[PMID: 38134836 DOI: 10.1016/j.prp.2023.155036] [Citation(s) in RCA: 0] [Impact Index Per Article: 0] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Key Words] [MESH Headings] [Track Full Text] [Journal Information] [Submit a Manuscript] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 10/29/2023] [Revised: 12/10/2023] [Accepted: 12/10/2023] [Indexed: 12/24/2023]
Abstract
Osteoporosis, a prevalent bone disorder influenced by genetic and environmental elements, significantly increases the likelihood of fractures and bone weakness, greatly affecting the lives of those afflicted. Yet, the exact epigenetic processes behind the onset of osteoporosis are still unclear. Growing research indicates that epigenetic changes could act as vital mediators that connect genetic tendencies and environmental influences, thereby increasing the risk of osteoporosis and bone fractures. Within these epigenetic factors, certain types of RNA, such as microRNAs (miRNAs), long non-coding RNAs (lncRNAs), and circular RNAs (circRNAs), have been recognized as key regulatory elements. These RNA types wield significant influence on gene expression through epigenetic regulation, directing various biological functions essential to bone metabolism. This extensive review compiles current research uncovering the complex ways in which miRNAs, lncRNAs, and circRNAs are involved in the development of osteoporosis, especially in osteoblasts and osteoclasts. Gaining a more profound understanding of the roles these three RNA classes play in osteoporosis could reveal new diagnostic methods and treatment approaches for this incapacitating condition. In conclusion, this review delves into the complex domain of epigenetic regulation via non-coding RNA in osteoporosis. It sheds light on the complex interactions and mechanisms involving miRNAs, lncRNAs, and circRNAs within osteoblasts and osteoclasts, offering an in-depth understanding of the less explored aspects of osteoporosis pathogenesis. These insights not only reveal the complexity of the disease but also offer significant potential for developing new diagnostic methods and targeted treatments. Therefore, this review marks a crucial step in deciphering the elusive complexities of osteoporosis, leading towards improved patient care and enhanced quality of life.

The ATF4-regulated LncRNA MALAT1 promotes odontoblastic differentiation of human dental pulp stem cells via histone demethylase JMJD3: An in vitro study. Int Endod J 2024; 57:50-63. [PMID: 37837219 DOI: 10.1111/iej.13984] [Citation(s) in RCA: 0] [Impact Index Per Article: 0] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Key Words] [MESH Headings] [Grants] [Track Full Text] [Journal Information] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 05/02/2022] [Revised: 09/25/2023] [Accepted: 09/26/2023] [Indexed: 10/15/2023]
Abstract
AIM This study aimed to investigate the upstream regulators and specific mechanisms of metastasis-associated lung adenocarcinoma transcript 1 (MALAT1) in the odontoblastic differentiation of human dental pulp stem cells (hDPSCs). METHODOLOGY Human dental pulp stem cells were isolated and cultured, followed by conducting loss- or gain-of-function experiments on ATF4 and loss experiments on MALAT1 to elucidate their respective biological functions in odontoblastic differentiation. Chromatin immunoprecipitation assays and RNA immunoprecipitation were performed to uncover the interaction between ATF4-MALAT1 and MALAT1-JMJD3, respectively. The odontoblastic differentiation was estimated by the mRNA and protein of DSPP and DMP1, as well as alkaline phosphatase staining. RESULTS Expression of MALAT1 was upregulated in the hDPSCs cultured in an odontoblastic medium, and MALAT1 downregulation suppressed the odontoblastic differentiation of the hDPSCs. Subsequent experiments confirmed that ATF4 promoted odontoblastic differentiation and induced MALAT1 expression by binding to the MALAT1 promoter region. Further experiments revealed that nuclear MALAT1 interacted with JMJD3. MALAT1 knockdown decreased the JMJD3 protein level and demethylase activity, and it enhanced H3K27me3 occupancy of the promoter region of DSPP and DMP1, resulting in the inhibition of DSPP and DMP1 transcription. Importantly, JMJD3 overexpression significantly attenuated the inhibition of odontoblastic differentiation induced by MALAT1 knockdown. CONCLUSIONS ATF4-regulated MALAT1 plays a positive regulatory role in odontoblastic differentiation of hDPSCs through JMJD3-mediated H3K27me3 modifications of the DSPP and DMP1 promoters.

