Project description:Objectives: To identify novel gene transcripts and biological processes in meniscus from patients with and without osteoarthritis (OA). Methods: We used microarrays to identify gene transcripts differentially expressed in meniscus tissues obtained from OA and non-OA patients (N=12 each). Real-time PCR was performed on selected gene transcripts. Biological processes and gene networking was examined computationally. Transcriptome signatures from OA and non-OA meniscus were mapped with 37 previously published gene transcripts differentially expressed between healthy and OA cartilage to evaluate how meniscus gene expression relates to cartilage with this disease. Results: We identified 168 gene transcripts that were significantly differentially expressed between OA (75 elevated, 93 repressed) and non-OA samples (≥1.5-fold). Among these, CSN1S1, COL10A1, WIF1, SPARCL1 and DEFA3 were the most prominent gene transcript elevated in OA meniscus and POSTN, VEGFA, CEMIP, COL6A3 and SOX11 were repressed in OA meniscus. Gene transcripts elevated in OA meniscus represented response to external stimuli, cell migration and localization while those repressed in OA meniscus represented histone deacetylase activity and skeletal development. Numerous long lncRNAs were differentially expressed between the two samples. When segregated by OA-associated gene transcripts, we observed three distinct clustering patterns of OA and non-OA meniscus. Conclusions: These data provide novel evidence for a role of epigenetically regulated histone deacetylation in meniscus tears as well as expression of lncRNAs. Patient clustering based on OA-associated gene transcripts confirmed that the meniscus in OA knees exhibited OA phenotype while injured meniscus demonstrated some signs towards OA.

Project description:Background: Meniscus tears are the most common injury in the knee and are associated with an increased risk of osteoarthritis (OA). The molecular profile of knees with meniscus tears is not well-studied. Therefore, to advance our understanding of the early response of the knee to injury, we compared the gene expression profile of meniscus and articular cartilage within the same knees following meniscus injury. Hypothesis/Purpose: To identify differences between the molecular signatures of meniscus and articular cartilage from knees with intact articular cartilage undergoing arthroscopic partial meniscectomy. Study Design: Descriptive laboratory study Methods: Patients (n=12) with a known isolated medial meniscus tear without any knee chondrosis or radiographic OA were consented prior to surgery. During arthroscopic partial meniscectomy, a sample of their injured meniscus and a sample of their articular cartilage off the medial femoral condyle were procured. The transcriptome signatures, as measured through Affymetrix microarray, were compared between the two tissues and underlying biological processes were explored computationally. Results: 3566 gene transcripts were differentially expressed between meniscus and articular cartilage. Gene transcripts down-regulated in articular cartilage were associated with extracellular matrix organization, wound healing, cell adhesion, and chemotaxis. Gene transcripts up-regulated in articular cartilage were associated with blood vessels morphogenesis and angiogenesis. Examples of individual genes with significant differences in expression between the two tissues include IBSP (23.76 fold; P < 0.001), upregulated in meniscus, and TREM1 (3.23 fold; P = 0.006), upregulated in meniscus. Conclusion: The meniscus and articular cartilage have distinct gene expression profiles in knees with meniscus tears and intact articular cartilage. Total RNA obtained from injured meniscus and normal articular cartilage from patients undergoing partial meniscectomy.

Project description:Osteoarthritis (OA) is the most prevalent joint disease with the typifying feature being the progressive degradation of articular cartilage during disease progression. In this study we used whole transcriptome RNA-seq as a tool to compare gene expression changes between age-matched osteoarthritic human hip OA cartilage (n=10) compared to control (neck of femur fracture) cartilage (n=6) [GSE107308]. All cartilage was from patients undergoing acetabulofemoral joint replacement. Cartilage RNA was isolated from cartilage within 2 hr of joint replacement surgery, mRNA was polyA purified and transcript expression was analysed using 78-base paired-end sequencing generating on average 28 million reads/sample sequencing. The data shows excellent correlation with our previous microarray data but identifies significantly more differentially expressed transcripts plus novel transcript variants, several of which have been validated by real-time qPCR. Our work sheds further light on chondrocyte transcriptome expression and highlights gene expression changes and novel transcripts potentially important in osteoarthritis progression

Project description:Osteoarthritis (OA) is an age-related degenerative musculoskeletal disease characterised by loss of articular cartilage, synovitis, abnormal bone proliferation and subchondral bone sclerosis. Underlying OA pathogenesis is yet to be fully elucidated with no OA specific biomarkers in clinical use. Ex-vivo equine cartilage explants (n=5) were incubated in TNF-α/IL-1β supplemented culture media for 8 days, with media removed and replaced at 2, 5 and 8 days. Acetonitrile metabolite extractions of 8 day cartilage explants and media samples at all time points underwent 1D 1H nuclear magnetic resonance metabolomic analysis with media samples also undergoing mass spectrometry proteomic analysis. Within the cartilage, metabolites glucose and lysine were elevated following TNF-α/IL-1β treatment whilst adenosine, alanine, betaine, creatine, myo-inositol and uridine levels decreased. Within the culture media, four, four and six differentially abundant metabolites and 154, 138 and 72 differentially abundant proteins, with > 2 fold change, were identified for 1-2 day, 3-5 day and 6-8 day time points respectively. Nine potential novel OA neopeptides were elevated in treated media. Our novel study identified metabolites, proteins and extracellular matrix derived neopeptides which provides insightful information on OA pathogenesis, enabling potential translation for clinical markers and possible novel therapeutic targets.

