Abstract
OBJECTIVE Studies have shown that the levels of pleiotrophin (PTN) are greatly elevated in the synovial fluid and cartilage in osteoarthritis. Therefore, the purpose of this study was to investigate the effect and mechanism of PTN on the chondrogenic differentiation of DPSCs in inflammatory and normal microenvironments. MATERIALS AND METHODS A lentiviral vector was used to deplete or overexpress PTN in DPSCs. The inflammatory microenvironment was simulated in vitro by the addition of IL-1β to the culture medium. The chondrogenic differentiation potential was assessed using Alcian Blue staining and the main chondrogenic markers. A dual-luciferase reporter assay was used to explore the relationship between miR-137 and PTN. RESULTS The results showed that 0.1 ng/mL IL-1β treatment during chondrogenic induction greatly impaired the chondrogenic differentiation of DPSCs. Supplementation with PTN and PTN overexpression inhibited chondrogenic differentiation of DPSCs, while PTN depletion promoted chondrogenic differentiation. MiR-137 negatively regulated the expression of PTN by binding to the 3'UTR of its mRNA. Moreover, miR-137 promoted chondrogenic differentiation of DPSCs in normal and inflammatory microenvironments. CONCLUSION Our results suggest that PTN may play an inhibitory role in the chondrogenic differentiation of DPSCs in normal and inflammatory microenvironments, which is regulated by miR-137.

RIOK3 potentially regulates osteogenesis-related pathways in ankylosing spondylitis and the differentiation of bone marrow mesenchymal stem cells. Genomics 2023; 115:110730. [PMID: 37866658 DOI: 10.1016/j.ygeno.2023.110730] [Citation(s) in RCA: 0] [Impact Index Per Article: 0] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Key Words] [MESH Headings] [Track Full Text] [Journal Information] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 07/19/2023] [Revised: 09/27/2023] [Accepted: 10/19/2023] [Indexed: 10/24/2023]
Abstract
RNA-binding proteins (RBPs), which are key effectors of gene expression, play critical roles in inflammation and immune regulation. However, the potential biological function of RBPs in ankylosing spondylitis (AS) remains unclear. We identified differentially expressed genes (DEGs) in peripheral blood mononuclear cells (PBMCs) of five patients with AS and three healthy persons by RNA-seq, obtained differentially expressed RBPs by overlapping DEGs and RBPs summary table. RIOK3 was selected as a target RBP and knocked down in mouse bone marrow mesenchymal stem cells (mBMSCs), and transcriptomic studies of siRIOK3 mBMSCs were performed again using RNA-seq. Results showed that RIOK3 knockdown inhibited the expression of genes related to osteogenic differentiation, ribosome function, and β-interferon pathways in mBMSCs. In vitro experiments have shown that RIOK3 knockdown reduced the osteogenic differentiation ability of mBMSCs. Collectively, RIOK3 may affect the differentiation of mBMSCs and participate in the pathogenesis of AS, especially pathological bone formation.

[PMID: 37457300 PMCID: PMC10349536 DOI: 10.3389/fcell.2023.1208315] [Citation(s) in RCA: 0] [Impact Index Per Article: 0] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Key Words] [Grants] [Track Full Text] [Figures] [Journal Information] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 04/18/2023] [Accepted: 06/13/2023] [Indexed: 07/18/2023] Open
Abstract
Objectives: RNA-binding proteins (RBPs) have diverse and essential biological functions, but their role in cartilage health and disease is largely unknown. The objectives of this study were (i) map the global landscape of RBPs expressed and enriched in healthy cartilage and dysregulated in osteoarthritis (OA); (ii) prioritize RBPs for their potential role in cartilage and in OA pathogenesis and as therapeutic targets. Methods: Our published bulk RNA-sequencing (RNA-seq) data of healthy and OA human cartilage, and a census of 1,542 RBPs were utilized to identify RBPs that are expressed in healthy cartilage and differentially expressed (DE) in OA. Next, our comparison of healthy cartilage RNA-seq data to 37 transcriptomes in the Genotype-Tissue Expression (GTEx) database was used to determine RBPs that are enriched in cartilage. Finally, expression of RBPs was analyzed in our single cell RNA-sequencing (scRNA-seq) data from healthy and OA human cartilage. Results: Expression of RBPs was higher than nonRBPs in healthy cartilage. In OA cartilage, 188 RBPs were differentially expressed, with a greater proportion downregulated. Ribosome biogenesis was enriched in the upregulated RBPs, while splicing and transport were enriched in the downregulated. To further prioritize RBPs, we selected the top 10% expressed RBPs in healthy cartilage and those that were cartilage-enriched according to GTEx. Intersecting these criteria, we identified Tetrachlorodibenzodioxin (TCDD) Inducible Poly (ADP-Ribose) Polymerase (TIPARP) as a candidate RBP. TIPARP was downregulated in OA. scRNA-seq data revealed TIPARP was most significantly downregulated in the "pathogenic cluster". Conclusion: Our global analyses reveal expression patterns of RBPs in healthy and OA cartilage. We also identified TIPARP and other RBPs as novel mediators in OA pathogenesis and as potential therapeutic targets.