Abstract
To investigate the influences of Houttuynia cordata Thunb (HCT) in steroid-induced avascular necrosis of the femoral head (SANFH), we conducted a comprehensive study evaluating the effects of HCT on various aspects. Cell Counting Kit-8 assay was used to examine bone marrow stem cells (BMSCs) cell viability. Flow cytometry and lactate dehydrogenase detection assay were conducted to determine cell apoptosis. The levels of apoptosis-related proteins, osteogenic-related markers, inflammatory factors, and nuclear factor kappa B (NF-κB) pathway-associated proteins were determined via western blotting. Hematoxylin and eosin and terminal deoxynucleotidyl transferase dUTP nick-end labeling assays were utilized to verify the effects of HCT in SANFH rats. Our findings revealed that HCT could enhanced cell viability and arrested cell apoptosis in dexamethasone (Dex)-treated BMSCs. Dex increased the levels of cleaved caspase-3, Bcl2-associated X, interleukin (IL)-1β, IL-18, IL-6, p65, and inhibitor of NF-κB kinase β (IKKβ), while this promoting trend was weakened by HCT. Moreover, pyrrolidine dithiocarbamate (PDTC, an inhibitor of NF-κB signaling pathway) further increased the inhibitory role of apoptosis and the levels of IL-1β, IL-18, and IL-6 and the promotional effect of the levels of RUNX2 and ALP in Dex-treated BMSCs. The in-vivo assays showed that HCT decreased the percentage of empty lacunae, apoptosis, and the levels of IL-1β, IL-18, IL-6, p65, and IKKβ in SANFH rats. In conclusion, our study demonstrated that HCT relieved SANFH, which might be possibly achieved by NF-κB pathway.

Abstract
Postmenopausal osteoporosis (PMOP) brings a lot of inconvenience to patients and serious economic burden to society. The osteogenic differentiation of bone marrow mesenchymal stem cells (BMSCs) plays vital role in the process of PMOP treatment. However, the functional mechanism remains unclear. In this study, GATA4, MALAT1 and KHSRP were downregulated in bone tissues of PMOP patients, while NEDD4 was overexpressed. Through functional experiments, GATA4 overexpression strikingly accelerated osteogenic differentiation of BMSCs and promoted bone formation in vitro and in vivo, while these effects were dramatically reversed after MALAT1 silence. Intermolecular interaction experiments confirmed that GATA4 activated the transcription of MALAT1, which could form a 'RNA-protein' complex with KHSRP to decay NEDD4 mRNA. NEDD4 promoted the degradation of Runx1 by ubiquitination. Moreover, NEDD4 silencing blocked the inhibitory effects of MALAT1 knockdown on BMSCs osteogenic differentiation. In sum up, GATA4-activated MALAT1 promoted BMSCs osteogenic differentiation via regulating KHSPR/NEDD4 axis-regulated RUNX1 degradation, ultimately improving PMOP.

Abstract
Sideroblastic anaemia with B-cell immunodeficiency, periodic fever and developmental delay is a recently described, rare syndrome characterised by numerous manifestations underpinned by mutations in transfer RNA nucleotidyltransferase. The pathogenesis arises from mitochondrial dysfunction, with impaired intracellular stress response, deficient metabolism and cellular and systemic inflammation. This yields multiorgan dysfunction and early death in many patients with survivors suffering significant disability and morbidity. New cases, often youths, are still being described, expanding the horizon of recognisable phenotypes. We present a mature patient with spontaneous bilateral hip osteonecrosis that likely arises from the impaired RNA quality control and inflammation caused by this syndrome.

