miR-30a inhibits the osteogenic differentiation of the tibia-derived MSCs in congenital pseudarthrosis via targeting HOXD8.
Regenerative Therapy 2022 December
Background: Congenital pseudarthrosis of the tibia (CPT) is an uncommon congenital deformity and a special subtype of bone nonunion. The lower ability of osteogenic differentiation in CPT-derived mesenchymal stem cells (MSCs) could result in progression of CPT, and miR-30a could inhibit osteogenic differentiation. However, the role of miR-30a in CPT-derived MSCs remains unclear.
Methods: The osteogenic differentiation of CPT-derived MSCs treated with the miR-30a inhibitor was tested by Alizarin Red S staining and alkaline phosphatase (ALP) activity. The expression levels of protein and mRNA were assessed by Western blot or quantitative reverse transcription-polymerase chain reaction (RT-qPCR), respectively. The interplay between miR-30a and HOXD8 was investigated by a dual-luciferase reporter assay. Chromatin immunoprecipitation (ChIP) was conducted to assess the binding relationship between HOXD8 and RUNX2 promoter.
Results: CPT-derived MSCs showed a lower ability of osteogenic differentiation than normal MSCs. miR-30a increased in CPT-derived MSCs, and miR-30a downregulation promoted the osteogenic differentiation of CPT-derived MSCs. Meanwhile, HOXD8 is a direct target for miR-30a, and HOXD8 could transcriptionally activate RUNX2. In addition, miR-30a could inhibit the osteogenic differentiation of CPT-derived MSCs by negatively regulating HOXD8.
Conclusion: miR-30a inhibits the osteogenic differentiation of CPT-derived MSCs by targeting HOXD8. Thus, this study might supply a novel strategy against CPT.
