Project description:Using bulk RNA-seq for chondrocytes isolated from preserved cartilage and damaged cartilage, 558 differentially expressed genes were identified. Given the shared genetic and biochemical environment of D-C and P-C located within the same knee, the differences in tissue integrity and resulting chondrocyte phenotype could in part be attributed to differences in the mechanical microenvironment; Through ingenuity pathway analysis and other molecular biology method, we identified ESR1 as a promosing up-stream regulator which could regulate chondrocyte phenotype and reponse to mechanical loading.

Project description:Skeletal integrity in humans and animals is maintained by daily mechanical loading. It has been widely accepted that osteocytes function as mechanosensors. Many biochemical signaling molecules are involved in the response of osteocytes to mechanical stimulation. The aim of this study was to identify genes involved in the translation of mechanical stimuli into bone formation. The four-point bending model was used to induce a single period of mechanical loading (comprising 300 cycles (2 Hz) using a peak magnitude of 60 N) on the right tibia, while the contra lateral left tibia served as control. Six hours after loading, the effects of mechanical loading on gene-expression were determined with microarray analysis. Protein expression of differentially regulated genes was evaluated with immunohistochemistry. Nine genes were found to exhibit a significant differential gene expression in LOAD compared to control. MEPE, Garnl1, V2R2B, and QFG TN1 olfactory receptor were up-regulated, and creatine kinase (muscle form), fibrinogen-B beta-polypeptide, monoamine oxidase A, troponin-C and kinesin light chain-C were down-regulated. Validation with real-time RT-PCR analysis confirmed the up regulation of MEPE and the down-regulation of creatine kinase (muscle form) and troponin-C in the loaded tibia. Immunohistochemistry showed that the increase of MEPE protein expression was already detectable six hours after mechanical loading. In conclusion, these genes probably play a role during translation of mechanical stimuli six hours after mechanical loading. The modulation of MEPE expression may indicate a connection between bone mineralization and bone formation after mechanical stimulation. Two groups: LOAD vs contralateral control and SHAM vs contralateral control (n=5/group)

Project description:The advent of high-throughput measurements of gene expression and bioinformatics analysis methods offers new ways to study gene expression patterns. The primary goal of this study was to determine the time sequence for gene expression in a bone subjected to mechanical loading, during key periods of the bone formation process, including expression of matrix-related genes, the appearance of active osteoblasts, and bone desensitization. A standard model for bone loading was employed in which the right forelimb was loaded axially for three minutes per day, while the left forearm served as a non-loaded, contralateral control. We evaluated loading-induced gene expression over a time course of 4 hours to 32 days after the first loading session. Six distinct, time-dependent patterns of gene expression were identified over the time course and categorized into three primary clusters: genes upregulated early in the time course, genes upregulated during matrix formation, and genes downregulated during matrix formation. Genes were then grouped based on function and/or signaling pathways. Many gene groups known to be important in loading-induced bone formation were identified within the clusters, including AP-1-related genes in the early response cluster, matrix-related genes in the upregulated gene clusters, and Wnt/?-catenin signaling pathway inhibitors in the downregulated gene clusters. Several novel gene groups were identified as well, including chemokine-related genes which were upregulated early but downregulated later in the time course, solute carrier genes which were both up- and downregulated, and muscle-related genes which were primarily downregulated. Time Course with 11 time points, each plus & minus mechanical stimulation with 5 replicates per experimental group (except 12d group which has 4 replicates). Daily mechanical loading was applied to the forearm (24 hours between loading sessions), and ulnae were sampled at indicated time points (4h, 12h, 1d, 2d, 4d, 6d, 8d, 12d, 16d, 24d, or 32d).

Project description:In China, the incidence of fracture non-unions is relatively high. Impaired endochondral ossification may lead to nonunion due to improper mechanical loading. As a mechanosensitive ion channel protein, Piezo1mediates mechanical transduction and induces calcium inward flow. Our early study showed that the osteogenic and angiogenic capacity of chondrocytes was reduced, if Piezo1 gene was knocked out on chondrocytes. Moreover, the expression of mitochondrion translation related gene LARS2 was signaling increased. Therefore, we hypothesize that the mechanical loading may cause endochondral ossification through the Piezo1- LARS2 signaling pathway. We will use conditioned gene knockout mice and Peizo1 knockdown stable cell line to support the hypothesis. Our goals include investigating the changes of Piezo1 expression during endochondral ossification of femoral fracture healing in mice under mechanical loading; investigating the response of Piezo1 channels on chondrocytes to mechanical stimulation and its role and mechanism in regulating chondrocyte osteogenesis and angiogenesis, maintaining the normal mitochondrial function in vitro; analysing the key molecular and signal network downstream of Piezo1 through the multi-omics techniques; and exploring the response mechanism of Piezo1 under vibrating stimulus. This project aims to study the molecular mechanism of Piezo1-mediated force-biological information transition and its role in endochondral ossification. We hope it provides an effective intervention target for preventing and treating fracture nonunion.

