Project description:Tendons are prominent members of the family of fibrous connective tissues (FCTs), which collectively are the most abundant tissues in vertebrates and have crucial roles in transmitting mechanical force and linking organs. Tendon diseases are among the most common arthropathy disorders; thus knowledge of tendon gene regulation is essential for a complete understanding of FCT biology. Here we show autonomous circadian rhythms in mouse tendon and primary human tenocytes, controlled by an intrinsic molecular circadian clock. Time-series microarrays identified the first circadian transcriptome of murine tendon, revealing that 4.6% of the transcripts (745 genes) are expressed in a circadian manner.

Project description:The transcriptome of different tendons varies based on anatomical location and is likely influenced by the biomechanical loading environment. While differences in biologic and mechanical properties of whole tendons have been assessed, less is understood about differences within a tendon along its proximal-distal axis. Therefore, our objective was to determine the characteristics of and relationship between the transcriptomes and mechanical properties of a single tendon.

Project description:Although the biological events that modulate tendon embryonic development are widely studied, how they orchestrate postnatal tendon maturation that is similar to tendon regeneration is still largely unknown For molecular profiling of tendon maturation, we performed mRNA microarray analyses of total rat tendon tissue harvested from normal neonatal and 6-8w Achilles’ tendons and identified meaningful genes in down-regulated group

Project description:Injuries to flexor tendons can be complicated by fibrotic adhesions, which severely impair the function of the hand. Adhesions have been associated with PAI-1, a master suppressor of protease activity including matrix metalloproteinases (MMP). In the present study, we used next generation RNA sequencing (RNA-seq) to assess genome-wide differences in mRNA expression due to PAI-1 deficiency after zone II flexor tendon injury. Ingenuity pathway analysis was used to characterize molecular pathways and biological drivers associated with differentially expressed genes. Analysis of hundreds of overlapping and differentially-expressed genes in PAI-1 knockout and C57Bl/6J mice during tendon healing revealed common and distinct biological processes associated with the regulation of matrix organization, cell cycle, and immune response. Most importantly, we identified the activation of PTEN signaling and the inhibition of FOXO1-associated biological processes as a unique transcriptional signature of the healing tendon in the PAI-1 KO mice. The differences in transcriptomics between the two mouse strains are transcriptionally related to complex cross-talk between PI3K/Akt/mTOR, PKC, and MAPK signaling cascades that drive differences in transcriptional regulation of cell proliferation, survival and senescence, and chronic inflammation as potential drivers of fibrotic healing and adhesions in the C57Bl/6J injured tendons. These transcriptional observations should guide future studies to develop an improved understanding of the biological limitations of tendon healing as the basis for rational design of targeted therapeutics for scar-free regenerative healing of tendon.

Project description:We report RNA sequencing data from the plantaris tendons of adult male mice in the C57Bl/6 background that either have the IGF1 receptor (IGF1R) present in their tendons (Scx:IGF1R+) or mice in which IGF1R has been deleted in tenocytes expressing scleraxis (Scx:IGF1R-). Mice were created by crossing ScxCreERT2 mice with IGF1R flox/flox mice. Mice were treated with tamoxifen for 5 days to induce recombination at the IGF1R allele, and then subjected to a synergist ablation procedure in which the Achilles tendon is removed, resulting in compensatory growth of the plantaris tendon. Mice were analyzed either 7 or 14 days after synergist ablation. Control mice that did not undergo tamoxifen treatment or synergist ablation were also studied.

