Rationale

The migration of osteoblastic cells to bone formation surface is an essential step for bone development and growth. However, whether the migration capacity of osteoblastic cells is compromised during osteoporosis occurrence and how it contributes to bone formation reduction remain unexplored so far. In this work, we found, as a positive regulator of cell migration, microtubule actin crosslinking factor 1 (MACF1) enhanced osteoblastic cells migration. We also examined whether MACF1 could facilitate osteoblastic cells' migration to bone formation surface to promote bone formation through another cytoskeleton protein, microtubule associated protein 1 (MAP1B).

Methods

Preosteoblast cell line MC3T3-E1 with different MACF1 level was used for in vitro and in vivo cell migration assay; Primary cortical bone derived mesenchymal stem cells (C-MSCs) from bone tissue of MACF1 conditional knock out (cKO) mice was used for in vitro cell migration assay. Cell migration ability in vitro was evaluated by wound healing assay and transwell assay and in vivo by bone marrow cavity injection. Small interfering RNA (siRNA) was used for knocking down Map1b in MC3T3-E1 cell. Lithium chloride (LiCl) and Wortmannin (Wort) were used for inhibiting/activating GSK3β pathway activity. Luciferase report assay was performed for detection of transcriptional activity of TCF7 for Map1b; Chromatin immunoprecipitation (ChIP) was engaged for the binding of TCF7 to Map1b promoter region.

Results

We found MACF1 enhanced MC3T3-E1 cell and C-MSCs migration in vitro through promoting microtubule (MT) stability and dynamics, and increased the injected MC3T3-E1 cell number on bone formation surface, which indicated a promoted bone formation. We further authenticated that MAP1B had a similar function to MACF1 and was regulated by MACF1 in osteogenic cell, and silencing map1b repressed MC3T3-E1 cell migration in vitro. Mechanistically, by adopting MC3T3-E1 cell with different MACF1 level or treated with LiCl/Wort, we discovered that MACF1 decreased the levels of 1265 threonine phosphorylated MAP1B (p[T1265] MAP1B) through inhibiting GSK3β activity. Additionally, total MAP1B mRNA expression level was upregulated by MACF1 through strengthening the binding of TCF7 to the map1b promoter sequence.

Conclusion

Our study uncovered a novel role of MACF1 in bone formation and MAP1B regulation, which suggested that MACF1 could be a potential therapeutic target for osteoporosis."xsd:string
