Project description:Mesenchymal Stromal Cells (MSCs)-derived Extracellular Vesicles (EVs) emerged as an innovative strategy for the treatment of osteoarthritis (OA). Biological activity of EVs is generally driven by their cargo, which might be influenced by microenvironment. Therefore, pre-conditioning strategies, including modifications in culture conditions or oxygen tension could directly impact on MSCs paracrine activity. Methods: A xeno-free supplement (XFS) was used for isolation and expansion of MSCs and compared to conventional fetal bovine serum (FBS) culture. Bone Marrow-derived MSCs (BMSCs) were pre-conditioned under normoxia (20% O2) or under hypoxia (1% O2) and EVs production was evaluated. Anti-OA activity was evaluated by using an in vitro inflammatory model. miRNA content was also explored, to select putative miRNA that could be involved in a biological function. Results: Modulation of IL-6, IL-8 and COX-2 was evaluated on hACs simultaneously treated with IL-1α and BMSC-derived EVs. FBS-sEVs exerted a blunt inhibitory effect, while a strong anti-inflammatory outcome was achieved by XFS-sEVs. Interestingly, in both cases hypoxia pre-conditioning allowed to increase EVs effectiveness. Analysis of miRNA content showed the upregulation in XFS-hBMSC-derived EVs of miRNA known to have a chondroprotective role, such as let-7b-5p, miR-17, miR-145, miR-21-5p, miR-214-3p, miR-30b-5p, miR-30c-5p. Activated pathways and target genes were investigated in silico and most of the upregulated miRNAs were found to be involved in TGF-beta and Wnt signalling pathways, by targeting genes related to cartilage homeostasis. Conclusions: XFS medium was found to be suitable for isolation and expansion of MSCs, secreting EVs with a therapeutic cargo. The application of cells cultured exclusively in XFS overcomes issues of safety associated with serum-containing media and makes ready-to-use clinical therapies more accessible.

Project description:Rationale: Mesenchymal stromal cells (MSCs)-derived extracellular vesicles (EVs) emerged as an innovative strategy for the treatment of chronic disorders such as osteoarthritis (OA). Biological activity of EVs is generally driven by their cargo, which might be influenced by microenvironment. Therefore, pre-conditioning strategies, including modifications in culture conditions or oxygen tension could directly impact on MSCs paracrine activity. In this study we selected an appropriate preconditioning system to induce cells to perform the most suitable therapeutic response by EV-encapsulated bioactive factors. Methods: A xeno-free supplement (XFS) was used for isolation and expansion of MSCs and compared to conventional fetal bovine serum (FBS) culture. Bone Marrow-derived MSCs (BMSCs) were pre-conditioned under normoxia (20% O2) or under hypoxia (1% O2) and EVs production was evaluated. Anti-OA activity was evaluated by using an in vitro inflammatory model. miRNA content was also explored, to select putative miRNA that could be involved in a biological function. Results: Modulation of IL-6, IL-8, COX-2 and PGE2 was evaluated on hACs simultaneously treated with IL-1α and BMSC-derived EVs. FBS-sEVs exerted a blunt inhibitory effect, while a strong anti-inflammatory outcome was achieved by XFS-sEVs. Interestingly, in both cases hypoxia pre-conditioning allowed to increase EVs effectiveness.

Activated pathways and target genes were investigated in silico and upregulated miRNAs functionally validated in target cells. MiR-145 and miR-214 were found to protect chondrocytes from IL-1α-induced inflammation and to reduce production of pro-inflammatory cytokines. Conclusions: XFS medium was found to be suitable for isolation and expansion of MSCs, secreting EVs with a therapeutic cargo. The application of cells cultured exclusively in XFS overcomes issues of safety associated with serum-containing media and makes ready-to-use clinical therapies more accessible.

Project description:Proctor2013 - Cartilage breakdown, interventions to reduce collagen release
The molecular pathways involved in cartilage breakdown is studied using this model to examine possible interventions to reduce cartilage collagen release. The model contains three separate submodels, one which describes the IL-1/JNK signalling pathway, secondly the OSM/STAT3 signalling pathway, and lastly a module which includes proMMP (Matrix matalloproteinase) activation, and aggrecan and collagen release.
This model is described in the article:
A computer simulation approach for assessing therapeutic intervention points to prevent cytokine-induced cartilage breakdown.

Abstract:
Objective. To use a novel computational approach to examine the molecular pathways involved in cartilage breakdown and to use computer simulation to test possible interventions to reduce collagen release. Methods. We constructed a computational model of the relevant molecular pathways using the Systems Biology Markup Language (SBML), a computer-readable format of a biochemical network. The model was constructed using our experimental data showing that interleukin-1 (IL-1) and oncostatin M (OSM) act synergistically to up-regulate collagenase protein and activity and initiate cartilage collagen breakdown. Simulations were performed in the COPASI software package. Results. The model predicted that simulated inhibition of c-Jun N-terminal kinase (JNK) or p38 mitogen-activated protein kinase, and over-expression of tissue inhibitor of metalloproteinases 3 (TIMP-3) led to a reduction in collagen release. Over-expression of TIMP-1 was much less effective than TIMP-3 and led to a delay, rather than a reduction, in collagen release. Simulated interventions of receptor antagonists and inhibition of Janus kinase 1 (JAK1), the first kinase in the OSM pathway, were ineffective. So, importantly, the model predicts that it is more effective to intervene at targets which are downstream, such as the JNK pathway, rather than close to the cytokine signal. In vitro experiments confirmed the effectiveness of JNK inhibition. Conclusion. Our study shows the value of computer modelling as a tool for examining possible interventions to reduce cartilage collagen breakdown. The model predicts interventions that either prevent transcription or inhibit activity of collagenases are promising strategies and should be investigated further in an experimental setting. © 2013 American College of Rheumatology.

Project description:Here, we developed a simple xeno- and feeder-free protocol for human hyaline cartilage production in vitro using hydrogel-cultured multi-tissue organoids (MTO). We investigate gene regulatory networks during spontaneous hiPSC-MTO differentiation using RNA sequencing and bioinformatic analyses. We find the interplays between BMPs and neural FGF pathways are associated with MTO phenotype transition. We recognize TGF-beta/BMP and Wnt signaling likely contribute to the long-term maintenance of cartilage growth and specific increase in articular cartilage development. By comparing MTO cartilage transcription signature with human lower limb chondrocytes, we observe MTO chondrocytes show strong correlation with fetal lower limb cartilage tissues. Collectively, our findings describe self-organized emergence of MTO hyaline cartilage, its associated molecular pathways, and spontaneous adoption of articular cartilage development trajectories by MTO.

Project description:Articular cartilage degeneration, which may lead to osteoarthritis (OA), is a normal component of the aging process, but its underlying mechanism remains unknown. We found that chondrocytes exhibited an energy metabolism shift from glycolysis to oxidative phosphorylation (OXPHOS) during aging. Reprogrammed cartilage metabolism by parkin ablation decreased OXPHOS and increased glycolysis, with ameliorated aging-related OA. Metabolomics analysis indicated that lauroyl-L-carnitine (LLC) was decreased in aged cartilage, but increased in parkin-deficient cartilage. In vitro, LLC improved the cartilage matrix synthesis of OA chondrocytes. In vivo, intraarticular injection of LLC in mice with anterior cruciate ligament transaction (ACLT) ameliorated OA. These results suggest that metabolic changes are regulated by parkin-impaired cartilage during aging, and targeting the metabolomic changes by supplementation with LLC is a promising treatment strategy for ameliorating OA.
