TrkAWT and TrkAF592A animals at 14 d post-operative tendon injury for scRNA-Seq.

ABSTRACT: Peripheral afferent neurons terminate at the surfaces of tendons, yet their role after injury beyond nociceptive functions remain unclear. Using transgenic animal models, sensory neurons were found to sprout after Achilles tendon injury in domains of Nerve growth factor (NGF) expression. Conditional deletion of Ngf in either myeloid or mesenchymal cell types led to tendon repair defects – findings phenocopied by inactivation of TrkA (Tropomyosin receptor kinase A) using a knockin mouse model. We sought to identify the signals modulated with neural TrkA inhibition. A combination of single cell and spatial transcriptomic analysis was performed on the Achilles injury site of TrkAF592A animals and compared them to TrkAWT.

Effect of DRG conditioned media on Tppp3+ tendon cells

Project description:Here, we investigated the effect of conditioned media (CM) obtained from cultured mouse DRG neurons on Tppp3+ cells, mainly on proliferation and differentiation potential. Peripheral afferent neurons terminate at the surfaces of tendons, yet their role after injury beyond nociceptive functions remain unclear. Using transgenic animal models, sensory neurons were found to sprout after Achilles tendon injury in domains of Nerve growth factor (NGF) expression. Conditional deletion of Ngf in either myeloid or mesenchymal cell types led to tendon repair defects – findings phenocopied by inactivation of TrkA (Tropomyosin receptor kinase A) using a knockin mouse model. A combination of spatial and single cell transcriptomics revealed dysregulated inflammatory and TGF signaling upon lack of neural input. Utilizing sural nerve transection in reporter animals, we identified that neural input is required for proper expansion of Tppp3+ tendon sheath progenitor cells (TSPCs) after injury, and in vitro approaches implicated TGF signaling activation in Tppp3+ TSPC neural response. Finally, in a translational approach, activation of TrkA+ sensory neurons using a partial agonist led to a significant increase in TGF signaling, TSPC expansion, and improved tendon repair. Collectively, these data implicate peripheral afferent neural networks in the coordinated acute tendon injury response, and identify candidate molecules to speed the reparative process.

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.

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.

Transcription profiling of mouse Bax null versus NGF-Bax double null animals

Project description:We report that developmental competition between sympathetic neurons for survival is critically dependent on a sensitization process initiated by target innervation and mediated by a series of feedback loops. Target-derived nerve growth factor (NGF) promoted expression of its receptor TrkA in neurons and prolonged TrkA-mediated signals. NGF also controlled expression of brain derived neurotrophic factor (BDNF) and neurotrophin-4 (NT4), which, through the receptor p75, can kill neighboring neurons with low retrograde NGFâ??TrkA signaling whereas neurons with high NGFâ??TrkA signaling are protected. Perturbation of any of these feedback loops disrupts the dynamics of competition. We suggest that three target-initiated events are essential for rapid and robust competition between neurons: sensitization, paracrine apoptotic signaling, and protection from such effects. Experiment Overall Design: This experiment examine gene expression differences in superior cervical ganglia fro P0 bax null versus NGF-Bax double null animals. The Bax genotype was used in order to prevent the neuronal cell death normally observed in the NGF null animal.

Tenomodulin prevents trauma-induced heterotopic ossification in tendon

Project description:We have reported that loss of Tnmd leads to inferior early tendon repair characterized by fibrovascular scaring and therefore hypothesized that its lack will persistently cause deficient repair during later stages. Tnmd knockout (Tnmd-/-) and wild-type (WT) animals were subjected to complete Achilles tendon surgical transection followed by end-to-end suture. Lineage tracing revealed a reduction in tendon-lineage cells marked by ScleraxisGFP, but an increase in alpha smooth muscle actin myofibroblasts in Tnmd-/- tendon scars. At the proliferative stage, more pro-inflammatory M1 macrophages and larger collagen II cartilaginous template were detected in this group. At the remodeling stage, histological scoring revealed lower repair quality in the injured Tnmd-/- tendons, which was coupled with higher HO quantified by micro-CT. Tendon biomechanical properties were compromised in both groups upon injury, however we identified an abnormal stiffening of non-injured Tnmd-/- tendons, which possessed higher static and dynamic E-moduli. Pathologically thicker and abnormally shaped collagen fibrils were observed by TEM in Tnmd-/- tendons and this together with augmented HO resulted in diminished running capacity of Tnmd-/- mice. These novel findings demonstrate that Tnmd plays a protecting role against trauma-induced endochondral HO and can inspire the generation of novel therapeutics to accelerate repair.

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.
