Effect of dynamic compression on meniscus tissue explants in the presence and absence of IL-1

ABSTRACT: Meniscus injuries are highly prevalent and are linked to the development of post-traumatic osteoarthritis (PTOA). The inflammatory cytokine IL-1 is elevated in synovial fluid following knee injuries, causes degradation of meniscus tissue, and inhibits meniscus repair. Dynamic mechanical compression of meniscus tissue has been shown to improve integrative repair in the presence of IL-1; however, there remains a dearth of knowledge on global effects of loading on meniscus cell phenotype and transcriptomic profiles. In this study, we performed mRNA-Seq on meniscus tissue explants from inner and outer zone regions of porcine menisci subjected to dynamic compression in the presence and absence of IL-1 to identify cellular responses to mechanical load, identify differences in response to load based on zonal characteristics, and identify IL-1 induced inflammatory responses modulated by load.

Effect of cyclic tensile stretch on meniscus cells in the presence and absence of IL-1

Project description:Meniscus injuries are highly prevalent and are linked to the development of post-traumatic osteoarthritis (PTOA). The inflammatory cytokine IL-1 is elevated in synovial fluid following knee injuries, causes degradation of meniscus tissue, and inhibits meniscus repair. Cyclic tensile stretch has been shown to modulate the expression of pro-inflammatory cytokines and degradative enzymes induced by IL-1; however, there remains a dearth of knowledge on global effects of loading on meniscus cell phenotype and transcriptomic profiles. In this study, we performed mRNA-Seq on meniscus cells isolated from inner and outer zone regions of porcine menisci subjected to cyclic tensile strain in the presence and absence of IL-1 to identify cellular responses to mechanical load, identify differences in response to load based on zonal characteristics, and identify IL-1 induced inflammatory responses modulated by load.

Human engineered meniscus transcriptome after short-term combined hypoxia and dynamic compression

Project description:This study investigates the transcriptome response of meniscus fibrochondrocytes (MFCs) to the low oxygen and mechanical loading signals experienced in the knee joint using a model system. We hypothesized that short term exposure to the combined treatment would promote a matrix-forming phenotype supportive of inner meniscus tissue formation. Human MFCs on a collagen scaffold were stimulated to form fibrocartilage over 6weeks under normoxic (NRX, 20% O2) conditions with supplemented TGF -β3. Tissues experienced a delayed 24h hypoxia treatment (HYP, 3% O2) and then 5min of dynamic compression (DC) between 30 and 40% strain. Delayed HYP induced an anabolic and anti-catabolic expression profile for hyaline cartilage matrix markers, while DC induced an inflammatory matrix remodeling response along with upregulation of both SOX9 and COL1A1. There were 41 genes regulated by both HYP and DC. Overall, the combined treatment supported a unique gene expression profile favouring the hyaline cartilage aspect of inner meniscus matrix and matrix remodeling.

ZAKb is a cellular compression sensor that mediates hypertrophic signaling in skeletal muscle

Project description:Mechanosensing is required for the senses of touch and hearing, and impacts on cellular processes such as cell differentiation, migration, invasion and tissue homeostasis. Mechanical inputs give rise to p38- and JNK-signaling, which mediates adaptive physiological responses in various tissues. In muscle, fiber contraction-induced p38 and JNK signaling ensures adaptation to exercise, muscle repair and hypertrophy. However, the mechanism by which muscle fibers sense mechanical load to activate this signaling, as well as the physiological roles of mechanical stress sensing more broadly, have remained elusive. Here, we show that the upstream MAP3K ZAK is a sensor of cellular compression induced by osmotic shock and cyclic compression in vitro, and muscle contraction in vivo. This function relies on ZAK’s ability to recognize stress fibers in cells and the corresponding Z-discs in muscle fibers, when under tension. Consequently, ZAK-deficient mice present with skeletal muscle defects characterized by fibers with centralized nuclei and progressive adaptation towards a slower myosin profile. Our results highlight how cells in general sense mechanical compressive load, and how mechanical forces generated during muscle contraction are translated into MAP kinase signaling.

proteomic profiling of human meniscus

Project description:There is a need to clarify the role of the meniscus in knee OA which may be aided by the identification of biomarkers that reflect the molecular events involved in the tissue degradation. This is of particular importance in the early stages of the degenerative processes, a crucial phase when it might still be possible to interfere with disease progression before tearing and critical loss of meniscal function occurs. One way to achieve this goal is exploratory proteomics by mass spectrometry (MS), which has the potential to analyse the proteome of complex samples. Thus, our aim was to gain new knowledge about the molecular processes within the human meniscus by comparing the proteomic profiles of both the lateral and medial meniscus from healthy controls, subjects with mild signs of joint degeneration, and patients with end-stage knee OA, using a non-targeted MS approach operating in data-independent acquisition (DIA) mode. For the research purpose six groups were established: medial and lateral menisci from control donors (n=12), medial and lateral menisci from donors with mild signs of joint degeneration (n=13) and medial and lateral menisci from end-stage knee OA patients (n=12).

