<p>Background: Osteoporosis increases bone brittleness and the risk of fracture. Umbilical cord mesenchymal stem cell (UCMSC) treatment is effective, but how to improve the biological activity and clinical efficacy of UCMSCs has not been determined.
METHODS: A rat model of osteoporosis was induced with dexamethasone sodium phosphate. Highly active umbilical cord mesenchymal stem cells (HA-UCMSCs) and UCMSCs were isolated, cultured, identified, and infused intravenously once at a dose of 2.29 × 106 cells/kg. In the 4th week of treatment, bone mineral density (BMD) was evaluated via cross-micro-CT, tibial structure was observed via HE staining, osteogenic differentiation of bone marrow mesenchymal stem cells (BMMSCs) was examined via alizarin red staining, and carboxy-terminal cross-linked telopeptide (CTX), nuclear factor-κβ ligand (RANKL), procollagen type 1 N-terminal propeptide (PINP) and osteoprotegerin (OPG) levels were investigated via enzyme-linked immunosorbent assays (ELISAs). BMMSCs were treated with 10-6 mol/L dexamethasone and cocultured with HA-UCMSCs and UCMSCs in transwells. The osteogenic and adipogenic differentiation of BMMSCs was subsequently examined through directional induction culture. The protein expression levels of WNT, β-catenin, RUNX2, IFN-γ and IL-17 in the bone tissue were measured via Western blotting.
RESULTS: The BMD in the healthy group was higher than that in the model group. Both UCMSCs and HA-UCMSCs exhibited a fusiform morphology; swirling growth; high expression of CD73, CD90 and CD105; and low expression of CD34 and CD45 and could differentiate into adipocytes, osteoblasts and chondrocytes, while HA-UCMSCs were smaller in size; had a higher nuclear percentage; and higher differentiation efficiency. Compared with those in the model group, the BMD increased, the bone structure improved, the trabecular area, number, and perimeter increased, the osteogenic differentiation of BMMSCs increased, RANKL expression decreased, and PINP expression increased after UCMSC and HA-UCMSC treatment for 4 weeks. Furthermore, the BMD, trabecular area, number and perimeter, calcareous nodule counts, and OPG/RANKL ratio were higher in the HA-UCMSC treatment group than in the UCMSC treatment group. The osteogenic and adipogenic differentiation of dexamethasone-treated BMMSCs was enhanced after the coculture of UCMSCs and HA-UCMSCs, and the HA-UCMSC group exhibited better effects than the UCMSC coculture group. The protein expression of WNT, β-catenin, and runx2 was upregulated, and IFN-γ and IL-17 expression was downregulated after UCMSC and HA-UCMSC treatment.
CONCLUSION: HA-UCMSCs have a stronger therapeutic effect on osteoporosis compared with that of UCMSCs. These effects include an improved bone structure, increased BMD, an increased number and perimeter of trabeculae, and enhanced osteogenic differentiation of BMMSCs via activation of the WNT/β-catenin pathway and inhibition of inflammation.</p>.