Abstract
The clinical need for bone regenerative solutions is expanding with increasing life expectancy and escalating incidence of accidents. Several strategies are being investigated to enhance the osteogenic differentiation of stem cells. We previously reported two different approaches for this purpose, in monolayer and three-dimensional cell culture. The first approach was based on pretreating cells with 5-Aza-dC, a DNA methylation inhibitor, before the applying the differentiation media. The second approach was based on culturing cells on a glass surface during differentiation. In this study, we investigated the potential effect of combining both methods. Our results suggested that both approaches were associated with decreasing global DNA methylation levels. Cells cultured as a monolayer on glass surface showed enhancement in alkaline phosphatase activity at day 10, while 5-Aza-dC pretreatment enhanced the activity at day 5, irrespective of the culture surface. In three-dimensional pellet culture, 5-Aza-dC pretreatment enhanced osteogenesis through Runx-2 and TGF-β1 upregulation while the glass surface induced Osterix. Furthermore, pellets cultured on glass showed upregulation of a group of miRNAs, including pro-osteogenesis miR- 20a and miR -148b and anti-osteogenesis miR -125b, miR -31, miR -138, and miR -133a. Interestingly, 5-Aza-dC was not associated with a change of miRNAs in cells cultured on tissue culture plastic but reverted the upregulated miRNAs on the glass to the basal level. This study confirms the two approaches for enhancing osteogenic differentiation and contradicts their combination.

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.

Abstract
Background Bone mesenchymal stem cells (BMSCs) have good osteogenic differentiation potential and have become ideal seed cells in bone tissue engineering. However, the osteogenic differentiation ability of BMSCs gradually weakens with age, and the regulatory mechanism is unclear. Method We conducted a bioinformatics analysis, dual-luciferase reporter (DLR) experiment, and RNA binding protein immunoprecipitation (RIP) to explore the hub genes that may affect BMSC functions. Results The expression level of long non-coding RNA (lncRNA) metastasis-associated lung adenocarcinoma transcript 1 (Malat1) was significantly higher in the BMSCs from elderly than younger mice, while miR-129-5p showed the opposite trend. The results of alkaline phosphatase staining, quantitative reverse transcription PCR and western blot experiments indicated that inhibiting the expression of Malat1 inhibits the osteogenic differentiation of BMSCs. This effect can be reversed by reducing the expression of miR-129-5p. Additionally, DLR and RIP experiments confirmed that Malat1 acts as a sponge for miR-129-5p. Conclusion Overall, our study findings indicated that lncRNA Malat1 may play a critical role in maintaining the osteoblast differentiation potential of BMSCs by sponging miR-129-5p.

Abstract
Tissue engineered bone brings hope to the treatment of bone defects, and the osteogenic differentiation of stem cells is the key link. Inducing osteogenic differentiation of stem cells may be a potential approach to promote bone regeneration. In recent years, lncRNA has been studied in the field increasingly, which is believed can regulate cell cycle, proliferation, metastasis, differentiation and immunity, participating in a variety of physiology and pathology processes. At present, it has been confirmed that certain lncRNAs regulate the osteogenesis of stem cells and take part in mediating signaling pathways including Wnt/β-catenin, MAPK, TGF-β/BMP, and Notch pathways. Here, we provided an overview of lncRNA, reviewed its researches in the osteogenic differentiation of stem cells, emphasized the importance of lncRNA in bone regeneration, and focused on the roles of lncRNA in signaling pathways, in order to make adequate preparations for applying lncRNA to bone tissue Engineering, letting it regulate the osteogenic differentiation of stem cells for bone regeneration.

Abstract
Long non-coding RNAs (lncRNAs) have been comprehensively implicated in various cellular functions by mediating transcriptional or post-transcriptional activities. MALAT1 is involved in the differentiation, proliferation, and apoptosis of multiple cell lines, including BMSCs, osteoblasts, osteoclasts, and chondrocytes. Interestingly, MALAT1 may interact with RNAs or proteins, regulating cellular processes. Recently, MALAT1 has been reported to be associated with the development of bone and cartilage diseases by orchestrating the signaling network. The involvement of MALAT1 in the pathological development of bone and cartilage diseases makes it available to be a potential biomarker for clinical diagnosis or prognosis. Although the potential mechanisms of MALAT1 in mediating the cellular processes of bone and cartilage diseases are still needed for further elucidation, MALAT1 shows great promise for drug development.

