ABSTRACT
BACKGROUND:
Integrins play a prominent role in osteogenic differentiation by transmitting both mechanical and chemical signals. Integrin expression is closely associated with tensile stress, which has a positive effect on osteogenic differentiation. We investigated the relationship between integrin αVß3 and tensile stress.METHODS:
Human fibroblasts were treated with c (RGDyk) and lentivirus transduction to inhibit function of integrin αVß3. Y-15, cytochalasin D and verteporfin were used to inhibit phosphorylation of FAK, polymerization of microfilament and function of nuclear YAP, respectively. Fibroblasts were exposed to a cyclic tensile stress of 10% at 0.5 Hz, once a day for 2 h each application. Fibroblasts were harvested on day 4 and 7 post-treatment. The expression of ALP, RUNX2, integrin αVß3, ß-actin, talin-1, FAK, vinculin, and nuclear YAP was detected by Western blot or qRT-PCR. The expression and distribution of integrin αVß3, vinculin, microfilament and nuclear YAP.RESULTS:
Cyclic tensile stress was found to promote expression of ALP and RUNX2. Inhibition of integrin αVß3 activation downregulated the rearrangement of microfilament and the expression of ALP, RUNX2 and nuclear YAP. When the polymerization of microfilament was inhibited the expression of ALP, RUNX2 and nuclear YAP were decreased. The phosphorylation of FAK induced by cyclic tensile stress reduced by the inhibition of integrin αVß3. The expression of ALP and RUNX2 was decreased by inhibition of phosphorylation of FAK and inhibition of nuclear YAP.CONCLUSIONS:
Cyclic tensile stress promotes osteogenesis of human fibroblasts via integrin αVß3-microfilament axis. Phosphorylation of FAK and nuclear YAP participates in this process.Palavras-chave
