ScMultiome-seq and single-cell spatial HD data for the developing human knee

ABSTRACT: Cartilage plays a crucial role in skeletal development and function, and abnormal development contributes to genetic and age-related skeletal disease. Compromises to the integrity of joint-lining articular cartilage in particular lead to debilitating chronic degenerative diseases including osteoarthritis. To better understand how human articular cartilage develops in vivo, we jointly profiled the transcriptome and open chromatin regions in individual nuclei recovered from distal femora at 2 fetal timepoints. We used these multiomic data to predict transcription factor-based regulatory networks that are important for articular chondrocyte differentiation. We developed a human pluripotent stem cell platform for interrogating the function of predicted transcription factors during chondrocyte differentiation and identified new biological roles for CREB5. We expect new regulatory networks we uncovered using multiomic data to be important for promoting cartilage health and treating disease, and our platform to be a useful tool for studying cartilage development in vitro.

Creb5 coordinates synovial joint formation with the genesis of articular cartilage

Project description:While prior work has established that articular cartilage arises from Prg4-expressing perichondrial cells, it is not clear how this process is specifically restricted to the perichondrium of synovial joints. We document that the transcription factor Creb5 is necessary to initiate the expression of signaling molecules that both direct the formation of synovial joints and guide perichondrial tissue to form articular cartilage instead of bone. Creb5 promotes the generation of articular chondrocytes from perichondrial precursors in part by inducing expression of Wif1, which blocks a Wnt5a autoregulatory loop in the perichondrium. Postnatal deletion of Creb5 in the articular cartilage leads to loss of both flat superficial zone articular chondrocytes coupled with a loss of both Prg4 and Wif1 expression; and a non-cell autonomous up-regulation of Ctgf. Our findings indicate that Creb5 promotes both joint formation and the subsequent development of articular chondrocytes by disrupting a Wnt5a positive-feedback loop in the perichondrium.

Differential Gene Expression Associated With Postnatal Articular Cartilage Maturation

Project description:Chondrocyte gene expression was analyzed to study mechanisms involved in the structural and functional adaptation of articular cartilage during postnatal maturation. Transcriptional profiling was used to compare articular chondrocytes between four neonatal and four adult horses. Expressional differences featured matrix proteins and matrix-modifying enzymes reflecting the transition from cartilage growth to cartilage homeostasis. Keywords: articular cartilage, maturation, horse, cDNA microarray

Spatial Regulation of Gene Expression in Articular Cartilage Assessed by Laser Captured Microdissection and Microarray

Project description:We used laser capture microdissection to isolate different zones of the articular cartilage from proximal tibiae of 1-week old mice, and used microarray to analyze global gene expression. Bioinformatic analysis corroborated previously known signaling pathways, such as Wnt and Bmp signaling, and implicated novel pathways, such as ephrin and integrin signaling, for spatially associated articular chondrocyte differentiation and proliferation. In addition, comparison of the spatial regulation of articular and growth plate cartilage revealed unexpected similarities between the superficial zone of the articular cartilage and the hypertrophic zone of the growth plate. Collecte five biological replications in three superficial, mid zone and deep zones of Articular Cartilage Assessed by Laser Captured Microdissection and Microarray(Superficial Zone vs Mid Zone vs Deep Zone)

Identification of chondrocyte subsets during human development

Project description:Joint injury and osteoarthritis affect millions of people worldwide, but attempts to generate articular cartilage using adult stem/progenitor cells have been unsuccessful. We hypothesized that recapitulation of the human developmental chondrogenic program using pluripotent stem cells (PSCs) may represent a superior approach for cartilage restoration. Using laser capture microdissection followed by microarray analysis, we first defined a surface phenotype (CD146low/negCD166low/negCD73+CD44lowBMPR1B+) distinguishing the earliest cartilage committed cells (pre-chondrocytes) at 5-6 weeks of development; pellet assays confirmed these cells as functional, chondrocyte-restricted progenitors. Flow cytometry, qPCR and immunohistochemistry at 17 weeks revealed that the superficial layer of peri-articular chondrocytes was enriched in cells with this surface phenotype. Isolation of cells with a similar immunophenotype from differentiating human PSCs revealed a population of CD166negBMPR1B+ putative pre-chondrocytes. Functional characterization confirmed these cells as cartilage-committed, chondrocyte progenitors. The identification of a specific molecular signature for primary cartilagecommitted progenitors may provide essential knowledge for the generation of purified, clinically relevant cartilage cells from PSCs. A total of 15 samples were analyzed. In the first comparison, there were 6 biological replicates for both the chondrogenic condensations and total limb cells. In the second comparison, three biological replicates of chondrocytes from the articular region were compared to the 6 replicates of the condensations.

