Abstract
Osteoporosis is characterized by reduced bone mass due to imbalanced bone metabolism. Exosomes derived from bone mesenchymal stem cells (BMSCs) have been shown to play roles in various diseases. This study aimed to clarify the regulatory function and molecular mechanism of BMSCs-derived exosomes in osteogenic differentiation and their potential therapeutic effects on osteoporosis. Exosomes were extracted from BMSCs. Bone marrow-derived macrophages (BMDMs) were cultured and internalized with BMSCs-derived exosomes. Real-time quantitative PCR was used to detect the expression of macrophage surface markers and tripartite motif (TRIM) family genes. BMDMs were co-cultured with human osteoblasts to assess osteogenic differentiation. Western blot was performed to analyze the ubiquitination of triggering receptor expressed on myeloid cell 1 (TREM1) mediated by TRIM25. An ovariectomized mice model was established to evaluate the role of TRIM25 and exosomes in osteoporosis. Exosomes were successfully isolated from BMSCs. BMSCs-derived exosomes upregulated TRIM25 expression, promoting M2 macrophage polarization and osteogenic differentiation. TRIM25 facilitated the ubiquitination and degradation of TREM1. Overexpression of TREM1 reversed the enhanced M2 macrophage polarization and osteogenic differentiation caused by TRIM25 overexpression. TRIM25 enhanced the protective effect of BMSCs-derived exosomes against bone loss in mice. These findings suggested that BMSCs-derived exosomes promoted osteogenic differentiation by regulating M2 macrophage polarization through TRIM25-mediated ubiquitination and degradation of TREM1. This mechanism might provide a novel approach for treating osteoporosis.
期刊介绍:
Molecular Medicine is an open access journal that focuses on publishing recent findings related to disease pathogenesis at the molecular or physiological level. These insights can potentially contribute to the development of specific tools for disease diagnosis, treatment, or prevention. The journal considers manuscripts that present material pertinent to the genetic, molecular, or cellular underpinnings of critical physiological or disease processes. Submissions to Molecular Medicine are expected to elucidate the broader implications of the research findings for human disease and medicine in a manner that is accessible to a wide audience.
