RESUMEN
Objective: Our previous study found that it could significantly increase the expression of IL32 after stimulating the human umbilical cord mesenchymal stem cells (S-HuMSCs). However, its role on the osteogenesis and cranial bone regeneration is still largely unknown. Here, we investigated the possible mechanism of this effect. Material and Methods. A series of experiments, including single-cell sequencing, flow cytometry, quantitative real-time polymerase chain reaction, and western blotting, were carried out to evaluate the characteristic and adipogenic-osteogenic differentiation potential of IL-32 overexpression HuMSCs (IL-32highHuMSCs) through mediating the P38 signaling pathway. Moreover, a rat skull bone defect model was established and treated by directly injecting the IL-32highHuMSCs to conduct its role on the cranial bone regeneration. Results: In total, it found that compared to HuMSCs, IL32 was significantly increased and promoted the osteogenic differentiation (lower expressions of PPARγ, Adiponectin, and C/EBPα, and increased expressions of RUNX2, ALP, BMP2, OPN, SP7, OCN, and DLX5) in the S-HuMSCs (P < 0.05). Meanwhile, the enhanced osteogenic differentiation of HuMSCs was recovered by IL-32 overexpression (IL-32highHuMSCs) through activating the P38 signaling pathway, like as the S-HuMSCs (P < 0.05). However, the osteogenic differentiation potential of IL-32highHuMSCs was significantly reversed by the P38 signaling pathway inhibitor SB203580 (P < 0.05). Additionally, the HuMSCs, S-HuMSCs, and IL-32highHuMSCs all presented adipogenic-osteogenic differentiation potential, with higher levels of CD73, CD90, and CD105, and lower CD14, CD34, and CD45 (P > 0.05). Furthermore, these findings were confirmed by the rat skull bone defect model, in which the cranial bone regeneration was more pronounced in the IL-32highHuMSCs treated group compared to those in the HuMSCs group, with higher expressions of RUNX2, ALP, BMP2, and DLX5 (P < 0.05). Conclusion: We have confirmed that S-HuMSCs can enhance the osteogenesis and cranial bone regeneration through promoting IL-32-mediated P38 signaling pathway, which is proved that IL-32 may be a therapeutic target, or a biomarker for the treatment of cranial bone injuries.
RESUMEN
Patients with diabetic osteoporosis (DOP) often suffer from poor osseointegration of artificial implants, which is a challenge that affects implant outcomes. The osteogenic differentiation ability of human jaw bone marrow mesenchymal stem cells (JBMMSCs) is the key to implant osseointegration. Studies have shown that the microenvironment of hyperglycemia affects the osteogenic differentiation of mesenchymal stem cells (MSC), but the mechanism is still unclear. Therefore, the aim of this study was to isolate and culture JBMMSCs from surgically derived bone fragments from DOP patients and control patients to investigate the differences in their osteogenic differentiation ability and to elucidate its mechanisms. The results showed that the osteogenic ability of hJBMMSCs was significantly decreased in the DOP environment. Mechanism study showed that the expression of senescence marker gene P53 was significantly increased in DOP hJBMMSCs compared to control hJBMMSCs according to RNA-sequencing result. Further, DOP hJBMMSCs were found to display significant senescence using ß-galactosidase staining, mitochondrial membrane potential and ROS assay, qRT-PCR and WB analysis. Overexpression of P53 in hJBMMSCs, knockdown of P53 in DOP hJBMMSCs, and knockdown followed by overexpression of P53 significantly affected the osteogenic differentiation ability of hJBMMSCs. These results suggest that MSC senescence is an important reason for decreasing osteogenic capacity in DOP patients. P53 is a key target in regulating hJBMMSCs aging, and knocking down P53 can effectively restore the osteogenic differentiation ability of DOP hJBMMSCs and promote osteosynthesis in DOP dental implants. It provided a new idea to elucidate the pathogenesis and treatment of diabetic bone metabolic diseases.
