Abstract (original English)

To investigate the role of high-mobility group AT-hook 2 (HMGA2) in osteogenic differentiation of adipose-derived mesenchymal stem cells (ADSCs) and the effect of Hmga2 knockdown for promoting bone defect repair. Bioinformatics studies using the GEO database and Rstudio software identified HMGA2 as a key factor in adipogenic-osteogenic differentiation balance of ADSCs. The protein-protein interaction network of HMGA2 in osteogenic differentiation was mapped using String and visualized with Cytoscape to predict the downstream targets of HMGA2. Primary mouse ADSCs (mADSCs) were transfected with Hmga2 siRNA, and the changes in osteogenic differentiation of the cells were evaluated using alkaline phosphatase staining and Alizarin red S staining. The expressions of osteogenic markers Runt-related transcription factor 2 (RUNX2), osteopontin (OPN), and osteocalcein (OCN) in the transfected cells were detected using RT-qPCR and Western blotting. In a mouse model of critical-sized calvarial defects, mADSCs with Hmga2- knockdown were transplanted into the defect, and bone repair was evaluated 6 weeks later using micro-CT scanning and histological staining. GEO database analysis showed that HMGA2 expression was upregulated during adipogenic differentiation of ADSCs. Protein-protein interaction network analysis suggested that the potential HMGA2 targets in osteogenic differentiation of ADS
