Abstract:
Human mesenchymal stem cells (hMSCs) are fibroblastoid multipotent adult stem cells with capacities of differentiation into osteoblasts and chondrocytes and show great potential in new bone formation and bone repair-related clinical settings, such as osteoporosis. Long noncoding RNAs (lncRNAs) have been demonstrated to play important roles in various biological processes. Here, we report an antisense lncRNA SEMA3B-AS1 regulating hMSCs osteogenesis. SEMA3B-AS1 is proximal to a member of the semaphorin family Sema3b. Overexpression of SEMA3B-AS1 using the lentivirus system markedly inhibits the proliferation of hMSCs and meanwhile reduces osteogenic differentiation. Using a comprehensive proteomic technique named isobaric tag for relative and absolute quantitation, we found that SEMA3B-AS1 significantly alters the process of osteogenesis through downregulating the expression of proteins involved in actin cytoskeleton, focal adhesion, and extracellular matrix-receptor interaction, while increasing the expression of proteins in the spliceosome. Collectively, we find that SEMA3B-AS1 is a target for controlling osteogenesis of hMSCs.
