Abstract
Alterations to the human organism that are brought about by aging are comprehensive and detrimental. Of these, an imbalance in bone homeostasis is a major outward manifestation of aging. In older adults, the decreased osteogenic activity of bone marrow mesenchymal stem cells and the inhibition of bone marrow mesenchymal stem cell differentiation lead to decreased bone mass, increased risk of fracture, and impaired bone injury healing. In the past decades, numerous studies have reported the epigenetic alterations that occur during aging, such as decreased core histones, altered DNA methylation patterns, and abnormalities in noncoding RNAs, which ultimately lead to genomic abnormalities and affect the expression of downstream signaling osteoporosis treatment and promoter of fracture healing in older adults. The current review summarizes the impact of epigenetic regulation mechanisms on age-related bone homeostasis imbalance.

Abstract
The biological aging of mesenchymal stem cells is proposed to contribute to the development of a range of musculoskeletal and systemic diseases associated with older adults, such as osteoporosis, sarcopenia, and frailty. Despite this, little is understood about the specific mechanisms which drive this stem cell exhaustion, with most studies evaluating indirect effects of other aging changes, such as DNA damage, senescence, and inflammaging. In this study, we assess the transcriptomic and proteomic changes in three different populations of mesenchymal progenitor cells from older (50-70 years) and younger (20-40 years) individuals to uncover potential mechanisms driving stem cell exhaustion in mesenchymal tissues. To do this, we harvested primary bone marrow mesenchymal stem and progenitor cells (MPCs), circulating osteoprogenitors (COP), and adipose-derived stem cells (ADSCs) from younger and older donors, with an equal number of samples from males and females. These samples underwent RNA sequencing and label-free proteomic analysis, comparing the younger samples to the older ones. There was a distinct transcriptomic phenotype associated with the pooled older stem cells, indicative of suppressed proliferation and differentiation; however, there was no consistent change in the proteome of the cells. Older MPCs had a distinct phenotype in both the transcriptome and proteome, again consistent with altered differentiation and proliferation, but also a pro-inflammatory immune shift in older adults. COP cells showed a strong transcriptomic shift to pro-inflammatory signaling but no consistent proteomic phenotype. Similarly, ADSCs displayed transcriptomic shift in physiologies associated with cell migration, adherence, and immune activation, but no consistent proteomic change with age. These results show that there are underlying transcriptomic changes with stem cell aging that likely contribute to a decline in tissue regeneration; however, contextual factors such as the microenvironment and general health status also have a strong role in this.

Abstract
BACKGROUND Circulating osteoprogenitors (COP) are a population of cells in the peripheral circulation that possess functional and phenotypical characteristics of multipotent stromal cells (MSCs). This population has a solid potential to become an abundant, accessible, and replenishable source of MSCs with multiple potential clinical applications. However, a comprehensive functional characterization of COP cells is still required to test and fully develop their use in clinical settings. METHODS This study characterized COP cells by comparing them to bone marrow-derived MSCs (BM-MSCs) and adipose-derived MSCs (ASCs) through detailed transcriptomic and proteomic analyses. RESULTS We demonstrate that COP cells have a distinct gene and protein expression pattern with a significantly stronger immune footprint, likely owing to their hematopoietic lineage. In addition, regarding progenitor cell differentiation and proliferation pathways, COP cells have a similar expression pattern to BM-MSCs and ASCs. CONCLUSION COP cells are a unique but functionally similar population to BM-MSCs and ASCs, sharing their proliferation and differentiation capacity, thus presenting an accessible source of MSCs with strong potential for translational regenerative medicine strategies.

Abstract
Advanced age is a shared risk factor for many chronic and debilitating skeletal diseases including osteoporosis and periodontitis. Mesenchymal stem cells develop various aging phenotypes including the onset of senescence, intrinsic loss of regenerative potential and exacerbation of inflammatory microenvironment via secretory factors. This review elaborates on the emerging concepts on the molecular and epigenetic mechanisms of MSC senescence, such as the accumulation of oxidative stress, DNA damage and mitochondrial dysfunction. Senescent MSCs aggravate local inflammation, disrupt bone remodeling and bone-fat balance, thereby contributing to the progression of age-related bone diseases. Various rejuvenation strategies to target senescent MSCs could present a promising paradigm to restore skeletal aging.

Abstract
Bone marrow skeletal stem cells (SSCs) secrete many cytokines including stromal derived factor-1 or CXCL12, which influences cell proliferation, migration, and differentiation. All CXCL12 splice variants are rapidly truncated on their N-terminus by dipeptidyl peptidase 4 (DPP4). This includes the common variant CXCL12 alpha (1-68) releasing a much less studied metabolite CXCL12(3-68). Here, we found that CXCL12(3-68) significantly inhibited SSC osteogenic differentiation and RAW-264.7 cell osteoclastogenic differentiation and induced a senescent phenotype in SSCs. Importantly, pre-incubation of SSCs with CXCL12(3-68) significantly diminished their ability to migrate toward CXCL12(1-68) in transwell migration assays. Using a high-throughput G-protein-coupled receptor (GPCR) screen (GPCRome) and bioluminescent resonance energy transfer molecular interaction assays, we revealed that CXCL12(3-68) acts via the atypical cytokine receptor 3-mediated β-arrestin recruitment and as a competitive antagonist to CXCR4-mediated signaling. Finally, a reverse phase protein array assay revealed that DPP4-cleaved CXCL12 possesses a different downstream signaling profile from that of intact CXCL12 or controls. The data presented herein provides insights into regulation of CXCL12 signaling. Importantly, it demonstrates that DPP4 proteolysis of CXCL12 generates a metabolite with significantly different and previously overlooked bioactivity that helps explain discrepancies in the literature. This also contributes to an understanding of the molecular mechanisms of osteoporosis and bone fracture repair and could potentially significantly affect the interpretation of experimental outcomes with clinical consequences in other fields where CXCL12 is vital, including cancer biology, immunology, cardiovascular biology, neurobiology, and associated pathologies.

Abstract
Autologous bone marrow-derived mesenchymal stem cells (BMSCs) are more easily available and frequently used for bone regeneration in clinics. Osteogenic differentiation of BMSCs involves complex regulatory networks affecting bone formation phenomena. Non-coding RNAs (ncRNAs) refer to RNAs that do not encode proteins, mainly including microRNAs, long non-coding RNAs, circular RNAs, piwi-interacting RNAs, transfer RNA-derived small RNAs, etc. Recent in vitro and in vivo studies had revealed the regulatory role of ncRNAs in osteogenic differentiation of BMSCs. NcRNAs had both stimulatory and inhibitory effects on osteogenic differentiation of BMSCs. During the physiological condition, osteo-stimulatory ncRNAs are upregulated and osteo-inhibitory ncRNAs are downregulated. The opposite effects might occur during bone degenerative disease conditions. Intracellular ncRNAs and ncRNAs from neighboring cells delivered via exosomes participate in the regulatory process of osteogenic differentiation of BMSCs. In this review, we summarize the recent advances in the regulatory role of ncRNAs on osteogenic differentiation of BMSCs during physiological and pathological conditions. We also discuss the prospects of the application of modulation of ncRNAs function in BMSCs to promote bone tissue regeneration in clinics.