Project description:We have reported that loss of Tnmd leads to inferior early tendon repair characterized by fibrovascular scaring and therefore hypothesized that its lack will persistently cause deficient repair during later stages. Tnmd knockout (Tnmd-/-) and wild-type (WT) animals were subjected to complete Achilles tendon surgical transection followed by end-to-end suture. Lineage tracing revealed a reduction in tendon-lineage cells marked by ScleraxisGFP, but an increase in alpha smooth muscle actin myofibroblasts in Tnmd-/- tendon scars. At the proliferative stage, more pro-inflammatory M1 macrophages and larger collagen II cartilaginous template were detected in this group. At the remodeling stage, histological scoring revealed lower repair quality in the injured Tnmd-/- tendons, which was coupled with higher HO quantified by micro-CT. Tendon biomechanical properties were compromised in both groups upon injury, however we identified an abnormal stiffening of non-injured Tnmd-/- tendons, which possessed higher static and dynamic E-moduli. Pathologically thicker and abnormally shaped collagen fibrils were observed by TEM in Tnmd-/- tendons and this together with augmented HO resulted in diminished running capacity of Tnmd-/- mice. These novel findings demonstrate that Tnmd plays a protecting role against trauma-induced endochondral HO and can inspire the generation of novel therapeutics to accelerate repair.

Project description:We report RNA sequencing data from the plantaris tendons of adult male mice in the C57Bl/6 background that either have the scleraxis gene (Scx+) or mice in which scleraxis has been deleted using CreERT2 driven from the Rosa26 locus (Scx-). Mice in which scleraxis was deleted were created by crossing scleraxis-floxed mice with Rosa26-CreERT2 mice. Rosa26-CreERT2 mice that did not have a floxed scleraxis allele served as controls. Mice were treated with tamoxifen for 5 days to induce recombination at the scleraxis locus, and then subjected to a synergist ablation procedure in which the Achilles tendon is removed, resulting in compensatory growth of the plantaris tendon. Mice were analyzed either 7 or 14 days after synergist ablation. Control mice that did not undergo tamoxifen treatment or synergist ablation were also studied (NOC).

Project description:Tendon is a highly organized, dense connective tissue that has been demonstrated to have very little turnover. In spite of the low turnover, tendon can grow in response to loading, which may take place primarily at the periphery. Tendon injuries and recurrence of injuries are common in both human and animal in sports. It is unclear why some areas of the tendon are more susceptible to such injury and whether this is due to intrinsic regional differences in extracellular matrix (ECM) production or tissue turnover. This study aimed to compare populations of tenocytes derived from the tendon core and periphery. Tenocytes were isolated from equine superficial digital flexor tendons (SDFT), and the proliferation capacity was determined. ECM production was characterized by immuno- and histological staining and by liquid chromatography-mass spectrometry-based proteomics. Core and periphery SDFT cultures exhibited comparable proliferation rates and had very similar proteome profiles, but showed biological variation in collagen type I deposition. In conclusion, the intrinsic properties of tenocytes from different regions of the tendon are very similar and other factors in the tissue may contribute to how specific areas respond to loading or injury.

Project description:Tears of the human supraspinatus tendon are common and often cause painful and debilitating loss of function. Progressive failure of the tendon leading to structural abnormality and tearing is accompanied by numerous cellular and extra-cellular matrix (ECM) changes in the tendon tissue. This proteomics study aimed to compare torn and aged rotator cuff tissue to young and healthy tissue, and provide the first ECM inventory of human supraspinatus tendon generated using label-free quantitative LC-MS/MS. Employing two digestion protocols (trypsin and elastase), we analysed grain-sized tendon supraspinatus biopsies from older patients with torn tendons and from young controls. Our findings confirm measurable degradation of collagen fibrils and associated proteins in old and torn tendons, suggesting a significant loss of tissue organisation. A particularly marked reduction of cartilage oligomeric matrix protein (COMP) raises the possibility of using changes in levels of this glycoprotein as a marker of abnormal tissue, as previously suggested in horse models. Surprisingly, and despite using an elastase digestion for validation, elastin was not detected, raising the possibility that it is not highly abundant in human supraspinatus tendon. Finally, we identified marked changes to the elastic fibre, fibrillin-rich niche and the pericellular matrix. Further investigation of these regions may yield other potential biomarkers and help to explain detrimental cellular processes associated with tendon ageing and tendinopathy.
