Abstract
Background Osteoporosis is a significant barrier to the use of dental implants in the elderly for the treatment of tooth defects. Adipose derived stem cells (ADSCs) have demonstrated extensive potential for tissue repair and regeneration. The present study aimed to investigate the effectiveness of ADSCs engineered to express high levels of osteoprotegerin (OPG) for the treatment of bone loss in implant dentistry caused by estrogen deficiency. Methods A rat model of osteoporosis was established through double oophorectomy, and the rats were treated by gene modified cells Adv-OPG-ADSCs. The effects of the treatment on maxilla tissue changes were evaluated using HE staining and micro-CT. Additionally, ALP and TRAP staining were used to assess osteoblast and osteoclast alterations. Finally, the changes in related osteoblast and osteoclast indicators were measured by RT-qPCR, Western blot, and ELISA. Results The successfully generated high-OPG-expressing ADSCs led to increase of cell viability, proliferation, and osteoblast differentiation. Treatment with Adv-OPG-ADSCs significantly ameliorated maxillary morphology, trabecular volume reduction, and bone mineral density decline in the model of estrogen-deficient maxillary implant dentistry. Furthermore, the treatment was beneficial to promoting the generation of osteoblasts and inhibiting the generation of osteoclast. Adv-OPG-ADSCs increased OPG, ALP, OCN, and Runx-2 expressions in the maxilla while suppressing RANKL expression, and also increased the concentration of COL I and PINP, as well as decreased the concentration of CTX-1. Conclusion Adv-OPG-ADSCs promote the formation of osteoblasts and inhibit the generation of osteoclasts, thereby inhibiting bone absorption, facilitating bone formation, and promoting the repair of maxillary bone after dental implantation in the presence of osteoporosis-related complications, especially in the setting of estrogen deficiency, providing scientific basis for the application of Adv-OPG-ADSCs in the treatment of implant related osteoporosis.

Arch Gerontol Geriatr 2021; 97:104505. [PMID: 34450404 DOI: 10.1016/j.archger.2021.104505] [Citation(s) in RCA: 4] [Impact Index Per Article: 1.3] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Key Words] [MESH Headings] [Track Full Text] [Journal Information] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 07/21/2021] [Revised: 08/09/2021] [Accepted: 08/09/2021] [Indexed: 11/18/2022]
Abstract
BACKGROUND We aimed to determine the role of the LINC00370/miR-222-3p/RGS4 axis in modulating the process of adipose-derived stem cell (ADSC) osteogenic differentiation. METHODS We first evaluated the differential expression of LINC00370, miR-222-3p and RGS4 between normal and osteogenically induced ADSCs. Moreover, we transfected ADSCs with LINC00370 siRNA and an miR-222-3p inhibitor to determine the role of LINC00370 in modulating the process of ADSC osteogenic differentiation. Finally, we analyzed the dual-luciferase reporter gene to identify the relationship between LINC00370 and miR-222-3p. We first created osteoporotic rat models by ovariectomy (OVX) and treated with pcDNA-LINC00370. HE and immunohistochemical staining of OCN were performed to assess the changes in bone microarchitecture. RESULTS LINC00370 and RGS4 expression was remarkably upregulated in the osteogenic ADSC group compared with the normal medium group. On the other hand, miR-222-3p expression was remarkably decreased in the osteogenic group compared with the normal medium group. Knockdown of LINC00370 reduced the osteogenic differentiation of ADSCs. Moreover, the inhibitor of miR-222-3p partially reversed the reduction of osteogenic differentiation by LINC00370 knockdown. Knockdown of LINC00370 reduced the expression of p-Akt and p-PI3K. The inhibitor of miR-222-3p partially reversed the reduction of the expression of p-Akt and p-PI3K by LINC00370 knockdown. A dual luciferase reporter assay indicated that LINC00370 can directly bind miR-222-3p. LINC00370 suppressed OP progression in OVX and partially upregulated OCN protein expression. CONCLUSION Collectively, the above results confirm that LINC00370 promotes the process of ADSC osteogenic differentiation via the miR-222-3p/RGS4 axis. Moreover, LINC00370 could protect against OVX-induced OP.

Cell Tissue Res 2021; 383:795-807.

