In Vitro Modelling of Osteogenesis Imperfecta with Patient-Derived Induced Mesenchymal Stem Cells.

ABSTRACT: (1) Mesenchymal stem cells (MSCs) are a valuable cell model to study the bone pathology of Osteogenesis Imperfecta (OI), a rare genetic collagen-related disorder characterized by bone fragility and skeletal dysplasia. We aimed to generate a novel OI induced mesenchymal stem cell (iMSC) model from induced pluripotent stem cells (iPSCs) derived from human dermal fibroblasts. For the first time, OI iMSCs generation was based on an intermediate neural crest cell (iNCC) stage. (2) Skin fibroblasts from healthy individuals and OI patients were reprogrammed into iPSCs and subsequently differentiated into iMSCs via iNCCs. (3) Successful generation of iPSCs from acquired fibroblasts was confirmed with changes in cell morphology, expression of iPSC markers SOX2, NANOG, and OCT4 and three germ-layer tests. Following differentiation into iNCCs, cells presented increased iNCC markers including P75NTR, TFAP2A, and HNK-1 and decreased iPSC markers, shown to reach the iNCC stage. Induction into iMSCs was confirmed by the presence of CD73, CD105, and CD90 markers, low expression of the hematopoietic, and reduced expression of the iNCC markers. iMSCs were trilineage differentiation-competent, confirmed using molecular analyses and staining for cell-type-specific osteoblast, adipocyte, and chondrocyte markers. (4) In the current study, we have developed a multipotent in vitro iMSC model of OI patients and healthy controls able to differentiate into osteoblast-like cells.

Project description:A growing body of work suggests that canine mesenchymal stromal cells (cMSCs) require additional agonists such as bone morphogenic protein-2 (BMP-2) for consistent in vitro osteogenic differentiation. BMP-2 is costly and may challenge the translational relevance of the canine model. Dexamethasone enhances osteogenic differentiation of human MSCs (hMSCs) and is widely utilized in osteogenic protocols. The aim of this study was to determine the effect of BMP-2 and dexamethasone on early- and late-stage osteogenesis of autologous and induced pluripotent stem cell (iPS)-derived cMSCs. Two preparations of marrow-derived cMSCs were selected to represent exceptionally or marginally osteogenic autologous cMSCs. iPS-derived cMSCs were generated from canine fibroblasts. All preparations were evaluated using alkaline phosphatase (ALP) activity, Alizarin Red staining of osteogenic monolayers, and quantitative polymerase chain reaction. Data were reported as mean ± standard deviation and compared using one- or two-way analysis of variance and Tukey or Sidak post hoc tests. Significance was established at P < 0.05. In early-stage assays, dexamethasone decreased ALP activity for all cMSCs in the presence of BMP-2. In late-stage assays, inclusion of dexamethasone and BMP-2 at Day 1 of culture produced robust monolayer mineralization for autologous cMSCs. Delivering 100 nM dexamethasone at Day 1 improved mineralization and reduced the BMP-2 concentrations required to achieve mineralization of the marginal cMSCs. For iPS-cMSCs, dexamethasone was inhibitory to both ALP activity and monolayer mineralization. There was increased expression of osteocalcin and osterix with BMP-2 in autologous cMSCs but a more modest expression occurred in iPS cMSCs. While autologous and iPS-derived cMSCs respond similarly in early-stage osteogenic assays, they exhibit unique responses to dexamethasone and BMP-2 in late-stage mineralization assays. This study demonstrates that dexamethasone and BMP-2 can be titrated in a time- and concentration-dependent manner to enhance osteogenesis of autologous cMSC preparations. These results will prove useful for investigators performing translational studies with cMSCs while providing insight into iPS-derived cMSC osteogenesis.
