    Abstract:
    OBJECTIVES: Mouse incisor mesenchymal stem cells (MSCs) have self-renewal ability and osteo/odontogenic differentiation potential. However, the mechanism controlling the continuous self-renewal and osteo/odontogenic differentiation of mouse incisor MSCs remains unclear. Special AT-rich sequence-binding protein 2 (SATB2) positively regulates craniofacial patterning, bone development and regeneration, whereas SATB2 deletion or mutation leads to craniomaxillofacial dysplasia and delayed tooth and root development, similar to bone morphogenetic protein (BMP) loss-of-function phenotypes. However, the detailed mechanism underlying the SATB2 role in odontogenic MSCs is poorly understood. The aim of this study was to investigate whether SATB2 can regulate self-renewal and osteo/odontogenic differentiation of odontogenic MSCs. MATERIALS AND METHODS: Satb2 expression was detected in the rapidly renewing mouse incisor mesenchyme by immunofluorescence staining, quantitative RT-PCR and Western blot analysis. Ad-Satb2 and Ad-siSatb2 were constructed to evaluate the effect of Satb2 on odontogenic MSCs self-renewal and osteo/odontogenic differentiation properties and the potential role of Satb2 with the osteogenic factor bone morphogenetic protein 9 (Bmp9) in vitro and in vivo. RESULTS: Satb2 was found to be expressed in mesenchymal cells and pre-odontoblasts/odontoblasts. We further discovered that Satb2 effectively enhances mouse incisor MSCs self-renewal. Satb2 acted synergistically with the potent osteogenic factor Bmp9 in inducing osteo/odontogenic differentiation of mouse incisor MSCs in vitro and in vivo. CONCLUSIONS: Satb2 promotes self-renewal and osteo/odontogenic differentiation of mouse incisor MSCs. Thus, Satb2 can cooperate with Bmp9 as a new efficacious bio-factor for osteogenic regeneration and tooth engineering.
