Project description:BBF2H7 (BBF2 human homolog on chromosome 7), an ER-resident basic leucine zipper transcription factor, is activated in response to ER stress and abundantly expresses in chondrocytes. While BBF2H7 is widely expressed in many tissues and organs, the most intense signals were detected in the proliferating zone of the cartilage. We compared gene expressions in primary cultured chondrocytes prepared from rib cartilage between WT and BBF2H7-/- mice at E18.5. Primary cultured chondrocytes were prepared from E18.5 rib cartilage of WT and BBF2H7-/- mice. Chondrocytes were isolated using 0.2% collagenase D (Roche) after adherent connective tissue was removed by 0.2% trypsin (Sigma) and collagenase pretreatment. Isolated chondrocytes were maintained in α-MEM (Gibco) supplemented with 10% FCS and 50 µg/mL ascorbic acid. Adenovirus vectors expressing the mouse p60 BBF2H7 (1-377 aa, BBF-N) were constructed with the AdenoX Expression system (Clontech), according to the manufacturerâs protocol. The cells were infected with adenoviruses 30 h before analysis. We compared gene expressions in primary cultured chondrocytes prepared from rib cartilage between WT and BBF2H7-/- mice at E18.5 using a microarray and various genes associated with protein secretory pathway and ER biogenesis were significantly down-regulated in BBF2H7-/- chondrocytes. We infected primary cultured chondrocytes prepared from BBF2H7-/- mice with adenovirus expressing p60 BBF2H7. Several genes were up-regulated and we picked up them as the direct target of BBF2H7.

Project description:We set out to generate transcriptional maps of chondrocyte UPR gene networks in vivo using two mouse models (Schmid and Cog) of Schmid chondrodysplasia, in order to define the consequences of UPR activation for the adaptation, differentiation, and survival of chondrocytes experiencing ER stress during hypertrophy, thus providing insights into ER stress signaling and its impact on cartilage pathophysiology. Our data demonstrate that both models displayed similar unfolded protein responses (UPRs), involving activation of ER stress sensors Ire1 and Atf6 and upregulation of their downstream targets, including molecular chaperones, foldases, and ER-associated degradation machinery. Also upregulated were the emerging UPR regulators Wfs1 and Syvn1, recently identified UPR components including Armet and Creld2, and genes not previously implicated in ER stress such as Steap1 and Fgf21. Moreover, we transcriptionally profiled the expression of wildtype growth plate zone gene signatures in the mutant hypertrophic zones, in order to define the differentiation status of ER-stressed chondrocytes in the mutant hypertrophic zones. Hypertrophic zone gene upregulation and proliferative zone gene downregulation were both inhibited in Schmid hypertrophic zones, resulting in the persistence of a proliferative chondrocyte-like expression profile in ER-stressed Schmid chondrocytes. For the mutant hypertrophic zone gene expression profiling, the hypertrophic zone from one tibia from each of three two week old Schmid, wildtype (Schmid background), Cog, and wildtype (Cog background) mice was microdissected. In all cases, total RNA was extracted and amplified through two rounds of linear amplification, labelled with Cy3, and interrogated by microarray analysis using the Agilent 44K, mouse whole genome platform.

Project description:A comprehensive analysis of Sox9 binding profiles in developing chondrocytes identified marked enrichment of an AP-1-like motif (Ohba et al. 2015). Here, we have explored the functional interplay between Sox9 and AP-1 in mammalian chondrocyte development. Among AP-1 family members, Jun and Fosl2 were highly expressed within prehypertrophic and early hypertrophic chondrocytes. Chromatin immunoprecipitation followed by DNA sequencing (ChIP-seq) showed a striking overlap in Jun- and Sox9-bound regions throughout the chondrocyte genome, a reflection of direct binding of each factor to target motifs in shared enhancers, and physical interactions of AP-1 with Sox9. In vitro expression analysis indicates that direct co-binding of Sox9 and AP-1 at target motifs enhanced target gene expression, while protein-protein interactions suppressed AP-1- and Sox9-driven transcription. Analysis of prehypertrophic chondrocyte removal of Sox9 demonstrated Sox9 was essential for hypertrophic chondrocyte development, while in vitro and ex vivo analyses showed AP-1 promotes chondrocyte hypertrophy. Sox9 and Jun co-bound and co-activated a Col10a1 enhancer in Sox9 and AP-1 motif-dependent manners consistent with their combined action promoting hypertrophic gene expression. Together, the data support a model where AP-1-family members promote Sox9-action in the transition of chondrocytes to a terminal hypertrophic program. Intersection of ChIP-seq data from Sox9 and AP-1 factor Jun, RNA-seq data from developing rib chondrocytes and Col10a1mCherry positive hypertrophic chondrocytes in neonatal mice to uncover regulation of Sox9 by AP-1 factors during chondrocyte hypertrophy.

