| Abstract | Bone marrow-derived mesenchymal stem cells (MSC) are a potential attractive source of cells for stem cell-based tissue regeneration, but the small number and reduced capabilities of MSC proliferation and differentiation due to in vitro replicative senescence and donor-associated pathophysiological factors, including age and estrogen depletion, severely restrict their potential usefulness in clinical applications. Glucocorticoids (GC) are well-known steroid hormones that regulate MSC proliferation and differentiation, but the defined effects and underlying mechanisms of endogenous glucocorticoids on MSC characteristics are not understood. This study investigated the effects of the blockage of endogenous GC using glucocorticoid receptor (GR) small interfering RNA (siRNA) delivered using biodegradable poly(lactic-co-glycolic acid) (PLGA) microparticles on proliferation and differentiation capabilities of human MSC in vitro. The results show that we can prepare PLGA microparticles as a delivery system for GR siRNA and maintain release of siRNA up to 40 days in vitro. Transfection of GR siRNA significantly downregulates GR and upregulates the expression of fibroblast growth factor-2 and Sox-11 of human MSC. MSC that have proliferated with endogenous GC blocked in vitro have greater proliferation rates and exhibit upregulated expression of osteogenic markers (alkaline phosphatase and core binding factor alpha 1) under differentiation stimulation after 1 week. Under adipogenic differentiation, MSC proliferated in vitro with siRNA transfection, resulting in significantly lower adipogenic markers (peroxisome proliferator-activated receptor and lipoprotein lipase) than controls. In conclusion, PLGA particles can serve as a tool for delivery of GR siRNA to effectively block the effects of endogenous GC on MSC, which has the potential to improve the capabilities of human MSC for clinical application by preventing replicative senescence. |

National Digital Library of India (NDLI) is a virtual repository of learning resources which is not just a repository with search/browse facilities but provides a host of services for the learner community. It is sponsored and mentored by Ministry of Education, Government of India, through its National Mission on Education through Information and Communication Technology (NMEICT). Filtered and federated searching is employed to facilitate focused searching so that learners can find the right resource with least effort and in minimum time. NDLI provides user group-specific services such as Examination Preparatory for School and College students and job aspirants. Services for Researchers and general learners are also provided. NDLI is designed to hold content of any language and provides interface support for 10 most widely used Indian languages. It is built to provide support for all academic levels including researchers and life-long learners, all disciplines, all popular forms of access devices and differently-abled learners. It is designed to enable people to learn and prepare from best practices from all over the world and to facilitate researchers to perform inter-linked exploration from multiple sources. It is developed, operated and maintained from Indian Institute of Technology Kharagpur.

NDLI is a conglomeration of freely available or institutionally contributed or donated or publisher managed contents. Almost all these contents are hosted and accessed from respective sources. The responsibility for authenticity, relevance, completeness, accuracy, reliability and suitability of these contents rests with the respective organization and NDLI has no responsibility or liability for these. Every effort is made to keep the NDLI portal up and running smoothly unless there are some unavoidable technical issues.
Ministry of Education, through its National Mission on Education through Information and Communication Technology (NMEICT), has sponsored and funded the National Digital Library of India (NDLI) project.
