Project description:Purpose: To reveal the effects of thrombin on the proliferation, morphology, and gene expression in chondrocytes. Methods: Rat primary chondrocytes were cultured with RS, RP and RPT for 24hours, and RNA was extracted for sequencing. The chondrocytes’ morphology was investigated under inverted microscope. Chondrocyte’s proliferation was evaluated by Edu staining, CCK8 methods and PPI network of proliferation-associated genes. The differential gene expression was visualized using a volcano plot. The variance in expression levels of the genes was visualized by the heatmap. GO-based functional annotation clustering analysis was performed on the upregulated and downregulated DEGs, which included biological process, cellular component, and molecular function. The endoplasmic reticulum of chondrocytes from three groups were labeled by molecular probes. The expression levels of Col2a1 and proteoglycan synthesis were detected by cellular immunofluorescence and Safranin O staining separately. The expression levels of Lox were determined by immunocytochemistry staining. The following genes including Comp, Eln, P3H1 and Colgalt1 were examined by RT-qPCR. The expression of MMPs and Sox9 were evaluated by Western Blot. Further analysis of PPI network was performed, and the corresponding modules were selected. Results: As compared with RP group, chondrocytes proliferation was obvious and normal chondrocytes quickly transformed into fibroblast-like chondrocytes in the presence of RS and RPT. we found that 727 genes were up-regulated, and 1162 genes were down-regulated in Venn diagram through analyzing differentially expressed genes (DEGs). The results of GO analyses showed that both the expression of ECM and MMPs were significantly influenced by RS and RPT. Both the labeled endoplasmic reticulum and the expression of representative genes analyzed from the results of RNA sequencing confirmed that chondrocytes were dominated by catabolism. The expression of ECM, MMPs, inflammatory factors and chemokines were verified at the protein level or at the RNA level which agreed with PPI network and functional modules. Conclusions: Thrombin stimulated the proliferation and promoted the morphology transformation towards fibrotic chondrocytes. Thrombin improved the chondrocytes’ catabolism by regulating the expression of the key enzymes which were responsible for ECM synthesis. Meanwhile thrombin increased the expression of MMPs and chemokines that aimed at extracellular ECM degradation.

Project description:A variety of cell cultures models and in vivo approaches have been used to study gene expression during chondrocyte differentiation. The extent to which the in vitro models reflect bona fide gene regulation in the growth plate has not been quantified. In addition, studies that evaluate global gene expression changes among different growth plate zones are limited. To address these issues, we completed a microarray screen of three growth plate zones derived from manually segmented embryonic mouse tibiae. Classification of genes differentially expressed between each respective growth plate zone, functional categorization as well as characterization of gene expression patterns, cytogenetic loci, signaling pathways and functional motifs confirmed documented data and pointed to novel aspects of chondrocyte differentiation. Parallel comparisons of the microdissected tibiae data set to our previously completed micromass culture screen further corroborated the suitability of micromass cultures for modeling gene expression in chondrocyte development. The micromass culture system demonstrated striking similarities to the in vivo microdissected tibiae screen; however, the micromass system was unable to accurately distinguish gene expression differences in the hypertrophic and mineralized zones of the growth plate. These studies will allow us to better understand zone-specific gene expression patterns in the growth plate. Ultimately, this work will help define both the genomic context in which genes are expressed in the long bones and the extent to which the micromass culture system is able to recapitulate chondrocyte development in endochondral ossification. Experiment Overall Design: Tibiae from 15.5 day old mouse embryos were isolated and partitioned into three distinct zones. Total RNA was isolated from each segment and the individual segments pooled within a litter. Experiment Overall Design: Samples were hybridized to Affymetrix MOE 430 2.0 mouse chips for analysis. Four independent trials were executed for each zone. Experiment Overall Design: Number of time points: 1 Experiment Overall Design: Number of treatments: 0 Experiment Overall Design: Number of Samples: 4 replicates per zone Experiment Overall Design: Affymetrix chip: MOE 430 2.0 Experiment Overall Design: Tissue or origin: Tibiae Experiment Overall Design: Species E15.5 mice Experiment Overall Design: Samples: Total RNA
