP-2 into craniotomy defects in wild-type mice using PGS as a carrier induced bone formation 2 weeks after transplantation, and replaced defects 4 weeks after transplantation. C3 cells transduced with AdRunx2 failed to induce bone repair after transplantation into craniotomy defects. These results indicate that C3 cells retain differentiation potential into osteoblasts in response to BMP-2. They are useful tools for analyzing the process of osteoblast differentiation in vivo after transplantation. 相似文献

Ex vivo bone morphogenetic protein-9 gene therapy using human mesenchymal stem cells induces spinal fusion in rodents 总被引:20,自引:0,他引:20

OBJECTIVE: Ex vivo gene therapy with the use of human mesenchymal stem cells (hMSCs) and bone morphogenetic protein (BMP) genes provides a local supply of precursor cells and a supraphysiological dose of osteoinductive molecules that may promote bone formation in patients with inadequate hMSC populations because of age, osteoporosis, metastatic bone disease, iatrogenic depletion, or other metabolic derangements. This study was undertaken to evaluate the efficacy of ex vivo gene therapy with the use of hMSCs and the BMP-9 gene to promote spinal fusion in the rat. METHODS: Sixteen athymic nude rats were treated with hMSCs transduced with recombinant, replication-defective Type 5 adenovirus containing the cytomegalovirus promoter and either the BMP-9 (Ad-BMP-9) or the beta-galactosidase (Ad-beta-gal) gene. Ad-beta-gal served as the control. Each animal received a percutaneous, paraspinal injection of 10(6) hMSCs transduced with 50 plaque-forming units/cell adenovirus in the lumbar region, with Ad-BMP-9 on the left and Ad-beta-gal on the right. At 8 weeks postinjection, computed tomographic scans of the lumbosacral spine were obtained, and the lumbosacral spine specimens were examined histologically. RESULTS: Both computed tomographic studies and histological analysis clearly demonstrated large volumes of ectopic bone at the Ad-BMP-9-transduced hMSC injection sites, resulting in successful spinal fusion and no evidence of nerve root compression or local or systemic toxicity. The contralateral regions that were treated with Ad-beta-gal-transduced hMSCs showed no evidence of osteogenesis. CONCLUSION: The results of this study suggest that hMSC and BMP-9 ex vivo gene therapy may be useful in inducing spinal fusion as well as other related procedures and certainly warrants further clinical development. 相似文献

BACKGROUND CONTEXT: Bone morphogenetic proteins (BMPs) are potential therapeutic factors for degenerative discs, and BMP-12 does not have the osteogenic potential of BMP-2, making it better suited for intradiscal injection. However, no reports have compared the actions of BMP-2 and -12 on human annulus fibrosus (AF) and nucleus pulposus (NP) cells nor evaluated adenoviral-mediated gene therapy in human AF cells. PURPOSE: To evaluate and compare the effects of recombinant human (rh) BMP-2, rhBMP-12, and adenoviral BMP-12 (Ad-BMP-12) on nucleus pulposus and annulus fibrosis cell matrix protein synthesis. STUDY DESIGN: In vitro study using rhBMP-2 and -12 and adenoviral BMP-12 with human intervertebral disc (IVD) cells. METHODS: Human NP and AF IVD cells were isolated, maintained in monolayer, and incubated with BMP-2 or -12 for 2 days. AF and NP cells were transduced with Ad-BMP-12, pellets formed, and incubated for 6 days. Growth factor-treated cells were labelled with either 35-S or 3H-proline to assay matrix protein synthesis. RESULTS: rhBMP-2 increased NP proteoglycan, collagen, and noncollagen protein synthesis to 355%, 388%, and 234% of control. RhBMP-12 increased the same NP matrix proteins' synthesis to 140%, 143%, and 160% of control. Effects on AF matrix protein synthesis were minimal. Ad-BMP-12 significantly increased matrix protein synthesis and DNA content of AF and NP cells in pellet culture. NP synthesis of all matrix proteins and AF synthesis of proteoglycans was increased when the data were normalized to pellet DNA. AF synthesis of noncollagen protein and collagen was not modulated by Ad-BMP-12 if the data are normalized to pellet DNA content. CONCLUSIONS: Both rhBMP-2 and -12 increase human NP cell matrix protein synthesis while having minimal effects on AF cells. However, Ad-BMP-12 did increase matrix protein synthesis in both NP and AF cells, making it a potential therapy for enhancing matrix production in the IVD. These responses plus the proliferative action of Ad-BMP-12 seen in the current studies, and the lack of an osteogenic action noted in other studies justifies future studies to determine if gene therapy with BMP-12 could provide protective and/or reparative actions in degenerating discs. 相似文献

