Abstract (original English)
Background Recent evidence suggests that accumulation of marrow adipose tissue induced by aberrant lineage allocation of bone marrow-derived mesenchymal stromal cells (BMSCs) contributes to the pathophysiologic processes of osteoporosis. Although master regulators of lineage commitment have been well documented, molecular switches between osteogenesis and adipogenesis are largely unknown. Methods HSPB7 gene expression during osteogenic and adipogenic differentiation of BMSCs was evaluated by qPCR and Western blot analyses. Lentiviral-mediated knockdown or overexpression of HSPB7 and its deletion constructs were used to assess its function. The organization of cytoskeleton was examined by immunofluorescent staining. ALP activity, calcium assay, Alizarin Red S staining and Oil Red O staining were performed in vitro during osteoblast or adipocyte differentiation. SB431542 and Activin A antibody were used to identify the mechanism of Activin A in the regulation of osteogenic differentiation in BMSCs. Results In this study, we identified HSPB7 capable of oppositely regulating osteogenic and adipogenic differentiation of BMSCs. HSPB7 silencing promoted adipogenesis while reducing osteogenic differentiation and mineralization. Conversely, overexpression of HSPB7 strongly enhanced osteogenesis, but no effect was observed on adipogenic differentiation. Deletion of the N-terminal or C-te