Project description:Axial growth of long bones occurs through a coordinated process of growth plate chondrocyte proliferation and differentiation. This maturation of chondrocytes is reflected in a zonal change in gene expression and cell morphology from resting to proliferative, prehypertrophic, and hypertrophic chondrocytes of the growth plate followed by ossification. A major experimental limitation in understanding growth plate biology and pathophysiology is the lack of a robust technique to isolate cells from the different zones, particularly from small animals. Here, we report on a new strategy for separating distinct chondrocyte populations from mouse growth plates. By transcriptome profiling of microdissected zones of growth plates, we identified novel, zone-specific cell surface markers and used these for flow cytometry and immunomagnetic cell separation to quantify, enrich, and characterize chondrocytes populations with respect to their differentiation status. This approach provides a novel platform to study cartilage development and characterize mouse growth plate chondrocytes to reveal unique cellular phenotypes of the distinct subpopulations within the growth plate.

Project description:Synovial macrophages that are activated by cartilage fragments initiate synovitis, a condition that promotes hypertrophic changes in chondrocytes leading to cartilage degeneration in OA. In this study, we analyzed the molecular response of chondrocytes under condition of this type of stimulation to identify a molecular therapeutic target. Stimulated macrophages promoted hypertrophic changes in chondrocytes resulting in production of matrix-degrading enzymes of cartilage. Among the top-upregulated genes, FliI was found to be released from activated chondrocytes and exerted autocrine/paracrine effects on chondrocytes leading to an increase in expression of catabolic and hypertrophic factors. Silencing FliI in stimulated cells significantly reduced expression of catabolic and hypertrophic factors in cocultured chondrocytes. Our further results demonstrated that the FliI-TLR4-ERK1/2 axis is involved in the hypertrophic signaling of chondrocytes and catabolism of cartilage. Our findings provide a new insight into the pathogenesis of OA and identify a potentially new molecular target for diagnostics and therapeutics.

Project description:Autologous chondrocyte transplantation (ACT) is a routine technique to regenerate focal cartilage lesions. However, patients with osteoarthritis (OA) are lacking an appropriate long-lasting treatment alternative, partly since it is not known if chondrocytes from OA patients have the same chondrogenic differentiation potential as chondrocytes from donors not affected by OA. Articular chondrocytes from patients with OA undergoing total knee replacement (Mankin Score >3, Ahlbäck Score >2) and from patients undergoing ACT, here referred to as normal donors (ND), were isolated applying protocols used for ACT. Their chondrogenic differentiation potential was evaluated both in high-density pellet and scaffold (Hyaff-11) cultures by histological proteoglycan assessment (Bern Score) and immunohistochemistry for collagen types I and II. Chondrocytes cultured in monolayer and scaffolds were subjected to gene expression profiling using genome-wide oligonucleotide microarrays. Expression data were verified by using quantitative RT-PCR. Chondrocytes from ND and OA donors demonstrated accumulation of comparable amounts of cartilage matrix components, including sulphated proteoglycans and collagen types I and II. The mRNA expression of cartilage markers (COL2A1, COMP, aggrecan, CRTL1, SOX9) and genes involved in matrix synthesis (biglycan, COL9A2, COL11A1, TIMP4, CILP2) was highly induced in 3D cultures of chondrocytes from both donor groups. Genes associated with hypertrophic or OA cartilage (COL10A1, RUNX2, periostin, ALP, PTHR1, MMP13, COL1A1, COL3A1) were not significantly regulated between the two groups of donors. The expression of 661 genes, including COMP, FN1, and SOX9, were differentially regulated between OA and ND chondrocytes cultured in monolayer. During scaffold culture, the differences diminished between the OA and ND chondrocytes, and only 184 genes were differentially regulated. Only few genes were differentially expressed between OA and ND chondrocytes in Hyaff-11 culture. The risk of differentiation into hypertrophic cartilage does not seem to be increased for OA chondrocytes. Our findings suggest that the chondrogenic capacity is not significantly affected by OA and OA chondrocytes fulfill the requirements for matrix-associated ACT.