Project description:To investigate potential mechanisms for the synergism of L-BAIBA and mechanical loading on bone formation, RNA Seq was performed on osteocyte-enriched cortical bone from mice treated with L-BAIBA and sub-optimal mechanical loading (8.25N) for either long-term (2 weeks L-BAIBA and loading) or short-term (5 days L-BAIBA and a single bout of mechanical loading).

Project description:Evidences indicate that mechanical loading plays an important role in osteoarthritis (OA) progression, while the specific pathological changes of the synovium under excessive mechanical loading are unclear. Results showed excessive mechanical loading caused pro-inflammatory of synovial macrophages, which has been confirmed to exists in OA. High Rapgef3 expression level was found in RNA sequencing of RAW246.7 subjected to 0.5Hz-20%-cyclic tensile strain. We verified this in the synovium of OA patients and DMM-OA mice. Interestingly, the Rapgef3 content of chondrocytes was very low. Primary chondrocytes treated with Rapgef3 alone did not show metabolic phenotype, but an OA phenotype appeared when treated with Rapgef3-stimulated macrophage culture supernatant. Mechanically, excessive mechanical loading activated p65-NF-κB pathway through Rapgef3, which promoted the inflammatory of macrophage, resulting in severe articular cartilage injury. Intra-articular Rapgef3 knockout reversed synovitis and cartilage degeneration, which might provide a therapeutic target for osteoarthritis.

Project description:Transient receptor potential vanilloid 4 (TRPV4) is a mechanosensitive ion channel highly expressed in chondrocytes that maintains cartilage homeostasis during development and throughout aging. Mutations in the channel cause a wide range of developmental disorders including skeletal dysplasias. The gain-of-function mutations V620I and T89I have been identified to lead to brachyolmia and metatropic dysplasia, respectively. Although it is known these mutations suppress hypertrophic differentiation, the mechanisms by which they alter chondrocyte response to mechanical loading remain to be elucidated. To determine the effect of these mutations on chondrocyte mechanotransduction, tissue-engineered cartilage was derived from differentiated CRISPR-edited human induced pluripotent stem cells harboring the moderate V620I or severe T89I TRPV4 mutations. Tissue-engineered hiPSC-derived cartilage was then subjected compressive mechanical loading at physiological levels, and RNA-sequencing was used to assess the transcriptomic signatures of wildtype and mutant tissue-engineered cartilage. Our results demonstrate that the V620I and T89I mutations lead to reduced mechanoresponsiveness, characterized by a lower number of differentially expressed genes and diminished activation of genes downstream of TRPV4 signaling and contributing towards the process of endochondral ossification. Changes in extracellular matrix production and organization were found to contribute towards the phenotype in V620I chondrocytes, whereas dysregulated retinoic acid signaling was linked to T89I, and disrupted proliferation was common to both. Our findings suggest that dysfunctional mechanotransduction arising due to the V620I and T89I mutations contribute to the developmental phenotypes observed in their respective skeletal dysplasias, introducing potential pharmacologic targets for these conditions.

Project description:The mechano-responsiveness of osteocytes is critical for maintaining bone health, yet the molecular mechanisms underlying this process remain poorly understood. Here, we investigate the impact of mechanical loading on transcriptional and epigenetic remodeling in osteocytes. Using MLO-Y4 cells, we subjected osteocytes to mechanical loading and profiled their transcriptome and histone modifications. Our findings revealed significant transcriptional and epigenetic changes, with NRF2 emerging as a key regulator. We demonstrated that mechanical loading stabilizes NRF2 protein levels and promotes its nucleus translocation, leading to enhanced genomic binding of NRF2 and activation of its target genes. Further analysis confirmed cell type-specific functions of NRF2, with distinct binding profiles in osteocytes compared to astrocytes. These results highlight the pivotal role of NRF2 in the mechano-responsiveness of osteocytes. Unlike pharmacologic agents that stabilize NRF2, mechanical loading uniquely promoted NRF2 nucleus translocation and transcriptional activity. This underscores the irreplaceable role of mechanical stimuli, such as exercise, in promoting bone health. This study advances our understanding of osteocyte mechanotransduction and identifies potential therapeutic interventions for bone diseases.