Abstract
Although bone is a self-healing organ and is able to repair and restore most fractures, large bone fractures, about 10%, are not repairable. Bone grafting, as a gold standard, and bone tissue engineering using biomaterials, growth factors, and stem cells have been developed to restore large bone defects. Since bone regeneration is a complex and multiple-step process and the majority of the human genome, about 98%, is composed of the non-protein-coding regions, non-coding RNAs (ncRNAs) play essential roles in bone regeneration. Recent studies demonstrated that long ncRNAs (lncRNAs) and circular RNAs (circRNAs), as members of ncRNAs, are widely involved in bone regeneration by interaction with microRNAs (miRNAs) and constructing a lncRNA or circRNA/miRNA/mRNA regulatory network. The constructed network regulates the differentiation of stem cells into osteoblasts and their commitment to osteogenesis. This review will present the structure and biogenesis of lncRNAs and circRNAs, the mechanism of bone repair, and the bone tissue engineering in bone defects. Finally, we will discuss the role of lncRNAs and circRNAs in osteogenesis and bone fracture healing through constructing various lncRNA or circRNA/miRNA/mRNA networks and the involved pathways.

Abstract
MicroRNAs (miRNAs) are endogenously expressed, non-coding RNA molecules that mediate the post-transcriptional repression and degradation of mRNAs by targeting their 3′ untranslated region (3′-UTR). Thousands of miRNAs have been identified since their first discovery in 1993, and miR-214 was first reported to promote apoptosis in HeLa cells. Presently, miR-214 is implicated in an extensive range of conditions such as cardiovascular diseases, cancers, bone formation and cell differentiation. MiR-214 has shown pleiotropic roles in contributing to the progression of diseases such as gastric and lung cancers but may also confer cardioprotection against excessive fibrosis and oxidative damage. These contrasting functions are achieved through the diverse cast of miR-214 targets. Through silencing or overexpressing miR-214, the detrimental effects can be attenuated, and the beneficial effects promoted in order to improve health outcomes. Therefore, discovering novel miR-214 targets and understanding how miR-214 is dysregulated in human diseases may eventually lead to miRNA-based therapies. MiR-214 has also shown promise as a diagnostic biomarker in identifying breast cancer and coronary artery disease. This review provides an up-to-date discussion of miR-214 literature by describing relevant roles in health and disease, areas of disagreement, and the future direction of the field.

Abstract
BACKGROUND In recent years, magnesium (Mg) has been extensively studied for manufacturing biodegradable orthopedic devices. Besides other advantages, researches have shown that magnesium-based implants can stimulate osteogenesis thus accelerating orthopedic trauma recovery, but its molecular mechanism is not fully understood. Meanwhile, long non-coding RNA (lncRNA) has been found to play vital role in regulating osteogenic differentiation. OBJECTIVE To explore the role of lncRNA in Mg2+ (magnesium ions)-induced osteogenesis. METHODS The effect of Mg2+ on mBMSCs proliferation was detected by the CCK-8 assay. The optimum concentration of Mg2+ (7.5 mM) in promoting mBMSCs osteogenesis was determined by ALP staining and Alizarin red staining, western blot and RT-qPCR were performed to detect osteogenic markers expressions. The lncRNAs and mRNAs expression profiles of mBMSCs were assessed by RNA-Seq and processed by bioinformatics analysis. The selected lncRNAs expression level was validated by RT-qPCR. RESULTS The effect of Mg2+ in promoting osteogenesis was confirmed and the optimum concentration was determined as 7.5 mM. The lncRNAs and mRNAs differentially expressed between 7.5 mM Mg2+-treated group and control group was detected and functional analysis revealed that their function were associated with osteogenesis. The ceRNA networks were constructed for H19 and Dubr that aberrantly expressed in two groups. The ceRNA networks of selected lncRNAs (H19 and Dubr) were constructed. CONCLUSIONS This study identified H19 and Dubr as osteogenic associated lncRNAs involved in Mg2+-induced osteogenesis, and they might play their roles through lncRNA-miRNA-mRNA axis.

