Abstract Background: Bone marrow mesenchymal stem cells can promote the recovery of immune balance and regulate the balance of Th1/2 cells. Allergic rhinitis is a disease with Th1/2 imbalance mediated by IgE. It’s unclear whether BMSCs could regulate AR disease. In this study, the possible role of BMSCs was explored. Methods : AR mouse model was established by ovalbumin (OVA). 18 models were randomly divided into three groups: AR-sensitized, Stem-cell-returned, Medium-returned; six unsensitized mouses named normal-control. IgE, IL-4 and INF-γ levels were measured by Elisa. Observing migration of BMSCs by immunofluorescence. Flow cytometry used to detect changes of Th1/2. STAT 4/6 protein level was detected by Western-blot. Results : After OVA-sensitization, IgE, IL-4 and STAT6 levels were higher, INF-γ and STAT4 level was lower. Flow cytometry revealed a decrease in Th1 cell and an increase in Th2 cell in AR group. After BMSCs treatment, t IgE, IL-4 and STAT6 levels in SCRg and MRg were lower than that in AR group, and tINF-γ and STAT4 level were higher than hat inAR group. Flow cytometry showed that the content of Th1 cell increased while Th2 cell decreased. Conclusions: BMSCs return treatment could decrease the expression of IL-4, promote the expression of INF-γ and regulate the balance of Th cell, and the mechanism was closely related to STAT4/6 signaling pathway. However there was no statistical difference between SCRg and MRg, so the role of BMSCs maybe achieved through paracrine function rather than multi-directional differentiation potential.

AbstractMesenchymal stem cells (MSCs) are important in regenerative medicine because of their potential for multi-differentiation. Bone marrow, chorion and placenta have all been suggested as potential sources for clinical application. However, the osteogenic differentiation potential of MSCs derived from chorion or placenta is not very efficient. Bone morphogenetic protein-2 (BMP-2) plays an important role in bone development. Its effect on osteogenic augmentation has been addressed in several studies. Recent studies have also shown a relationship between miRNAs and osteogenesis. We hypothesized that miRNAs targeted to Runt-related transcription factor 2 (Runx-2), a major transcription factor of osteogenesis, are responsible for regulating the differentiation of MSCs into osteoblasts. This study examines the effect of BMP-2 on the osteogenic differentiation of MSCs isolated from chorion and placenta in comparison to bone marrow-derived MSCs and investigates the role of miRNAs in the osteogenic differentiation of MSCs from these sources. MSCs were isolated from human bone marrow, chorion and placenta. The osteogenic differentiation potential after BMP-2 treatment was examined using ALP staining, ALP activity assay, and osteogenic gene expression. Candidate miRNAs were selected and their expression levels during osteoblastic differentiation were examined using real-time RT-PCR. The role of these miRNAs in osteogenesis was investigated by transfection with specific miRNA inhibitors. The level of osteogenic differentiation was monitored after anti-miRNA treatment. MSCs isolated from chorion and placenta exhibited self-renewal capacity and multi-lineage differentiation potential similar to MSCs isolated from bone marrow. BMP-2 treated MSCs showed higher ALP levels and osteogenic gene expression compared to untreated MSCs. All investigated miRNAs (miR-31, miR-106a and miR148) were consistently downregulated during the process of osteogenic differentiation. After treatment with miRNA inhibitors, ALP activity and osteogenic gene expression increased over the time of osteogenic differentiation. BMP-2 has a positive effect on osteogenic differentiation of chorion- and placenta-derived MSCs. The inhibition of specific miRNAs enhanced the osteogenic differentiation capacity of various MSCs in culture and this strategy might be used to promote bone regeneration. However, further in vivo experiments are required to assess the validity of this approach.

We aimed to explore the effects of rat bone marrow mesenchymal stem cells (BMSCs) on osteogenic differentiation via analyzing miR-3148 expression in patients with osteoporosis. Realtime quantitative PCR was conducted for assessing microRNA-3148 expression. BMSCs from SD rats were transfected with microRNA-3148 mimics and microRNA-3148 inhibitor via liposomal trans-fection method utilizing Lipo2000, followed by analysis of microRNA-3148 level. After 10-days of osteogenic differentiation induction, alkaline phosphatase (ALP) staining and alizarin red (ARS) staining were done to investigate the osteogenic differentiation potential. Simultaneously, qRT-PCR measured the expression of osteogenesis marker genes (BMP and Runx2) in each group. qRT-PCR analysis revealed a high expression of miR-3148 in the bone tissue and the serum samples from patients with osteoporosis in comparison with healthy individuals. In addition, miRNA-3148 mimics could retard the osteogenic differentiation of BMSCs, while microRNA-3148 inhibitor could prompt the procedure. MicroRNA-3148 was highly expressed in the skeletal tissues and the serum samples from patients with osteoporosis and it could restrain the differentiation of BMSCs into osteoblasts, suggesting that it might be a novel therapeutic target for treating osteoporosis.