Intergenic Interactions of SBNO1, NFAT5 and GLT8D1 Determine the Susceptibility to Knee Osteoarthritis among Europeans of Russia. Life (Basel) 2023; 13:life13020405. [PMID: 36836762 PMCID: PMC9960278 DOI: 10.3390/life13020405] [Citation(s) in RCA: 0] [Impact Index Per Article: 0] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Key Words] [Track Full Text] [Figures] [Journal Information] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 01/09/2023] [Revised: 01/23/2023] [Accepted: 01/29/2023] [Indexed: 02/04/2023] Open
Abstract
This study was conducted to examine the associations between genome-wide association studies (GWAS)-important single nucleotide polymorphisms (SNPs) and knee osteoarthritis (KOA) among Europeans of Russia. The present replicative study ("patient-control" design has been used) was carried out on 1000 DNA samples from KOA (n = 500) and KOA-free (n = 500) participants. Ten GWAS-important for KOA SNPs of eight candidate genes (LYPLAL1, GNL3, GLT8D1, SBNO1, WWP2, NFAT5, TGFA, GDF5) were studied. To assess the link between SNPs and KOA susceptibility, logistic regression (to establish independent SNP effects) and MB-MDR (to identify SNP-SNP interactions) were used. As a result of this genetic analysis, the associations of individual SNPs with KOA have not been proven. Eight loci out of ten tested SNPs interacted with each other (within twelve genetic models) and determined susceptibility to KOA. The greatest contribution to the disease development were made by three polymorphisms/genes such as rs6976 (C>T) GLT8D1, rs56116847 (G>A) SBNO1, rs6499244 (T>A) NFAT5 (each was included in 2/3 [8 out 12] KOA-responsible genetic interaction models). A two-locus epistatic interaction of rs56116847 (G >A) SBNO1 × rs6499244 (T>A) NFAT5 determined the maximum percentage (0.86%) of KOA entropy. KOA-associated SNPs are regulatory polymorphisms that affect the expression/splicing level, epigenetic modification of 72 genes in KOA-pathogenetically significant organs such as skeletal muscles, tibial arteries/nerves, thyroid, adipose tissue, etc. These putative KOA-effector genes are mainly involved in the organization/activity of the exoribonuclease complex and antigen processing/presentation pathways. In conclusion, KOA susceptibility among Europeans of Russia is mediated by intergenic interactions (but not the main effects) of GWAS-important SNPs.

Abstract
Osteoarthritis (OA) is one of the most common diseases in the orthopedic clinic, characterized by progressive cartilage degradation. RNA-binding proteins (RBPs) are capable of binding to RNAs at transcription and translation levels, playing an important role in the pathogenesis of OA. This study aims to investigate the diagnosis values of RBP-related genes in OA. The RBPs were collected from previous studies, and the GSE114007 dataset (control = 18, OA = 20) was downloaded from the Gene Expression Omnibus (GEO) as the training cohort. Through various bioinformatical and machine learning methods, including genomic difference detection, protein-protein interaction network analyses, Lasso regression, univariate logistic regression, Boruta algorithm, and SVM-RFE, RNMT and RBM24 were identified and then included into the random forest (RF) diagnosis model. GSE117999 dataset (control = 10, OA = 10) and clinical samples collected from local hospital (control = 10, OA = 11) were used for external validation. The RF model was a promising tool to diagnose OA in the training dataset (area under curve [AUC] = 1.000, 95% confidence interval [CI] = 1.000-1.000), the GSE117999 cohort (AUC = 0.900, 95% CI = 0.769-1.000), and local samples (AUC = 0.759, 95% CI = 0.568-0.951). Besides, qPCR and Western Blotting experiments showed that RNMT (P < 0.05) and RBM24 (P < 0.01) were both down-regulated in CHON-001 cells with IL-1β treatment. In all, an RF model to diagnose OA based on RNMT and RBM24 in cartilage tissue was constructed, providing a promising clinical tool and possible cut-in points in molecular mechanism clarification.

Abstract
Osteoarthritis (OA) is one of the most popular degenerative joint diseases. The nucleolar GTP binding protein 3 (GNL3) gene encodes guanine nucleotide binding protein-like 3, which is related in cell proliferation, differentiation, and cell cycle regulation. Our study aimed to examine the contribution of GNL3 gene polymorphisms to the risk of hand OA and its related clinical features. A total of 3387 study participants including 1160 patients with hand OA and 2227 controls were recruited in this study. Eleven SNPs in GNL3 gene were selected for genotyping. Genetic association signals were examined using Plink. Relationships between significant SNPs and clinical features of hand OA were also explored. SNP rs11177 was found to be strongly associated with susceptibility of hand OA (P = 4.32 × 10-5). The minor allele of rs11177 was associated with increased susceptibility of hand OA. In addition, significant associations were also identified between genotypes of rs11177 and clinical features of hand OA patients including K-L grade (P < 0.01) and categorized pain scores (P < 0.01). Significant eQTL signals for rs11177 on GNL3 in multiple types of human tissues were also identified in GTEx database. Our results have established the link between GNL3 gene and susceptibility of hand OA.

