Abstract:
BACKGROUND:Disequilibrium of proportion of adipogenesis and osteogenesis from bone marrow mesenchymal stem cells (BMSCs)is associated with many bone diseases.However,it has been demonstrated that Wnt signaling pathway could play an important role in regulation of BMSC differentiation.OBJECTIVE:To investigate the different gene expression profiles and to find the target gene on Wnt signaling pathway of the BMSCs,after being induced to osteoblasts and adipocytes respectively using Wnt signaling pathway PCR array.METHODS:The third-passage BMSCs,after being induced to osteoblasts and adipocytes respectively for 7 days.The total mRNA of MSCs was extracted by Trizol.BMSC morphology was observed following osteogenic and adipogenic induction under an inverted microscope.Gene array was detected by rat Wnt signaling pathway PCR array.Non-induction group served as controls.The ratio of increase/reduction gene of osteoblasts and adipocytes was calculated.RESULTS AND CONCLUSION:Under an inverted microscope,BMSCs with high homogenicity were obtained following passage 3.BMSCs differentiated into osteoblasts following osteogenic induction,and into adipocytes following adipogenic induction.Compared with non-induction group,fifteen genes(Dkk1,kremen,FZD1,FZD7,et al.)were expressed up-regulated(ratio ＞ 2)and 16(sFrp 5,β-catenin,Dvl3,Tcf7,et al.)genes down-regulated(ratio ＜ 0.5)when the third-passage BMSCs were induced to adipocytes.Six genes(Dkk1,kremen,β-catenin,Wnt11,et al.)were expressed up-regulated and 15 genes(sFrp5,sFRP4,Fzd1,et al.)down-regulated when BMSCs being induced to osteoblasts.Above-mentioned results suggested that Wnt signaling pathway plays an important role in the osteoblast and adipocyte differentiation from BMSCs.
