Abstract
Description
Technical Field
[0001] The present invention belongs to the field of biomedical technology, and specifically designs a secretome derived from dental pulp stem cells and a light-cured hydrogel and their application in osteogenic differentiation. Background Art
[0002] Bone defects are a common and serious clinical problem, caused by a variety of factors such as trauma, infection, or tumor resection. Currently, the insufficient osteogenic differentiation capacity of bone marrow mesenchymal stem cells (BMSCs) is a key bottleneck restricting the efficacy of bone regeneration. Existing bone defect repair strategies mainly include the following three types of technologies: growth factor delivery systems (such as BMP-2 loaded hydrogels): although they can stimulate osteogenesis in the short term, they have disadvantages such as sudden factor release (>60% released within 24 hours), dose-dependent side effects (heterotopic ossification), and high costs; direct stem cell transplantation: BMSCs have a low survival rate after transplantation (<30%), and the ischemic microenvironment inhibits their paracrine function; inert bone scaffold materials (such as hydroxyapatite composites): they only provide mechanical support and lack the ability to regulate dynamic biological signals.
[0003] Hydrogels have attracted significant attention in bone tissue engineering due to their three-dimensional network structure, biocompatibility, and customizability. Methacryl-modified gelatin (GelMA) hydrogels, as modified versions of natural gelatin, combine photocrosslinking properties (rapid prototyping and mechanical tunability) with cell adhesion sites, making them ideal bone repair vehicles. However, GelMA hydrogels alone lack sufficient bioactivity to effectively activate the osteogenic differentiation potential of BMSCs. Summary of the Invention
[0004] The present invention provides a secretome derived from dental pulp stem cells and a light-cured hydrogel and their application in osteogenic differentiation. The dental pulp stem cell secretome contains a large number of extracellular vesicles (EVs) and extracellular matrix (ECM), which can promote the osteogenic differentiation ability of BMSCs at bone defect sites and promote the osteogenic potential of BMSCs.
[0005] The present invention provides a method for extracting a secretome derived from dental pulp stem cells, comprising the following steps: culturing dental pulp stem cells to a confluence of 80-90%, transferring the cells to a culture medium free of fetal bovine serum for starvation culture for a period of time, and centrifuging at 3000-4500g to collect a supernatant, wherein the supernatant contains a secretome derived from dental pulp stem cells.
[0006] In a preferred embodiment of the present invention, the dental pulp stem cells include primary dental pulp stem cells extracted from impacted third molars of healthy adults.
[0007] In a preferred embodiment of the present invention, the dental pulp stem cells are cultured in a-MEM containing fetal bovine serum and double antibody and passaged to the 3rd to 5th passage.
[0008] In a preferred embodiment of the present invention, the temperature of the starvation culture is 37° C. and the time is 24 to 48 hours.
[0009] In a preferred embodiment of the present invention, the centrifugation time is 5 to 8 minutes.
[0010] In a preferred embodiment of the present invention, after the centrifugation, the supernatant is concentrated, and the concentration method includes centrifugation, and the centrifugation method includes centrifugation at 5000g for 30 to 60 minutes.
[0011] The present invention also provides a secretome derived from dental pulp stem cells extracted using the above extraction method.
[0012] The present invention also provides a photocurable hydrogel comprising the secretome derived from the dental pulp stem cells.
[0013] The present invention also provides a method for preparing the above-mentioned photocurable hydrogel, comprising the following steps: mixing the dry powder of the secretome derived from the above-mentioned dental pulp stem cells with GelMA and initiator TAP, and stirring to obtain the photocurable hydrogel.
[0014] The present invention also provides the use of the above-mentioned photocurable hydrogel in preparing osteogenic differentiation products.
[0015] Beneficial effects: The present invention provides a method for extracting the secretome derived from dental pulp stem cells. The dental pulp stem cell-derived secretome (DPS) can be obtained from dental pulp stem cells through simple operations. The DPS is rich in pro-proliferation and osteogenesis active components, such as extracellular vesicles (EVs), exosomes, soluble proteins and extracellular matrix (ECM), etc., which can regulate cell behavior through the synergistic action of multiple components and avoid the risks of live cell therapy.
[0016] The present invention also provides a photocurable hydrogel (GelDPS) containing the DPS. By combining DPS with GelMA hydrogel, a dual-functional system of "sustained-release carrier + active signal" can be constructed, which solves the problem of rapid degradation of DPS in vivo and lack of spatial localization; at the same time, DPS contains a large number of EVs and ECM, which can provide osteogenic active factors, produce a highly efficient synergistic induction effect, and thus improve the osteogenic differentiation efficiency of BMSCs. The photocuring properties of the GelDPS described in the present invention support instant shaping during surgery and adapt to the needs of repairing irregular bone defects. It is expected to be applied to bone tissue injury sites under clinical conditions, providing potential biologically available for promoting bone tissue injury. By integrating the advantages of multi-target regulation of the stem cell secretome with the precise delivery characteristics of photocurable hydrogels, the present invention provides an innovative strategy for solving the problem of low BMSCs differentiation efficiency in bone defect repair.

[0018] The present invention provides a method for extracting a secretome derived from dental pulp stem cells, comprising the following steps: culturing dental pulp stem cells to a confluence of 80-90%, transferring the cells to a culture medium free of fetal bovine serum for starvation culture for a period of time, and centrifuging at 3000-4500g to collect a supernatant, wherein the supernatant contains a secretome derived from dental pulp stem cells.
