脐带间充质干细胞与再生障碍性贫血

再生障碍性贫血(aplastic anemia,AA)是由于物理、化学、生物或不明因素作用使骨髓造血干细胞和骨髓微环境严重受损,造成骨髓造血功能降低或衰竭,以全血细胞减少为主要表现的一组综合征。间充质干细胞(MSC)是属于中胚层的一类多能干细胞,主要存在于结缔组织和器官间质中。不仅具有多向分化潜能,还有多种免疫调节作用。许多研究表明MSCs抑制同种异体效应T淋巴细胞增殖,还能下调T淋巴细胞表面的活化分子CD25、CD38、CD69的表达。MSCs对DCs的分化、成熟和活化具有抑制作用,改变DCs的细胞因子分泌,使成熟的DCl分泌TNF-a减少,DC2分泌IL-10增加,从而抑制T淋巴细胞增殖。MSCs能够抑制IL-2和IL-15介导的NK细胞增殖,使IL-2刺激NK细胞分泌的IFN-y减少。通过这些机制来干预再生障碍性贫血,同时研究发现MSCs免疫原性较低。尤其脐带MSC,因为其独特优势,目前已经成为干细胞干预治疗AA的研究热点。

摘要: 通过人胚胎干细胞(Human embryonic stem cells, hESCs)经体内分化获取间充质干细胞(Mesenchymal stem cells, MSCs)为人胚胎干细胞提供一种新的滋养层。将约5×106个hESCs注射入重症免疫联合缺陷小鼠形成畸胎瘤, 8周后再从畸胎瘤中分离MSCs并鉴定, 将MSCs作为hESCs的滋养层细胞, 并检测和观察hESCs的生长情况、细胞特性和分化能力。从畸胎瘤中获得了纯度较高的具有类似骨髓来源的MSC特性的细胞群, 其形态相似、表面抗原标志相似(CD34和CD45阴性, CD29、CD49b、CD105、CD73和CD90阳性), 经诱导可以向成骨细胞和成脂细胞分化。将hESCs在MSCs滋养层细胞上传代培养10代以上, hESCs依然具有正常的细胞形态, 反转录PCR证实其特异转录因子Oct4、Nanog的表达, 干细胞表面标记SSEA-1显示为阴性, SSEA-4、TRA-1-60、TRA-1-81显示为阳性, 碱性磷酸酶染色显示为阳性, 并且核型正常。体外EB形成和体内畸胎瘤形成证明了其全能性。因此来源于hESCs本身的MSCs可以被用来作为支持胚胎干细胞生长并维持其未分化状态的滋养层细胞。

Increased adipogenesis of osteoporotic human-mesenchymal stem cells (MSCs) characterizes by impaired leptin action

The bone marrow contains mesenchymal stem cells (MSCs) that differentiate to the osteogenic and adipogenic lineages. The fact that the decrease in bone volume of age-related osteoporosis is accompanied by an increase in marrow adipose tissue implies the importance that the adipogenic process may have in bone loss. We previously observed that MSCs from control and osteoporotic women showed differences in their capacity to differentiate into the osteogenic and adipogenic pathways. In vitro studies indicate that bone marrow stromal cells are responsive to leptin, which increases their proliferation, differentiation to osteoblasts, and the number of mineralized nodules, but inhibits their differentiation to adipocytes. The aim of the present report was to study the direct effect of leptin on control and osteoporotic MSCs analyzing whether the protective effect of leptin against osteoporosis could be expressed by inhibition of adipocyte differentiation. MSCs from control, and osteoporotic donors were subjected to adipogenic conditions, in the absence or in the presence of 62.5 nM leptin. The number of adipocytes, the content of PPARgamma protein, and mRNA, and leptin mRNA were measured by flow cytometry, Western blot, and RT-PCR, respectively. Results indicate that control and osteoporotic MSCs differ in their adipogenic potential as shown by expression of active PPARgamma protein. Leptin exerted an antiadipogenic effect only on control MSCs increasing the proportion of inactive phosphorylated PPARgamma protein. Finally, results obtained during adipogenesis of osteoporotic cells suggest that this process is abnormal not only because of increased adipocyte number, but because of impaired leptin cells response.

