Comprehensive proteomic comparison between native tendon and ligament and 3D tissue engineered tendon and ligament constructs

ABSTRACT: Tendons and ligaments are important biological structures in both humans and animals. They are part of dense connective tissue and are crucial to the functioning of the musculoskeletal system. However, they are commonly damaged due to age-related wear and tear, trauma or sports related incidents, which can lead to severe immobility for the individual and can lead to injury of other tissues and development of degenerative joint disease such as osteoarthritis. Tissue engineering can offer great potential in the treatment of tendon and ligament injury by seeking a biological replacement with fully regenerated autologenous tissue. This approach commonly involves an artificial ECM (scaffold) on which cell can proliferate and differentiate with subsequent new tissue generation. Fibrin is a natural scaffold with no expected toxic degradation or inflammatory reaction and can be used as an autologous scaffold for fibroblast from connective tissue to create a three dimensional structure. The purpose of this study was to compare the proteomic differences between native tendon, ligament and 3D tissue engineered tendon and ligament fibrin constructs.

Tendons and ligaments (T/Ls) play key roles in the musculoskeletal system, but they are susceptible to traumatic or age-related rupture, leading to severe morbidity as well as increased susceptibility to degenerative joint diseases such as osteoarthritis. Tissue engineering represents an attractive therapeutic approach to treating T/L injury but it is hampered by our poor understanding of the defining characteristics of the two tissues. The present study aimed to determine differences in the pro ...[more]

Project description:Healing process after connective tissues (CT) injury is complex but important as CT are critical for human moving, and patient outcome of CT injured patients is protracted with high individual variation. Specific markers which could be used for healing prognosis will be great help to monitor patient outcome, and furtherly improve target treatment and patient recovery. Although several common factors like age, gender and body mass index (BMI) were reported to predict ATR healing outcome [references], more specific markers which can be used as predictors of patient outcome after ATR are still lacking. Several biomarkers have been reported to associate with tendon healing, and indicated their relationship with patient outcome(1-4). These results highlight the potential of protein expression detection and analysis for tendon study in general and healing outcome prognosis in particular. Collagen type I (Col1a1) is the main component of Achilles tendon and plays vital role in tendon healing via involving in collagen fibrils production among tendon fibroblasts(5). Higher production of Col1a1 is associated with faster tendon repair(6), previous study on animal model reported the increased Col1a1 synthesis can exert a positive effect on tendon healing[?]. Thus, functional proteins with high impact on Col1a1 can be used not only to improve tendon healing, also can be as targets for healing improvement and outcome prediction. The proteome file of Achilles tendon which is important to increase understanding of tendon healing and help to identify accurate outcome-related biomarkers is however lagged behind. The identification of proteomic profile of Achilles tendon is very much limited in number of proteins and sample size(7-9), and is even few on human. Recent improvement in proteomic assay based on mass spectrometry (MS) made it possible to assemble the proteomic landscape of human tissues(10, 11) with high quality and sensitivity. To characterize the proteomic components in human Achilles tendon, we utilized biopsies from ATR patients with both good and poor 1-year healing outcome. A validated platform including quantitative MS and clinical database was used to identify proteomic landscape and potential bio-predictors of clinical outcome. Our study may provide a more comprehensive landscape of proteins for human Achilles tendon, as well as specific biomarkers which can be used for long term outcome prognosis after ATR.
