Abstract:

Objective

The study aimed at investigating the effects of cytoskeleton reorganization inhibition with RNA interference (RNAi) on cell proliferation and differentiation of osteoblasts under fluid shear stress (FSS).

Methods

Mouse primary osteoblasts were cultured and treated with or without LIMK2 specific siRNA, and then loaded or unloaded under FSS. MTT assay, alkaline phosphatase (ALP) activity measurement and cell cycle analysis were conducted to evaluate their effects on cell proliferation and differentiation.

Results

Treated with RNAi only, osteoblasts of each group free of FSS showed no significant difference on the percentage of S-phase cells [(3.600±0.447)% and (3.420±0.217)%, t=-0.810, P>0.05], the proliferation viability (0.208 ± 0.724 and 0.211± 0.044, t=0.251, P>0.05) and the ALP activity (0.095 ± 0.001 and 0.090 ± 0.020,t=-1.857,P>0.05). Without effects of RNAi, FSS up-regulated the percentage of S-phase cells [(11.110 ± 3.840)% >(3.420 ± 0.217)%, t=-4.460, P<0.05], the proliferation viability (0.336 ± 0.029 >0.211 ± 0.044, t=-13.878, P<0.05) and the ALP activity (0.110 ±0.010 >0.090±0.012, t=-7.937, P<0.05) of osteoblasts. And after the cytoskeleton reorganization inhibited with RNAi, the percentage of S-phase cells [(25.140 ± 3.329)% >(3.600 ± 0.447)%,t=-14.339, P<0.05], the proliferation viability (0.480 ± 0.953 >0.208 ± 0.724, t=-13.454, P<0.05) and the ALP activity(0.140±0.006 >0.095±0.001, t=-7.384, P<0.05) of cells under FSS had significantly increased. There was a synergistic effect of cytoskeleton reorganization inhibition with RNA interference and fluid shear stress on the percentage of S-phase cells (F=240.125,P<0.05), the proliferation viability (F=44.550, P<0.05), and as well as the ALP activity (F=13.798, P<0.05).

Conclusion

Current findings illustrated that cytoskeleton reorganization inhibition with RNA interference promoted the proliferation and differentiation of osteoblasts under fluid shear stress.