Transcriptomic analyses of joint tissues during osteoarthritis development in a rat model reveal dysregulated mechanotransduction and extracellular matrix pathways

Project description:Transcriptomic changes in joint tissues during the development of osteoarthritis (OA) are of interest for the discovery of biomarkers and mechanisms of disease. The objective of this study was to use the rat medial meniscus transection (MMT) model to discover stage and tissue-specific transcriptomic changes. Sham or MMT surgeries were performed in mature rats. Cartilage, menisci and synovium were scored for histopathological changes at 2, 4 and 6 weeks post-surgery and processed for RNA-sequencing. Differentially expressed genes (DEG) were used to identify pathways and mechanisms. Published transcriptomic datasets from animal models and human OA were used to confirm and extend present findings. The total number of DEGs was already high at 2 weeks (723 in meniscus), followed by cartilage (259) and synovium (42) and declined to varying degrees in meniscus and synovium but increased in cartilage at 6 weeks. The most upregulated genes included tenascins. The 'response to mechanical stimulus' and extracellular matrix-related pathways were enriched in both cartilage and meniscus. Pathways that were enriched in synovium at 4 weeks indicate processes related to synovial hyperplasia and fibrosis. Synovium also showed upregulation of IL-11 and several MMPs. The mechanical stimulus pathway included upregulation of the mechanoreceptors PIEZO1, PIEZO2 and TRPV4 and nerve growth factor. Analysis of data from prior RNA-sequencing studies of animal models and human OA support these findings. These results indicate several shared pathways that are affected during OA in cartilage and meniscus and support the role of mechanotransduction and other pathways in OA pathogenesis.

Mechano-Hypoxia Conditioning of Engineered Human Meniscus

Project description:Meniscus fibrochondrocytes (MFCs) experience simultaneous hypoxia and mechanical loading in the knee, conditions that have promising applications in human meniscus tissue engineering. We hypothesized that “mechano-hypoxia conditioning,” using mechanical loading such as dynamic compression (DC) and cyclic hydrostatic pressure (CHP), would enhance development of human meniscus fibrocartilage extracellular matrix in vitro. MFCs from inner human meniscus surgical discards were pre-cultured on porous type I collagen scaffolds with TGF-β3 supplementation to form baseline tissues with newly-formed matrix. They were then treated with DC or CHP under hypoxia (HYP, 3% O2) for 5 days. DC was the more effective load regime, and combined HYP/DC enhanced gene expression of fibrocartilage precursors. The individual treatments of DC and HYP regulated thousands of genes and combined in an overwhelmingly additive rather than synergistic manner. Baseline tissues were then treated with a short course of DC (5 vs 60 minutes, 10-20% vs 30-40% strain) with different pre-culture durations (3 vs 6 weeks). Longer courses of loading had diminishing returns in terms of gene regulation. There was a dose-effect for higher DC strains, whereas outcomes were mixed for different MFC donors in pre-culture durations. Finally, baseline tissues were conditioned for 3 weeks with mechano-hypoxia conditioning to assess mechanical and protein-level outcomes. There were 1.8 to 5.1-fold gains in the dynamic modulus relative to baseline in HYP/DC, but matrix outcomes were equal or inferior to static controls. Long-term mechano-hypoxia conditioning was effective in suppressing hypertrophic markers (e.g., COL10A1 10-fold suppression vs static/normoxia). Applied appropriately, mechano-hypoxia conditioning can support meniscus fibrocartilage development in vitro and may be useful as a strategy for developing non-hypertrophic articular cartilage using mesenchymal stem cells.

Volumetric compression by heterogeneous scaffold embedding promotes cerebral organoid growth and maturation

Project description:While biochemical regulation has been extensively studied in cerebral organoid modeling protocols, the role of mechano-regulation in directing stem cell fate and organoid development has been relatively unexplored. Volumetric compression, a key aspect of natural brain development, is known to influence neuronal differentiation. However, stiff interpenetrating network compression fails to accurately replicate the dynamic organoid development observed in nature. In this study, we present a novel method of heterogeneous embedding using an alginate-shell-Matrigel-core system. This approach allows for cell-Matrigel remodeling by the inner layer and provides moderate normal compression through the soft alginate outer layer. Our results show significant improvements in cell proliferation and maturation of cerebral organoids, as evidenced by increased expression of neuronal markers such as neurofilament (NF) and microtubule-associated protein 2 (MAP2). Compared to non-alginate embedding and alginate compression groups, volume growth remains unimpeded. Our findings demonstrate the successful mechanical regulation of cerebral organoids, which not only mimics the mechanical environment of brain development but also exhibits a regular growth profile with enhanced maturation. These results highlight the importance and potential practical applications of mechano-regulation in the establishment of brain organoids.