Abstract
Adipose-derived mesenchymal stem cells (ADSCs) are considered to be seed cells in bone tissue engineering and emerging evidence indicates that circular RNAs (circRNAs) function in the osteogenic differentiation of ADSCs. The mechanisms of osteoblastic differentiation of ADSCs from the perspective of circRNA modulation are examined in this study. First, circRNA-23525 was upregulated during osteoblastic differentiation of ADSCs. Second, overexpression of circRNA-23525 increased Runx2, ALP and OCN at both mRNA and protein levels. Alkaline phosphatase (ALP) and Alizarin Red staining indicated a similar tendency. Silencing circRNA-23525 produced the opposite effect. Bioinformatics analysis with luciferase assays confirmed that circRNA-23525 functioned as a sponge for miR-30a-3p. In the osteoblastic differentiation of ADSCs, the dynamic expression of miR-30a-3p and circRNA-23525 resulted in an opposite trend at 3, 7 and 14 days. Overexpression of circRNA-23525 downregulated miR-30a-3p and knockdown of circRNA-23525 promoted the expression of miR-30a-3p. Bioinformatics methods and luciferase assays suggested that miR-30a-3p modulated Runx2 expression by targeting 3'UTR. Knockdown of miR-30a-3p facilitated osteogenesis in ADSCs and enhancing miR-30a-3p interfered with the osteogenic process. Finally, circRNA-23525 overexpression significantly increased Runx2 expression, while co-transfection of miR-30a-3p mimics reversed it. Runx2 expression was decreased in circRNA-23525-knockdown ADSCs but expression was rescued by including the miR-30a-3p inhibitor in the osteoblastic process. ALP activity and mineralized bone matrix confirmed the function of circRNA-23525/miR-30a-3p in osteogenesis. Taken together, the current study demonstrated that circRNA-23525 regulates Runx2 expression via targeting miR-30a-3p and is thus a positive regulator in the osteoblastic differentiation of ADSCs.

Abstract
A simple overview of daily orthodontic practice involves use of brackets, wires and elastomeric modules. However, investigating the underlying effect of orthodontic forces shows various molecular and cellular changes. Also, orthodontics is in close relation with dentofacial orthopedics which involves bone regeneration. In this review current and future applications of stem cells (SCs) in orthodontics and dentofacial orthopedics have been discussed. For craniofacial anomalies, SCs have been applied to regenerate hard tissue (such as treatment of alveolar cleft) and soft tissue (such as treatment of hemifacial macrosomia). Several attempts have been done to reconstruct impaired temporomandibular joint. Also, SCs with or without bone scaffolds and growth factors have been used to regenerate bone following distraction osteogenesis of mandibular bone or maxillary expansion. Current evidence shows that SCs also have potential to be used to regenerate infrabony alveolar defects and move the teeth into regenerated areas. Future application of SCs in orthodontics could involve accelerating tooth movement, regenerating resorbed roots and expanding tooth movement limitations. However, evidence supporting these roles is weak and further studies are required to evaluate the possibility of these ideas.

Abstract
Craniofacial bone defects are challenging problems for maxillofacial surgeons over the years. With the development of cell and molecular biology, gene therapy is a breaking new technology with the aim of regenerating tissues by acting as a delivery system for therapeutic genes in the craniofacial region rather than treating genetic disorders. A systematic review was conducted summarizing the articles reporting gene therapy in maxillofacial surgery to answer the question: Was gene therapy successfully applied to regenerate bone in the maxillofacial region? Electronic searching of online databases was performed in addition to hand searching of the references of included articles. No language or time restrictions were enforced. Meta-analysis was done to assess significant bone formation after delivery of gene material in the surgically induced maxillofacial defects. The search identified 2081 articles, of which 57 were included with 1726 animals. Bone morphogenetic proteins were commonly used proteins for gene therapy. Viral vectors were the universally used vectors. Sprague-Dawley rats were the frequently used animal model in experimental studies. The quality of the articles ranged from excellent to average. Meta-analysis results performed on 21 articles showed that defects favored bone formation by gene therapy. Funnel plot showed symmetry with the absence of publication bias. Gene therapy is on the top list of innovative strategies that developed in the last 10 years with the hope of developing a simple chair-side protocol in the near future, combining improvement of gene delivery as well as knowledge of the molecular basis of oral and maxillofacial structures.

Abstract
OBJECTIVE This study investigated the effects and possible molecular mechanism of casein kinase-2 interacting protein-1 (CKIP-1) silencing on bone regeneration during rat mandibular distraction osteogenesis (DO). STUDY DESIGN CKIP-1 silencing by chitosan/si-CKIP-1 was employed and analyzed both in rat mandibular DO models in vivo and in cultured rat mandible bone marrow stromal cells (BMSCs) in vitro. RESULTS Gross observation, micro-computed tomography analysis, and hematoxylin and eosin (H&E) staining revealed that new bone formation in the distraction gap of the chitosan/si-CKIP-treated group was better compared with the chitosan/si-NC and phosphate buffered saline-treated groups in both quantity and quality. Proliferation assay, flow cytometry, and alizarin red staining indicated that CKIP-1 silencing significantly inhibited apoptosis, but promoted osteogenic differentiation of cultured BMSCs. Additionally, CKIP-1 silencing significantly promoted the expression of Wnt3 a, β-catenin, and osteocalcin both in new bone formation of DO models in vivo and in the osteogenic differentiation process of BMSCs in vitro. CONCLUSIONS Promotion of bone formation after CKIP-1 silencing in rat mandibular distraction osteogenesis appears to be mediated through the Wnt3 a/β-catenin signaling pathway.

