项目摘要

DESCRIPTION (provided by applicant): Understanding the mechanisms that control chondrogenesis is of major clinical importance for improving tissue engineering strategies that can be applied to repair cartilage during osteoarthritis, for example. Studies proposed for the grant renewal period are focused on deciphering the regulation chondrogenesis at the level of gene transcription, precursor messenger RNA (pre-mRNA) alternative splicing and protein synthesis. The following three Specific Aims will directly address these aspects of cartilage development: 1) Investigate the role of transcription factors during chondrogenesis, specifically AP-2, dEF-1 and C/EBP; 2) Investigate the regulation of the type II procollagen pre-mRNA switch that occurs during chondrogenesis and 3) Determine the function of the developmentally-expressed type IIA procollagen protein isoform in vivo. Combined data from these Specific Aims will provide unique insight into the regulation of chondrogenesis as it is becoming apparent that processes of transcription, RNA splicing and translation are tightly coordinated. We also plan to study mechanisms important for cartilage maintenance and repair as described in the fourth Specific Aim: 4) Investigate the mechanism of IL-1b and TNF-a induction of BMP-2 in adult chondrocytes. Processes that occur during chondrogenesis are believed to be recapitulated during tissue repair under conditions of cartilage degradation. Therefore, the final Specific Aim in combination with the first three Specific Aims focused on chondrogenesis will provide invaluable information into the maintenance of cartilage health. The predominant experimental approach to these topics will be to use in vitro systems of chondrogenesis utilizing the ATDC5 cell line and adult stem cells isolated from adipose tissue to investigate state-specific differentiation events. Regulatory factors will be tested by over expression and inhibition studies and correlated with expression in vivo.

描述（由申请人提供）：了解控制软骨形成的机制对于改进可用于修复骨关节炎期间的软骨的组织工程策略具有重要的临床意义。资助续期期间提出的研究重点是在基因转录、前体信使 RNA (pre-mRNA) 选择性剪接和蛋白质合成水平上破译软骨形成的调控。以下三个具体目标将直接解决软骨发育的这些方面： 1) 研究转录因子在软骨形成过程中的作用，特别是 AP-2、dEF-1 和 C/EBP； 2) 研究软骨形成过程中发生的 II 型前胶原前 mRNA 开关的调节，以及 3) 确定体内发育表达的 IIA 型前胶原蛋白亚型的功能。这些具体目标的综合数据将为软骨形成的调控提供独特的见解，因为转录、RNA 剪接和翻译过程之间的紧密协调变得越来越明显。我们还计划研究对软骨维护和修复重要的机制，如第四个具体目标中所述：4) 研究成体软骨细胞中 IL-1b 和 TNF-a 诱导 BMP-2 的机制。软骨形成过程中发生的过程被认为是在软骨退化条件下的组织修复过程中重现的。因此，最终的具体目标与前三个侧重于软骨形成的具体目标相结合，将为维护软骨健康提供宝贵的信息。这些主题的主要实验方法是使用体外软骨形成系统，利用 ATDC5 细胞系和从脂肪组织中分离的成体干细胞来研究状态特异性分化事件。调节因子将通过过度表达和抑制研究进行测试，并与体内表达相关。