Abstract
Background Esophageal cancer (EC) is a common malignant tumor, which brings heavy economic burden to patients and society. Therefore, it is important to understand the molecular mechanism of recurrence, metastasis, and drug resistance of esophageal cancer. Methods Human esophageal cancer cell line TE13 (poorly differentiated squamous cell carcinoma) and normal human esophageal epithelial cell line het-1a were selected for aseptic culture. At the same time, 6 bottles of TE13 cell line were inoculated in logarithmic phase. Cell apoptosis was analyzed by flow cytometry (FCM). Cell clone formation assay was used to analyze the proliferation. Fibronectin-coated dishes were used to detect the characteristics of cell adhesion to extracellular matrix. The Transwell method was used to detect the cell invasion ability. Western blot was used to analyze the expression of Yap1, PTPN14, FAT1, and Myc. Results Results showed that FAT1 and PTPN14 were downregulated, while Yap1 was upregulated in esophageal cancer tissues. FAT1 inhibited the proliferation, adhesion, and invasion of human esophageal cancer cell lines, which might be associated with the upregulation of PTPN14 and the inhibition of Yap1 and Myc. Conclusion The results suggested that PTPN14 and FAT1 could regulate malignant progression and chemotherapy resistance of esophageal cancer based on the Hippo signaling pathway.

Abstract
In bone tissue engineering, tailored biomaterials mimicking mesenchymal stem cells (MSCs) niche could regulate cell behavior and fate decision. The mechanisms, however, remain obscure. Recently, increasing evidence has shown that non-coding RNAs (ncRNAs) are critical modulators of the mechano-induced MSCs’ responses. Mechanosensitive ncRNAs could convert various physical forces into biochemical signals, and orchestrate signaling networks that regulate the osteogenic differentiation of MSCs in their unique microenvironment. In this review, we focus on the mechanosensitive ncRNAs which could interpret mechanical stimuli during the osteogenesis of MSCs, summarize the signaling pathway networks by which these ncRNAs drive MSCs fate, and point out the limitations and the areas waiting for further exploration.

Abstract
BACKGROUND Cerebral ischemia/reperfusion injury (CIRI) is a complication of surgical procedure associated with high mortality. The protective effect of dexmedetomidine (DEX) on CIRI has been explored in previous works, yet the underlying molecular mechanism remains unclear. Our study explored the protective effect of DEX and its regulatory mechanism on CIRI. METHODS A CIRI rat model was established using middle cerebral artery occlusion (MCAO). Neurological deficit scores for rats received MCAO modeling or DEX treatment were measured. Cerebral infarction area of rats was detected by TTC staining, while damage of neurons in hippocampal regions of rats was determined by hematoxylin-eosin (HE) staining. Apoptosis rate of neurons in hippocampal regions was examined by TUNEL staining. The dual-luciferase assay was performed to detect the binding of microRNA-214 (miR-214) to Rho-associated kinase 1 (ROCK1). RESULTS DEX treatment significantly reduced infarction area of MCAO rats and elevated miR-214 expression. Injection of miR-214 inhibitor attenuated the effect of DEX in MCAO rats by increasing the area of cerebral infarction in rats and apoptosis rate of hippocampal neurons. ROCK1 was targeted and negatively regulated by miR-214. The overexpression of ROCK1 led to activation of NF-κB to aggravate CIRI. CONCLUSION Therapeutic effects of DEX on CIRI was elicited by overexpressing miR-214 and impairing ROCK1 expression and NF-κB activation. Our finding might provide novel insights into the molecular mechanism of DEX in rats with CIRI.

