The aging of mesenchymal stem cells (MSCs) is closely related to aging-related diseases such as osteoporosis. Research on how to improve MSC aging to treat age-related bone loss is currently a focus. This study found that PPP3R1 accelerates the senescence of MSCs, leading to reduced osteogenic differentiation and enhanced adipogenic differentiation in vitro. Mechanistically, PPP3R1 induces changes in membrane potential to promote cellular senescence, activates downstream NFAT/ATF3/p53 signaling. These findings may provide new therapeutic approaches for age-related bone loss.
Aging of mesenchymal stem cells(MSCs) has been widely reported to be strongly associated with aging-related diseases, including osteoporosis (OP). In particular, the beneficial functions of mesenchymal stem cells decline with age, limiting their therapeutic efficacy in age-related bone loss diseases. Therefore, how to improve mesenchymal stem cell aging to treat age-related bone loss is the current research focus. However, the underlying mechanism remains unclear. In this study, protein phosphatase 3, regulatory subunit B, alpha isoform, calcineurin B, type I (PPP3R1) was found to accelerate the senescence of mesenchymal stem cells, resulting in reduced osteogenic differentiation and enhanced adipogenic differentiation in vitro. Mechanistically, PPP3R1 induces changes in membrane potential to promote cellular senescence by polarizing to depolarizing, increasing Ca2+ influx and activating downstream NFAT/ATF3/p53 signaling. In conclusion, the results identify a novel pathway of mesenchymal stem cell aging that may lead to novel therapeutic approaches for age-related bone loss.
