Outline of Final Research Achievements |
This study aimed to analyze the function of MSC-derived exosomes (MSC-ex) that were harvested from the different stages of differentiation such as immature-, preosteoblastic differentiated-, osteoblastic differentiated-MSCs. In this study, we firstly analyzed the characters of these 3 different MSC-exes, and then evaluated the characteristic changes of MSCs after cultured in medium with these MSC-exes. As results, we found the osteoblastic differentiated-MSC-ex showed the increased expression of osteoblastic genes such as runx2 or alp. Furthermore, we confirmed these MSC-exes are taken into MSCs during 24 hours in culture, and the osteogenic mRNAs were upregulated in MSCs cultured with osteoblastic-differentiated-MSC-ex. In contrast, immature-MSC-ex showed the higher expression levels of mRNAs related to the vasculogenesis such as vegf. We are currently carrying out in vivo analyses for clarifying the actual usefulness of MSC-exes for bone regeneration.