Abstract
BACKGROUND Osteogenic differentiation of human periodontal ligament stem cells is essential to periodontal regeneration treatment for periodontitis. This study investigated the mechanism of lncRNAs-related osteogenic differentiation. METHODS Human periodontal ligament stem cells were extracted from human periodontal ligament and identified via flow cytometry. After being induced into osteogenic differentiation for three weeks using osteoblast inducing conditional media, human periodontal ligament stem cells were transfected with siRNA-MALAT1, or miR-155-5p inhibitor. Human periodontal ligament stem cells osteogenesis was observed by alkaline phosphatase staining, followed by alizarin red staining for evaluating mineralized nodes formation. Runt-related gene 2, collagen-1 and osteocalcin expressions were assessed by western blot and qRT-PCR. RESULTS MALAT1 expression was assumed a negative correlation with miR-155-5p expression which was dropping over time in differentiating human periodontal ligament stem cells. MALAT1 could bind with miR-155-5p, and E26 transformation specific-1 (ETS1) was the targeted gene of miR-155-5p. Silenced MALAT1 suppressed ALP activity and mineralized nodes formation and inhibited the expressions of runt-related gene 2, collagen-1 and osteocalcin in differentiating human periodontal ligament stem cells, while miR-155-5p inhibitor reversed the effect of si-MALAT1 on differentiation of human periodontal ligament stem cells. CONCLUSION MALAT1 modulated differentiation of human periodontal ligament stem cells via regulating miR-155-5p.

Abstract
Non-coding RNAs have been found to regulate several developmental processes among them is osteogenesis. Although these transcripts have several distinct classes, two classes i.e. microRNAs and long non-coding RNAs have attained more attention. These transcripts regulate intramembranous as well as endochondral ossification processes. The effects of microRNAs on osteogenesis are mostly mediated through modulation of Wnt/β-catenin and TGFβ/BMP pathways. Long non-coding RNAs can directly affect expression of these pathways or osteogenic transcription factors. Moreover, they can serve as a molecular sponge for miRNAs. MALAT1/miR-30, MALAt1/miR-214, LEF1-AS1/miR-24-3p, MCF2L-AS1/miR-33a, MSC-AS1/miR-140-5p and KCNQ1OT1/miR-214 are examples of such kind of interaction between lncRNAs and miRNAs in the context of osteogenesis. In the current paper, we explain these two classes of non-coding RNAs in the osteogenesis and related disorders.

Abstract
Objective Osteoporosis and osteoarthritis are metabolic skeletal disorders. This study
aimed to identify specific networks of competitive endogenous RNA (ceRNA) in
osteoporosis that differ from those in osteoarthritis. Methods The dataset GSE74209 was downloaded from the Gene Expression Omnibus, and
differentially expressed microRNAs (DEmiRNAs) in osteoporotic samples and
osteoarthritic samples were identified. After predicting target genes and
linked long noncoding (lnc)RNAs, ceRNA networks of DEmiRNAs were
constructed. The nodes that overlapped between ceRNA networks and the
Comparative Toxicogenomics Database were selected as key candidates. Results Fifteen DEmiRNAs (including 2 downregulated and 13 upregulated miRNAs) were
identified in osteoporotic samples versus osteoarthritic samples; these
targeted 161 genes and linked to 60 lncRNAs. The ceRNA network consisted of
6 DEmiRNAs, 63 target genes, and 53 lncRNAs. After searching the Comparative
Toxicogenomics Database and mining the literature, 2 lncRNAs
(MALAT1 and NEAT1), 2 DEmiRNAs
(hsa-miR-32-3p,
downregulated; and hsa-miR-22-3p, upregulated) and 6 genes
(SP1, PTEN, ESR1,
ERBB3, CSF1R, and
CDK6) that relate to cell death, growth, and
differentiation were identified as key candidates separating osteoporosis
from osteoarthritis. Conclusions Two miRNA–ceRNA networks (including
NEAT1/MALAT1-hsa-miR-32-3p-SP1/FZD6
and
NEAT1/MALAT1-hsa-miR-22-3p-PTEN/ESR1/ERBB3/CSF1R/CDK6)
might have crucial and specific roles in osteoporosis.

