Marine Collagen Hydrolysates Downregulate the Synthesis of Pro-Catabolic and Pro-Inflammatory Markers of Osteoarthritis and Favor Collagen Production and Metabolic Activity in Equine Articular Chondrocyte Organoids.

ABSTRACT: Articular cartilage experiences mechanical constraints leading to chondral defects that inevitably evolve into osteoarthritis (OA), because cartilage has poor intrinsic repair capacity. Although OA is an incurable degenerative disease, several dietary supplements may help improve OA outcomes. In this study, we investigated the effects of Dielen^® hydrolyzed fish collagens from skin (Promerim^®30 and Promerim^®60) and cartilage (Promerim^®40) to analyze the phenotype and metabolism of equine articular chondrocytes (eACs) cultured as organoids. Here, our findings demonstrated the absence of cytotoxicity and the beneficial effect of Promerim^® hydrolysates on eAC metabolic activity under physioxia; further, Promerim^®30 also delayed eAC senescence. To assess the effect of Promerim^® in a cartilage-like tissue, eACs were cultured as organoids under hypoxia with or without BMP-2 and/or IL-1?. In some instances, alone or in the presence of IL-1?, Promerim^®30 and Promerim^®40 increased protein synthesis of collagen types I and II, while decreasing transcript levels of proteases involved in OA pathogenesis, namely Htra1, and the metalloproteinases Mmp1-3, Adamts5, and Cox2. Both Promerim^® hydrolysates also decreased Htra1 protein amounts, particularly in inflammatory conditions. The effect of Promerim^® was enhanced under inflammatory conditions, possibly due to a decrease in the synthesis of inflammation-associated molecules. Finally, Promerim^® favored in vitro repair in a scratch wound assay through an increase in cell proliferation or migration. Altogether, these data show that Promerim^®30 and 40 hold promise as dietary supplements to relieve OA symptoms in patients and to delay OA progression.

Project description:Cartilage is a non-innervated and non-vascularized tissue. It is composed of one main cell type, the chondrocyte, which governs homeostasis within the cartilage tissue, but has low metabolic activity. Articular cartilage undergoes substantial stresses that lead to chondral defects, and inevitably osteoarthritis (OA) due to the low intrinsic repair capacity of cartilage. OA remains an incurable degenerative disease. In this context, several dietary supplements have shown promising results, notably in the relief of OA symptoms. In this study, we investigated the effects of collagen hydrolysates derived from fish skin (Promerim®30 and Promerim®60) and fish cartilage (Promerim®40) on the phenotype and metabolism of human articular chondrocytes (HACs). First, we demonstrated the safety of Promerim® hydrolysates on HACs cultured in monolayers. Then we showed that, Promerim® hydrolysates can increase the HAC viability and proliferation, while decreasing HAC SA-β-galactosidase activity. To evaluate the effect of Promerim® on a more relevant model of culture, HAC were cultured as organoids in the presence of Promerim® hydrolysates with or without IL-1β to mimic an OA environment. In such conditions, Promerim® hydrolysates led to a decrease in the transcript levels of some proteases that play a major role in the development of OA, such as Htra1 and metalloproteinase-1. Promerim® hydrolysates downregulated HtrA1 protein expression. In contrast, the treatment of cartilage organoids with Promerim® hydrolysates increased the neosynthesis of type I collagen (Promerim®30, 40 and 60) and type II collagen isoforms (Promerim®30 and 40), the latter being the major characteristic component of the cartilage extracellular matrix. Altogether, our results demonstrate that the use of Promerim® hydrolysates hold promise as complementary dietary supplements in combination with the current classical treatments or as a preventive therapy to delay the occurrence of OA in humans.

Project description:During the development of the appendicular skeleton, the cartilaginous templates undergo hypertrophic differentiation and remodels into bone, except for the cartilage most adjacent to joint cavities where hypertrophic differentiation and endochondral bone formation are prevented, and chondrocytes instead form articular cartilage. The mechanisms that prevent hypertrophic differentiation and endochondral bone formation of the articular cartilage have not been elucidated. To explore the role of the synovial microenvironment in chondrocyte differentiation, osteochondral allografts consisting of articular cartilage, epiphyseal bone, and growth plate cartilage from distal femoral epiphyses of inbred Lewis rats expressing enhanced green fluorescent protein from a ubiquitous promoter were transplanted either in inverted or original (control) orientation to matching sites in wildtype littermates, thereby allowing for tracing of transplanted cells and their progenies. We found that no hypertrophic differentiation occurred in the growth plate cartilage ectopically placed at the joint surface. Instead, the transplanted growth plate cartilage, with time, remodeled into articular cartilage. This finding suggests that the microenvironment at the articular surface inhibits hypertrophic differentiation and supports articular cartilage formation. To explore this hypothesis, rat chondrocyte pellets were cultured with and without synoviocyte-conditioned media. Consistent with the hypothesis, hypertrophic differentiation was inhibited and expression of the articular surface marker lubricin (Prg4) was dramatically induced when chondrocyte pellets were exposed to synovium- or synoviocyte-conditioned media, but not to chondrocyte- or osteoblast-conditioned media. Taken together, we present evidence for a novel mechanism by which synoviocytes, through the secretion of a factor or factors, act directly on chondrocytes to inhibit hypertrophic differentiation and endochondral bone formation and promote articular cartilage formation. This mechanism may have important implications for articular cartilage development, maintenance, and regeneration.
