Abstract

Bone Marrow Mesenchymal Stem Cells (BMSCs) are one of the primary cells found in the bone marrow, and they can differentiate into osteoblasts, chondrocytes, adipocytes and even myoblasts, and are, therefore, considered pluripotent cells. Because of their multipotential differentiation, selfrenewal capability, immunomodulation and other potential activities, BMSCs have become an important source of seed cells for gene therapy, tissue engineering, cell replacement therapy and regenerative medicine. Long non-coding RNA (lncRNA) is an RNA molecule greater than 200 nucleotides in length that is expressed in a variety of species, including animals, plants, yeast, prokaryotes, and viruses, but lacks an apparent open reading frame, and does not have the function of translation into proteins. Many studies have shown that lncRNAs play an important role in the osteogenic differentiation of BMSCs. Here, we describe the role of lncRNAs in the osteogenic differentiation of BMSCs, in order to provide a new theoretical and experimental basis for bone tissue engineering and clinical treatment.

Keywords: Bone marrow mesenchymal stem cells (BMSCs), long noncoding RNAs (lncRNAs), osteogenic differentiation, bone defects, bone regeneration, bone tissue engineering, treatment.
