This study aims at investigating the mechanism underlying bone marrow mesenchymal stem cells (BMSC) function in glioma. Glioma cells were administered with plasmids loading NF-κB siRNA, microRNA (miRNA)-189 inhibitor, or miR-189 mimics for transfection followed by analysis of miR-189 expression by RT-qPCR, cell apoptosis by flow cytometry, cell proliferation by MTT assay,invasion and migration by Transwell assay, inflammatory factors secretion by ELISA as well as proteins expression by western blot. A mouse model of glioma was established to detect the in vivo effect of BMSCs. miR-189 was lowly expressed in glioma cell lines but enriched in BMSCs. When miR-189 was silenced, cell proliferation, invasion and migration were potentiated and apoptosis was decreased, along with enhancement of N-cadherin, Vimentin, MMP-2 and and MMP-9, and decline in Bax, cleaved casepase-3 and cleaved PARP. Silencing of NF-κB reversed the effect of miR-189 inhibitor on cell progression, accompanied with reduction of inflammatory factors. BMSCs treatment effectively promoted miR-189 expression in glioma and inactivated TNF-α/NF-κB signaling, thereby suppressing tumor growth. In conclusion, miR-189 derived from BMSC inhibits glioma progression through regulation of TNF-α/NF-κB signaling pathway.

Bone marrow mesenchymal stem cells (BMSCs) can be multi-directionally differentiated and are widely used in tissue engineering. 25-hydroxycholesterol (25-HC) can induce osteogenesis and is involved in osteogenic formation. However, the role of 25-hydroxycholesterol in BMSCs is unclear. Rat BMSCs were isolated and divided into control group and 25-HC treatment (2 and 4 μM) group. Cell proliferation was detected by MTT assay. Caspase-3 and ALP activity was analyzed. Real time PCR was done to analyze Runx2, OPN, FABP4 and PPARγ2 expression. Red staining detects the calcified nodule formation. Wnt5 level was detected by western blot and TGF-β secretion was analyzed by ELISA. 25-HC treatment significantly inhibited cell proliferation, increased Caspase 3 activity, decreased ALP activity and the expression of Runx2 and OPN, increased expression of FABP4 and PPARγ2, decreased formation of calcified nodules, secretion of TGF-β and reduced expression of Wnt5 compared to control group (P < 0.05), and the above changes were significant with the increase of the concentration of 25-HC (P < 0.05). 25-hydroxycholesterol regulates the proliferation and apoptosis of BMSCs by regulating Wnt5/TGF-β signaling pathway, inhibiting the differentiation of BMSCs into osteogenic direction and promoting its adipogenic differentiation.

Bone marrow mesenchymal stem cells (BMSCs) osteogenic differentiation plays an important role in Osteoporosis (OP). LncRNA DGCR5 participates in OP development. However, LncRNA DGCR5's effect on BMSCs in osteoporosis rats and related mechanisms have not been elucidated. SD rats were divided into control group and OP group. Rat BMSCs were cultured and transfected with LncRNA DGCR5 siRNA followed by analysis of LncRNA DGCR5 expression by Real time PCR, cell proliferation by MTT assay, Caspase 3 activity, of ERK/P38 signaling pathway protein expression by Western blot, ALP activity, and the osteogenic genes Runx2 and OC expression by Real time PCR. LncRNA DGCR51 expression was increased in BMSCs of OP rats. Compared with control group, cell proliferation was significantly inhibited, Caspase 3 activity was increased, p-ERK1/2 and p-P38 were downregulated, ALP activity, Runx2 and OC expression was decreased (P < 0.05). DGCR51 siRNA transfection into OP rat BMSCs significantly reduced DGCR51 expression, promoted cell proliferation, decreased Caspase 3 activity, increased p-ERK1/2 and p-P38 expression, increased ALP activity, Runx2 and OC expression compared to OP group (P < 0.05). LncRNA DGCR51 expression is increased in OP rat BMSCs. Down-regulation of LncRNA DGCR51 promoted the activation of ERK/P38 signaling pathway, thereby inhibiting the apoptosis of BMSCs and promoting proliferation and osteogenic differentiation of BMSC in OP rats.

Severe spinal cord injury (SCI) is caused by external mechanical injury, resulting in unrecoverable neurological injury. Recent studies have shown that exosomes derived from bone marrow mesenchymal stem cells (BMSCs-Exos) might be valuable paracrine molecules in the treatment of SCI. In this study, we designed SCI models in vivo and in vitro and then investigated the possible mechanism of successful repair by BMSCs-Exos. In vivo, we established one Sham group and two SCI model groups. The Basso, Beattie, Bresnahan (BBB) scores showed that BMSCs-Exos could effectively promote the recovery of spinal cord function. The results of the Nissl staining, immunohistochemistry, and TUNEL/NeuN/DAPI double staining showed that BMSCs-Exos inhibited neuronal apoptosis. Western blot analysis showed that the protein expression level of Bcl-2 was significantly increased in the BMSCs-Exos group compared with the PBS group, while the protein expression levels of Bax, cleaved caspase-3, and cleaved caspase-9 were significantly decreased. The results of western bolt and qRT-PCR demonstrated that BMSCs-Exos could activate the Wnt/β-catenin signaling pathway effectively. In vitro, we found that inhibition of the Wnt/β-catenin signaling pathway could promote neuronal apoptosis following lipopolysaccharide (LPS) induction. These results demonstrated that BMSCs-Exos may be a promising therapeutic for SCI by activating the Wnt/β-catenin signaling pathway.

