Effect of NF-кB Dependent Proinflammation on Osteogenic Differentiation of the Mesenchymal Stem Cells in Type 2 Diabetes

This study determines whether NF-кB dependent proinflammatory state found in type 2 diabetes yield to a higher RAGE activation in the mesenchymal stem cell, as well as the effects of the proinflammation on osteoblast differentiation impairment and cellular apoptosis in type 2 diabetic patients. This study will compare non-diabetic control subjects and type 2 diabetic patients with metformin monotherapy failure in the aspect of 1) serum markers for NF-кB dependent proinflammatory state and its intracellular signals, 2) osteogenic differentiation and apoptosis of the mesenchymal stem cells, and 3) serum AGE, RAGE and cellular RAGE activation.

About this study

This study aims to explore whether proinflammation in type 2 diabetes is an mechanism underlined higher RAGE activation and osteoblast differentiation defect demonstrated in the MSC of type 2 diabetes, as well as the effects of the proinflammation on cellular differentiation and apoptosis of the MSC. Type 2 diabetes was known to be in proinflammatory state due to NF-кB-dependent cytokine secretion (for example, TNF-α, IL1 and IL6), which in turn contribute to NF-кB upregulation. Because RAGE expression is partly regulated by NF-кB signal, the NF-кB upregulation in proinflammatory state observed in type 2 diabetes may entail RAGE overactivation in this population. Therefore, the proinflammatory state and its correlation to cellular NF-кB-dependent RAGE activation is noteworthy to be determined in the MSC of type 2 diabetes. Furthermore, the effect of proinflammation on differentiation potential and apoptosis of the MSC in type 2 diabetes remains to be elucidated.

Treatment and study plan

Primary outcomes

  1. Correlation between NF-кB dependent-proinflammation markers and osteoblast-specific gene expression in the MSC to measure the effects of NF-кB dependent-proinflammation on differentiation potential toward osteoblast in type 2 diabetes.

    Time frame: 2-4 weeks

Secondary outcomes

  1. Correlation between NF-кB dependent-proinflammation markers and apoptotic marker expression in the MSC to measure effects of NF-кB dependent-proinflammation on cellular apoptosis in type 2 diabetes.

    Time frame: 2-4 weeks

  2. Correlation between NF-кB dependent-proinflammation markers and the expression of RAGE and its downstream signals in the MSC to measure effects of NF-кB dependent-proinflammation on cellular RAGE activation in type 2 diabetes.

    Time frame: 2-4 weeks
