Aim: To investigate the effect of cartilage extracellular matrix (ECM) particle size on the chondrogenic differentiation of bone marrow-derived mesenchymal stem cells (BMSCs). Materials & methods: BMSCs were seeded into the scaffolds fabricated by small particle ECM materials and large particle ECM materials. For the positive control, chondrogenically induced BMSCs were seeded into commercial poly-lactic-glycolic acid scaffolds. Macroscopic observation, histological and immunohistochemical staining, mechanical testing and biochemical analysis were performed to the cell-scaffold constructs. Results: BMSCs in small particle ECM materials and poly-lactic-glycolic acid scaffolds were induced to differentiate into chondrocytes, while BMSCs in the large particle ECM materials scaffold did not differentiate into chondrocytes. Conclusion: The small ECM particle materials improved the induction ability of the cartilage ECM-derived scaffold.

Hyaluronan Binding

Mesenchymal stem cells (MSCs) obtained from various sources, including bone marrow, have been proposed as a therapeutic strategy for the improvement of tissue repair/regeneration, including the repair of cartilage defects or lesions. Often the highly inflammatory environment after injury or during diseases, however, greatly diminishes the therapeutic and reparative effectiveness of MSCs. Therefore, the identification of novel factors that can protect MSCs against an inflammatory environment may enhance the effectiveness of these cells in repairing tissues, such as articular cartilage. In this study, we investigated whether a peptide (P15-1) that binds to hyaluronan (HA), a major component of the extracellular matrix of cartilage, protects bone-marrow-derived MSCs (BMSCs) in an inflammatory environment. The results showed that P15-1 reduced the mRNA levels of catabolic and inflammatory markers in interleukin-1beta (IL-1β)-treated human BMSCs. In addition, P15-1 enhanced the attachment of BMSCs to HA-coated tissue culture dishes and stimulated the chondrogenic differentiation of the multipotential murine C3H/10T1/2 MSC line in a micromass culture. In conclusion, our findings suggest that P15-1 may increase the capacity of BMSCs to repair cartilage via the protection of these cells in an inflammatory environment and the stimulation of their attachment to an HA-containing matrix and chondrogenic differentiation.

Micro Pattern

The mechanical stimulation from extracellular matrix could regulate physiological behavior of cells through the mechanism of mechanotransduction. Previous researches had shown that apoptosis could be regulated by the size of the cell adhesion area.However, the regulation of cell apoptosis by different adhesion shape with the same area is still unclear. This workfocused on the regulation of apoptosis for bone marrow mesenchymal stem cells (MSCs) by different circularity and area of adhesion geometry. We manufactured micro-pattern surface which was suitable for adhesion of MSCs by the technique of micro-contact printing. Three typesof geometry for individual is land of micro-pattern were designed. We adopted terminal-deoxynucleoitidyl transfer as emediated nick end labeling (TUNEL) method to detectcell apoptosis. This research shows that the adhesion geometry which has smaller area and greater circularity will promote apoptosis of MSCs. This indicates that MSCsmay prefer to live on the surface without any restrict. Ourstudies focused on the significantly important problem about interaction between extracellular matrix and physiological behavior of mesenchymal stem cells.
