While human mesenchymal stem cells (hMSCs), either in the bone marrow or in tumour microenvironment could be targeted by radiotherapy, their response is poorly understood. The oxic effects on radiosensitivity, cell cycle progression are largely unknown, and the radiation effects on hMSCs differentiation capacities remained unexplored. Here we analysed hMSCs viability and cell cycle progression ...
BACKGROUND Epigenetic changes (i.e., chromatin modifications) occur during chondrogenesis and in osteoarthritis (OA). We investigated the effect of H3K27me3 demethylase inhibition on chondrogenesis and assessed its utility in cartilage tissue engineering and in understanding cartilage destruction in OA. METHODS We used a high-content screen to assess the effect of epigenetic modifying compoun...
Mesenchymal stromal cells (MSCs), which reside within various tissues, are utilized in the engineering of cartilage tissue. Dexamethasone (DEX)--a synthetic glucocorticoid--is almost invariably applied to potentiate the growth-factor-induced chondrogenesis of MSCs in vitro, albeit that this effect has been experimentally demonstrated only for transforming-growth-factor-beta (TGF-β)-stimulated b...
Cell adhesion molecules have been shown to be important mediators of morphogenesis and pattern formation. In this study, we have shown that N-cadherin is expressed in a specific spatiotemporal manner in the developing limb bud during chondrogenesis in vivo and in cultured limb mesenchyme in vitro. The time period of maximal expression of N-cadherin corresponds to the period of active cellular c...
Axolotls (Ambystoma mexicanum) can completely regenerate lost limbs, whereas Xenopus laevis frogs cannot. During limb regeneration, a blastema is first formed at the amputation plane. It is thought that this regeneration blastema forms a limb by mechanisms similar to those of a developing embryonic limb bud. Furthermore, Xenopus laevis frogs can form a blastema after amputation; however, the bl...
Cartilage formation in the chick limb follows rapid proliferation, condensation and differentiation of limb mesenchyme. The control of these early events is poorly understood. Platelet-derived growth factor receptor alpha (PDGFR-alpha) is present throughout the mesenchyme of early chick limb buds, while its ligand, PDGF-A, is expressed in the surrounding epithelium. PDGFR-alpha is down-regulate...
During endochondral ossification in the vertebrate limb, multipotent mesenchymal cells first differentiate into chondroblasts (chondrogenesis) that further differentiate (via chondrocyte hypertrophy) to a terminal cellular phenotype. Dlx5 and Dlx6 are functionally redundant regulators of chondrocyte hypertrophy. We now show that Dlx5 and Dlx6 also regulate the earlier step of chondrogenesis in ...
Hypoxia, a common environmental condition, influences cell signals and functions. Here, we compared the effects of hypoxia (1% oxygen) and normoxia (air) on chondrogenic differentiation of human mesenchymal stem cells (MSCs). For in vitro chondrogenic differentiation, MSCs were concentrated to form pellets and subjected to conditions appropriate for chondrogenic differentiation under normoxia a...
The regeneration of damaged cartilage due to injuries and diseases is a major goal for the future. Cartilage has limited healing capacity. There have been a number of studies shown to induce cartilage regeneration both in vitro and in vivo. Yet we are far from obtaining regenerated cartilage that has the properties similar to the native cartilage. Chondrogenesis of mesenchymal stem cells (MSCs)...
Transforming growth factor (TGF)-β and bone morphogenetic protein (BMP) induce a cartilage-specific extracellular matrix (ECM) gene, aggrecan, in a chondrogenic cell line, ATDC5. The results of our recent study show that TGF-β1, but not BMP-4, strongly induces an ECM gene, fibronectin, during chondrogenesis. However, the role of fibronectin in chondrogenesis is unclear. In the current study, ou...
