- Abstract: BACKGROUND:The mechanism of programmed death receptor-1(PD-1)effect on osteogenic differentiation of bone marrow mesenchymal stem cells in high glucose environment remains unclear. OBJECTIVE:To explore the effect of PD-1 on osteogenic differentiation of rat bone marrow mesenchymal stem cells in high glucose environment and its regulatory mechanism. METHODS:Rat bone marrow mesenchymal stem cells were randomly divided into normal glucose group(5.6 mmol/L),high glucose group(30 mmol/L),PD-1 overexpression group,PD-1 overexpression no-load group,PD-1 knockdown group,PD-1 knockdown no-load group,and PI3K/AKT pathway inhibitor group(PD-1 knockdown+5 μmol/L LY294002).Rat bone marrow mesenchymal stem cells were cultured in high glucose to simulate the diabetic environment in vitro.The mRNA expression of PD-1 and ligand PD-L1 and the mRNA expression of osteogenic markers Runx2 and OSX in rat bone marrow mesenchymal stem cells were detected by qRT-PCR.The osteogenic differentiation ability was observed by alkaline phosphatase staining and alizarin red staining.Cell proliferation was detected by CCK-8 assay.The protein expressions of PD-1,PD-L1,p-PI3K,and p-AKT were detected by western blot assay. RESULTS AND CONCLUSION:(1)The levels of PD-1 and PD-L1 were significantly increased in the high glucose environment in vitro,and the osteogenic differentiation ability of bone marrow mesenchymal stem cells was inhibited in the high glucose environment.(2)Knockdown of PD-1 expression could promote osteogenic differentiation of bone marrow mesenchymal stem cells,increase cell proliferation activity,and activate the PI3K/AKT pathway.(3)After addition of PI3K/AKT pathway inhibitor LY294002,the ability of bone marrow mesenchymal stem cells to differentiate into osteoblasts decreased.The results show that PD-1 is dependent on the PI3K/AKT signaling pathway to inhibit osteogenic differentiation of rat bone marrow mesenchymal stem cells under high glucose environment.
