IKKβ in postnatal perichondrium remotely controls endochondral ossification of the growth plate through downregulation of MCP-5.

ABSTRACT: IκB kinase β (IKKβ) is a catalytic subunit of the IKK complex, which activates nuclear factor-κB (NF-κB). Although its role in osteoclastogenesis is well established, the role of IKKβ in bone formation is poorly understood. Here, we report that conditional knockout of Ikkβ in limb bud mesenchymal cells results in the upregulation of monocyte chemoattractant protein-5 (MCP-5) in the perichondrium, which in turn inhibits the growth of longitudinal bone by compromising chondrocyte hypertrophy and increasing the apoptosis of chondrocytes within the growth plate. Contrary to expectations, IKKβ in cells of chondrocyte or osteoblast lineage was dispensable for bone growth. On the other hand, ex vivo experiments confirmed the role of MCP-5 in the growth of longitudinal bone. Furthermore, an in vitro study demonstrated that the action of IKKβ on MCP-5 is cell autonomous. Collectively, our results provide evidence for a previously unrecognized role of IKKβ in the regulation of the growth plate that is mediated through stimulation-independent downregulation of MCP-5 in the perichondrium.

Project description:A variety of cell cultures models and in vivo approaches have been used to study gene expression during chondrocyte differentiation. The extent to which the in vitro models reflect bona fide gene regulation in the growth plate has not been quantified. In addition, studies that evaluate global gene expression changes among different growth plate zones are limited. To address these issues, we completed a microarray screen of three growth plate zones derived from manually segmented embryonic mouse tibiae. Classification of genes differentially expressed between each respective growth plate zone, functional categorization as well as characterization of gene expression patterns, cytogenetic loci, signaling pathways and functional motifs confirmed documented data and pointed to novel aspects of chondrocyte differentiation. Parallel comparisons of the microdissected tibiae data set to our previously completed micromass culture screen further corroborated the suitability of micromass cultures for modeling gene expression in chondrocyte development. The micromass culture system demonstrated striking similarities to the in vivo microdissected tibiae screen; however, the micromass system was unable to accurately distinguish gene expression differences in the hypertrophic and mineralized zones of the growth plate. These studies will allow us to better understand zone-specific gene expression patterns in the growth plate. Ultimately, this work will help define both the genomic context in which genes are expressed in the long bones and the extent to which the micromass culture system is able to recapitulate chondrocyte development in endochondral ossification. Experiment Overall Design: Tibiae from 15.5 day old mouse embryos were isolated and partitioned into three distinct zones. Total RNA was isolated from each segment and the individual segments pooled within a litter. Experiment Overall Design: Samples were hybridized to Affymetrix MOE 430 2.0 mouse chips for analysis. Four independent trials were executed for each zone.

Project description:The cranial base is a component of the neurocranium and has a central role in the structural integration of the face, brain and vertebral column. Consequently, alteration in the shape of the human cranial base has been intimately linked with primate evolution and defective development is associated with numerous human facial abnormalities. Here we describe a novel recessive mutant mouse strain that presented with a domed head and fully penetrant cleft secondary palate coupled with defects in the formation of the underlying cranial base. Mapping and non-complementation studies revealed a specific mutation in Memo1 - a gene originally associated with cell migration. Expression analysis of Memo1 identified robust expression in the perichondrium and periosteum of the developing cranial base, but only modest expression in the palatal shelves. Fittingly, although the palatal shelves failed to elevate in Memo1 mutants, expression changes were modest within the shelves themselves. In contrast, the cranial base, which forms via endochondral ossification had major reductions in the expression of genes responsible for bone formation, notably matrix metalloproteinases and markers of the osteoblast lineage, mirrored by an increase in markers of cartilage and extracellular matrix development. Concomitant with these changes, mutant cranial bases showed an increased zone of hypertrophic chondrocytes accompanied by a reduction in both vascular invasion and mineralization. Finally, neural crest cell-specific deletion of Memo1 caused a failure of anterior cranial base ossification indicating a cell autonomous role for MEMO1 in the development of these neural crest cell derived structures. However, palate formation was largely normal in these conditional mutants, suggesting a non-autonomous role for MEMO1 in palatal closure. Overall, these findings assign a new function to MEMO1 in driving endochondral ossification in the cranium, and also link abnormal development of the cranial base with more widespread effects on craniofacial shape relevant to human craniofacial dysmorphology.
