Osteocytes reside
within a heavily mineralized matrix, making them
difficult to study in vivo and to extract for studies in vitro. IDG-SW3 cells are capable of producing a mineralized
collagen matrix and transitioning from osteoblasts to mature osteocytes,
thus offering an alternative to study osteoblast to late osteocyte
differentiation in vitro. The goal for this work
was to develop a 3D degradable hydrogel to support IDG-SW3 differentiation
and deposition of bone extracellular matrix. In 2D, the genes Mmp2 and Mmp13 increased during IDG-SW3
differentiation and were used as targets to create a matrix metalloproteinase
(MMP)-sensitive poly(ethylene glycol) hydrogel containing the peptide
cross-link GCGPLG-LWARCG and RGD to promote cell attachment. IDG-SW3
differentiation in the MMP-sensitive hydrogels improved over nondegradable
hydrogels and standard 2D culture. Alkaline phosphatase activity at
day 14 was higher, Dmp1 and Phex were 8.1-fold and 3.8-fold higher, respectively, and DMP1 protein
expression was more pronounced in the MMP-sensitive hydrogels compared
to nondegradable hydrogels. Cell-encapsulation density (cells/mL of
precursor) influenced the formation of dendrite-like cellular processes
and mineral and collagen deposition, with 80 × 106 cells/mL of precursor performing better than 2 × 106 or 20 × 106 cells/mL of precursor, while connexin
43 was not affected by cell density. The cell density effects were
more pronounced in the MMP-sensitive hydrogels over nondegradable
hydrogels. This study identified that high cell encapsulation density
and hydrogels susceptible to cell-mediated degradation enhanced the
mineralized collagen matrix and osteocyte differentiation. Overall,
a promising hydrogel is presented that supports IDG-SW3 cell maturation
from osteoblasts to osteocytes in 3D.
