Abstract:
BACKGROUND:Simvastatin enhanced the expression of bone morphogenetic protein-2(BMP-2),which plays an anabolic role in bone metabolism and osteoblastic lineage differentiation.However,little is known about the molecular mechanism of simvastatin on regulation of bone marrow stromal cells differentiation.OBJECTIVE:To investigated the effect of simvastatin on osteoblastic differentiation of bone marrow stromal cells based on genetics level.METHODS:Bone marrow stromal cells derived from femur and tibia were cultured in different mediums with simvastatin or Vehicle for 7 days Following extraction and purification,mRNA was reverse-transcripted into cDNA.Fluorescence labelina was employed and the samples were then hybridized with oligonucleotide chip to screen the different genes,which were utillzed to analyze osteogenesis-related factors.Alkaline phosphatase and Von Kossa staining were performed at days 14 and 21,respectively.RESULTS AND CONCLUSIONS:At day 14,alkaline phosphatase-positive cells were more in the experimental group than control group.Von Kossa staining demonstrated that simvastatin could promote BMSCs osteoblastic differentiation and mineralization.Comparative analysis showed that 103 genes out of 22 575 rat genes had differential expression (≥2 fold or≤ 0.5 fold),and some genes were related to cell proliferation and ostoeblastic differentiation,including C/EBP δ,Cited,Ascl2,Ptpnl6,Wisp2,Tieg,etc.Simvastatin could induce osteoblastic differentiation of bone marrow stromal cells,involving in many osteogenetic-related genes.
