Abstract
The indirect immobilisation of Jagged-1 (Jagged-1) promoted osteogenic differentiation of human dental pulp cells (hDPs). Furthermore, the analysis of the Reactome pathway of RNA sequencing data indicates the upregulated genes involved with the extracellular matrix (ECM). Hence, our objective was to investigate the effects of Jagged-1 on proteomic profiles of human dental pulp stem cells (hDPSC). hDPSCs were cultured on the surface coated with human IgG Fc fragment (hFc) and the surface coated with rhJagged1/Fc recombinant protein-coated surface. Cells were differentiated to the osteogenic lineage using an osteogenic differentiation medium (OM) for 14 days, and cells cultured in a growth medium were used as a control. The protein component of the cultured cells was extracted into the cytosol, membrane, nucleus, and cytoskeletal compartment. Subsequently, the proteomic analysis was performed using liquid chromatography-tandem mass spectrometry (LC-MS). Metascape gene list analysis reported that Jagged-1 stimulated the expression of the membrane trafficking protein (DOP1B), which can indirectly improve osteogenic differentiation. hDPSCs cultured on Jagged-1 surface under OM condition expressed COL27A1, MXRA5, COL7A1, and MMP16, which played an important role in osteogenic differentiation. Furthermore, common matrisome proteins of all cellular components were related to osteogenesis/osteogenic differentiation. Additionally, the gene ontology categorised by the biological process of cytosol, membrane, and cytoskeleton compartments was associated with the biomineralisation process. The gene ontology of different culture conditions in each cellular component showed several unique gene ontologies. Remarkably, the Jagged-1_OM culture condition showed the biological process related to odontogenesis in the membrane compartment. In conclusion, the Jagged-1 induces osteogenic differentiation could, mainly through the regulation of protein in the membrane compartment.
