Extracellular vesicles derived from T-cell acute lymphoblastic leukemia inhibit osteogenic differentiation of bone marrow mesenchymal stem cells via miR-34a-5p.

Reduced bone formation in patients with T-cell acute lymphoblastic leukemia (T-ALL) may be related to the interaction between tumour cells and bone marrow stromal cells (BMSCs). The miRNAs in extracellular vesicles derived from leukemia cells play an essential role in regulating the function of BMSCs; however, the regulatory mechanisms remain unclear. The expression of miR-34a-5p in T-ALL patients and cells was measured by quantitative real-time PCR. BMSCs were co-cultured with extracellular vesicles isolated from T-ALL cells in mineralization medium. The osteogenic differentiation of BMSCs was evaluated by Alizarin Red S staining, alkaline phosphatase (ALP) staining, and detection of osteogenic differentiation markers. A dual-luciferase reporter assay was performed to confirm the targeting relationship between miR-34a-5p and Wnt family member 1 (WNT1). MiR-34a-5p expression was upregulated in T-ALL patients and Jurkat cells. After BMSCs were co-cultured with extracellular vesicles derived from T-ALL cells, osteogenic differentiation of BMSCs was inhibited, and bone mineralization and ALP activity were decreased compared to those of control cells. MiR-34a-5p knockdown in T-ALL cells restored osteogenic differentiation of BMSCs co-cultured with extracellular vesicles. In addition, miR-34a-5p targets and negatively regulates WNT1 expression. In conclusion, our results demonstrated that knockdown of miR-34a-5p in extracellular vesicles derived from T-ALL cells promoted osteogenic differentiation of BMSCs by regulating WNT1.
