Lymphatic dysfunction drives inflammatory temporomandibular joint osteoarthritis (TMJOA) and pain

ABSTRACT: Temporomandibular joint (TMJ) arthritis is a craniofacial disorder characterized by joint dysfunction and orofacial pain. Despite of its established roles in fluid and immune regulation, lymphatic regulation, and function in TMJ remain unknown. Using genetic report mouse, uDISCO tissue clearing, and 3D volume imaging, we defined lymphatic vessel morphology, structure, anatomic location in adult mouse TMJ. We demonstrate in a mouse model of TMJ osteoarthritis (TMJOA) that arthritis induces inflammatory lymphangiogenesis and leads to impaired synovial lymphatic functions, including decreases in synovial influx and lymph node fluid drainage. To establish the causative link between lymphatic remodeling and TMJOA, we performed lymphatic loss- and gain-of-function studies. Lymphatic deficiency exacerbated cartilage defects, bone loss, synovitis, synovial fibrosis, and pain behaviors in TMJOA mice. Conversely, lymphatic activation via a hydrogel-mediated VEGF-C delivery to TMJ reduced TMJ pain, inflammation, and arthritis-like pathogenesis. Therefore, we defined lymphatic structure in TMJ and found that lymphatic dysfunction drives TMJOA pathogenesis and pain, suggesting its potential as a therapeutic target.

Mapping cell diversity and position in temporomandibular joint osteoarthritis with pain at single cell resolution

Project description:Temporomandibular joint (TMJ) osteoarthritis (OA) is a highly prevalent disorder affecting patient’s quality of life due to joint pain and dysfunction. A comprehensive understanding of cell type diversity and their dynamics of TMJ along joint degeneration and pain is lacking. Here we established an inflammatory TMJOA mouse model via intra-articular injection of CFA (Complete Freund’s Adjuvant). TMJOA mice exhibited OA and orofacial pain, recapitulating hallmark symptoms in patients. We performed single-cell transcriptomic profiling of TMJ followed by the validation. We revealed cellular diversity, anatomic position, and cell dynamics of TMJ at single cell resolution along the joint degeneration and pain.

Transcription profiling of mouse embryonic E16.5 temporomandibular joint

Project description:We conducted a genetic analysis of the developing temporo-mandibular joint (TMJ), a highly specialized synovial joint that permits movement and function of the mammalian jaw. First, we used laser capture microdissection to perform a genome-wide expression analysis of each of its developing components. The expression patterns of genes identified in this screen were examined in the TMJ and compared to other synovial joints including the shoulder joint and the hip joint. Striking differences were noted, indicating that the TMJ forms via a distinct molecular program. Several components of the Hedgehog (Hh) signaling pathway are among the genes identified in the screen, including Gli2, which is expressed specifically in the condyle and in the disk of the developing TMJ. We found that mice deficient in Gli2 display aberrant TMJ development such that the condyle loses its growth plate-like cellular organization and no disk is formed. In addition, we utilized a conditional strategy to remove activity of the Hh co-receptor encoded by Smo from chondrocyte progenitors. This cell autonomous loss of Hh signaling allows for disk formation, but the resulting structure fails to separate from the condyle. Thus, these experiments establish that Hh signaling acts at two distinct steps in disk morphogenesis, condyle initiation and disk-condyle separation, and provide a molecular framework for future studies of the TMJ. Experiment Overall Design: Mouse embryos fresh frozen and TMJ tissue captured by LCM. 3 samples in biological triplicate.

Effects of mechanical stress and deficiency of dihydrotestosterone or 17β-estradiol on temporomandibular joint osteoarthritis in mice

Project description:Temporomandibular joint osteoarthritis (TMJ-OA), a subtype of temporomandibular joint dysfunction (TMD), is characterized by progressive cartilage degradation, subchondral bone erosion, and chronic pain. Although there has been extensive research on TMJ-OA, its etiology remains unknown. Age, hormonal factors, and excessive mechanical stress on the TMJ are proposed risk factors for TMJ-OA. Using microarrays, we discovered two disease susceptibility genes that have been suggested to be involved in the pathogenic mechanism of TMJ-OA.

Transcriptomic analysis for temporomandibular joint arthritis

Project description:Background: Temporomandibular joint osteoarthritis (TMJOA) is a degenerative disease marked by the progressive degeneration of cartilage and underlying bone, resulting in pain and functional impairment. Despite current conservative treatments such as physical therapy and NSAIDs, the etiology and pathophysiology of TMJOA are unclear, making effective management difficult. Finding reliable biomarkers for early identification and new therapeutic targets is crucial to improve treatment outcomes.

IGF2BP2 induces subchondral bone loss of the temporomandibular joint via enhancing FOS-PPARγ-NFATC1 network

Project description:Overactivated osteoclastogenesis leading to abnormal subchondral bone loss is the main feature of temporomandibular joint osteoarthritis (TMJOA). The role of N6-methyladenosine (m6A) in osteoclast differentiation in TMJOA remains unknown. Here, we found that an m6A reader IGF2BP2 was essential for mature osteoclasts induction. In TMJ tissues of TMJOA patients, the expression of IGF2BP2 was increased. Moreover, IGF2BP2 was augmented in subchondral bone of monosodium iodoacetate (MIA)–induced TMJOA mice. Igf2bp2 deficiency attenuated MIA-induced subchondral bone loss and suppressed osteoclast differentiation. Mechanistically, IGF2BP2 directly stabilized PPARγ and C-FOS mRNA to enhance the NFATC1 signaling, thereby inducing osteoclast maturation. Moreover, the stabilized PPARγ promoted the transcription of C-FOS, resulting in a further amplified signaling of NFATC1. In Igf2bp2-deficient cells, overexpression of PPARγ and C-FOS rescued the function of osteoclasts through restoring reduced levels of NFATC1. On the other hand, IGF2BP2/PPARγ/C-FOS axis facilitated the formation of osteoclasts by restoring the inhibited autophagy levels through the downregulation of ATG16L2. Using an IGF2BP2 inhibitor CWI1-2 hindered osteoclast formation and represented therapeutic effects for TMJOA. In summary, IGF2BP2 is essential in differentiation and maturation of osteoclasts and aggravates TMJOA via stabilizing PPARγ and C-FOS, which promoting NFATC1-mediated osteoclast signaling and ATG16L2-mediated autophagy.

CircRNA Expression Profiling of the Rat Thalamus In Temporomandibular Joint Chronic Inflammatory Pain

Project description:Differential expression of circular RNAs (DEcircRNAs) in the thalamus, a relay station of the orofacial pain transmission pathway, may play an important role in inflammation and inflammatory pain progression in TMJOA and serve as a potential marker for its targeting. In this study, we obtained the expression profile of circRNAs from the thalamus of the rat TMJOA model by high-throughput sequencing to explore the potential role of circRNA in TMJOA inflammation and chronic inflammatory pain progression and their potential as new targeted molecular markers. Additionally, providing new clues to unravel the molecular mechanisms of chronic orofacial pain, providing insights into the potential roles of circRNAs in pain modulation, and paving the way for future research in this area.
