Background: Integrins are closely related to mechanical conduction and play a crucial role in the osteogenesis of human mesenchymal stem cells. Here we wondered whether tensile stress could influence cell differentiation through integrin αVβ3.

Methods: We inhibited the function of integrin αVβ3 of human mesenchymal stem cells by treating with c(RGDyk). Using cytochalasin D and verteporfin to inhibit polymerization of microfilament and function of nuclear Yes-associated protein (YAP), respectively. For each application, mesenchymal stem cells were loaded by cyclic tensile stress of 10% at 0.5 Hz for 2 h daily. Mesenchymal stem cells were harvested on day 7 post-treatment. Western blotting and quantitative RT-PCR were used to detect the expression of alkaline phosphatase (ALP), RUNX2, β-actin, integrin αVβ3, talin-1, vinculin, FAK, and nuclear YAP. Immunofluorescence staining detected vinculin, actin filaments, and YAP nuclear localization.

Results: Cyclic tensile stress could increase the expression of ALP and RUNX2. Inhibition of integrin αVβ3 activation led to rearrangement of actin filaments and downregulated the expression of ALP, RUNX2 and promoted YAP nuclear localization. When microfilament polymerization was inhibited, ALP, RUNX2, and nuclear YAP nuclear localization decreased. Inhibition of YAP nuclear localization could reduce the expression of ALP and RUNX2.

Conclusions: Cyclic tensile stress promotes early osteogenesis of human mesenchymal stem cells via the integrin αVβ3-actin filaments axis. YAP nuclear localization participates in this process of human mesenchymal stem cells. Video Abstract.

Osteoarthritis (OA) presents a significant therapeutic challenge, with few options for preserving joint cartilage and repairing associated tissue damage. Inflammation is a pivotal factor in OA-induced cartilage deterioration and synovial inflammation. Recently, exosomes derived from human umbilical cord mesenchymal stem cells (HucMSCs) have gained recognition as a promising noncellular therapeutic modality, but their use is hindered by the challenge of harvesting a sufficient number of exosomes with effective therapeutic efficacy.

To investigate the effect of concentrated growth factor (CGF) on the biological performance of human dental pulp stem cells (hDPSCs) under oxidative stress status induced by hydrogen peroxide (HO). The hDPSCs were isolated by using tissue block separation method from healthy permanent teeth extracted for orthodontic reason. hDPSCs surface markers CD34, CD45, CD90 and CD105 were detected by flow cytometry.

Pioneering work in the chicken established that the initial development of the heart consists of two stages: the quick assembly of a beating heart, followed by the recruitment of cells from adjacent tissues to deliver the mature in-and outflow tract. Cells to build the primitive heart were dubbed the first heart field (FHF) cells, cells to be recruited later the second heart field (SHF) cells. The current view is that these cells represent distinct, maybe even pre-determined lineages.

In recent years, attempts were made to develop biomaterials using synthetic and natural polymers to induce osteogenesis of human mesenchymal stem cells (hMSCs). Poly(ε-caprolactone) (PCL) is one of the few synthetic polymers with the potential to differentiate hMSCs to bone. However, its potential is limited, attributed to its low strength; its fast crystallization rate also compromises its dimensional stability.

Background: Osteoporosis (OP) is a prevalent global health concern, impacting millions of individuals, especially the elderly. The etiology of senile OP is associated with the imbalance of osteogenic and adipogenic differentiation in the bone marrow mesenchymal stem cells (BMSCs). The imbalance of BMSCs differentiation fate will leading to bone loss and lipids accumulation.
