Hypertrophic chondrocytes and osteogenesis in P6 mouse tibia
Ontology highlight
ABSTRACT: It has been shown that hypertrophic chondrocyte (HC) can become osteoblast, contributing to the formation of trabecular bone and endosteum. However, it is unclear what genes regulate the process of differentiation from chondrocyte to osteoblast. Conditional knock-out of Irx 3 and Irx5 in HCs can reduce the trabecular bone amount and there is also some evidence that ablation of Irx3 and Irx5 in HCs can promote bone marrow adipogenesis. In order to investigate the gene regulatory network with different dosage of Irx3/5 in HC descendants (i.e. in Loss-of-Function mutant and heterozygous control), we collected HC descendant cells from proximal tibia of mice at postnatal day 6 and performed single cell RNA seq with 10X Genomics System to profile the gene expression pattern in HC descendants.
