ABSTRACT

OBJECTIVES: This study assessed possible osteogenic differentiation caused by electromagnetic fields (EMF) on rat bone-marrow-derived stem cells (rBMSCs) cultured in osteogenic medium (OM) or in human adipose-stem cell-conditioned medium (hADSC-CM). MATERIALS AND METHODS: The rBMSCs were divided into negative and positive control groups, cultured in α-MEM plus 10% FBS or OM respectively. CM and CM + EMF  groups, cultured cells in hADSCs-CM or exposed to EMF (50 Hz, 1 mT) for 30 min/day plus hADSCs-CM, respectively. Cells from the OM + EMF were simultaneously cultured in OM and exposed to EMF. Osteogenesis was investigated through alkaline phosphatase activity, alizarin red staining and real-time PCR. RESULTS: A meaningfully higher level of ALP activity was observed in the OM + EMF group compared to the other groups. There was a considerable increase in Runx2 expression in the CM + EMF group compared to the positive control and CM groups and a significant increase in Runx2 expression in the OM + EMF in comparison with all other groups after 21 days. Runx2 expression increased significantly in the CM, CM + EMF and positive control groups on day 21 compared to the same groups on day 14. From days 14-21, Ocn expression increased in the CM and CM + EMF groups, but both groups showed a significant decrease compared to the positive controls. CM and EMF had no effect on Ocn expression. On day 21, Ocn expression was significantly higher in the OM + EMF group than in the positive control group. CONCLUSION: The synergistic effect of EMF and OM increased the expression of Runx2 and Ocn in rBMSCs.

ABSTRACT

Human adipose tissue-derived mesenchymal stem cells (hADSCs) due to easy extraction, relative abundance, in vitro expansion and differentiation potential, frozen storage capability, and ability to secrete cytokines, compared to other stem cells, are appropriate candidate in regenerative medicine. Extremely low-frequency electromagnetic fields (ELF-EMF) and betaine are two safe factors in bone lesions repair. This study was designed to assess the osteogenic differentiation potential of these factors on hADSCs. The samples were collected from women undergoing liposuction after obtaining written consent. The hADSCs were extracted and treated with osteogenesis differentiation medium (OD) as the positive control, with OD and betaine (BET group), with OD and EMF (EMF group), and with OD and betaine and EMF (BET+EMF group) for 21 d; the negative control consisted of cells without treatment. Betaine 10 mM and EMF with 50-Hz frequency, 1-mT intensity (8 h daily), and in the form of sinus wave were used. Osteogenic differentiation was evaluated by Alizarin Red staining, alkaline phosphatase activity, calcium deposition, and real-time PCR. A significant increase in calcium deposition in the BET+EMF group was observed compared to the other groups. The activity of alkaline phosphatase in the positive control and BET groups was increased significantly compared to EMF and BET + EMF groups and a significant increase of this enzyme activity in the BET + EMF compared to EMF group was observed. The expression of RUNX2 and OCN genes in the EMF-treated groups were significantly reduced compared to the non-EMF-treated groups, and BET+EMF showed a significant increase of RUNX2 gene expression as compared the EMF group. The ELF-EMF leads to a decrease in the osteogenic differentiation and the expression RUNX2 and OCN genes in hADSCs. But osteogenic differentiation and RUNX2 gene expression were increased post-induction by betaine. The synergic effect of betaine and EMF on the osteogenic differentiation and related genes expression of hADSCs was higher than EMF.
