Abstrakt: Aims: Cell therapy utilizing mesenchymal stem cells (MSCs) from healthy donors (HE-MSCs) is a promising strategy for treating osteoporotic bone defects. This study investigated the effects of interaction between HE-MSCs and MSCs from osteoporotic donors (ORX-MSCs) on osteoblast differentiation of MSCs and of HE-MSCs on bone formation in calvarial defects of osteoporotic rats.
Materials and Methods: Osteoporosis was induced by orchiectomy (ORX) and its effects on the bone were evaluated by femur microtomography (μCT) and osteoblast differentiation of bone marrow MSCs. HE- and ORX-MSCs were cocultured, and osteoblast differentiation was evaluated using genotypic and phenotypic parameters. HE-MSCs were injected into the calvarial defects of osteoporotic rats, and bone formation was evaluated by μCT, histology, and gene expression of osteoblast markers.
Key Findings: ORX-induced osteoporosis was revealed by reduced bone morphometric parameters and osteoblast differentiation in ORX-MSCs. HE-MSCs partially recovered the osteogenic potential of ORX-MSCs, whereas HE-MSCs were mildly affected by ORX-MSCs. Additionally, the bone morphogenetic protein and wingless-related integration site signaling pathway components were similarly modulated in cocultures involving ORX-MSCs. HE-MSCs induced meaningful bone formation, highlighting the effectiveness of cell therapy even in osteoporotic bones.
Significance: These results provide new perspectives on the development of cell-based therapies to regenerate bone defects in patients with disorders that affect bone tissue.