We aimed to explore the mechanism by how LX4211 affects bone marrow mesenchymal stem cells (BMSCs) during ischemia-reperfusion (I/R). BMSCs were extracted and treated with LX4211 followed by analysis of cell proliferation and migration by CCK-8, Transwell assay and wound healing tests, cell apoptosis and cycle by flow cytometry, exosomes and VEGFA secretion by immunoenzyme-linked adsorption. BMSCs treated with LX4211 or DMSO were administrated into mice with blood perfusion and capillary or arteriolar density was detected. Treatment with LX4211 significantly inhibited BMSCs proliferation, increased apoptosis and activated AMPK/ACC signaling along with reduced the number of exosomes and VEGFA level and impaired physiological functions. In vivo experiments determined that LX4211 alleviated I/R of lower limbs by inhibiting the muscle retention of BMSCs and paracrine. In conclusion, LX4211 treatment can delay the blood recovery of ischemic non-diabetic mice by reducing the proliferation, migration and impairing paracrine of BMSCs.

Bone marrow mesenchymal stem cells (BMSCs) can treat osteoporosis. Whether GNAS affects BMSCs osteogenic differentiation under high glucose condition is unknown. Rat BMSCs were isolated and randomly divided into control group, high glucose group and GNAS group. The BMSCs were transfected with GNAS plasmid in high glucose environment followed by analysis of GNAS expression by Real time PCR and Western blot, BMSCs proliferation by MTT assay, Caspase 3 activity, ALP activity, formation of calcified nodules by alizarin red staining, OC and BMP-2 expression by Real time PCR and expression of ERK/P38 signaling pathway protein by Western blot. In high glucose environment, GNAS expression was significantly decreased, cell proliferation was inhibited, Caspase 3 activity was increased, along with decreased ALP activity, calcified nodules formation and expression of OC, BMP-2, p-ERK1/2 and p-P38 (P < 0.05). GNAS plasmid transfected into high glucose environment BMSCs can significantly promote GNAS expression and cell proliferation, decrease Caspase 3 activity, increase p-ERK1/2 and p-P38 expression, ALP activity and calcified nodules formation as well as increase OC and BMP-2 expression (P < 0.05). GNAS1 expression is decreased in BMSCs cells in a high glucose environment. Overexpression of GNAS1 can inhibit the apoptosis of BMSCs by regulating the ERK/P38 signaling pathway, promote its proliferation and differentiation into osteogenic direction.

Apoptosis And Inflammation

Spinal cord injury (SCI) is one of the most common destructive injuries, which may lead to permanent neurological dysfunction. Currently, transplantation of bone marrow mesenchymal stem cells (BMSCs) in experimental models of SCI shows promise as effective therapies. BMSCs secrete various factors that can regulate the microenvironment, which is called paracrine effect. Among these paracrine substances, exosomes are considered to be the most valuable therapeutic factors. Our study found that BMSCs-derived exosomes therapy attenuated cell apoptosis and inflammation response in the injured spinal cord tissues. In in vitro studies, BMSCs-derived exosomes significantly inhibited lipopolysaccharide (LPS)-induced PC12 cell apoptosis, reduced the secretion of pro-inflammatory factors including tumor necrosis factor (TNF)-α and IL (interleukin)-1β and promoted the secretion of anti-inflammatory factors including IL-10 and IL-4. Moreover, we found that LPS-induced protein expression of toll-like receptor 4 (TLR4), myeloid differentiation factor 88 (MyD88) and nuclear transcription factor-κB (NF-κB) was significantly downregulated after treatment with BMSCs-derived exosomes. In in vivo studies, we found that hindlimb motor function was significantly improved in SCI rats with systemic administration of BMSCs-derived exosomes. We also observed that the expression of pro-apoptotic proteins and pro-inflammatory factors was significantly decreased, while the expression of anti-apoptotic proteins and anti-inflammatory factors were upregulated in SCI rats after exosome treatment. In conclusion, BMSCs-derived exosomes can inhibit apoptosis and inflammation response induced by injury and promote motor function recovery by inhibiting the TLR4/MyD88/NF-κB signaling pathway, which suggests that BMSCs-derived exosomes are expected to become a new therapeutic strategy for SCI.
