Project description:Osteoarthritis (OA) is the most common form of arthritis worldwide. It is a complex disease affecting the whole joint but is generally characterized by progressive degradation of articular cartilage. Recent genome-wide association screens have implicated distinct DNA methylation signatures in OA patients. We show that the de novo DNA methyltransferase (Dnmt) 3b, but not Dnmt3a, is present in healthy murine and human articular chondrocytes and expression decreases in OA mouse models and in chondrocytes from human OA patients. Targeted deletion of Dnmt3b in murine articular chondrocytes results in an early onset and progressive post-natal OA-like pathology. RNA-seq and MethylC-seq analyses of Dnmt3b loss-of-function chondrocytes shows that cellular metabolic processes are affected. Specifically, TCA metabolites and mitochondrial respiration are elevated. Importantly, a chondroprotective effect was found following Dnmt3b gain-of-function in murine articular chondrocytes in vitro and in vivo. This study shows that Dnmt3b plays a significant role in regulating post-natal articular cartilage homeostasis. Cellular pathways regulated by Dnmt3b in chondrocytes may provide novel targets for therapeutic approaches to treat OA.

Project description:BACKGROUND: During osteoarthritis (OA), articular chondrocytes undergo phenotypic changes that resemble developmental patterns characteristic of growth plate chondrocytes. These phenotypic alterations lead to a hypertrophy-like phenotype characterized by altered production of extracellular matrix constituents and increased collagenase activity, which in turn results in cartilage destruction in OA disease. PURPOSE: To identify transcriptomic and epigenomic changes in murine primary articular chondrocytes undergoing hypertrophy-like differentiation in vitro. METHODS: We paired an in vitro 3D/pellet culture system that mimics chondrocyte hypertrophy with RNA sequencing (RNA-Seq) and enhanced reduced representation of bisulfite sequencing (ERRBS). RESULTS: We identified hypertrophy-associated changes in DNA methylation patterns in vitro. Integration of RNA-Seq and ERRBS datasets identified associations between changes in methylation and gene expression. CONCLUSION: Our integrative analyses showed that hypertrophic differentiation of articular chondrocytes is accompanied by transcriptomic and epigenomic changes in vitro.

Project description:Osteoarthritis (OA) is a joint condition associated with articular cartilage loss, low-grade synovitis and alterations in subchondral bone and periarticular tissues. In OA, the interest for mesenchymal stem cell (MSC)-EV therapeutic applications has increased. We have assessed the immunomodulary properties of adipose-derived MSCs (AD-MSCs) microvesicles (MV) and exosomes (EX) in interleukin (IL)-1β stimulated OA chondrocytes and cartilage explants and characterized them by mass spectrometry in order to uncover novel mediators in (AD-MSC)-EV immunomodulation.

Project description:As the unique cell type in articular cartilage, chondrocyte senescence is a crucial cellular event contributing to osteoarthritis development. Here we show that clathrin-mediated endocytosis and activation of Notch signaling promotes chondrocyte senescence and osteoarthritis development, which is negatively regulated by myosin light chain 3. Myosin light chain 3 (MYL3) protein levels decline sharply in senescent chondrocytes of cartilages from model mice and osteoarthritis (OA) patients. Conditional deletion of Myl3 in chondrocytes significantly promoted, whereas intra-articular injection of adeno-associated virus overexpressing MYL3 delayed, OA progression in male mice. MYL3 deficiency led to enhanced clathrin-mediated endocytosis by promoting the interaction between myosin VI and clathrin, further inducing the internalization of Notch and resulting in activation of Notch signaling in chondrocytes. Pharmacologic blockade of clathrin-mediated endocytosis-Notch signaling prevented MYL3 loss-induced chondrocyte senescence and alleviated OA progression in mice. Our results establish a previously unknown mechanism essential for cellular senescence and provide a potential therapeutic direction for OA.

