Effect of Rubus idaeus Extracts in Murine Chondrocytes and Explants.

ABSTRACT: Osteoarthritis is characterized by cartilage loss resulting from the activation of chondrocytes associated with a synovial inflammation. Activated chondrocytes promote an increased secretion of matrix proteases and proinflammatory cytokines leading to cartilage breakdown. Since natural products possess anti-inflammatory properties, we investigated the direct effect of Rubus idaeus extracts (RIE) in chondrocyte metabolism and cartilage loss. The effect of RIE in chondrocyte metabolism was analyzed in murine primary chondrocytes and cartilage explants. We also assessed the contribution of RIE in an inflammation environment by culturing mice primary chondrocytes with the supernatant of Raw 264.7 macrophage-like cells primed with RIE. In primary chondrocytes, RIE diminished chondrocyte hypertrophy (Col10), while increasing the expression of catabolic genes (Mmp-3, Mmp-13) and reducing anabolic genes (Col2a1, Acan). In cartilage explants, Rubus idaeus prevented the loss of proteoglycan (14.84 ± 3.07% loss of proteoglycans with IL1 alone vs. 3.03 ± 1.86% with IL1 and 100 µg/mL of RIE), as well as the NITEGE neoepitope expression. RIE alone reduced the expression of Il1 and Il6 in macrophages, without changes in Tnf and Cox2 expression. The secretome of macrophages pre-treated with RIE and transferred to chondrocytes decreases the gene and protein expression of Mmp-3 and Cox2. In conclusion, these data suggest that RIE may protect from chondrocyte catabolism and cartilage loss in inflammatory conditions. Further evaluations are need before considering RIE as a candidate for the treatment for osteoarthritis.

Project description:BACKGROUND: Rapid development of highly saturated genetic maps aids molecular breeding, which can accelerate gain per breeding cycle in woody perennial plants such as Rubus idaeus (red raspberry). Recently, robust genotyping methods based on high-throughput sequencing were developed, which provide high marker density, but result in some genotype errors and a large number of missing genotype values. Imputation can reduce the number of missing values and can correct genotyping errors, but current methods of imputation require a reference genome and thus are not an option for most species. RESULTS: Genotyping by Sequencing (GBS) was used to produce highly saturated maps for a R. idaeus pseudo-testcross progeny. While low coverage and high variance in sequencing resulted in a large number of missing values for some individuals, a novel method of imputation based on maximum likelihood marker ordering from initial marker segregation overcame the challenge of missing values, and made map construction computationally tractable. The two resulting parental maps contained 4521 and 2391 molecular markers spanning 462.7 and 376.6 cM respectively over seven linkage groups. Detection of precise genomic regions with segregation distortion was possible because of map saturation. Microsatellites (SSRs) linked these results to published maps for cross-validation and map comparison. CONCLUSIONS: GBS together with genome-independent imputation provides a rapid method for genetic map construction in any pseudo-testcross progeny. Our method of imputation estimates the correct genotype call of missing values and corrects genotyping errors that lead to inflated map size and reduced precision in marker placement. Comparison of SSRs to published R. idaeus maps showed that the linkage maps constructed with GBS and our method of imputation were robust, and marker positioning reliable. The high marker density allowed identification of genomic regions with segregation distortion in R. idaeus, which may help to identify deleterious alleles that are the basis of inbreeding depression in the species.
