Project description:Osteogenesis imperfecta (OI) Type V is typically characterized by radial head dislocation, calcification of interosseous membrane and post-fracture hyperplastic callus. It is caused by the c.-14C>T mutation in the 5’UTR of the IFITM5 gene, adding five amino acids (MALEP) to the N-terminal of IFITM5 protein. Previous studies have suggested a neomorphic function of the MALEP-IFITM5 protein. However, the underlying mechanisms remain unclear due to embryonic lethality in previous models. Therefore, we developed an inducible animal model of Ifitm5flox c.-14C>T that could be induced by Cre expressing at different developmental stages to explore the pathogenic effects of the neomorphic MALEP-IFITM5. Specifically, Prx1-Cre; Ifitm5flox c.-14C>T mutant mice were born with fractures in all limbs, showing deficient ossification and enhanced chondrogenesis associated with increased SOX9 abundance. We isolated skeletal cells from tibia of Ifitm5 mutant mouse at P6 stage and conducted single RNA sequencing (10X Genomics). The data were compared to the RNA-seq data generated from the tibia of control mouse at the same stage (GSE159544).

Project description:Osteogenesis imperfecta (OI) is a serious genetic bone disorder characterized by congenital low bone mass, deformity and frequent fractures. Type XV OI is a moderate to severe form of skeletal dysplasia caused by WNT1 mutations. In this cohort study from southern China, we summarized the clinical phenotypes of patients with WNT1 mutations and found the proportion of type XV patients was around 10.3% (25 out of 243) with diverse phenotypic spectrums. Functional assays indicated that mutations of WNT1 significantly impaired its secretion and effective activity, leading to moderate to severe clinical manifestations, porous bone structure and enhanced osteoclastic activities. Analysis of proteomic data from human skeleton indicated that the expression of SOST was dramatically reduced in type XV patients. Single-cell transcriptome data generated from human tibia samples revealed aberrant differentiation trajectory of skeletal progenitors and impaired maturation of osteocytes, resulting in excessive CXCL12+ progenitors and abnormal cell populations with adipogenic characteristics. The integration of multi-omics data from human skeleton delineates how WNT1 regulates the differentiation and maturation of skeletal progenitors, which will provide a new direction for the treatment strategy of type XV osteogenesis imperfecta and relative low bone mass diseases such as early onset osteoporosis.

Project description:Osteogenesis imperfecta (OI) type V is the second most common form of OI, distinguished by hyperplastic callus formation and calcification of the interosseous membranes in addition to bone fragility. All patients carry a dominant pathogenic variant (c.-14C>T) in IFITM5. Here, we generated a conditional Rosa26 knock-in mouse model to study the mechanistic consequences of the recurrent mutation. Expression of the mutant Ifitm5 in osteo-chondroprogenitor or chondrogenic cells resulted in low bone mass and growth retardation. Mutant limbs showed impaired endochondral ossification, cartilage overgrowth, and abnormal growth plate architecture. The cartilage phenotype correlates with the pathology reported in OI type V patients. Surprisingly, expression of mutant Ifitm5 in matrix-synthesizing or mature osteoblasts caused no obvious skeletal abnormalities. In contrast, earlier expression in osteo-chondroprogenitors was associated with increase in the skeletal progenitor population within the periosteum. Mutant IFITM5 disrupts early skeletal homeostasis in part by activating ERK signaling and downstream SOX9 protein, and inhibition of these pathways partially rescued the phenotype in mutant animals. . Tracing of chondrogenic cells expressing the mutant Ifitm5 using the Ai9 reporter showed retention of Ai9+ cells in the growth plate and delayed migration to the bone shaft. RNA sequencing demonstrated enrichment for chondrogenic markers in the bone. These data identify the contribution of a defect in osteo-chondroprogenitor differentiation and not osteoblast function as a driver in the pathogenesis of OI type V.

Project description:Osteogenesis imperfecta (OI) is most commonly caused by autosomal dominant mutations in genes encoding collagen type-I. Here, we test the hypothesis that modulation of the endoplasmic reticulum (ER) proteostasis network via the unfolded protein response (UPR) can improve the folding and secretion of the lethal osteogenesis imperfecta (OI)-causing G425S a1(I) variant. We show that specific induction of the UPR’s XBP1s transcriptional response enhances G425S a1(I) secretion up to ~300% of basal levels. Notably, the effect is selective – WT a1(I) secretion is unaltered by XBP1s. XBP1s pathway activation appears to post-translationally enhance the folding/assembly and secretion of G425S a1(I). Consistent with this notion, we find that the stable, triple-helical collagen-I secreted by XBP1s-activated G425S a1(I) patient fibroblasts includes a higher proportion of the mutant a1(I) polypeptide than the collagen-I secreted under basal ER proteostasis conditions.