Project description:Osteoarthritis (OA) is an aging-associated disease of diarthrodial joints that involves changes in the bone, cartilage and soft tissue. Chondrocytes are the only cell type in cartilage and play a pivotal role in tissue homeostasis and cartilage remodeling in OA. Age- or OA-dependent metabolic changes affecting extracelluar matrix composition as well as variations in the response to cytokines and growth factors have been investigated in human chondrocytes. However, the molecular mechanisms causing age-dependent variation of the chondrocyte phenotype are poorly characterized. The proinflammatory mediator nitric oxide (NO) is produced when chondrocytes are exposed to cytokines such as IL-1. NO affects the energy metabolism of cells through interfering with mitochondrial respiration and glycolysis and has been implicated in extracellular matrix synthesis and degradation and chondrocyte death. NO may contribute to the aging process by compromising the energy balance ! in chondrocytes through the generation of an oxidizing environment and this may in turn affect matrix gene expression. In human chondrocytes NO effects on the expression of extacelluar matrix genes or genes related to matrix structure have not been addressed comprehensively. In chondrocytes NO has profound effects on extracellular matrix: Interleukin-1 induced the production of nitric oxide in human articular chondrocytes in alginate culture and simultaneously inhibited the biosynthesis of proteoglycans. NG-monomethyl-L-arginine (L-NMMA) inhibited nitric oxide formation and the suppression of proteoglycan synthesis. The nitric oxide donor, S-nitrosyl-acetyl-D,L- penicillamine (SNAP) also inhibited proteoglycan biosynthesis suggesting that interleukin-1 suppresses matrix synthesis through mechanisms involving the production of NO. Slices of rabbit articular cartilage synthesized large quantities of nitric oxide (NO) following exposure to IL-1 and strongly suppressed the incorporation of 35SO4 into the glycosaminoglycans (GAGs) of cartilage proteoglycans. Simultaneous treatment of cartilage fragments with IL-1 and L-NMMA inhibited NO synthesis in response to IL-1 and restored proteoglycan synthesis. SNAP reversibly mimicked the effect! of IL-1 on proteoglycan synthesis. These data suggest that endogenously synthesized NO is the mediator which reduces cartilage proteoglycan synthesis in response to cytokines such as IL-1. Aggrecan and type II collagen synthesis are also affected by NO. Our hypothesis entails that in human chondrocytes endogenous NO modulates the expression of matrix genes as well as enzymes involved in extracellular matrix remodelling. Experimental approach: In this experiment cultured chondrocytes from 3 donors was left unstimulated (control) or stimulated with IL-1, L-NMMA or IL-1 + L-NMMA for a period of 8 days in order to achieve sufficiently high levels of intracellular NO and stable expression of a subset of genes. Total RNA was isolated using the Trizol procedure. Gene expression will be probed using the Glycov2 chip. In this study cultured chondrocytes from three donors will either be left unstimulated (control) or stimulated with IL-1, L-NMMA or IL-1 L-NMMA for a period of 8 days in order to achieve sufficiently high levels of intracellular NO and stable expression of a subset of genes. 12 Samples were hybridized and analyzed using the GLYCOv2 array, three from each class.

Project description:Objective: We used the destabilization of the medial meniscus (DMM) model to identify temporal changes in DNA methylation patterns associated with structural and transcriptomic changes in cartilage during osteoarthritis (OA) progression. Methods: RNA sequencing (RNAseq) and Reduced Representation Oxidative Bisulfite Sequencing (RRoxBS) analyses were done in total RNA and DNA obtained from micro-dissected cartilage at 4 and 12 weeks after DMM surgery. Murine and human primary chondrocytes were used to evaluate the cytokine- and methylation-dependent changes in the expression of Lrrc15, and its contribution to IL-1beta-induced changes in chondrocytes. Results: We identified time-dependent alterations in epigenomic patterns in cartilage after DMM, with significant changes in 5mC and 5hmC methylation comparing samples retrieved at 4 and 12 weeks after surgery. Integration of RNAseq and RRoxBS datasets identified Lrrc15 as a hypomethylated gene with increased expression at 4 weeks after surgery. We confirmed LRRC15 immunostaining in OA cartilage, and experiments in human and murine primary chondrocytes showed that the expression of Lrrc15 is DNA methylation-dependent and induced by IL1beta and TNFalfa in vitro. Knockdown experiments showed that Lrrc15 contributes to the IL1beta-driven expression of catabolic genes relevant to OA, including Mmp13. Significance: Our integrative analyses showed that the structural progression of OA is accompanied by transcriptomic and dynamic epigenomic changes in articular cartilage. We found that Lrrc15 is differentially methylated and expressed in OA cartilage, and that it may contribute to the cytokine-driven responses of OA chondrocytes. A better understanding of the role of Lrrc15 in cartilage homeostasis and osteoarthritis may help us uncover targets with therapeutic potential.

