Abstract (original English)

To investigate the effect of GSK-137647A, the first non-carboxylic FFA4 agonist, on osteogenic and adipogenic differentiation of bone mesenchymal stem cells (BMSCs) of db/db mice. Bone mesenchymal stem cells were extracted from 8-week-old db/db mice. Cell Counting Kit-8 was used to evaluate the toxicity of GSK-137647A on BMSCs, and the optimal concentration of GSK-137647A was selected to investigate the osteogenic and adipogenic differentiation of BMSCs, and relevant indicators of osteoblasts and adipocytes were detected. GSK-137647A had no significant toxicity on cell growth and proliferation. Moreover, GSK-137647A showed a significant increase in mineralization of BMSCs differentiated osteoblasts compared to the control group and elevated the alkaline phosphatase (ALP) activity in a time-dependent manner. Meanwhile, the treatment of GSK-137647A decreased the adipogenic differentiation of BMSCs. The expression levels of ALP, runt-related transcription factor 2, bone morphogenetic protein 4, osterix and β-catenin were significantly increased in GSK-137647A-treated group, while the gene and protein levels of peroxisome proliferator-activated receptor γ and CCAAT/enhancer binding protein α were significantly reduced. All of these results demonstrated that GSK-137647A suppressed the adipogenic differentiation and promoted osteogenic differentiation of BMSCs, which is partly attrib
