Bone marrow mesenchymal stem cells (BMSCs) have self-renewal potential. Sirt1 regulates cell differentiation and apoptosis. However, Sirt1’s effect on BMSCs osteogenic/adipogenic differentiation has not been fully elucidated. SD rats were randomly divided into Osteoporosis (OP) group and sham operation group. OP rat BMSCs were isolated and assigned into control group, NC group and Sirt1 siRNA group followed by analysis of Sirt1 level by Real-time PCR, cell proliferation by MTT assay, expression of OC, OPN and FABP4 level by real time PCR, and β-Catenin/TCF1/Runx2 protein expression by Western blot. In OP group, Sirt1 expression was significantly increased and BMSCs proliferation was decreased along with reduced OC and OPN mRNA expression, increased FABP4 expression and reduced β-Catenin/TCF1/Runx2 expression compared with sham operation group (P < 0.05). In Sirt1 siRNA group, Sirt1 expression was significantly reduced, BMSCs proliferation was increased, OC and OPN mRNA expression was increased, FABP4 expression was decreased, and β-Catenin/TCF1/Runx2 expression was increased compared to OP group (P < 0.05). Sirt1 is increased in osteoporosis. Down-regulating Sirt1 in osteoporotic BMSCs can regulate β-Catenin/TCF1/Runx2 signaling and promote BMSCs osteogenic differentiation and inhibit adipogenic differentiation.

Cartilage injury of the knee joint is very common. Due to the limited self-healing ability of articular cartilage, osteoarthritis is very likely to occur if left untreated. Bone marrow mesenchymal stem cells (BMMSCs) are widely used in the study of cartilage injury due to their low immunity and good amplification ability, but they still have disadvantages, such as heterogeneous undifferentiated cells. MicroRNAs can regulate the chondrogenic differentiation ability of MSCs by inhibiting or promoting mRNA translation and degradation. In this research, we primarily investigated the effect of microRNA-210-3p (miR-210-3p) on chondrogenic and adipogenic differentiation of BMMSCs in vitro. Our results demonstrate that miR-210-3p promoted chondrogenic differentiation and inhibited adipogenic differentiation of rat BMMSCs, which was related to the HIF-3α signalling pathway. Additionally, miR-210-3p promotes mRNA and protein levels of the chondrogenic expression genes COLII and SOX9 and inhibits mRNA and protein levels of the adipogenic expression genes PPARγ and LPL. Thus, miR-210-3p combined with BMMSCs is a candidate for future clinical applications in cartilage regeneration and could represent a promising new therapeutic target for OA.

Abstract Background This study was conducted with the aim of exploring the effect of the BMP signaling pathway on osteoblastic differentiation in rat bone marrow mesenchymal stem cells (rBMSCs) in rats with osteoporosis (OP). Methods The bilateral ovaries of female SD rats were resected for the establishment of a rat OP model. The osteoblastic differentiation of isolated rBMSCs was identified through osteogenic induction. Adipogenetic induction and flow cytometry (FCM) were used to detect adipogenic differentiation and the expression of rBMSC surface markers. The rBMSCs were grouped into the blank group, NC group, si-BMP2 group, and oe-BMP2 group. The expression levels of key factors and osteogenesis-related factors were determined by Western blot and quantitative real-time polymerase chain reaction (qRT-PCR). The formation of calcified nodules was observed by alizarin red staining. ALP activity was measured by alkaline phosphatase staining. Results The rats with OP had greater weight but decreased bone mineral density (BMD) than normal rats (all P < 0.01). The rBMSCs from rats with OP were capable of osteoblastic differentiation and adipogenic differentiation and showed high expression of CD44 (91.3 ± 2.9%) and CD105 (94.8 ± 2.1%). Compared with the blank group, the oe-BMP2 group had elevated BMP-2 and Smad1 levels and an increase in calcified nodules and ALP-positive staining areas (all P < 0.05). Moreover, the expression levels of Runx2, OC, and OPN in the oe-BMP2 group were relatively higher than those in the blank group (all P < 0.05). The findings in the si-BMP2 group were opposite to those in the oe-BMP2 group. Conclusion BMP signaling pathways activated by BMP-2 can promote the osteoblastic differentiation of rBMSCs from rats with OP.