[0019] The present invention uses dental pulp stem cells as a host for extraction, and DPS is extracted from the dental pulp stem cells, wherein the dental pulp stem cells of the present invention include primary dental pulp stem cells extracted from impacted third molars of healthy adults. In one embodiment, impacted third molars of healthy adults aged 18 to 25 are selected, and primary dental pulp stem cells are extracted by enzymatic digestion.
[0020] The dental pulp stem cells are cultured and passaged to passages 3 to 5 in α-MEM containing fetal bovine serum (FBS) and a double-streptomycin (PS) solution, wherein the FBS is added at a rate of 10% (v / v) and the PS solution is penicillin and streptomycin, and the PS solution is added at a rate of 1% (v / v). The dental pulp stem cells are passaged in the culture medium and, when the cells reach 80% to 90% confluency, are washed three times with PBS to remove residual FBS and cell debris.
[0021] The cells are then inoculated into FBS-free α-MEM for starvation culture at 37°C for 24-48 hours. In the present invention, the FBS-free α-MEM culture medium is collected after the starvation culture and centrifuged at 3000-4500g for 5-8 minutes to remove residual cells and debris. The supernatant is then centrifuged to achieve concentration, wherein the centrifugation includes passing the supernatant through an Amicon Ultra-15 centrifugal filter device (Millipore, USA) and concentrating it by centrifugation at 5000g for 30 minutes at 4°C. The resulting concentrated supernatant is referred to as the dental pulp stem cell-derived secretome (DPS).
[0022] The present invention also provides a secretome derived from dental pulp stem cells extracted using the above extraction method.
[0023] The DPS of the present invention contains a large number of EVs and ECM, which can provide osteogenic active factors and improve the osteogenic differentiation efficiency of BMSCs. After obtaining the DPS, the present invention can also dry the DPS to obtain a powder. For example, in one embodiment, the obtained DPS is freeze-dried using a vacuum freeze dryer. The DPS extraction method of the present invention is simple, and only requires concentrating and freeze-drying the cell culture supernatant, which is low in cost. The secretome freeze-dried powder obtained by the present invention can be stored at -80°C for 12 months without loss of activity, avoiding the storage and transportation problems of living cell preparations.
[0024] The present invention also provides a photocurable hydrogel comprising the secretome derived from the dental pulp stem cells.
[0025] The photocuring properties of GelDPS described in the present invention support instant shaping during surgery and adapt to the needs of repairing irregular bone defects. It is expected to be applied to bone tissue damage sites under clinical conditions and provide a potentially available biological gel preparation for promoting bone tissue damage.
[0026] The present invention also provides a method for preparing the above-mentioned photocurable hydrogel, comprising the following steps: mixing the dry powder of the secretome derived from the above-mentioned dental pulp stem cells with GelMA and initiator TAP, and stirring to obtain the photocurable hydrogel.
[0027] In the present invention, freeze-dried DPS powder is added to a methacrylated gel solution (containing GelMA and initiator TAP) in a sterile operating chamber. The solution is then stirred in a magnetic stirrer at less than 500 rpm at room temperature for 30 minutes to thoroughly mix the mixture. This yields a dental pulp stem cell secretory group photocurable hydrogel (GelDPS). This hydrogel is liquid at room temperature and exhibits excellent fluidity, making it easy to perform common cell culture operations such as plating. In the present invention, curing and shaping the fluid liquid requires only 10-30 seconds of irradiation using a 405 nm ultraviolet (UV) light source to achieve gelation. The mass ratio of DPS powder to methacrylated gel is 100 μg DPS powder / mL GelMA solution.
[0028] The present invention also provides the use of the above-mentioned photocurable hydrogel in preparing osteogenic differentiation products.
[0029] The GelDPS of the present invention can significantly promote BMSCs colony formation, that is, promote BMSCs cell proliferation; GelDPS significantly promotes BMSCs cell migration and chemotaxis, and GelDPS promotes the early osteogenic differentiation and mineralization ability of BMSCs cells, and the GelDPS can promote the in vivo osteogenic ability of BMSCs.
[0030] To further illustrate the present invention, the dental pulp stem cell-derived secretome and photocurable hydrogel provided by the present invention and their applications in osteogenic differentiation are described in detail below in conjunction with the examples, but they should not be construed as limiting the scope of protection of the present invention.
[0031] Example 1 according to Figure 1 The following process is used to prepare the dental pulp stem cell secretome photocurable hydrogel: Dental pulp stem cell-derived secretome (DPSCs secretome, DPS) extraction method: Impacted third molars from healthy adults aged 18 to 25 years were selected. Primary dental pulp stem cells were extracted using an enzymatic digestion method and cultured in α-MEM supplemented with 10% fetal bovine serum (FBS) and 1% penicillin-streptomycin (PS) for passages 3 to 5. When cells reached 80% to 90% confluence in a 10 cm dish, they were washed three times with PBS to remove residual FBS and cell debris. The cells were then placed in 10 ml of α-MEM without FBS and incubated at 37°C for 24 hours. After incubation, the conditioned medium was collected and centrifuged at 3000–4500 g for 5–8 minutes to remove residual cells and debris. The supernatant was concentrated by centrifugation at 5000 g for 30 minutes at 4°C using an Amicon Ultra-15 centrifugal filter device (Millipore, USA). The resulting concentrated supernatant is referred to as the dental pulp stem cell-derived secretome (DPS). The obtained DPS was freeze-dried using a vacuum freeze dryer and then used for later use.
