The brain-bone regulatory system regulates skeletal homeostasis via bioactive neuropeptides, yet the underlying mechanism remains elusive. Here, we report the role of the neuropeptide VF (NPVF, VPNLPQRF-NH₂) in enhancing both angiogenesis and osteogenesis in a rat skeletal system and the potential pathways involved. An in vitro study revealed that NPVF not only promotes migration and angiogenesis of human umbilical vein endothelial cells (HUVECs) by activating NPFFR1, which leads to upregulation of miR-181c-3p and downregulation of Argonaute1 (AGO1), but also mediates osteogenic differentiation of bone mesenchymal stem cells (BMSCs) via the Wnt/β-catenin signaling pathway. To improve the stability and bioavailability and thus efficacy of NPVF as a promoter of in vivo bone regeneration, we genetically engineered amyloid-NPVF-fusion proteins and utilized them as self-assembling nanofiber coatings to treat bone defects in a rat calvarial defect model. We found that a porous hydroxyapatite scaffold loaded with the NPVF peptide-fused amyloid coating substantially enhanced angiogenesis and site-specific fresh bone in-growth when implanted in calvarial defects. Taken together, our work uncovered a previously undefined crosstalk between the brain and bone by unveiling the role of NPVF in bone tissue and demonstrated a viable method for promoting bone tissue repairs based upon self-assembling NPVF-containing protein coatings.