Isolation murine mesenchymal stem cells by positive selection

Isolation and purification of mesenchymal stem cells (MSCs) from mouse via plastic adherent cultures is arduous because of the unwanted growth of hematopoietic cells and non-MSCs. In this work, homogenous populations of CD34⁺ MSCs from mouse bone marrow were isolated via positive selection. For this purpose, C57Bl/6 mice were killed and bone marrow cells were aspirated before incubation with magnetic bead conjugated to anti-CD34 antibody. A sample of positively selected CD34⁺ cells were prepared for flow cytometry to examine the expression of CD34 antigen and others were subcultured in a 25-cm² culture flask. To investigate the mesenchymal nature, the plastic adherent cultivated cells were induced to differentiate along osteoblastic and adipogenic lineages. Furthermore, the expression of some surface markers was investigated by flow cytometry. According to the result, purified populations of fibroblast-like CD34⁺ cells were achieved in the first passage (1 wk after culture initiation). The cells expressed CD34, CD44, Sca-1, and Vcam-1 antigens (markers) but not CD11b and CD45. They were capable of differentiating into osteocytes and adipocytes. This study indicated that our protocol can result in the efficient isolation of homogenous populations of MSCs from C57BL/6 mouse bone marrow. We have shown that murine bone marrow-derived CD34⁺ cells with plastic adherent properties and capability of differentiating into skeletal lineages in vitro are MSCs.     

Mesenchymal stem cells from osteoporotic patients produce a type I collagen-deficient extracellular matrix favoring adipogenic differentiation

Mesenchymal stem cells (MSCs), precursor cells resident in the bone marrow, have the capacity to differentiate into bone, cartilage, fat, and connective tissue. We have recently reported that MSCs from "healthy" donors differ from cells obtained from osteoporotic postmenopausal women in their proliferation rate, mitogenic response to osteogenic growth factors, and potential to mineralize. The purpose of this study was to examine the factors that explain the differential capacity of MSCs derived from "healthy" control and osteoporotic postmenopausal women to support mineralization. In addition, we examined the factors that regulate the differentiation of osteoporotic cells into adipocytes. For this purpose, we isolated MSCs from bone marrow of donors and analyzed the synthesis and deposition of type I collagen, the main component of bone extracellular matrix, the time course of gelatinolytic activity expression, the deposition of transforming growth factor beta (TGF-beta), and the ability of cells to differentiate into adipocytes. Our results indicate that cells derived from osteoporotic donors synthesized 50% less type I collagen than normal cells and maintained higher levels of gelatinolytic activity under differentiation conditions (70% versus 15% after 14 days in culture). MSCs derived from osteoporotic women produced 60-65% less TGF-beta and expressed higher adipogenic capacity. We conclude that the capacity of MSCs derived from osteoporotic postmenopausal women to generate and maintain type I collagen-rich extracellular matrix is decreased, favoring their adipogenic differentiation. These observations may explain the decreased mineralization previously observed in these types of cells.     

Protein Malnutrition Induces Bone Marrow Mesenchymal Stem Cells Commitment to Adipogenic Differentiation Leading to Hematopoietic Failure

Protein malnutrition (PM) results in pathological changes that are associated with peripheral leukopenia, bone marrow (BM) hypoplasia and alterations in the BM microenvironment leading to hematopoietic failure; however, the mechanisms involved are poorly understood. In this context, the BM mesenchymal stem cells (MSCs) are cells intimately related to the formation of the BM microenvironment, and their differentiation into adipocytes is important because adipocytes are cells that have the capability to negatively modulate hematopoiesis. Two-month-old male Balb/c mice were subjected to protein-energy malnutrition with a low-protein diet containing 2% protein, whereas control animals were fed a diet containing 12% protein. The hematopoietic parameters and the expression of CD45 and CD117 positive cells in the BM were evaluated. MSCs were isolated from BM, and their capability to produce SCF, IL-3, G-CSF and GM-CSF were analyzed. The expression of PPAR-γ and C/EBP-α as well as the expression of PPAR-γ and SREBP mRNAs were evaluated in MSCs together with their capability to differentiate into adipocytes in vitro. The malnourished animals had anemia and leukopenia as well as spleen and bone marrow hypoplasia and a reduction in the expression of CD45 and CD117 positive cells from BM. The MSCs of the malnourished mice presented an increased capability to produce SCF and reduced production of G-CSF and GM-CSF. The MSCs from the malnourished animals showed increased expression of PPAR-γ protein and PPAR-γ mRNA associated with an increased capability to differentiate into adipocytes. The alterations found in the malnourished animals allowed us to conclude that malnutrition committed MSC differentiation leading to adipocyte decision and compromised their capacity for cytokine production, contributing to an impaired hematopoietic microenvironment and inducing the bone marrow failure commonly observed in protein malnutrition states.
