MSCs were seeded in a 24-well plate with a density of 30%–40%, and stimulated with adenovirus respectively. For ALP staining, cells were fixed with 4% paraformaldehyde for 30 min, then, washed twice with PBS and stained with ALP Color Development Kit (Beyotime, China). Thirty minutes later, cells were observed under a bright field microscopy. As for quantitative analysis of ALP activity, cells in each treatment group were lysed by lysis buffer, then 5 μL lysis buffer, 5 μL substrate (BD Clontech), and 15 μL Lupo Buffer were mixed and incubated in light-proof condition for 20 min followed with measuring chemiluminescence signals. ALP activity was normalized by total protein concentrations in each treatment group. Each assay condition was performed in triplicate, and the results were repeated in at least 3 independent experiments.

Cells were passaged to 12-well plates and cultured with osteogenic induction medium when cells reached at 70% confluence. Osteogenic induction medium cultured for 5 days, cells were washed by PBS 3 times, and were fixed in 4% paraformaldehyde for 20–30 min at RT. Washed by PBS 3 times, cells were stained by the ALP Color Development Kit (Beyotime). To measure ALP quantified, ALP activity was determined by ALP Activity Assay (Beyotime). Stain was lysed with lysis buffer consisted of 20 mM Tris–HCl (pH 7.5), 1% Triton X-100 and 150 mM NaCl and the conversion color of p-nitrophenyl phosphate was measured at 405/650 nm by a microplate reader (ELX808; BioTek).

Osteogenic Differentiation of BMSCs with Leonurine

Check if the same lab product or an alternative is used in the 5 most similar protocols
BMSCs at a density of 2 × 104 cells/well were seeded in 24-well plates. After 24 h, the baseline medium was replaced with osteogenic induction medium containing various concentrations of leonurine (0, 2, 5, and 10 μM). The cells were cultured in osteogenic induction medium for either 6 days (ALP staining) or 14 days (Alizarin red staining).
ALP staining was conducted to ascertain the effect of leonurine on BMSC differentiation. In brief, BMSCs were harvested after 6 days of culture and fixed with 4% paraformaldehyde for 10 min. An ALP color development kit (Beyotime, Shanghai, China) was used in the study according to the manufacturer’s protocols. Briefly, the cells were stained for 15 min and washed three times with PBS. The stained cells were subsequently observed under phase-contrast microscopy, with representative images captured.
Alizarin red staining was further performed to determine the degree of calcium deposition in BMSCs between the leonurine treatment groups at various concentrations. Briefly, BMSCs were harvested after 14 days of culture in osteogenic medium as outlined above. After fixation in 4% paraformaldehyde for 10 min, the cells were stained with Alizarin red staining kits (Beyotime, Shanghai) for 60 min and washed three times with ddH2O.
The stained cells were subsequently observed under phase-contrast microscopy, with representative images captured.

After 7 days of osteogenic induction, ALP staining of hPDLSCs-CA and hUCMSC-CA was performed by an ALP color development kit (Beyotime, Shanghai, China) and ALP activity was quantified by an ALP activity detection kit (Jiancheng Bioengineering, Nanjing, China). Quantitative real-time PCR (RT-qPCR) was performed to examine the mRNA expression of ALP, Runx2 and OCN as well as extracellular matrix-related gene, fibronectin, integrin-β and collagen type I. In addition, BSP and OPN, which are strongly expressed in the native periodontium in bone and cementum, especially acellular cementum, were also detected by the RT-qPCR. Briefly, total cellular RNA was isolated from hPDLSCs-CA and hUCMSCs-CA using Trizol Reagent (Invitrogen) according to the manufacturer's standard instructions. Reverse transcription of mRNA and PCR reaction were performed as described previously 40 (link). Primer sequences used in this experiment are listed in Table 1. Also, expression of BSP, OPN, fibronectin, collagen type I, OCN and osterix were detected by immunofluorescence in both cell-aggregates during the induction period. The experimental process and analysis method were as previously described 32 (link). The experiment was repeated at least three times.

About PubCompare

Our mission is to provide scientists with the largest repository of trustworthy protocols and intelligent analytical tools, thereby offering them extensive information to design robust protocols aimed at minimizing the risk of failures.

We believe that the most crucial aspect is to grant scientists access to a wide range of reliable sources and new useful tools that surpass human capabilities.

However, we trust in allowing scientists to determine how to construct their own protocols based on this information, as they are the experts in their field.