Abstract
Osteogenic differentiation and bone regeneration are complex processes involving multiple genes and multiple steps. In this review, we summarize the effects of the long noncoding RNA (lncRNA) H19 on osteogenic differentiation. Osteogenic differentiation includes matrix secretion and calcium mineralization as hallmarks of osteoblast differentiation and the absorption of calcium and phosphorus as hallmarks of osteoclast differentiation. Mesenchymal stem cells (MSCs) form osteoprogenitor cells, pre-osteoblasts, mature osteoblasts, and osteocytes through induction and differentiation. lncRNAs regulate the expression of coding genes and play essential roles in osteogenic differentiation and bone regeneration. The lncRNA H19 is known to have vital roles in osteogenic induction. This review highlights the role of H19 as a novel target for osteogenic differentiation and the promotion of bone regeneration.

Abstract
BACKGROUND Steroid-induced osteonecrosis of the femoral head (SONFH) is a devastating orthopedic disease, which seriously affects the quality of life of patients. The study aims to investigate the effects of LncRNA NORAD on SONFH. METHODS Human bone marrow-derived mesenchymal stem cells (hBMSCs) were isolated from the proximal femur of patients during routine orthopedic surgery and then cultured with dexamethasone (Dex) and transfected with NORAD overexpression vector, siRNA-NORAD and miR-26a-5p mimics. The mRNA expression of NORAD, miR-26a-5p, OPG, RANK, and RANKL was detected by RT-qPCR. Cell proliferation and apoptosis was measured by CCK-8 assay and flow cytometry, respectively. The protein expression of RUNX2, OPG, RANK, and RANKL was detected by western blot. The dual-luciferase reporter gene assay was performed to confirm the binding between NORAD and miR-26a-5p. RESULTS NORAD expression was downregulated in SONFH tissues, while miR-26a-5p expression was upregulated. Overexpression of NORAD improved DEX-induced inhibition of proliferation and differentiation, and promotion of apoptosis in hBMSCs, while knockdown of NORAD led to the opposite results. Moreover, NORAD improved DEX-induced inhibition of proliferation and differentiation, and promotion of apoptosis by regulation of miR-26a-5p in hBMSCs. CONCLUSIONS NORAD expression was downregulated in SONFH tissues, while miR-26a-5p expression was upregulated. NORAD improved DEX-induced inhibition of proliferation and differentiation, and promotion of apoptosis by regulation of miR-26a-5p in hBMSCs.

Abstract
OBJECTIVE This study was performed to illustrate the potential relationship between reduced serum and local LncRNA MALAT1 expressions with disease severity in patients with non-traumatic osteonecrosis of the femoral head (ONFH). METHODS A total of 104 patients with non-traumatic ONFH and 100 healthy controls were consecutively recruited from our hospital. Serum and local LncRNA MALAT1 expressions were detected using real-time polymerase chain reaction (RT-PCR). Radiographic progression was defined by Ficat classification. Clinical severity was evaluated by Visual Analog Scale (VAS) and Harris Hip Score (HHS). Receiver operating characteristic (ROC) curve was carried out to determine the diagnostic value of MALAT1 in the radiographic progression. RESULTS Serum LncRNA MALAT1 expressions were significantly lower in non-traumatic ONFH patients than in healthy controls. In addition, local MALAT1 expressions in non-traumatic ONFH tissue were significantly lower in the affected area than in the non-affected area. Ficat grade 4 has significantly lower serum and local LncRNA MALAT1 expressions in comparison with grade 3, and Ficat grade 3 showed markedly decreased serum and local LncRNA MALAT1 expressions compared with grade 2. Serum and local LncRNA MALAT1 expressions were significantly and negatively associated with VAS and positively related to the HHS. Further ROC curve analysis indicated that serum MALAT1 may act as a decent indicator in the diagnosis of non-traumatic ONFH. CONCLUSIONS Decreased serum and local MALAT1 expressions may reflect disease severity in non-traumatic ONFH patients.
