Project description:Tendons are dense connective tissues with relatively few cells which makes studying the molecular profile of the tissue challenging. There is not a consensus on the spatial location of various cell types within a tendon, nor the accompanying transcriptional profile. In the present study, we used two male rat patellar tendon samples for sequencing-based spatial transcriptomics to determine the gene expression profile. We integrated our data with a single cell dataset to predict the cell type composition of the patellar tendon as a function of location within the tissue. The spatial location of the predicated cell types suggested that there were two populations of tendon fibroblasts, one located in the tendon midsubstance, while the other localized with red blood cells, pericytes, and immune cells to the tendon peripheral connective tissue. Of the highest expressed spatially variable genes, there were multiple genes with known function in tendon: Col1a1, Col1a2, Dcn, Fmod, Sparc, and Comp. Further, a novel spatially regulated gene (AABR07000398.1) with no known function was identified. The spatial gene expression of tendon associated genes (Scx, Thbs4, Tnmd, Can, Bgn, Lum, Adamts2, Lox, Ppib, Col2a1, Col3a1, Col6a2) was also visualized. Both patellar tendon samples had similar expression patterns for all these genes. This dataset provides new spatial insights into gene expression in a healthy tendon.

Project description:In the present study, a defect was created in the patellar enthesis of a rat model, and treatment was provided using two versions of a biphasic silk fibroin scaffold showing two different transition morphology between the phases. The study included two scaffold-treated groups, two control groups, and one native/healthy group. For the scaffold-treated groups, the defect was treated by implanting one of the two versions of the biphasic scaffolds. One scaffold showed a mixed/interconnected transition zone between the tendon and bony part of the construct (S-MT) while the transition in the other scaffold was abrupt (S-AT). Two control groups were included. In the first group, a defect was created in the patellar enthesis and the tendon was sutured back over the defect and to the bone. In the second group, a transversal cut was performed at the tendon part of the enthesis and sutured back. Samples were collected (n=8) per group at two time points (4 weeks and 12 weeks) after the surgery. Healthy (contralateral) samples were used as reference. The Qiagen Osteogenesis Pathway-focused PCR array was utilized to profile the expression of relevant osteogenic, chondrogenic, and tenogenic genes in samples from healthy, injured and treated patellar entheses samples.

Project description:Background: Tendon is a major component of musculoskeletal system connecting the muscles to the bone. Tendon injuries are very common orthopedics problems leading to impeded motion. Up to now, there still lacks effective treatments for tendon diseases. Methods: Tendon stem/progenitor cells (TSPCs) were isolated from the patellar tendons of SD rats. The expression levels of genes were evaluated by quantitative RT-PCR. Immunohistochemistry staining was performed to confirm the presence of tendon markers in tendon tissues. Bioinformatics analysis of data acquired by RNA-seq was used to find out the differentially expressed genes. Rat patellar tendon injury model was used to evaluate the effect of U0126 on tendon injury healing. Biomechanical testing was applied to evaluate the mechanical properties of newly formed tendon tissues. Results: In this study, we have shown that ERK inhibitor U0126 rather PD98059 could effectively increase the expression of tendon-related genes and promote the tenogenesis of TSPCs in vitro. To explore the underlying mechanisms, RNA sequencing was performed to identify the molecular difference between U0126-treated and control TSPCs. The result showed that GDF6 was significantly increased by U0126, which is an important factor of the TGFβ superfamily regulating tendon development and tenogenesis. In addition, NBM (nonwoven-based gelatin/polycaprolactone membrane) which mimics the native microenvironment of the tendon tissue was used as an acellular scaffold to carry U0126. The results demonstrated that when NBM was used in combination with U0126, tendon healing was significantly promoted with better histological staining outcomes and mechanical properties. Conclusion: Taken together, we have found U0126 promoted tenogenesis in TSPCs through activating GDF6, and NBM loaded with U0126 significantly promoted tendon defect healing, which provides a new treatment for tendon injury.

Rat tendon stem/progenitor cells (TSPCs) were isolated at different stages of post-natal development: TSPCs-1d, TSPCs-7d and TSPCs-56d. TSPCs at different post-natal development stages (1d, 7d and 56d) were isolated, cultured and used for microarray analyses at passage 2. All TSPCs in this study were of isolated from more than one individual. Total RNA was extracted and fragmented biotin-tagged cRNA was hybridized to Rat Genome 230 2.0 Array.

Project description:Collagen XII, belonging to the fibril-associated collagens, is a homotrimeric secreted extracellular matrix (ECM) protein encoded by the COL12A1 gene. Mutations in the human COL12A1 gene cause an Ehlers-Danlos/myopathy overlap syndrome leading to skeletal abnormalities and muscle weakness. Here, we studied the role of collagen XII in joint pathophysiology by analyzing collagen XII deficient mice and human patients. We found that collagen XII is widely expressed across multiple connective tissue of the developing joint. Lack of collagen XII in mice destabilizes tendons and the femoral trochlear groove to induce patellar subluxation in the patellofemoral joint. These changes are associated with an ECM damage response in tendon and secondary quadriceps muscle degeneration. Moreover, patellar subluxation was also identified as a clinical feature of human patients with collagen XII deficiency. The results provide an explanation for joint hyperlaxity in mice and human patients with collagen XII deficiency.
