Abstract
Objective: A specific type of mesenchymal stem/progenitor cells (MSPCs), CD105+ is reported to aid in cartilage regeneration through TGF-β/Smad2-signalling. The purpose of this study was to identify and characterize CD105+ MSPCs in temporomandibular joint (TMJ) cartilage.
Materials and methods: MSPCs were isolated from mouse TMJ condyle explants and evaluated for their clonogenicity and pluripotential abilities. MSPC were examined for CD105 antigen using immunohistochemistry and flow cytometry.
Results: Immunohistochemistry revealed presence of CD105+ MSPCs in the proliferative zone of condyle's cartilage. Only 0.2% of isolated MSPCs exhibited CD105, along with the stem cell surface markers CD44 and Sca-1. In CD105+ MSPCs, intracellular immunostaining revealed significantly higher (p < 0.05) protein levels of collagen type 1, 2, proteoglycan 4. Ability for chondrogenic differentiation was found to be significantly higher (p < 0.05) after 4 weeks compared to CD105- cells, using alcian blue staining. CD105+ cells were found to resemble an early MSPC subgroup with significantly higher gene expression of biglycan, proteoglycan 4, collagen type 2, Gli2, Sox5 (p < 0.001) and Sox9 (p < 0.05). In contrast, significantly lower levels of Runx2 (p < 0.05), Osterix, Trps1, Col10a1 (p < 0.01), Ihh (p < 0.001) related to chondrocyte senescence and commitment to osteogenic lineage, were observed compared to CD105- cells.
Conclusion: The study showed the existence of a CD105+ MSPC subgroup within TMJ fibrocartilage that may be activated to aid in fibrocartilage repair.
目的:据报道,一种特殊类型的间充质干/祖细胞(MSPCs)CD105+通过TGF-β/Smad2信号传导帮助软骨再生。本研究的目的是鉴定和表征颞下颌关节(TMJ)软骨中CD105+MSPCs。材料和方法:从小鼠TMJ髁突外植体中分离出MSPCs,并对其克隆性和多潜能进行评估。应用免疫组织化学和流式细胞术检测MSPC的CD105抗原。结果:免疫组化显示髁突软骨增生区存在CD105+MSPCs。只有0.2%的分离的MSPCs表现出CD105以及干细胞表面标志物CD44和Sca-1。在CD105+MSPCs中,细胞内免疫染色显示显著更高(p p - 细胞,使用阿尔辛蓝染色。CD105+细胞与早期MSPC亚组相似,具有显著更高的二甘聚糖、蛋白多糖4、2型胶原、Gli2、Sox5基因表达(p p p p p - 细胞。结论:研究表明TMJ纤维软骨中存在CD105+MSPC亚群,该亚群可能被激活以帮助纤维软骨修复。
