Calcaneal tendon plasticity following gastrocnemius muscle injury in rat

ABSTRACT: We investigated calcaneal tendon extracellular matrix (ECM) remodeling after gastrocnemius muscle injury using a rat model. Wistar rats were randomly divided into four groups: control group (C; animals that were not exposed to muscle injury) and harvested at different time points post gastrocnemius muscle injury (3, 14 and 28 days) for gene expression analysis. qRT-PCR was performed using TaqMan Universal PCR Master Mix system (Applied Biosystems, CA, USA - Cat. 4304437).

Partial Tendon Injury at the Tendon-to-Bone Enthesis Activates Skeletal Stem Cells

Project description:Partial tendon-to-bone interface (TBI) injuries heal in a mechanically inferior manner and redevelop healthy uninjured tissue morphology. The origin of the cells involved in tendon-to-bone healing remains unknown. We employed a rigorous approach to evaluate if mouse skeletal stem cells (mSSC) play a role in tendon-to-bone healing after partial-injury. Using fluorescence-activated cell sorting we identified that found that they are present within the TBI. Using a TBI-injury rainbow lineage tracing mouse model, we demonstrated that injury-responsive cells within the TBI and calcaneus proliferate polyclonally following partial-tendon injury at the TBI. These injury-responsive clonal cells express skeletal marker SP7. We quantified the differences in mSCC frequency after TBI-injury and found that mSSC respond to injury with a higher frequency and have associated changes in gene expression, with the specific down-regulation of the TGFβ signaling pathway. Exogenous delivery of TGFβ after injury was found to reduce the mSSC response after injury. These findings suggest that mSSC may facilitate tendon-to-bone healing by downregulating TGFβ signaling within the mSSC niche.

Expression data from rat tendon fibroblasts treated with PRP and PPP.

Project description:Tendon is a hypocellular tissue that contains functional cable-like units of type I collagen responsible for the transmission of force from muscle to bone. In the setting of injury or disease, patients can develop chronic tendinopathies that are characterized by pain, loss of function and persistent inflammatory changes that are often difficult to treat. Platelet-rich plasma (PRP) has shown promise in the treatment of chronic tendinopathy, but little is known about the mechanisms by which PRP can improve tendon healing. PRP contains many different growth factors and cytokines, and since these proteins can both activate and inhibit various signaling pathways it has been challenging to determine precisely which signaling pathways and cellular responses are most important. Using state-of-the-art bioinformatics tools and genome wide-expression profiling, the purpose of this study was to determine the signaling pathways activated within cultured tendon fibroblasts in response to PRP treatment. Tendon fibroblasts were isolated from rat tail tendons and embedded in 3D type I collagen gels. Cells were treated with PRP or PPP for 24 hours, and total RNA was extracted for hybridization on Affymetrix arrays.

Nonwoven-based gelatin/polycaprolactone membrane loaded with ERK inhibitor U0126 for treatment of tendon defects

Project description:Background: Tendon is a major component of musculoskeletal system connecting the muscles to the bone. Tendon injuries are very common orthopedics problems leading to impeded motion. Up to now, there still lacks effective treatments for tendon diseases. Methods: Tendon stem/progenitor cells (TSPCs) were isolated from the patellar tendons of SD rats. The expression levels of genes were evaluated by quantitative RT-PCR. Immunohistochemistry staining was performed to confirm the presence of tendon markers in tendon tissues. Bioinformatics analysis of data acquired by RNA-seq was used to find out the differentially expressed genes. Rat patellar tendon injury model was used to evaluate the effect of U0126 on tendon injury healing. Biomechanical testing was applied to evaluate the mechanical properties of newly formed tendon tissues. Results: In this study, we have shown that ERK inhibitor U0126 rather PD98059 could effectively increase the expression of tendon-related genes and promote the tenogenesis of TSPCs in vitro. To explore the underlying mechanisms, RNA sequencing was performed to identify the molecular difference between U0126-treated and control TSPCs. The result showed that GDF6 was significantly increased by U0126, which is an important factor of the TGFβ superfamily regulating tendon development and tenogenesis. In addition, NBM (nonwoven-based gelatin/polycaprolactone membrane) which mimics the native microenvironment of the tendon tissue was used as an acellular scaffold to carry U0126. The results demonstrated that when NBM was used in combination with U0126, tendon healing was significantly promoted with better histological staining outcomes and mechanical properties. Conclusion: Taken together, we have found U0126 promoted tenogenesis in TSPCs through activating GDF6, and NBM loaded with U0126 significantly promoted tendon defect healing, which provides a new treatment for tendon injury.

