Structure-function Relationships in Human Tendons: Interfascicular Matrix Specialisation in the Achilles Tendon C4PR_LIV

Project description:Tendon is a highly aligned connective tissue, in which the macro-structure consists of collagen-rich fascicles surrounded by interfascicular matrix (IFM). In a series of recent studies in equine tissue, we have demonstrated specialisation of tendon composition, structure and mechanics to achieve the tendon’s functional requirements, specifically reporting extensive specialisation of the IFM region in the energy storing superficial digital flexor tendon. We have also demonstrated loss of functional specialisms with ageing, leading to a hypothesised new paradigm for tendinopathy, focused on the importance of the IFM. However, to date, there have been no studies focused on structure-function specialisation or the IFM in functionally distinct human tendons. Here, we compare the positional anterior tibialis tendon and energy storing Achilles tendon, performing a detailed analysis of the composition and mechanical properties of both fascicle and IFM regions, to test the hypothesis that the IFM in the energy storing Achilles tendon has specialised composition and mechanical properties, and that these specialisations are lost with ageing. We demonstrate that the IFM is specialised in the energy storing Achilles tendon, with greater elasticity and fatigue resistance than in the positional anterior tibialis tendon. While there were few age-related alterations in mechanics, we did identify age-related alterations in the IFM proteome of the Achilles tendon specifically, which is predicted to be regulated by TGF-beta signalling and may be responsible for the trend towards decreased fatigue resistance observed in the Achilles IFM with ageing.

RNA Sequencing Facilitates Quantitative Analysis of Cont/Dicer KO/Scx HT mice Achilles Tendon Transcriptome

Project description:To investigate which mRNA and miRNA are involved in Dicer KO mouse tendon hypoplasticity, we performed RNA-seq and small RNA-seq using RNA from Achilles tendon of Cont (Dicer f/f), Scx HT (ScxCre/+ Knock In:Dicer +/+) and Dicer KO (ScxCre/+ Knock In:Dicer f/f) mice at 4 weeks of age. Achilles tendon from 4-week-old female mice was harvested, RNA was isolated using an RNA extraction kit. RNA libraries were generated and sequenced by K. K. DNAFORM (Tokyo, Japan). The libraries were sequenced by Illumina HISEQ4000 using Illumina provided protocol. Differential gene expression was analyzed with R Bioconductor DESeq2. We found that a large portion of tendon-fibroblast characteristic genes was downregulated in Dicer KO mice Achilles tendon compared to Cont and Scx HT.

scRNA-seq of Achilles tendons from Prg4-CreERT2;R26-tdTomato ATP mice

Project description:Ectopic endochondral ossification in the tendon/ligament is caused by repetitive mechanical overload or inflammation. Tendon stem/progenitor cells (TSPCs) contribute to tissue repair and lubrication by producing proteoglycan 4 (Prg4). However, the mechanisms of ectopic ossification and association of TSPCs are not yet known. Here, we investigated the characteristics of Prg4-positive (+) cells and identified that R-spondin 2 (RSPO2), a WNT activator, is specifically expressed in a distinct Prg4+ TSPC cluster. The Rspo2+ cluster was characterized as mostly undifferentiated, and RSPO2 overexpression suppressed ectopic ossification in a mouse Achilles tendon puncture model via chondrogenic differentiation suppression. RSPO2 expression levels in patients with ossification of the posterior longitudinal ligament were lower than those in spondylosis patients, and RSPO2 protein suppressed chondrogenic differentiation of human ligament cells. RSPO2 was induced by inflammatory stimulation and mechanical loading via nuclear factor-kappa B (NF-κB). Rspo2+ cells may contribute to tendon/ligament homeostasis by suppressing chondrogenic differentiation.

Expression data from post-natal rat Achilles tendons

Project description:We have compared the gene expression profile of post-natal 1 day and 7 day rat Achilles tendons. Post-natal 1 day and 7 day rat Achilles tendons were collected. Each sample contains at least two individuals. Total RNA was extracted and fragmented biotin-tagged cRNA was hybridized to Rat Genome 230 2.0 Array.

Effects of running for 1h on gene expression in Achilles tendon cells of SD rats

Project description:The Achilles tendon is the thickest tendon in the human body, and Achilles tendinopathy is its most prevalent disorder, often considered a consequence of overuse. While disruption to the collagen fibers represents a significant manifestation of Achilles tendinopathy, strikingly little is known about the mechanisms by which healthy tendon accumulates damage in vivo.As existing studies of tendon biomechanics and mechanobiology predominantly relied on in vitro or ex vivo experiments on isolated tissues, it is still largely unknown whether and how disruptions occur to the collagen molecules in healthy Achilles tendons following physiological activities. We reported the first RNA-seq analysis reflecting transcriptome changes in healthy rat Achilles tendons following running, providing a resource for future investigations in tendon mechanobiology and sports medicine.

Regional transcriptomics and mechanical properties of rat Achilles tendons

Project description:The transcriptome of different tendons varies based on anatomical location and is likely influenced by the biomechanical loading environment. While differences in biologic and mechanical properties of whole tendons have been assessed, less is understood about differences within a tendon along its proximal-distal axis. Therefore, our objective was to determine the characteristics of and relationship between the transcriptomes and mechanical properties of a single tendon.

Gene expression in Achilles tendon cells of SD rats after 1 h of running followed by 12 h of rest

Project description:Achilles tendinopathy is often thought to be a consequence of overuse of the Cells within the Achilles tendon of healthy rats undergo a series of changes following physiologic levels of mechanical stimulation after running, and we further explored the transcriptome changes in Achilles tendon cells during post-exercise recovery. Our current experiment reveals RNA-seq analysis of the transcriptome of the rat Achilles tendon after 12 hours of rest following running.
