miR-127-5p promotes chondrogenic differentiation in rat bone marrow mesenchymal stem cells.
Experimental and Therapeutic Medicine 2017 August
The effect and related mechanisms of miR-127-5p on the cartilage differentiation of rat bone marrow mesenchymal stem cells (BMSCs) was investigated. Rat BMSCs were generated and transfected with miR-127-5p, RT-PCR and Safranin O staining were used to detect the effect of miR-127-5p on the cartilage differentiation of rat BMSCs. Western blot analysis was used to detect the related mechanisms of miR-127-5p on the cartilage differentiation of rat BMSCs. Genes related to cartilage differentiation such as Sox9, collagen II and aggrecan were significantly increased in the group which were transfected with miR-127-5p, while collagen X, which was related to cartilage hypertrophy, was decreased in the miR-127-5p transfected group. Safranin O staining revealed that the expression of chondroitin sulfate was significantly increased in the group of miR-127-5p, than the miRNA control group. Western blot analysis showed that miR-127-5p transfection promoted the expression of Sox9, while decreased the expression of Runx2 of rat BMSCs. In conclusion, via increasing the expression of Sox9 and decreasing the expression of Runx2, miR-127-5p could promote cartilage differentiation and decrease cartilage hypertrophy of rat BMSCs.
