Abstract
BACKGROUND Developmental dysplasia of the hip (DDH) is a congenital condition affecting 2-3% of all newborns. DDH increases the risk of osteoarthritis and is the cause of 30% of all total hip arthroplasties in adults < 40 years of age. We aim to explore the genetic background of DDH in order to improve diagnosis and personalize treatment. METHODS We conducted a structured literature review using PRISMA guidelines searching the Medline, Embase and Cochrane databases. We included 31 case control studies examining single nucleotide polymorphisms (SNPs) in non-syndromic DDH. RESULTS A total of 73 papers were included for full text review, of which 31 were single nucleotide polymorphism (SNP) case/control association studies. The literature review revealed that the majority of published papers on the genetics of DDH were mostly underpowered for detection of any significant association. One large genome wide association study has been published (N = 9,915), establishing GDF5 as a plausible risk factor. CONCLUSIONS DDH is known to be congenital and heritable, with family occurrence of DDH already included as a risk factor in most screening programs. Despite this, high quality genetic research is scarce and no genetic risk factors have been soundly established, prompting the need for more research.

Abstract
BACKGROUND IGF-1 (insulin-like growth factor-1) is an important regulator of bone formation. Its deficiency has been associated with fetal growth disorders and hip dysplasia. The aim of this study was to evaluate whether IGF-1, IGF-BP3 (insulin like growth factorbinding protein 3), and IGF-BP5 levels in the umbilical cord blood can be predictive for early diagnosis of DDH. METHODS Umbilical cord blood samples were collected from 860 mothers with pregnancies at high risk for DDH between October 2020 and January 2021. Mothers at 37-42 weeks of gestation, with risk factors for DDH, who delivered healthy infants were included. Blood samples were collected during delivery. Each eligible infant was medically followed up and underwent a hip ultrasound in the postnatal 2nd or 3rd month. Infants diagnosed with DDH were matched with a healthy cohort in terms of sex, birth weight, maternal age, and gestational week, and the IGF-1, IGF-BP3 and IGF-BP5 levels were studied and compared. RESULTS Evaluation was made of 20 infants diagnosed with DDH and 60 healthy infants. Of the total 80 infants, 72.5% were female.The umbilical cord blood levels of IGF-1 and IGF-BP3 were similar in both groups. The IGF-BP5 values were significantly lower in the DDH patient group. Except for DDH diagnosis, the other categorical variables of the study did not appear to influence the levels of any of the IGFs. DISCUSSION Umbilical blood samples could potentially help diagnose DDH. The levels of IGF-BP5 were shown to be significantly lower in infants with DDH.

Abstract
The growth hormone (GH)/insulin-like growth factor (IGF) axis plays fundamental roles during development, maturation, and aging. Members of this axis, composed of various ligands, receptors, and binding proteins, are regulated in a tissue- and time-specific manner that requires precise control that is not completely understood. Some of the most recent advances in understanding the implications of this axis in human growth are derived from the identifications of new mutations in the gene encoding the pregnancy-associated plasma protein PAPP-A2 protease that liberates IGFs from their carrier proteins in a selective manner to allow binding to the IGF receptor 1. The identification of three nonrelated families with mutations in the PAPP-A2 gene has shed light on how this protease affects human physiology. This review summarizes our understanding of the implications of PAPP-A2 in growth physiology, obtained from studies in genetically modified animal models and the PAPP-A2 deficient patients known to date.

Abstract
BACKGROUND Developmental dysplasia of the hip (DDH) is a highly prevalent hip disease among children. However, its pathogenesis remains unclear. MicroRNAs (miRNA) are important regulators of cartilage development. In a previous study, high-throughput miRNA sequencing of tissue samples from an animal model of DDH showed a low level of miR-1-3p in the cartilage of the acetabular roof (ARC), but its role in DDH pathogenesis was not addressed. Therefore, our aim here was to investigate the effects of miR-1-3p in the ARC. METHODS The diagnosis of acetabular dysplasia was confirmed with X-ray examination, while imaging and HE staining were conducted to further evaluate the ARC thickness in each animal model. FISH was employed to verify miR-1-3p expression in the ARC and chondrocytes. The miR-1-3p target genes were predicted by a bioinformatics database. A dual-luciferase reporter assay was used to confirm the targeting relationship between miR-1-3p and SOX9. The gene expression of miR-1-3p, SOX9, RUNX2 and collagen type X was evaluated by qPCR analysis. The protein expression of SOX9, RUNX2 and collagen type X was detected by western blot analysis. The levels of SOX9, RUNX2, and collagen type X in the ARC were further assessed via immunohistochemistry analysis. Finally, Alizarin Red S staining was used to observe the mineralized nodules produced by the chondrocytes. RESULTS We observed low expression of miR-1-3p in the ARC of animals with DDH. SOX9 is a miR-1-3p target gene. Using miR-1-3p silencing technology in vitro, we demonstrated significantly reduced chondrocyte-generated mineralized nodules compared to those of the control. We also confirmed that with miR-1-3p silencing, SOX9 expression was upregulated, whereas the expression of genes associated with endochondral osteogenesis such as RUNX2 and collagen type X was downregulated. To confirm the involvement of miR-1-3p silencing in abnormal ossification through SOX9, we also performed a rescue experiment in which SOX9 silencing restored the low expression of RUNX2 and collagen type X produced by downregulated miR-1-3p expression. Finally, the elevated SOX9 levels and reduced RUNX2 and collagen type X levels in the ARC of rabbits with DDH were also verified using immunohistochemistry, RT-PCR, and western blots. CONCLUSION The relatively low expression of miR-1-3p in the ARC may be the cause of abnormal endochondral ossification in the acetabular roof of animals with DDH.

