{"doi":"10.3390/ijms222112060","title":"Inhibition of Sphingosine-1-Phosphate Receptor 2 by JTE013 Promoted Osteogenesis by Increasing Vesicle Trafficking, Wnt/Ca2+, and BMP/Smad Signaling","abstract":"Sphingosine-1-phosphate receptor 2 (S1PR2) is a G protein-coupled receptor that regulates various immune responses. Herein, we determine the effects of a S1PR2 antagonist (JTE013) or a S1PR2 shRNA on osteogenesis by culturing murine bone marrow stromal cells (BMSCs) in osteogenic media with JTE013, dimethylsulfoxide (DMSO), a S1PR2 shRNA, or a control shRNA. Treatment with JTE013 or the S1PR2 shRNA increased alkaline phosphatase and alizarin red s staining, and enhanced alkaline phosphatase, RUNX2, osteocalcin, and osterix mRNA levels in BMSCs compared with the controls. Protein analysis revealed that a high dose of JTE013 (4 or 8 μM) increased vesicle trafficking-associated proteins (F-actin, clathrin, Early Endosome Antigen 1 (EEA1), and syntaxin 6) and Wnt/Ca2+ signaling. On the other hand, a low dose of JTE013 (1 to 2 μM) increased BMP/Smad signaling. In contrast, the S1PR2 shRNA reduced vesicle trafficking-associated proteins and attenuated Wnts and BMP/Smad signaling, but enhanced p-CaMKII compared with the control, suggesting that the S1PR2 shRNA influenced osteogenesis via different signaling pathways. Moreover, inhibiting protein trafficking by brefeldin A in BMSCs suppressed Wnts and BMPRs expressions. These data supported that enhanced osteogenesis in JTE013-treated BMSCs is associated with increased vesicle trafficking, which promotes the synthesis and transport of osteogenic protein and matrix vesicles and enhances matrix mineralization.","journal":"International Journal of Molecular Sciences","year":2021,"id":193421,"datarank":0.0,"base_score":0.0,"endowment":0.0,"self_citation_contribution":0.0,"citation_network_contribution":0.0,"self_endowment_contribution":0.0,"citer_contribution":0.0,"corpus_percentile":null,"corpus_rank":null,"citation_count":11,"citer_count":0,"citers_with_citation_signal":0,"citers_with_endowment":0,"datacite_reuse_total":0,"is_dataset":false,"is_dataset_confidence":0.955,"is_data_producer":false,"deposit_databanks":null,"is_oa":true,"file_count":0,"downloads":0,"has_version_chain":false,"published_date":"2021-01-01","fair_score":null,"fair_percentile":null,"algorithm_id":"datarank_citation_only_1hop_v6","ranking_scope":"data_only","authors":[{"id":761821,"name":"Subramanya Pandruvada","orcid":"0000-0001-9568-7666","position":1,"is_corresponding":false},{"id":500652,"name":"Hong Yu","orcid":"0000-0002-0930-6810","position":2,"is_corresponding":false},{"id":761820,"name":"Simon Lin","orcid":"0000-0001-9870-2198","position":0,"is_corresponding":true}],"reference_count":68,"raw_metadata":null,"created_at":"2026-07-18T23:49:51.300073Z","pmid":"34769490","pmcid":null,"fwci":null,"citation_percentile":null,"influential_citations":0,"oa_status":null,"license":null,"views":0,"total_file_size_bytes":0,"version_count":0,"fair_f":null,"fair_a":null,"fair_i":null,"fair_r":null,"fair_zscore":null,"fair_rationale":null,"fair_model":null,"fair_agent_version":null,"fair_fulltext_source":null,"fair_has_llm":null,"fair_computed_at":null,"clinical_trials":[],"software_tools":[],"db_accessions":[],"linked_datasets":[],"topics":[]}