Project description:We used chondrocytes exposed to osteoarthritic synovial fluid as a chronic disease model to study the effects of a chronic disease microenvironment on 2’-O-me rRNA heterogeneity. Human non-OA human articular chondrocytes (5 individual donors) were cultured either in the presence of OA-SF (20% (v/v), pool of 14 donors) or in a normal culture medium and were refreshed every other day. After 14 days of culture, RNA was isolated for 2’-O-methylation profiling of ribosomal RNAs.

Project description:To investigate skin aging is an important driver of experimental osteoarthritis(OA) progression in mice via enhanced IL-36 receptor (IL-36R) signaling. The supernatants from the co-culture of UV-aged mouse primary keratinocytes with synovial fibroblasts were collected to induce mouse primary articular chondrocytes (CCs) to become aging SNL CCs. On this basis, Spesolimab (100ng/ml) was added to culture aging SNL CCs to study the drug's effect on OA. We then performed gene expression profiling analysis using data obtained from RNA-seq of 3 groups: control CCs, aging SNL CCs, aging SNL CCs+Spesolimab.

Project description:Autologous chondrocyte transplantation (ACT) is a routine technique to regenerate focal cartilage lesions. However, patients with osteoarthritis (OA) are lacking an appropriate long-lasting treatment alternative, partly since it is not known if chondrocytes from OA patients have the same chondrogenic differentiation potential as chondrocytes from donors not affected by OA. Articular chondrocytes from patients with OA undergoing total knee replacement (Mankin Score >3, Ahlbäck Score >2) and from patients undergoing ACT, here referred to as normal donors (ND), were isolated applying protocols used for ACT. Their chondrogenic differentiation potential was evaluated both in high-density pellet and scaffold (Hyaff-11) cultures by histological proteoglycan assessment (Bern Score) and immunohistochemistry for collagen types I and II. Chondrocytes cultured in monolayer and scaffolds were subjected to gene expression profiling using genome-wide oligonucleotide microarrays. Expression data were verified by using quantitative RT-PCR. Chondrocytes from ND and OA donors demonstrated accumulation of comparable amounts of cartilage matrix components, including sulphated proteoglycans and collagen types I and II. The mRNA expression of cartilage markers (COL2A1, COMP, aggrecan, CRTL1, SOX9) and genes involved in matrix synthesis (biglycan, COL9A2, COL11A1, TIMP4, CILP2) was highly induced in 3D cultures of chondrocytes from both donor groups. Genes associated with hypertrophic or OA cartilage (COL10A1, RUNX2, periostin, ALP, PTHR1, MMP13, COL1A1, COL3A1) were not significantly regulated between the two groups of donors. The expression of 661 genes, including COMP, FN1, and SOX9, were differentially regulated between OA and ND chondrocytes cultured in monolayer. During scaffold culture, the differences diminished between the OA and ND chondrocytes, and only 184 genes were differentially regulated. Only few genes were differentially expressed between OA and ND chondrocytes in Hyaff-11 culture. The risk of differentiation into hypertrophic cartilage does not seem to be increased for OA chondrocytes. Our findings suggest that the chondrogenic capacity is not significantly affected by OA and OA chondrocytes fulfill the requirements for matrix-associated ACT. Experiment Overall Design: Gene expression profiles of monolayer cultures (ML; passage 2) and Hyaff-11 scaffold cultures (3D; 14 days in vitro) of chondrocytes from 3 normal donors (ND; underwent ACT treatment) and 3 donors suffering from Osteoarthritis (OA; underwent knee replacement surgery) were determined. Comparative analyses between 3D and ML cultures (3D vs. ML) were performed to assess differentiation capacity of ND and OA chondrocytes. Furthermore, OA-related differences were determined comparing OA and ND monolayers as well as scaffold cultures (each OA vs. ND).
