摘 要:背景:体外过表达核因子I-C基因可促进人根尖牙乳头干细胞的分化,Wnt/β-catenin信号通路的激活也可促进人根尖牙乳头干细胞的分化,而且核因子I-C对间充质干细胞中Wnt/β-catenin通路具有调节作用。然而,核因子I-C能否通过激活人根尖牙乳头干细胞中Wnt/β-catenin通路进而影响细胞分化,目前尚未见报道。目的:探讨核因子I-C通过Wnt/β-Catenin信号通路调控人根尖牙乳头干细胞分化的作用。方法:玻片覆盖组织块法培养人根尖牙乳头干细胞,慢病毒转染过表达核因子I-C基因。①设置对照组、空载体组和过表达核因子I-C组,Western blot检测β-Catenin、LRP5和TCF7L2的表达。②设置对照组、空载体组、过表达核因子I-C组和过表达核因子I-C+DKK-1(Wnt通路抑制剂)组,细胞成骨诱导7 d后进行碱性磷酸酶染色及活性定量,细胞成骨诱导14 d后qPCR和Western blot检测Runt相关转录因子2、牙本质涎磷蛋白、骨钙素mRNA及蛋白的表达,茜素红染色观察矿化结节形成情况。结果与结论:①与对照组、空载体组相比,过表达核因子I-C组人根尖牙乳头干细胞中Wnt/β-Catenin通路相关蛋白β-Catenin、LRP5、TCF7L2表达显著升高(P<0.01);②与对照组、空载体组相比,过表达核因子I-C组人根尖牙乳头干细胞中碱性磷酸酶活性显著升高(P<0.01),Runt相关转录因子2、牙本质涎磷蛋白、骨钙素mRNA及蛋白表达均显著升高(P<0.01),矿化结节数量显著增加(P<0.01);③与过表达核因子I-C组相比,过表达核因子I-C+DKK-1组人根尖牙乳头干细胞中碱性磷酸酶活性、Runt相关转录因子2、牙本质涎磷蛋白、骨钙素mRNA及蛋白表达显著下降(P<0.05),矿化结节数量显著减少(P<0.05)。结果表明:核因子I-C能够激活人根尖牙乳头干细胞中Wnt/β-catenin信号通路,介导人根尖牙乳头干细胞的成骨/成牙分化。BACKGROUND:Overexpression of the nuclear factor I-C gene in vitro promotes the differentiation of human stem cells from apical papilla,as does the activation of the Wnt/β-catenin signaling pathway.Moreover,nuclear factor I-C regulates the Wnt/β-catenin pathway in mesenchymal stem cells.However,whether nuclear factor I-C can affect cell differentiation by activating the Wnt/β-catenin pathway in human stem cells from apical papilla has not been reported.OBJECTIVE:To investigate the role of nuclear factor I-C in the Wnt/β-catenin signaling pathway in regulating the differentiation of human stem cells from apical papilla.METHODS:Human stem cells from apical papilla were cultured by the slide-covered tissue block method and lentiviral transfection overexpressing the nuclear factor I-C gene.(1)A control group,an empty viral vector group,and an overexpressed nuclear factor I-C gene group were set up.The expression ofβ-Catenin,LRP5,and TCF7L2 was detected by Western blotting.(2)The control group,empty viral vector group,overexpressed nuclear factor I-C gene group,and overexpressed nuclear factor I-C gene+DKK-1(Wnt pathway inhibitor)group were set up.Alkaline phosphatase staining and activity quantification were performed after 7 days of osteogenic induction.qPCR and Western blotting were performed to detect the expression of Runt-related transcription factor 2,dentin salivary phosphoprotein,osteocalcin mRNA,and protein after 14 days of osteogenic induction.Alizarin Red staining was used to observe the formation of mineralized nodules.RESULTS AND CONCLUSION:(1)Compared with the control and empty viral vector groups,the expression of Wnt/β-Catenin pathway-related proteinsβ-Catenin,LRP5,and TCF7L2 in human apical dentin papilla stem cells was significantly increased in the overexpressed nuclear factor I-C gene group(P<0.01).(2)Compared with the control and empty viral vector groups,the expression of alkaline phosphatase and osteocalcin in human apical dentin papilla stem cells was significantly increased(P<0.01);the