Systemically administered fibroblast growth factors (FGFs) show anabolic effects on bone formation in animals, whereas in vitro cell culture studies have demonstrated that FGFs block mineralized bone nodule formation. These apparently contradictory outcomes indicate that the nature of FGF action is complex and that the biological effect of FGFs may depend on the differentiation stage of osteoblasts, interaction with other cytokines, or the length and mode of exposure to factors. Thus, we have utilized primary calvarial bone cell populations at different maturation phases to determine their responses to 2, FGF-9, and BMP-2, the factors expressed in bone. FGF-2 and FGF-9 stimulated proliferation of the cell populations consisting of more mature osteoblasts, but not those with undifferentiated precursor cells. Continuous treatment with FGF-2/-9 inhibited expression of several osteoblast marker genes and mineralization. However, brief pretreatment with FGF-2/-9 or sequential treatment with FGF-2/-9 followed by BMP-2 led to marked stimulation of mineralization, suggesting that FGFs enhance the intrinsic osteogenic potential. Furthermore, FGF-2 and FGF-9 increased expression of other osteogenic factors BMP-2 and TGFbeta-1. Meanwhile, blocking endogenous FGF signaling, using a virally transduced dominant-negative FGF receptor (FgfR), resulted in drastically reduced expression of the BMP-2 gene, demonstrating for the first time that endogenous FGF/FgfR signaling is a positive upstream regulator of the BMP-2 gene in calvarial osteoblasts. In contrast, expression of a BMP antagonist noggin was inhibited by FGF-2 and FGF-9. Thus, collective data from this study suggest that FGF/FgfR signaling enhances the intrinsic osteogenic potential by selectively expanding committed osteogenic cell populations as well as inversely regulating BMP-2 and noggin gene expression. 相似文献

The purpose of this study is to investigate the convenience of bone morphogenetic protein-6 (BMP-6)-loaded chitosan scaffolds with preosteoblastic cells for bone tissue engineering. MC3T3-E1 cells were seeded into three different groups: chitosan scaffolds, BMP-6-loaded chitosan scaffolds, and chitosan scaffolds with free BMP-6 in culture medium. Tissue-engineered constructs were characterized by 3-(4, 5-dimethylthiazol-2-yl)-2,5-diphenyl-tetrazoliumbromide assay, scanning electron microscopy (SEM), mineralization assay (von Kossa), alkaline phosphatase (ALP) activity, and osteocalcin (OCN) assays. BMP-6-loaded chitosan scaffolds supported proliferation of the MC3T3-E1 mouse osteogenic cells in a similar pattern as the unloaded chitosan scaffolds group and as the chitosan scaffolds with free BMP-6 group. SEM images of the cell-seeded scaffolds revealed significant acceleration of extracellular matrix synthesis in BMP-6-loaded chitosan scaffolds. Both levels of ALP and OCN were higher in BMP-6-loaded chitosan scaffold group compared with the other two groups. In addition, BMP-6-loaded scaffolds showed strong staining in mineralization assays. These findings suggest that BMP-6-loaded chitosan scaffold supports cellular functions of the osteoblastic cells; therefore, this scaffold is considered as a new promising vehicle for bone tissue engineering applications. 相似文献

Osteogenic potential of postnatal skeletal muscle-derived stem cells is influenced by donor sex. 总被引:2,自引:0,他引:2

