Background: Osteoporosis is the most common bone metabolic disease. Emerging evidence suggests that exosomes are secreted by diverse cells such as bone marrow mesenchymal stem cells (BMSCs), and play important role in cell-to-cell communication and tissue homeostasis. Recently, the discovery of exosomes has attracted attention in the field of bone remodeling. Methods: The exosomes were extracted from BMSCs and labeled by PKH-67, and then incubated with hFOB1.19 cells to investigate the miR-196a function on the osteoblast differentiation of hFOB1.19. The osteoblast differentiation was detected via alizarin red staining and the expression of osteoblast genes were detected by western blot. The cell apoptosis was detected by flow cytometer. The target relationship of miR-196a and Dickkopf-1 (Dkk1) were verified by luciferase assay and western blot. Results: Here we demonstrated that exosomes extracted from BMSCs (BMSC-exo) significantly promoted hFOB1.19 differentiation to osteoblasts. We found that BMSC-exo were enriched with miR-196a and delivered miR-196a to hFOB1.19 cells to inhibit its target Dkk1, which is a negative regulator of Wnt/β-catenin pathway. Conclusion: BMSC-exo activated Wnt/β-catenin pathway to promote osteogenic differentiation, while BMSC-exo failed to exert the effects when miR-196a was deprived. In conclusion, miR-196a delivered by exosomes from BMSCs plays an essential role in enhancing osteoblastic differentiation by targeting Dkk1 to activate Wnt/β-catenin pathway. |
