Abstract Background Mechanical stimulation (MS) significantly increases the release of adenine and uracil nucleotides from bone marrow-derived mesenchymal stem cells (BM-MSCs) undergoing osteogenic differentiation. Released nucleotides acting via ionotropic P2X7 and metabotropic P2Y6 purinoceptors sensitive to ATP and UDP, respectively, control the osteogenic commitment of BM-MSCs and, thus, bone growth and remodelling. Yet, this mechanism is impaired in post-menopausal (Pm)-derived BM-MSCs, mostly because NTPDase3 overexpression decreases the extracellular accumulation of nucleotides below the levels required to activate plasma membrane-bound P2 purinoceptors. This prompted us to investigate whether in vitro MS of BM-MSCs from Pm women could rehabilitate their osteogenic commitment and whether xenotransplantation of MS purinome-primed Pm cells promote repair of critical bone defects in an in vivo animal model. Methods BM-MSCs were harvested from the neck of femora of Pm women (70 ± 3 years old) undergoing total hip replacement. The cells grew, for 35 days, in an osteogenic-inducing medium either submitted (SS) or not (CTR) to MS (90 r.p.m. for 30 min) twice a week. Increases in alkaline phosphatase activity and in the amount of osteogenic transcription factors, osterix and osteopontin, denoted osteogenic cells differentiation, while bone nodules formation was ascertain by the alizarin red-staining assay. The luciferin-luciferase bioluminescence assay was used to quantify extracellular ATP. The kinetics of the extracellular ATP (100 µM) and UDP (100 µM) catabolism was assessed by HPLC. The density of P2Y6 and P2X7 purinoceptors in the cells was assessed by immunofluorescence confocal microscopy. MS-stimulated BM-MSCs from Pm women were xenotransplanted into critical bone defects drilled in the great trochanter of femora of one-year female Wistar rats; bone repair was assessed by histological analysis 10 days after xenotransplantation. Results MS-stimulated Pm BM-MSCs in culture (i) release 1.6-fold higher ATP amounts, (ii) overexpress P2X7 and P2Y6 purinoceptors, (iii) exhibit higher alkaline phosphatase activity and overexpress the osteogenic transcription factors, osterix and osteopontin, and (iv) form larger bone nodules, than CTR cells. Selective blockage of P2X7 and P2Y6 purinoceptors with A438079 (3 µM) and MRS 2578 (0.1 µM), respectively, prevented the osteogenic commitment of cultured Pm BM-MSCs. Xenotransplanted MS purinome-primed Pm BM-MSCs accelerated the repair of critical bone defects in the in vivo rat model. Conclusions Data suggest that in vitro MS restores the purinergic cell-to-cell communication fostering the osteogenic differentiation and osteointegration of BM-MSCs from Pm women, a strategy that may be used in bone regeneration and repair tactics. |
