摘要:

背景:Notch信号通路作为一条在细胞增殖和分化过程中起重要作用的信号通路,目前它在人脐带间充质干细胞在体外向软骨细胞诱导分化过程中的作用仍然未知。

目的:首次探讨Notch信号通路特异性阻断剂2,4-二氨基-5-苯噻唑(DAPT)对人脐带间充质干细胞向软骨细胞诱导分化的影响。
方法:从人脐带中分离获得间充质干细胞,体外向软骨细胞诱导分化。实验分4组:①无诱导组换成含体积分数5%胎牛血清和1%双抗的DMEM高糖培养基培养。②单纯诱导组换成终浓度为6.25 mg/L胰岛素、6.25 mg/L转铁蛋白、10 μg/L转化生长因子β1、0.1 μmol/L地塞米松、50 mg/L维生素C、体积分数5%胎牛血清和1%双抗的软骨诱导培养基培养。③二甲基亚砜组在软骨诱导培养基中加入终浓度为0.1%的二甲基亚砜培养。④2,4-二氨基-5-苯噻唑组在软骨诱导培养基中加入终浓度为5 μmol/L的2,4-二氨基-5-苯噻唑(溶于二甲基亚砜)培养,二甲基亚砜终浓度为0.1%。

结果与结论:诱导人脐带间充质干细胞向软骨细胞分化后,细胞形态由长梭形变为多边形,且甲苯胺蓝染色和免疫荧光染色均呈现阳性;软骨诱导分化后Jag-1、PS-1、Notch-1、Hes-1的基因表达均明显下降(P < 0.01);添加2,4-二氨基-5-苯噻唑后,与单纯诱导组相比,人脐带间充质干细胞中Jag-1、PS-1、Hes-1(P < 0.01)和Notch-1(P < 0.05)的基因表达显著降低;蛋白聚糖和Ⅱ型胶原蛋白含量均降低(P < 0.01);蛋白聚糖的基因表达显著降低(P < 0.01),Ⅱ型胶原蛋白的基因表达也出现一定程度的下降。提示Notch信号存在于人脐带间充质干细胞中,诱导人脐带间充质干细胞向软骨细胞分化后,这种信号强度迅速减弱;2,4-二氨基-5-苯噻唑可能通过Jag-1-Notch-1-Hes-1途径抑制人脐带间充质干细胞向软骨细胞分化。

Abstract:

BACKGROUND: Notch singling pathway is very important for cell proliferation and differentiation, but its role is still unknown during chondrogenesis of human umbilical cord mesenchymal stem cells.

OBJECTIVE: To investigate the effect of N-[N-(3,5-difluorophenacetyl-L-alanyl)]-(S)- phenylglycinet-butyl ester (DAPT) on inducing human umbilical cord mesenchymal stem cell differentiation into chondrocytes.
METHODS: Human umbilical cord mesenchymal stem cells were isolated from human umbilical cord, then were induced to differentiate into chondrocytes. There were four experimental groups: non-induced group, high-glucose Dulbecco’s modified Eagle’s medium containing 5% fetal bovine serum and 1% double antibody; induced group, induced medium containing 6.25 mg/L insulin, 6.25 mg/L transferrin, 10 μg/L transforming growth factor beta 1,
0.1 μmol/L dexamethasone, 50 mg/L vitamin C, 5% fetal bovine serum and 1% double antibody; dimethyl sulfoxide group, induced medium containing 0.1% dimethyl sulfoxide; DAPT group, induced medium containing 5 μmol/L DAPT.

RESULTS AND CONCLUSION: After chondrogenic induction, the morphology of human umbilical cord mesenchymal stem cells became polygon and positive for toluidine blue and immunofluorescence staining; the expression of Jag-1, PS-1, Notch-1 and Hes-1 decreased significantly (P < 0.01). After the addition of DAPT, compared with the induced group, the relative gene expression of Jag-1, PS-1 and Hes-1 decreased markedly (P < 0.01), the relative gene expression of Notch-1 decreased obviously as well (P < 0.05), and the contents of proteoglycan and collagen type II proteins decreased significantly (P < 0.01). At the same time, the relative gene expression of proteoglycan decreased obviously (P < 0.05), and the relative gene expression of collagen type II decreased in part. Notch signaling pathway exists in human umbilical cord mesenchymal stem cells, once chondrogenesis begins, the signaling strength will decline rapidly. DAPT may prevent human umbilical cord mesenchymal stem cells from differentiating into chondrocytes by Jag-1-Notch-1-Hes-1 pathway.
