Popis: | In our previous study, we constructed Schwann cells (SCs) that stably express Simian virus 40 T antigen (SV40T-SCs). SV40T-SCs functions and markers are similar to those of neural crest cells. There we used bone morphogenetic protein 9 (BMP9) to induce SV40T-SCs differentiation in vitro and in vivo and study possible related mechanism. SV40T-SCs differentiation was induced by BMP9 conditioned medium. The lipogenic differentiation of SV40T-SCs was assessed by Oil Red O staining. Alizarin red and Alcian blue staining, and alkaline phosphatase (ALP) assays were used to evaluate the SV40T-SCs osteogenic differentiation. The expression of adipocyte differentiation (c/EBPα and c/EBPβ) and osteoblast differentiation markers (OSX and RUNX2) were detected by quantitative polymerase chain reaction (qPCR). To study possible mechanism related to SV40T-SCs differentiation, the P53 and E2F1 activity were assessed by luciferase reporter plasmid, and Slug and E-cadherin expression by qPCR. In vivo, SV40T-SCs infected by Ad-BMP9 or Ad-GFP were injected under the skin of nude mice. After 4-6 W, the mice were euthanized and subcutaneously mass formed at injecting sites was collected for pathological analysis. After SV40T-SCs were cultured in BMP9 conditioned medium, lipid droplets were formed in the cytoplasm of these cells. Alizarin red and Alcian blue staining were positive, and ALP activity of SV40T-SCs increased significantly. The expression of adipocyte differentiation (c/EBPα and c/EBPβ) and osteoblast differentiation markers (OSX and RUNX2) in SV40T-SCs was upregulated by BMP9. SV40T significantly increased Slug expression and decreased E-cadherin expression. SV40T-SCs infected with Ad-BMP9 were able to differentiate into adipose tissue and form a small bone matrix under the nude mice skin. SV40T-SCs have the ability to differentiate into adipocytes and osteoblasts in vivo and in vitro. SV40T can upregulate the Slug expression and downregulate the E-cadherin expression to produce endothelial-to-mesenchymal transition (EMT). The multidirectional differentiation ability of SV40T-SCs may be related to EMT. |
