ABSTRACT
Scaffold materials used for bone defect repair are often limited by osteogenic efficacy. Moreover, microRNAs (miRNAs) are involved in regulating the expression of osteogenic-related genes. In previous studies, we verified the enhancement of osteogenesis using a grooved porous hydroxyapatite scaffold (HAG). In the present study, we analyzed the contribution of HAG to the osteogenic differentiation of human placenta-derived mesenchymal stem cells (hPMSCs) from the perspective of miRNA differential expression. Furthermore, results showed that miRNAs were differentially expressed in the osteogenic differentiation of hPMSCs cocultured with HAG. In detail, 16 miRNAs were significantly upregulated and 29 miRNAs were downregulated with HAG. In addition, bioinformatics analyses showed that the differentially expressed miRNAs were enriched in a variety of biological processes, including signal transduction, cell metabolism, cell junctions, cell development and differentiation, and that they were associated with osteogenic differentiation through axon guidance, mitogen-activated protein kinase, and the transforming growth factor beta signaling pathway. Furthermore, multiple potential target genes of these miRNAs were closely related to osteogenic differentiation. Importantly, overexpression of miR-146a-5p (an upregulated miRNA) promoted the osteogenic differentiation of hPMSCs, and miR-145-5p overexpression (a downregulated miRNA) inhibited the osteogenic differentiation of hPMSCs.