Abstract
OBJECTIVES To review the advances and limitations of recent investigations on mandibular distraction osteogenesis (MDO) assisted by mesenchymal stem cell (MSC) transplantation. MATERIALS AND METHODS Following the preferred reporting items for systematic reviews and meta-analysis (PRISMA) guidelines, the PubMed, Scopus, and Cochrane electronic databases were systematically searched and screened from their inception through August 2014. Searching terms included the following: 'distraction osteogenesis', 'mandible OR mandibular OR jaw', and 'cells', without any other limitations. RESULTS Nineteen studies meeting the eligibility criteria were selected from 227 published articles and used for qualitative synthesis. Fifteen of the studies used small animal models (rats or rabbits), while the other four used large animal models (dogs, pigs or sheep). Among these studies, large variations exist in MDO protocol, cell transplantation time, route and quantity, as well as methodology of outcome assessment. Additionally, all studies had certain biases. Nevertheless, the majority of studies found that MSC transplantation enhanced MDO bone regeneration. CONCLUSION Evidence from animal studies indicates that MDO may be enhanced by mesenchymal stem cell transplantation, but many questions related to animal models, MDO protocols, and cell transplantation remain to be investigated.

Abstract
Adipose-derived stem cells (ADSCs) are a convenient source of cells for regenerating tissue. Widespread application of ADSCs requires that they propagate efficiently and differentiate in vitro. We investigated the differentiation potential of ADSCs during long-term expansion in vitro and when the cells were seeded at low density. ADSCs were isolated from the inguinal fat pads of 3-week-old male rats, then cultured serially for 12 passages; some ADSCs at passage 3 were seeded at low density. The differentiation potential of ADSCs from passage 3 to passage 12 was assessed by their capacity for adipogenesis and osteogenesis while cultured in specific induction media. Spontaneous osteogenesis of ADSCs at passage 12 and of ADSCs that were seeded at low density was detected by western blotting, alizarin red S staining and measurement of alkaline phosphatase (ALP) activity. We found that with increasing passage number, the adipogenic potential of ADSCs decreased and osteogenic differentiation increased. Alizarin red S staining, bone morphogenetic protein-2 (BMP-2) and runt-related transcription factor 2 (Runx2) expressions, and ALP activity demonstrated that both ADSCs at passage 12 and those that were seeded at low density differentiated into osteoblasts without additional induction factors.

Abstract
Cell microarrays are a novel platform for the high throughput discovery of new biomaterials. By re-creating a multitude of cell microenvironments on a single slide, this approach can identify the optimal surface composition to drive a desired cell response. To systematically study the effects of molecular microenvironments on stem cell fate, we designed a cell microarray based on parallel exposure of mesenchymal stem cells (MSCs) to surface-immobilised collagen I (Coll I) and bone morphogenetic protein 2 (BMP 2). This was achieved by means of a reactive coating on a slide surface, enabling the covalent anchoring of Coll I and BMP 2 as microscale spots printed by a robotic contact printer. The surface between the printed protein spots was passivated using poly (ethylene glycol) bisamine 10,000Da (A-PEG). MSCs were then captured and cultured on array spots composed of binary mixtures of Coll I and BMP 2, followed by automated image acquisition and quantitative, multi-parameter analysis of cellular responses. Surface compositions that gave the highest osteogenic differentiation were determined using Runx2 expression and calcium deposition. Quantitative single cell analysis revealed subtle concentration-dependent effects of surface-immobilised proteins on the extent of osteogenic differentiation obscured using conventional analysis. In particular, the synergistic interaction of Coll I and BMP 2 in supporting osteogenic differentiation was confirmed. Our studies demonstrate the value of cell microarray platforms to decipher the combinatorial interactions at play in stem cell niche microenvironments.

Abstract
BACKGROUND Throughout history, surgeons have been prolific innovators, which is hardly surprising as most surgeons innovate daily, tailoring their intervention to the intrinsic uniqueness of each operation, each patient and each disease. Innovation can be defined as the application of better solutions that meet new requirements, unarticulated needs or existing market needs. In the past two decades, surgical innovation has significantly improved patient outcomes, complication rates and length of hospital stay. There is one key area that has great potential to change the face of surgical practice and which is still in its infancy: the realm of regenerative medicine and tissue engineering. METHODS A literature review was performed using PubMed; peer-reviewed publications were screened for relevance in order to identify key surgical innovations influencing regenerative medicine, with a focus on osseous, cutaneous and soft tissue reconstruction. RESULTS This review describes recent advances in regenerative medicine, documenting key innovations in osseous, cutaneous and soft tissue regeneration that have brought regenerative medicine to the forefront of the surgical imagination. CONCLUSION Surgical innovation in the emerging field of regenerative medicine has the ability to make a major impact on surgery on a daily basis.
