PG - 836-45 LID - 10.1089/scd.2014.0272 [doi] AB - Tumor necrosis factor-alpha (TNF-alpha) has multiple effects on proliferation and differentiation of human mesenchymal stem cells. Transforming growth factor-activated kinase-1 (TAK1) mediates the activation of nuclear factor-kappa B (NF-kappaB), c-Jun N-terminal kinase (JNK), and p38 pathways in response to TNF-alpha. However, the role of TAK1 in TNF-alpha-induced effects in human adipose-derived stem cells (hADSCs) and its signaling pathway has not been clearly defined. Therefore, this study was designated to clarify the role of TAK1 in TNF-alpha-induced actions on proliferation and differentiation of hADSCs and its downstream signaling pathway. Inhibiting TAK1 expression inhibited the TNF-alpha-induced increase in osteogenic differentiation and basal osteogenic differentiation without affecting the TNF-alpha-induced effect on proliferation and adipogenic differentiation of hADSCs. A western blot analysis showed that TNF-alpha treatment induced degradation of IkappaB, but that TAK1 small interfering RNA (siRNA) transfection did not protect against TNF-alpha-induced IkappaB degradation. The transfection of TAK1 siRNA also did not affect TNF-alpha-induced IkappaB phosphorylation or ERK1/2 phosphorylation. However, downregulating TAK1 inhibited this TNF-alpha-induced S536 phosphorylation of the p65 subunit. TNF-alpha treatment induced p38 phosphorylation, which was inhibited by the transfection of TAK1 siRNA. Adding p38 inhibitor inhibited TNF-alpha-induced p65 phosphorylation, NF-kappaB promoter activity, and TNF-alpha-induced increase in hADSC osteogenic differentiation. These data indicate that TAK1 is involved in the TNF-alpha-induced activation of p38 kinase, which subsequently phosphorylates the NF-kappaB p65 subunit, and increases the transactivation potential of p65 and osteogenic differentiation in hADSCs.