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. Experiment Overall Design: Gene expression profiles of monolayer cultures (ML; passage 2) and Hyaff-11 scaffold cultures (3D; 14 days in vitro) of chondrocytes from 3 normal donors (ND; underwent ACT treatment) and 3 donors suffering from Osteoarthritis (OA; underwent knee replacement surgery) were determined. Comparative analyses between 3D and ML cultures (3D vs. ML) were performed to assess differentiation capacity of ND and OA chondrocytes. Furthermore, OA-related differences were determined comparing OA and ND monolayers as well as scaffold cultures (each OA vs. ND).

Project description:Objective: To examine the changes in tibial plateau cartilage in relation to body mass index (BMI) in patients with end-stage osteoarthritis (OA). Design: Knees were obtained from 23 OA patients (3 non-obese, 20 obese) at the time of total knee replacement. RNA prepared from cartilage was probed for differentially expressed (DE) gene transcripts using RNA microarrays and validated via real-time PCR. Differences with regard to age, sex, and between medial and lateral compartments were also queried. Results: Microarrays revealed that numerous transcripts were significantly DE between non-obese and obese patients (≥1.5-fold) using pooled and separate data from medial and lateral compartments. Correlation analyses showed that 706 transcripts (459 positively, 247 negatively) were significantly correlated with BMI. Among these, HS3ST6, HSD17B12, and FAM26F were positively correlated while STAC3, PRSS21, and EDA were negatively correlated. Differentially correlated transcripts represented important biological processes e.g. cellular metabolic processes, anatomical structure morphogenesis and cellular response to growth factors. Although age and sex had some effect on transcript expression, most intriguing results were observed for comparison between medial and lateral compartments. Transcripts (MMP13, CLEC3A, MATN3, EPYC, SCARNA5, COL2A1) elevated in the medial compartment represented skeletal system development, cartilage development, collagen and proteoglycan metabolism, and extracellular matrix organization. Likewise, transcripts (SELE, CTSS, VSIG4, F13A1, and STEAP4) repressed in medial compartment represented host immune response, cell migration, wound healing, cell proliferation and response to cytokines. PCR data confirmed expression of DE transcripts. Conclusions: This study supports molecular interaction between obesity and OA and implies that BMI is an important determinant of transcript-level changes in cartilage.

Project description:In an effort to identify novel differentially-expressed genes in OA, we performed RNA-seq analysis using cartilage isolated from nonarthritic and OA patients. Total RNA was isolated from 3 samples of nonarthritic cartilage and 4 samples of OA cartilage (Kellgren-Lawrence Grade 3 or 4). Genes (900 total, 600 up-regulated, 300 down-regulated) were differentially expressed in OA vs. normal (fold change > 2, FDR < 0.00001, adjusted p < 0.05). Gene set enrichment analysis (GSEA) indicated altered gene expression pattern in OA cartilage compared with nonarthritic cartilage. Specifically, pathways known to be implicated in OA pathogenesis, including inflammatory response, interferon alpha and gamma response, apoptosis, and oxidative phosphorylation, were up-regulated in OA cartilage compared with nonarthritic cartilage.

Project description:Osteoarthritis (OA) is an age-related degenerative musculoskeletal disease characterised by loss of articular cartilage, synovitis, abnormal bone proliferation and subchondral bone sclerosis. The underlying pathogenesis of OA is yet to be fully elucidated with no OA specific biomarkers in clinical use. Nuclear magnetic resonance (NMR) spectroscopy and mass spectrometry (MS) allow identification of the global metabolome and proteome respectively. During this study, ex-vivo equine cartilage explants (n=5) were incubated in TNF-α/IL-1β supplemented culture media for 8 days, with media removed and replaced at 2, 5 and 8 days. Acetonitrile metabolite extractions of 8 day cartilage explants and media samples at all time points underwent 1H NMR metabolic analysis with media samples also undergoing MS proteomic analysis. Within the cartilage, metabolites glucose and lysine were elevated following TNF-α/IL-1β treatment whilst adenosine, alanine, betaine, creatine, myo-inositol and uridine levels decreased. Within the culture media, four, four and six metabolites were identified as being differentially abundant between control and treatment groups for 1-2 day, 3-5 day and 6-8 day time points respectively. Culture media proteomics identified 154, 138 and 72 proteins differentially abundant, with > 2 fold change, between control and treatment groups for 1-2 day, 3-5 day and 6-8 day time points respectively. Nine potential novel OA neopeptides were elevated in treated media. This is the first study to use a multi ‘omics’ approach to simultaneously investigate the metabolomic profile of ex-vivo cartilage and metabolomic/proteomic profiles of culture media using the TNF-α/IL-1β ex-vivo OA cartilage model. This study has identified a panel of metabolites, proteins and extracellular matrix derived neopeptides which are differentially abundant during an early phase of the OA model which may provide further information on underlying disease pathogenesis, allow potential translation for clinical markers and possible novel therapeutic targets.
