Influence of silencing ZHX3 on BMP2/smad pathway in BMSCs
Objective:To investigate the effects of silencing zinc fingers and homeoboxes 3(ZHX3) on expressions of bone morphogenetic proteins 2(BMP2)
phospho-smad1(or pho-smad1)in BMP2/smad pathway in bone marrow mesenchymal stem cells(BMSCs).Methods:ZHX3 low expression vector was constructed to transfect the rat BMSCs. At the same time
BMSCs transfected with no-load virus was taken as negative control group and BMSCs without any treatment as blank control group. Fluorescence microscope was used to determinate cell transfection rate. Immunocytochemistry method was used to identify the success of the transfection. Immunocytochemistry and Western blot were used to detect the protein expressions of BMP2
phospho-smad1
smad4 when silencing ZHX3 gene. Osteogenesis ability of cell after inducement of osteogenesis solution was detected by alkaline phosphatase and alizarin red staining. Results:1 Cells expressing BMSCs phenotype could be obtained by recovery culturing. 2After transfection
transfection rate of the ZHX3 low expression group and negative control group was(93.18±4.41)% and(92.56±4.35)% respectively
but no transfection cell was observed in blank control group(F=1 123.464
P<0.05). 3 According to the results of immunocytochemistry and Western blot
positive expressions of BMP2
pho-smad1
smad4 were observed in three groups
but their expressions were higher in ZHX3 low expression group(0.383 0±0.006 3
0.329 1±0.025 8)than in blank control group(0.306 2±0.011 6
0.209 0±0.017 0)group and negative control group(0.291 2 ±0.022 2
0.180 0 ±0.018 7
P <0.05). Expression of smad4 was lower in ZHX3 low expression group(0.107 4±0.004 3)than in blank control group(0.380 1±0.023 6)and negative control group(0.353 7±0.016 7
P<0.05). 4Positive expression of nalkaline phosphatase was observed in cells in all groups
however
its quantity was higher in blank control group and negative control group than in ZHX3 low expression group. Conclusion :ZHX3 gene silencing may delay BMSCs in vitro osteogenesis
which may through the regulation of smad4 in BMP/smad pathway.