Project description:Osteogenesis imperfecta (OI) is a rare inherited connective tissue dysplasia characterized with skeletal fragility, recurrent fractures and bone deformity, predominantly caused by mutations in the genes COL1A1 or COL1A2 that encode the chains of type I collagen. In the present study, clinical manifestations and genetic variants were analysed from 188 Chinese OI patients, majority of which are of southern China origin. By targeted sequencing, 64 and 58 OI patients were found carrying mutations in COL1A1 and COL1A2 respectively, including 12 novel COL1A1 and 8 novel COL1A2 variants. We identified a COL1A1 hotspot (c.G2461A; p.G821S) in 8 patients and validated two novel splicing mutations. A diverse mutational and phenotypic spectrum was observed, coupling with heterogeneity observed in the transcriptomic data (n=6) derived from osteoblasts of our cohort. Missense mutations were significantly associated (χ2 p=0.0096) with a cluster of patients with more severe clinical phenotypes. Additionally, the severity of OI was more correlated with the quality of bones, rather than the bone mineral density. Bone density is most responsive to bisphosphonate (BP) treatment during the juvenile stage (10-15 y/o). In contrast, height is not responsive to bisphosphonate treatment. Our findings expand the mutational spectrum of type I collagen genes and the genotype-phenotype correlation in Chinese OI patients. The observation of effective BP treatment in an age-specific manner may help to improve OI patient management.

Project description:Osteogenesis Imperfecta (OI) is a genetic, rare disease characterized by bone fragility, with a wide range in the severity of clinical manifestations. The majority of the cases are due to mutations in COL1A1 or COL1A2 genes which code for the type I collagen molecule. Mesenchymal stem cells (MSCs), as the progenitors of the osteoblasts, the main type I collagen secreting cell type in the bone, have been proposed and tested as an innovative therapy for OI with promising but transient outcomes. In this study, we performed a phase I clinical trial based on reiterative infusions of histocompatible MSCs in two pediatric patients affected by severe and moderate OI. The aim of this study was to assess the safety and effectiveness of this cell therapy in non-immunosuppressed OI patients. The host response to MSCs was also evaluated by collecting the sera from OI patients before, along and after the cell therapy. The results of this clinical trial are twofold: the sequential administration of MSCs is safe and improve the bone parameters and quality of life of OI patients. Moreover, MSCs therapy elicits a pro-osteogenic paracrine response in patients, especially noticeable in that affected by severe OI. These results indicate the feasibility and potential of reiterative MSCs infusion for OI and highlight the paracrine response shown by OI patients as a consequence of MSCs treatment. Study design and patients: The Mesenchymal Stem Cell Therapy for the Treatment of Osteogenesis Imperfecta (TERCELOI) study (www.clinical trials.gov: # NCT02172885, EudraCT number: 2012-002553-38) is an independent multi-center Phase I clinical trial to evaluate the feasibility, safety and potential efficacy of infused sibling HLA-matched MSCs in non-immunosuppressed children with OI. PBMCs isolation and serum collection: Venous blood samples were collected before the cell therapy (basal serum), along the cell therapy (1 week, 1 month and 4 months after each MSCs infusion) and during the follow-up period (1 and 2 years after the fifth and last MSCs infusion). MLR assay: PBMCs isolated from patients were resuspended in PBS+FBS (5%) and stained with carboxyfluoroscein succinate-ester (CFSE) (Molecular Probes, USA). Bone mineral density: Bone mineral density (BMD) at the lumbar spine (LS) from L1 to L4, was measured by dual energy x-ray absorptiometry (DXA) on a whole-body scanner within a pediatric platform (Hologic QDR densitometer). Raw measurements were converted to Z-scores for analysis using reference standards for age and pubertal status. OI-MSCs isolation and characterization and culture: OI-MSCs were derived from discarded and donated bone fragments of OI pediatric patients undergoing corrective surgery. All patients suffered Type III-IV OI, with mutations in either COL1A1 or COL1A2 genes. The donation was approved by the Basque Clinical Research Ethics Committee. Briefly, bone chips were mechanically flushed with PBS and then cut into small pieces to extrude cells without the use of enzymes. The cut bone pieces were let undisturbed during 14 days until OI-MSCs migrated to cell culture plate. OI-MSCs were assessed for the expression of CD105, CD90 and CD73 and the absence of CD14, CD34, CD45, CD19 and HLA-DR. MSCs were also tested for their potential to differentiate to osteoblasts and adipocytes using specific cell culture media. OI-MSCs were cultured under standard growth medium (DMEM low glucose with glutamax (Gibco), penicillin/streptomycin (Gibco) and fetal bovine serum at 10% (Sigma-Aldrich, USA). Osteogenesis induction medium (OIM) was composed of standard medium plus ascorbic acid 0.2 mM, beta-glycerophosphate 10 mM, and dexamethasone 10 nM (all from Sigma-Aldrich). When specified, FBS was replaced by P01 and P02 serum samples at 2.5%. RNAseq and Q-PCR validation: OI-MSCs from 10 OI pediatric patients were seeded in 96-well plates (1 000 cells/well) and the following day cultured in the presence of OIM. Next, total RNA was isolated with the AllPrep kit (QIAGEN, USA). cDNA library (TrueSeq stranded Total cDNA library, Illumina, USA) and sequencing at HiSeq 4000 (PE100nt, 50 million reads/sample).
