| description | Bone marrow stimulation treatment by bone marrow stromal cells (BMSCs) released from the bone medullary cavity and differentiated into cartilage via microfracture surgery is a frequently employed technique for treating articular cartilage injuries, yet the treatment presents a main drawback of poor cartilage regeneration in the elderly. Prior research indicated that aging could decrease the stemness capacity of BMSCs, thus we made a hypothesis that increasing old BMSCs (OBMSCs) stemness might improve the results of microfracture in the elderly. First, we investigated the correlation between microfracture outcomes and BMSCs stemness using clinical data and animal experiments. The outcomes of microfracture surgery in the elderly were significantly decreased as compared with the young counterparts while the stemness capacity of OBMSCs was also significantly decreased, and they were positively correlated. To investigate the role of BMSCs stemness in microfracture, we developed microfracture-mimic cartilage regeneration organoid models. In vitro experiments identified SPI1 as a potential stemness target gene, which could enhance the stemness and chondrogenesis of OBMSCs. The implantation of cartilage regeneration organoids made by SPI1-overexpressed OBMSCs could notably enhance cartilage regeneration in the old rats as compared with the microfracture treatment alone. Furthermore, molecular docking suggested a possible interaction between SPI1 and 5-Aza-2′-deoxycytidine (5Aza). The application of 5Aza could significantly improve the result of microfracture by upregulating SPI1. In summary, we identified SPI1 as a novel stemness target of OBMSCs, which was beneficial for the improvement of microfracture-stimulated cartilage regeneration in the elderly. |