[PMID: 32396235 DOI: 10.1002/jor.24713] [Citation(s) in RCA: 11] [Impact Index Per Article: 2.8] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Key Words] [Track Full Text] [Journal Information] [Submit a Manuscript] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 11/14/2019] [Revised: 05/06/2020] [Accepted: 05/08/2020] [Indexed: 02/04/2023]
Abstract
Recent studies have shown that developmental dysplasia of the hip (DDH) during childhood and in animal models is associated with impaired endochondral ossification of the roof of the acetabulum, yet the molecular mechanism of this pathology remains unknown. To address this, an animal model of DDH was established in 4-week-old New Zealand white rabbits by cast immobilization of knee extension. Fifty-six rabbits of DDH were involved in this study, including 21 male rabbits and 25 female rabbits. High-throughput RNA sequencing identified 18 differentially expressed microRNAs; miR-129-5p downregulation was further confirmed by quantitative polymerase chain reaction. Bioinformatics and luciferase reporter assay identified growth differentiation factor 11 (GDF11) as the target gene of miR-129-5p in vitro. miR-129-5p downregulation increased GDF11 expression, which induced the phosphorylation of SMAD family member 3. As a result, the expression of runt-related transcription factor 2, Indian hedgehog homolog, and collagen type X was inhibited in vitro. Meanwhile, Alizarin Red S and Von Kossa staining revealed reduced formation of mineralized nodules by chondrocytes after miR-129-5P downregulation compared with the control. Additionally, proliferation assays and flow cytometry confirmed the suppression of chondrocyte proliferation and G1 cell cycle arrest following miR-129-5p downregulation. These findings indicate that miR-129-5p is able to suppress chondrocyte proliferation and hypertrophic differentiation and decrease mineralization via the miR-129-5p/GDF11/SMAD3 axis. This could present the underlying cause for the observed DDH-associated ossification impairment of the acetabular roof.

[PMID: 32058630 DOI: 10.1096/fj.201901915r] [Citation(s) in RCA: 6] [Impact Index Per Article: 1.5] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Key Words] [Track Full Text] [Journal Information] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 07/30/2019] [Revised: 12/29/2019] [Accepted: 01/20/2020] [Indexed: 12/17/2022]
Abstract
Chondrocyte apoptosis plays an important role in the developmental dysplasia of the hip (DDH) development. It has been found that WNT1 inducible signaling pathway protein 2 (WISP-2) and peroxisome proliferator-activated receptor γ (PPARγ) are involved in cell apoptosis. In this study, we performed the straight-leg swaddling DDH rat model and we found that cartilage degradation and chondrocyte apoptosis were remarkably increased in DDH rats in vivo. Moreover, we found that WISP-2 was upregulated in hip acetabular cartilage of DDH rats compared to control rats. Next, the effects of WISP-2 on chondrocyte apoptosis and its possible underlying mechanism were examined in vitro. The lentivirus-mediated gain- and loss-of-function experiments of WISP-2 and peroxisome proliferator-activated receptor γ (PPARγ) for cell viability and apoptosis were performed in primary rat chondrocytes. The results showed that the overexpression of WISP-2 induced chondrocyte apoptosis, and knockdown of WISP-2 could suppress the chondrocyte apoptosis induced by advanced glycation end products (AGE). Additionally, WISP-2 could negatively regulate the expression of PPARγ in chondrocytes. Moreover, the knockdown of PPARγ promoted chondrocyte apoptosis and overexpression of PPARγ abated the increased apoptosis and decreased cell viability of chondrocytes induced by WISP-2. This study demonstrated that WISP-2 might contribute to chondrocyte apoptosis of hip acetabular cartilage through regulating PPARγ expression and activation, which may play an important role in the development of DDH.

Abstract
INTRODUCTION Developmental dysplasia of the hip (DDH) is a major cause of disability in children, and the genetic mechanism of this disease remains unclear. In our previous study, we found that pregnancy-associated plasma protein-A2 (PAPP-A2) was associated with DDH significantly. OBJECTIVES The aim of this study was to investigate the insulin-like growth factor (IGF) expression and collagen synthesis as well as cartilage proliferation-related proteins in the case of abnormal expression of Pappa2 in mice to research the relationship between PAPP-A2 and the pathological changes of DDH. METHODS In vivo animal experiments, the mice were directly injected with 50 µl of Cas9/PAPP-A2 sgRNA lentiviruses around the hip to downregulate the Pappa2 gene expression and injected with control lentiviruses on the other side, then to observe the expression and localization of related proteins. And in an in vitro experiment, mice fibroblasts and primary chondrocytes were cultured with insulin-like growth factor binding protein-5 (IGFBP-5) protein, PAPP-A2 protein and Cas9/PAPP-A2 sgRNA lentiviruses to detect of related proteins and mRNA expression. RESULTS Cartilage proliferation-related proteins demonstrated a significant decrease in the PAPP-A2 knockdown hips acetabulum and femoral head cartilage, meanwhile the IGF expression was also downregulated in the soft tissue around the acetabulum compared with the control hips. Furthermore, the role PAPP-A2 played in chondrocytes and fibroblasts was the same as in the in vivo experiments, downregulation of PAPP-A2 expression or upregulation of IGFBP-5 expression can reduce collagen synthesis and cartilage proliferation. CONCLUSIONS PAPP-A2 may be involved in the development of the mouse hip joint by interfering the fibrous and cartilaginous metabolism via IGF pathway-associated proteins pathway.
