Article Abstract

This study aimed to investigate the molecular mechanisms of microRNA-146a (miR-146a) on gingival mesenchymal stem cells (MSCs). Gingival MSCs were isolated from the gingiva tissues of patients with periodontal disease to reveal the function of miR-146a in regulating osteoblast differentiation. miR-146a inhibits osteoblast differentiation by inhibiting phosphorylated cyclic-AMP response binding (CREB) protein translocation into the nucleus and ultimately attenuating runt-related transcription factor 2 (Runx2) expression. Furthermore, silencing miR-146a promotes the proliferation of gingival MSCs. Of note, targeted inhibition of miR-146a also inhibited LPS-induced inflammatory response and promoted the proliferation of gingival MSCs via CREB/Runx2 axis. MiR-146a is a key negative regulator of gingival MSCs proliferation and osteogenic differentiation, and targeting to reduce the miR-146a expression is essential for bone formation signaling. Therefore, we propose that miR-146a is a useful therapeutic target for the development of bone anabolic strategies.

Mesenchymal stem cell-mediated adipogenic transformation: a key driver of oral squamous cell carcinoma progression.

Stem Cell Res Ther

January 2025

Department of Stomatology, The Third Affiliated Hospital, Sun Yat-sen University, Guangzhou, 510630, China.

Background: Interaction between mesenchymal stem cells (MSCs) and oral squamous cell carcinoma (OSCC) cells plays a major role in OSCC progression. However, little is known about adipogenic differentiation alteration in OSCC-derived MSCs (OSCC-MSCs) and how these alterations affect OSCC growth.

Methods: MSCs were successfully isolated and cultured from normal gingival tissue, OSCC peritumoral tissue, and OSCC tissue.

Periodontal disease is a highly prevalent disease worldwide that seriously affects people's oral health, including gingivitis and periodontitis. Although the current treatment of periodontal disease can achieve good control of inflammation, it is difficult to regenerate the periodontal supporting tissues to achieve a satisfactory therapeutic effect. In recent years, due to the good tissue regeneration ability, the research on Mesenchymal stromal/stem cells (MSCs) and MSC-derived exosomes has been gradually deepened, especially its ability to interact with the microenvironment of the body in the complex immunoregulatory network, which has led to many new perspectives on the therapeutic strategies for many diseases.

Cellular senescence is intricately linked with numerous changes observed in the aging process, including the depletion of the stem cell pool and the decline in tissue and organ functions. Over the past three decades, efforts to halt and reverse aging have intensified, bringing rejuvenation closer to reality. Current strategies involve treatments using stem cells or their derivatives, such as the secretome.

Purpose: Exosomes from mesenchymal stromal cells (MSCs) can prevent the development of medication-related osteonecrosis of the jaw (MRONJ) by promoting tooth socket wound healing; however, the exact mechanism remains to be clarified. In this study, our aim was to explore the mechanisms of exosomes derived from adipose-derived mesenchymal stromal cells (ADSCs) in preventing MRONJ by focusing on macrophage M1 polarization and pyroptosis.

Methods: The MRONJ model was established by the administration of zoledronate and tooth extraction.
