Mutant hFGF23(A12D) stimulates osteoblast differentiation through FGFR3

Fibroblast growth factor (FGF) 23 is a member of the FGF family involved in bone development by interacting with FGFRs. In a previous study, we discovered a mutant human FGF (hFGF) 23 (A12D) in the mandibular prognathism (MP) pedigree. However, the exact role of hFGF23(A12D) during bone formation remains unclear. The aim of this study was to identify the function of hFGF23(A12D) in bone formation. We infected isolated rat calvaria (RC) cells with the recombinant lentivirus containing mutant hFGF23(A12D) and WT hFGF23 respectively. Real‐time PCR, western blot and enzyme‐linked immunosorbent assay confirmed that hFGF23(A12D) failed to be secreted. We measured cell growth via the CCK‐8 assay based on Zsgreen expression, detected cell differentiation ability via alkaline phosphatase staining, performed RT‐PCR and found that hFGF23(A12D) inhibited proliferation of RC cells and stimulated the differentiation of RC cells to osteoblasts. Through RNA sequencing, RT‐PCR and western blot, we found increased expression of FGFR3. Through co‐immunoprecipitation assays and immunofluorescence staining, we revealed that hFGF23(A12D) activated the mitogen‐activated protein kinase signalling pathway through interactions with the intracellular domain of FGFR3. In summary, we determined the mechanisms of hFGF23(A12D) involved in osteoblast generation and formation which is specifically due to its interaction with FGFR3.     

MicroRNA‐98 regulates osteogenic differentiation of human bone mesenchymal stromal cells by targeting BMP2

To study the effects of microRNA‐98 (miR‐98) on human bone mesenchymal stromal cells (hBMSCs). The patients undergoing hip arthroplasty were selected by inclusion/exclusion criteria for this study. The extracted hBMSCs were detected of osteogenic differentiation by alizarin red S staining, and of cell phenotype by flow cytometry. Bioinformatics, dual luciferase report, western blotting, RT‐PCR and immunoblotting were used in our study. The hBMSCs were divided into miR‐98 mimics, miR‐98 negative control (NC), miR‐98 inhibitors, Mock and miR‐98 inhibitors + siBMP2 groups. Human bone mesenchymal stromal cells were extracted and purified in vitro and had specific cytological morphology, surface markers and abilities of self‐renewal and differentiation. Compared with the NC group and Mock group, the miR‐98 mimics group showed increased miR‐98 level while the miR‐98 inhibitors group decreased miR‐98 level (both P < 0.01). Dual luciferase reporter showed BMP2 was the target gene of miR‐98. The levels of mRNA and protein expression of BMP2, protein expression of RUNX2, alkaline phosphatase activity and osteocalcin content significantly decreased in the miR‐98 mimics group while increased in the miR‐98 inhibitors group and showed no changes in the NC group and Mock group (all P < 0.05). The miR‐98 mimics group showed obviously declined stained red particles and the miR‐98 inhibitors group showed opposite result. After lowering the expression of miR‐98, osteogenic differentiation ability of hBMSCs rose, which was weakened by the transfection with siBMP2. miR‐98 may regulate osteogenic differentiation of hBMSCs by targeting BMP2.

Involvement of endogenous bone morphogenetic protein (BMP) 2 and BMP6 in bone formation

Although accumulated evidence has shown the bone anabolic effects of bone morphogenetic proteins (BMPs) that were exogenously applied in vitro and in vivo, the roles of endogenous BMPs during bone formation remain to be clarified. This study initially investigated expression patterns of BMPs in the mouse long bone and found that BMP2 and BMP6 were the main subtypes expressed in hypertrophic chondrocytes that induce endochondral bone formation. We then examined the involvement of the combination of these BMPs in bone formation in vivo by generating the compound-deficient mice (Bmp2+/-;Bmp6-/-). Under physiological conditions, these mice exhibited moderate growth retardation compared with the wild-type (WT) littermates during the observation period up to 52 weeks of age. Both the fetal and adult compound-deficient mice showed a reduction in the trabecular bone volume with suppressed bone formation, but normal bone resorption, whereas the single deficient mice (Bmp2+/- or Bmp6-/-) did not. When a fracture was created at the femoral midshaft and the bone healing was analyzed, the endochondral bone formation, but not intramembranous bone formation, was impaired by the compound deficiency. In the cultures of bone marrow cells, however, there was no difference in osteogenic differentiation between WT and compound-deficient cells in the presence or absence of the exogenous BMP2. We thus concluded that endogenous BMP2 and BMP6 cooperatively play pivotal roles in bone formation under both physiological and pathological conditions.