This study compared the osteogenic differentiation of F-MDSCs and M-MDSCs. Interestingly, M-MDSCs expressed osteogenic markers and underwent mineralization more readily than F-MDSCs; a characteristic likely caused by more osteoprogenitor cells within the M-MDSCs than the F-MDSCs and/or an accelerated osteogenic differentiation of M-MDSCs. INTRODUCTION: Although therapies involving stem cells will require both female and male cells, few studies have investigated whether sex-related differences exist in their osteogenic potential. Here, we compared the osteogenic differentiation of female and male mouse skeletal muscle-derived stem cells (F- and M-MDSCs, respectively), a potential cell source for orthopedic tissue engineering. MATERIALS AND METHODS: F- and M-MDSCs were stimulated with bone morphogenetic protein (BMP)4, followed by quantification of alkaline phosphatase (ALP) activity and expression of osteogenic genes. F- and M-MDSCs were also cultured as pellets in osteogenic medium to evaluate mineralization. Single cell-derived colonies of F- and M-MDSCs were stimulated with BMP4, stained for ALP, and scored as either Low ALP+ or High ALP+ to detect the presence of osteoprogenitor cells. F- and M-MDSCs were transduced with a BMP4 retrovirus (MDSC-BMP4 cells) and used for the pellet culture and single cell-derived colony formation assays. As well, F- and M-MDSC-BMP4 cells were implanted in the intramuscular pocket of sex-matched and sex-mismatched hosts, and bone formation was monitored radiographically. RESULTS AND CONCLUSIONS: When stimulated with BMP4, both F- and M-MDSCs underwent osteogenic differentiation, although M-MDSCs had a significantly greater ALP activity and a larger increase in the expression of osteogenic genes than F-MDSCs. In the pellet culture assay, M-MDSCs showed greater mineralization than F-MDSCs. BMP4 stimulation of single cell-derived colonies from M-MDSCs showed higher levels of ALP than those from F-MDSCs. Similar results were obtained with the MDSC-BMP4 cells. In vivo, F-MDSC-BMP4 cells displayed variability in bone area and density, whereas M-MDSC-BMP4 cells showed a more consistent and denser ectopic bone formation. More bone formation was also seen in male hosts compared with female hosts, regardless of the sex of the implanted cells. These results suggest that M-MDSCs may contain more osteoprogenitor cells than F-MDSCs, which may have implications in the development of cellular therapies for bone healing. 相似文献

目的探讨长期动态机械拉伸力对类骨细胞分化及成熟的影响。方法利用机械形变发生装置拉伸类骨细胞,分析类骨细胞是否因拉伸力而使分化更趋成熟。应用Flexercell Strain Unit机械力拉伸装置对MG63及C2C12细胞株施加0~10%的拉伸形变72h。通过碱性磷酸酶(ALP)染色、RT-PCR反应及骨形态发生蛋白-2(BMP-2)添加测试来检测长期动态机械拉伸力对类骨细胞分化的影响。结果拉伸力使MG63细胞的ALP活性约增加2倍,RT-PCR检测显示骨标志物[骨钙素(OCN)及ALP]表达均因拉伸力作用而增加。而单独施加拉伸力并不能增加C2C12肌原细胞内ALP的活性。添加BMP-2培养能促进C2C12细胞向骨细胞分化,并增加细胞ALP的活性。在BMP-2刺激下拉伸力可使C2C12细胞内ALP的活性增加2倍以上。结论本研究确立10%拉伸力能促进类骨细胞向骨细胞分化。对于未分化的肌原细胞,拉伸力刺激并不能使其直接向骨分化,但却能使分化中的骨细胞加速分化或成熟。 相似文献

We compared bone marrow stem cells (BMSCs) and adipose-derived stem cells (ADSCs) of adult rabbits under identical conditions
in terms of their culture characteristics, proliferation capacity, osteogenic differentiation potentials induced by adenovirus-containing
bone morphogenetic protein 4 (Ad-BMP4) in vitro, and capacity to repair calvarial defects in the rabbit model by autologous
transplantation ex vivo. According to the results of growth curve, cell cycle, and telomerase activity analysis, ADSCs possess
a higher proliferation potential. Both of the Ad-BMP4 transduced MSCs expressed BMP4 mRNA and protein and underwent osteogenic
differentiation. Up-regulated mRNA expression of all osteogenic genes was observed in differentiated BMSCs and ADSCs, but
with different patterns confirmed by real-time RT-PCR. Deposition of calcified extracellular matrix was significantly greater
in differentiated ADSCs compared with differentiated BMSCs. X-ray and histological examination indicated significant bone
regeneration in the calvarial defects transplanted with Ad-BMP4 transduced autologous MSCs compared to the control groups.
There was no significant difference in new bone formation in Ad-BMP4 transduced MSCs based on quantitative digital analysis
of histological sections. The use of ADSCs often resulted in the growth of fat tissue structures in the control groups, and
the fat tissue structures were not seen with BMSC cells. Our data demonstrate that BMP4 can be potently osteoinductive in
vivo, resulting in bone repair. ADSCs may be an attractive alternative to BMSCs for bone tissue engineering under appropriate
stimuli. But the easy adipogenic differentiation needs to be considered when choosing adipose tissue for specific clinical
application. 相似文献
