Vitamin K2 Improves Osteogenic Differentiation by Inhibiting STAT1 via the Bcl-6 and IL-6/JAK in C3H10 T1/2 Clone 8 Cells.

ABSTRACT: Osteogenic activity of vitamin K₂ (VK₂), a small molecular nutrient, has been suggested. However, the underlying mechanisms have not been fully elucidated. Therefore, this study aimed to explore the mechanisms by which VK₂ promotes osteogenic differentiation. The effects of VK₂ on osteogenic differentiation indicators were determined in C3H10 T1/2 clone 8 cells. The RNA-seq analysis was used to explore the hypothesis that VK₂ promotes osteogenic differentiation. Small interfering RNA (siRNA) assay and plasmid transfection assay were used to determine the potential role of VK₂ in the modulation of Bcl-6/STAT axis and IL-6/JAK/STAT signaling pathway. VK₂ significantly increased alkaline phosphatase (ALP) activity, ALP, osteocalcin (OCN), and RUNX2 abundance, and RUNX2 protein expression. RNA-seq analysis showed that there were 314 differentially expressed genes (DEGs) upregulated and 1348 DEGs downregulated by VK₂. PPI analysis determined the top 10 hub genes upregulated or downregulated by VK₂. Overexpression of Bcl-6 increased osteogenic differentiation and decreased expression of STAT1. Administration with VK₂ restored the inhibition by siBcl-6 in osteogenic differentiation. Knockdown of IL-6 decreased the mRNA levels of genes associated with the JAK/STAT signaling pathway, and increased markers of osteoblast differentiation. Furthermore, treatment with VK₂ improved inhibition in osteogenic differentiation and decreased enhancement of JAK/STAT signaling pathway related genes by overexpression of IL-6. Our study suggests that VK₂ could improve osteogenic differentiation via the Bcl-6/STAT axis and IL-6/JAK/STAT signaling pathway.

Project description:Human hepatocellular carcinoma cells, HepG2 , cultured in DMEM containing 10% fetal calf serum. To study gene expression changes induced by Vitamin K2, total RNA was isolated following the Isogen procedure (Nippon-gene, Tokyo, Japan) from HepG2 cells with and without 50 microM of Vitamin K2 treatment for three days. The cDNA microarrays Human Oligo Chip 30K “AceGene” subset A was purchased from Hitachi Software Engineering Co. (Yokohama-City, Japan). This array contains 10368 kinds of gene-specific 50 mer sense oligonucleotides. Subset A contains mainly known function ORF oligo probes. Preparation of fluorescent cDNA targets by an indirect labeling approach was performed using PowerScript reverse transcription kit (Clontech). First-strand cDNAs were synthesized from 30 microg of total RNA from HepG2 cells treated with or without Vitamin K2 using random primer and PoweScript Fluorescent Labelling Kit. Monofunctional, N-hydroxysuccinimide-activated fluorescent dyes (Cy3 and Cy5; Amersham) were coupled to the cDNAs by reaction with the amino functional groups. Untreated cells were labeled with Cy3 as a control and treated cells with Cy5 as a sample. After free dyes were removed using MinElute Purification kit (Qiagen), the targets were mixed together and added to the microarrays, and then incubated overnight (16 hours) at 42?C. The slides were washed at 30?C in each with 2x SSC, 0.1% SDS and 2x SSC for 10 min and 5 min, respectively, and washed in 1x SSC for 5 min. Fluorescent images of the hybridized microarrays were scanned with a fluorescence laser confocal slide scanner (Affymetrix 428 Array Scanner, Affymetrix, Santa Clara, CA). The Cy3 and Cy5 intensities with background subtraction were determined by ImaGene 4.2 software (BioDiscovery, Marina Del Rey, CA). The expression data were then filtered based on their channel intensities, spot size and flag (missing or inaccurate data), and the Cy5/Cy3 ratios were calculated and normalized by median-centering the log-ratio of all genes.
