OBJECTIVES: Current study aimed at comparing the human dental pulp-derived stem cell (hDPSC) secretome (Control secretome) and transforming growth factor beta1 (TGF-β1)-transfected hDPSC secretome (TGF-β1 Secretome), which have the potential to be therapeutic in terms of regenerative dentistry, in terms of osteogenesis, adipogenesis and gingival wound healing with proteomic analyses. MATERIALS AND METHODS: pCMV-TGF-β1 plasmid was transfected into hDPSCs by electroporation. hDPSC and TGF-β1 transfected hDPSC secretomes were collected for LC-MS/MS. Protein contents in control secretome and TGF-β1 secretome were analyzed by tandem mass spectrometry-based shotgun proteomic method. Bioinformatic evaluations for canonical pathways, upstream regulators and networks were completed via Ingenuity Pathway Analysis (IPA, QIAGEN) software. Surface marker expressions between groups, treated secretome were measured by flow cytometry. To support the proteomic data morphologically, we performed osteogenic-adipogenic differentiation in hDPSCs treated with control secretome and TGF-β1 secretome, and scratch wound healing assay in gingival fibroblasts. Statistical analyses were performed by GraphPad Prism 8.02. RESULTS: Venn diagram classification showed us 174 common proteins were identified from each group. In the control secretome 140 unique proteins were identified and 66 entries were exclusive for TGF-β1 secretome. TGF-β1 secretome was found to have therapeutic effect on MSC-specific immunophenotypes. TGF-β1 secretome was determined to up-regulate osteogenesis-related molecules and pathways while down-regulating adipogenesis-related pathways. Analysis of canonical pathways showed that TGF-β1 secretome is associated with the wound healing pathway. CONCLUSION: Our study provided the first evidence that proteins identified in TGF-β1-transfected hDPSC secretomes are potential regulators of osteogenic/adipogenic differentiation and fibroblast wound healing. CLINICAL SIGNIFICANCE: Based on these results, TGF-β1 secretome may have a therapeutic effect in repairing osteoporosis-related bone injuries, wound healing of oral mucosa and gingival tissue. TGF-β1 secretome may be a potential cell-free therapeutic in orthopedics and regenerative dentistry.
目的:本研究旨在通过蛋白质组学分析比较人牙髓干细胞(hDPSC)分泌组(对照分泌组)和转化生长因子β1(TGF-β1)转染 hDPSC 分泌组(TGF-β1 分泌组),这两种分泌组在再生牙科方面具有治疗潜力。
材料和方法:通过电穿孔将 pCMV-TGF-β1 质粒转染到 hDPSCs 中。收集 hDPSC 和 TGF-β1 转染 hDPSC 分泌组进行 LC-MS/MS。通过基于串联质谱的鸟枪法蛋白质组学方法分析对照分泌组和 TGF-β1 分泌组中的蛋白质含量。使用 Ingenuity Pathway Analysis(IPA,QIAGEN)软件完成对经典途径、上游调节剂和网络的生物信息学评估。通过流式细胞术测量各组之间的表面标志物表达和处理后的分泌组。为了支持蛋白质组学数据的形态学,我们在 hDPSCs 中进行了对照分泌组和 TGF-β1 分泌组的成骨-成脂分化以及牙龈成纤维细胞的划痕愈合试验。统计分析使用 GraphPad Prism 8.02 进行。
结果:Venn 图分类显示,从每组中鉴定出 174 种共同蛋白质。在对照分泌组中鉴定出 140 种独特蛋白质,而 TGF-β1 分泌组中则有 66 种独特蛋白质。TGF-β1 分泌组对 MSC 特异性免疫表型具有治疗作用。TGF-β1 分泌组被确定为上调成骨相关分子和途径,同时下调成脂相关途径。经典途径分析表明,TGF-β1 分泌组与伤口愈合途径相关。
结论:本研究首次提供了证据表明,TGF-β1 转染的 hDPSC 分泌组中的蛋白质可能是成骨/成脂分化和成纤维细胞伤口愈合的潜在调节剂。
临床意义:基于这些结果,TGF-β1 分泌组可能在修复与骨质疏松相关的骨损伤、口腔黏膜和牙龈组织的伤口愈合方面具有治疗作用。TGF-β1 分泌组可能是骨科和再生牙科的一种潜在无细胞治疗方法。