Abstract
Osteoarthritis (OA) is a common chronic degenerative joint disease worldwide. The pathological features of OA are the erosion of articular cartilage, subchondral bone sclerosis, synovitis, and metabolic disorder. Its progression is characterized by aberrant expression of genes involved in inflammation, proliferation, and metabolism of chondrocytes. Effective therapeutic strategies are limited, as mechanisms underlying OA pathophysiology remain unclear. Significant research efforts are ongoing to elucidate the complex molecular mechanisms underlying OA focused on gene transcription. However, posttranscriptional alterations also play significant function in inflammation and metabolic changes related diseases. RNA binding proteins (RBPs) have been recognized as important regulators in posttranscriptional regulation. RBPs regulate RNA subcellular localization, stability, and translational efficiency by binding to their target mRNAs, thereby controlling their protein expression. However, their role in OA is less clear. Identifying RBPs in OA is of great importance to better understand OA pathophysiology and to figure out potential targets for OA treatment. Hence, in this manuscript, we summarize the recent knowledge on the role of dysregulated RBPs in OA and hope it will provide new insight for OA study and targeted treatment.

Proteomic analysis of hemocyte reveals the immune regulatory mechanisms after the injection of corticosteroid-releasing hormone in mud crab Scylla Paramamosain. J Proteomics 2021; 242:104238. [PMID: 33930554 DOI: 10.1016/j.jprot.2021.104238] [Citation(s) in RCA: 2] [Impact Index Per Article: 0.7] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Key Words] [Journal Information] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 01/26/2021] [Revised: 04/01/2021] [Accepted: 04/09/2021] [Indexed: 02/07/2023]
Abstract
Corticosteroid-releasing hormone (CRH) is a crucial neuroendocrine-immune factor regulating the immune response of Scylla paramamosain. To understand the regulatory mechanisms of CRH in S. paramamosain, the hemolymph of S. paramamosain with injection of CRH (1.5 ng/crab) at 24 h were chosen to perform proteomic analysis in this study. Furthermore, quantitative real-time PCR (RT-PCR) method was used to validate the accuracy of proteomic data at 24 h after CRH injection. The proteomic data showed that 255 DEPs were identified, in which 231 and 24 were up- or down-regulated, respectively. Besides, the results of enriched pathways showed that the DEPs were involved in signaling pathways, cellular immunity, humoral immunity and the response of immune related processes. These results revealed that CRH promoted the activation of signal transduction, regulated immune systems and antioxidation, and enhanced the immune related processes (such as protein synthesis, protein transport, carbohydrate mobilization and energy redistribution). These findings will benefit to foster the understanding on the effects of glucocorticoids on neuroendocrine-immune (NEI) networks of crustacean, and supply a substantial material and foundation for further researching of the NEI response. SIGNIFICANCE: Corticotrophin-releasing hormone (CRH) is a 41-amino acid neuropeptide and has been preliminarily studied in aquatic animals. CRH can regulate many important physiological activities comprising protein synthesis, energy metabolism, growth, breeding and behavior in fish, which play an important roles in neuroendocrine-immune (NEI) regulatory network of fish. The neuroendocrine system of crustacean has a primary research, that inspired by fish NEI network. Despite the research on the neuroendocrine system in crustacean has rapidly increased in recent years, our understanding of the regulation between neuroendocrine system and immune system in crustacean is still limited. The research on the strategy of NEI network in crustaceans becomes a significant issue. In the present study, the isobaric tags for relative and absolute quantification (iTRAQ) technology approach were applied to examine the NEI network of Scylla Paramamosain. control group and treatment group (CRH: 1.5 ng/crab) were settled for the iTRAQ experiment, and sampled at 24 h after CRH injection. The study aimed to gain knowledge on the immune response in Scylla Paramamosain after CRH injection and identify related differentially expressed proteins (DEPs) of the crab. The results of this study provide a preliminary resource for analysis the immune mechanism for crustaceans. In general, our work represents the first report of the utilization of the iTRAQ proteomics method for the study of NEI regulatory network in Scylla Paramamosain after CRH injection. We identified a number of DEPs involved in diverse pathways including immune signaling pathways, cellular immunity, humoral immunity, immune related process. These results demonstrated a very complex network involving immune and multiple related metabolic pathways in hemocytes of Scylla Paramamosain and will be of great value in understanding the crab neuroendocrine-immune immune mechanism.
