Human Stem/Progenitor Cells from Bone Marrow Enhance Glial Differentiation of Rat Neural Stem Cells: A Role for Transforming Growth Factor β and Notch Signaling

Abstract: Multipotent stem=progenitor cells from bone marrow stroma (mesenchymal stromal cells or MSCs) were previously shown to enhance proliferation and differentiation of neural stem cells (NSCs) in vivo, but the molecular basis of the effect was not defined. Here coculturing human MSCs (hMSCs) with rat NSCs (rNSCs) was found to stimulate astrocyte and oligodendrocyte differentiation of the rNSCs. To survey the signaling pathways involved, RNA from the cocultures was analyzed by species-specific microarrays. In the h… Show more

“…Moreover, PDGF, PGF and TGF β are known to increase survival and proliferation of oligodendrocytes63. BDNF also increases oligodendrocyte proliferation and BMP 1 signaling mediates astrocyte differentiation of oligodendrocyte progenitor cells64. SPARC has been shown to modulate several growth factor signaling cascades (i.e., VEGF (vascular endothelial growth factor), PDGF (platelet-derived growth factor), FGF2 (fibroblast growth factor-2), and TGF (transforming growth factor beta)) and can regulate integrin-mediated adhesion6566.…”

“…The ability of TGF-␤1 to mediate transdifferentiation of cells into another lineage has been well described with the use of numerous cell systems. [38][39][40][41] Indeed, TGF-␤ family members play important roles in epithelial-mesenchymal transformation during normal development and in pathologic conditions and can redirect differentiation along mesenchymal lineages (for adipocytes, osteoblasts, or chondrocytes) in response to TGF-␤ or bone morphogenetic protein signals. TGF-␤1, in particular, has been characterized as being able to regulate expression of endothelial markers; exogenous administration of TGF-␤1 increased endothelialspecific expression in mouse embryoid bodies and inhibited expression of endodermal markers.…”

“…For instance, coculturing human MSCs (hMSCs) with rat neural stem cells (rNSCs) was found to stimulate astrocyte and oligodendrocyte differentiation of the rNSCs, driven by increased secretion of soluble factors such as TGF-β1 by the hMSCs and probably through the Notch pathway [66] . In addition, when using a mouse midbrain embryonic day (E) 12 neurospheres culture as an experimental model, TGF-β can cooperate with persephin for dopaminergic phenotype induction through receptor-mediated differentiation signaling, involving p38 kinase and PI3K/AKT pathways [67] .…”