RNA-seq analysis of Scx-lineage cell depletion to investigate tendon cell functions during flexor tendon healing

Project description:Little is understood about the roles of tendon cells during flexor tendon healing. To better understand tendon cell functions, the Scx-Cre mouse was crossed to the DTR mouse model to facilitate scleraxis lineage cell depletion prior to acute flexor tendon injury and repair. WT (cre-) and experimental (cre+) mice underwent complete transection and repair of the flexor digitorum longus tendon. Repaired tendons were harvested at 14 and 28 days post-repair for bulk RNA-Seq analysis to examine possible mechanisms driving differential healing due to Scx lineage cell depletion.

The subacromial bursa regulates rotator cuff tendon healing and is a target to augment tendon repair.

Project description:Rotator cuff injuries result in over 500,000 surgeries performed annually, an alarmingly high number of which fail. These procedures typically involve repair of the injured tendon and removal of the subacromial bursa. However, recent identification of a resident population of mesenchymal stem cells and inflammatory responsiveness of the bursa to tendinopathy indicate an unexplored biological role of the bursa in the context of rotator cuff disease. Therefore, we aimed to understand the clinical relevance of bursa-tendon crosstalk, characterize the biologic role of the bursa within the shoulder, and test the therapeutic potential for targeting the bursa. Proteomic profiling of patient bursa and tendon samples demonstrated that the bursa is activated by tendon injury. Using a rat to model rotator cuff injury and repair, tenotomy-activated bursa protected the intact tendon adjacent to the injured tendon and maintained the morphology of the underlying bone. The bursa also promoted an early inflammatory response in the injured tendon, initiating key players in wound healing. In vivo results were supported by targeted organ culture studies of the bursa. To examine the potential to therapeutically target the bursa, dexamethasone was delivered to the bursa, prompting a shift in cellular signaling towards modulating inflammation in the healing tendon. In conclusion, contrary to current clinical practice, the bursa should be retained to the greatest extent possible and provides a new therapeutically target for improving tendon healing outcomes.

Grafting induced pluripotent stem cells-derived tenocytes contribute to recovery of motor function after Achilles tendon rupture in rat

Project description:Self-renewal of tendons is rare since the vascular formation inside is extremely poor, thus reconstructive surgery using autologous tendons has been often taken place in the case of severe injury. However, the rate of re-injury after surgery is relatively high, and collection of autologous tendons leads muscle weakness which results in prolonged rehabilitation. Here, we introduce the induced pluripotent stem cells (iPSCs)-based technology aiming at developing a new therapeutic option after tendon injury. Firstly, we derived tenocytes from human iPSCs by recapitulating the normal progression of step-wise narrowing fate decisions in the vertebrate embryo. We used single-cell RNA sequencing to analyze the developmental trajectory of iPSCs-derived tenocytes. We then demonstrated that grafting iPSCs-tenocytes contributed to recovery of motor function after Achilles tendon injury in rat via engraftments and paracrine effects. The biomechanical strength of regenerated tendons recovered comparable to that of healthy tendons. We propose that the iPSCs-tenocytes will provide a novel therapeutic option in tendon injury.

Transcriptome analysis of tendon derived from Piezo1 mutant mice

Project description:Tendon tissue growth is promoted by mechanical stimulation, but the mechanism is not well understood. Piezo1, a mechanical stress-responsive channel receptor, is expressed in tendon cells, and the fact that tendon tissue growth was accelerated in Piezo1 gain of function mice suggests that Piezo1 plays an important role in tendon tissue growth. RNA-seq of tendon tissues from these mice showed increased expression of tendon-related genes and decreased expression of muscle-related genes, suggesting that Piezo1 may play a role in maintaining and enhancing the properties of tendon cells.