Tiki2 maintains articular cartilage homeostasis and protects against osteoarthritis by inhibiting Wnt/β-catenin signaling

Project description:Osteoarthritis (OA) is a serious degenerative joint disease with high morbidity and is currently incurable because of its poorly defined underlying molecular basis. Here, we demonstrated that Tiki2, a membrane-tethered proteolytic Wnt inhibitor, is highly expressed in the articular chondrocytes of hyaline cartilage and that its expression negatively correlates with osteoarthritis. Tiki2 haploinsufficiency in mice causes spontaneous articular cartilage degeneration. Tiki2 deletion in chondrocytes accelerates instability-induced knee joint osteoarthritis progression in mice. Mechanistically, Tiki2 antagonizes Wnt signaling in chondrocytes and maintains chondrocyte anabolic gene expression. Moreover, intra-articular administration of a TIKI2-expressing adeno-associated virus significantly alleviated OA progression in mice, and expressing TIKI2 promoted chondrogenesis and chondrocyte redifferentiation and inhibited hypertrophic differentiation in vitro. Our results reveal the function of Tiki2 in articular cartilage homeostasis and osteoarthritis and suggest that Tiki2 is a potential target for osteoarthritis therapy.

TRIM15 drives chondrocyte senescence and osteoarthritis progression

Project description:Chondrocyte senescence underlies osteoarthritis (OA). However, the pathogenesis of chondrocyte senescence remains largely unclear. Here we report that TRIM15 is a critical regulator in chondrocyte senescence. TIRM15 is highly expressed in chondrocytes of senescent cartilage from human OA patients and aged mice. Using gain- and loss-of-function studies, we further identify that TRIM15 facilitates chondrocyte senescence. Notably, conditional deletion of TRIM15 in chondrocytes severely impairs skeletal growth, partially due to the fact that embryonic chondrocyte senescence is disturbed. Compared with Col2a1-CreERT2/TRIM15flox/flox mice, TRIM15flox/flox mice exhibits accelerated OA phenotype, increased senescence markers and senescence-associated secretory phenotype (SASP) during aging. Mechanistically, TRIM15 binds with YAP and directly mediates K48-linked YAP ubiquitination at K254, which interrupts the interaction between YAP and AMOT, leading to enhanced YAP nuclear translocation. Intra-articular injection of AAV5-Trim15 shRNA decelerates OA progression in mice. Collectively, these findings indicate that targeting TRIM15 reshapes aging cartilage microenvironment and protects against OA.

Human iPSC can be differentiated in vitro to articular cartilage or to osteogenic organoids via the endochondral ossification transdifferentiation pathway

Project description:The ability to generate chondrocytes and osteoblasts from induced pluripotent stem cells (iPSCs) will provide insights into skeletal development and genetic skeletal disorders and generate cells for regenerative medicine applications. Here we describe a method that directs iPSC-derived sclerotome to chondroprogenitors in 3D pellet culture then to articular chondrocytes or, alternatively, along the growth plate cartilage pathway to become hypertrophic chondrocytes that can transdifferentiate to osteoblasts. Osteogenic organoids deposit and mineralize a collagen I extracellular matrix (ECM), mirroring in vivo endochondral bone formation. We have identified gene expression signatures at key developmental stages including chondrocyte maturation, hypertrophy and transdifferentiation to osteoblasts, and show that this system can be used to model genetic cartilage and bone disorders.
