Abstract
OBJECTIVE Vitrification of articular cartilage (AC) is a promising technique which may enable long-term tissue banking of AC allografts. We previously developed a 2-step, dual-temperature, multi-cryoprotectant agent (CPA) loading protocol to cryopreserve particulated AC (1 mm3 cubes). Furthermore, we also determined that the inclusion of ascorbic acid (AA) effectively mitigates CPA toxicity in cryopreserved AC. Prior to clinical translation, chondrocytes must remain viable after tissue re-warming and before transplantation. However, the effects of short-term hypothermic storage of particulated AC after vitrification and re-warming are not documented. This study evaluated the chondrocyte viability of post-vitrified particulated AC during a 7-day tissue storage period at 4 °C. We hypothesized that porcine particulated AC could be stored for up to 7 days after successful vitrification without significant loss of cell viability, and these results would be enhanced when cartilage is incubated in storage medium supplemented with clinical grade AA. DESIGN Three experimental groups were examined at 5 time points: a fresh control (only incubated in medium), a vitrified - AA group, and a vitrified + AA group (N = 7). RESULTS There was a mild decline in cell viability but both treatment groups maintained a viability of greater than 80% viable cells which is acceptable for clinical translation. CONCLUSION We determined that particulated AC can be stored for up to 7 days after successful vitrification without a clinically significant decline in chondrocyte viability. This information can be used to guide tissue banks regarding the implementation of AC vitrification to increase cartilage allograft availability.

[PMID: 38238250 PMCID: PMC10925494 DOI: 10.1111/os.13991] [Citation(s) in RCA: 0] [Impact Index Per Article: 0] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Key Words] [MESH Headings] [Grants] [Track Full Text] [Journal Information] [Submit a Manuscript] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 07/20/2023] [Revised: 12/06/2023] [Accepted: 12/19/2023] [Indexed: 03/12/2024] Open
Abstract
OBJECTIVES The current clinical pulse lavage technique for flushing fresh osteochondral allografts (OCAs) to remove immunogenic elements from the subchondral bone is ineffective. This study aimed to identify the optimal method for removing immunogenic elements from OCAs. METHODS We examined five methods for the physical removal of immunogenic elements from OCAs from the femoral condyle of porcine knees. We distributed the OCAs randomly into the following seven groups: (1) control, (2) saline, (3) ultrasound, (4) vortex vibration (VV), (5) low-pulse lavage (LPL), (6) high-pulse lavage (HPL), and (7) high-speed centrifugation (HSC). OCAs were evaluated using weight measurement, micro-computed tomography (micro-CT), macroscopic and histological evaluation, DNA quantification, and chondrocyte activity testing. Additionally, the subchondral bone was zoned to assess the bone marrow and nucleated cell contents. One-way ANOVA and paired two-tailed Student's t-test are used for statistical analysis. RESULTS Histological evaluation and DNA quantification showed no significant reduction in marrow elements compared to the control group after the OCAs were treated with saline, ultrasound, or VV treatments; however, there was a significant reduction in marrow elements after LPL, HPL, and HSC treatments. Furthermore, HSC more effectively reduced the marrow elements of OCAs in the middle and deep zones compared with LPL (p < 0.0001) and HPL (p < 0.0001). Macroscopic evaluation revealed a significant reduction in blood, lipid, and marrow elements in the subchondral bone after HSC. Micro-CT, histological analyses, and chondrocyte viability results showed that HSC did not damage the subchondral bone and cartilage; however, LPL and HPL may damage the subchondral bone. CONCLUSION HSC may play an important role in decreasing immunogenicity and therefore potentially increasing the success of OCA transplantation.

A Comparative Study Using Fluorescent Confocal Microscopy and Flow Cytometry to Evaluate Chondrocyte Viability in Human Osteochondral Allografts. Bioengineering (Basel) 2022; 9:bioengineering9100515. [DOI: 10.3390/bioengineering9100515] [Citation(s) in RCA: 0] [Impact Index Per Article: 0] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Track Full Text] [Journal Information] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 08/29/2022] [Revised: 09/13/2022] [Accepted: 09/25/2022] [Indexed: 11/16/2022] Open
Abstract
The preservation conditions of fresh osteochondral allografts for clinical applications are critical due their objective: to transplant mature hyaline cartilage containing viable chondrocytes, maintaining their metabolic activity and also preserving the structural and functional characteristics of the extracellular matrix. The aim of the present study was to compare fluorescence confocal microscopy and flow cytometry techniques to evaluate the viability of the chondrocytes present in the osteochondral tissue, in order to determine their effectiveness and thus ensure reproducibility and robustness of the analysis. To this end, osteochondral allografts from human cadaveric donors were preserved at 4 °C for 3 weeks in a preservation medium supplemented with antibiotic and antifungal agents. Cell viability of chondrocytes was determined by monitoring the cartilage for 3 weeks of preservation by confocal fluorescence microscopy and flow cytometry, obtaining cell viabilities of 83.7 ± 2.6% and 55.8 ± 7.8% for week three, respectively. The confocal fluorescence microscopy approach is more advantageous and accurate, as it correlates better with actual cell viability values for monitoring osteochondral graft preservation, detecting only the cells that died a natural death associated with the preservation method.

Abstract
High-throughput microRNA sequencing was performed during differentiation of MC3T3-E1 osteoblasts to develop working hypotheses for specific microRNAs that control osteogenesis. The expression data show that miR-101a, which targets the mRNAs for the epigenetic enzyme Ezh2 and many other proteins, is highly upregulated during osteoblast differentiation and robustly expressed in mouse calvaria. Transient elevation of miR-101a suppresses Ezh2 levels, reduces tri-methylation of lysine 27 in histone 3 (H3K27me3; a heterochromatic mark catalyzed by Ezh2), and accelerates mineralization of MC3T3-E1 osteoblasts. We also examined skeletal phenotypes of an inducible miR-101a transgene under direct control of doxycycline administration. Experimental controls and mir-101a over-expressing mice were exposed to doxycycline in utero and postnatally (up to 8 weeks of age) to maximize penetrance of skeletal phenotypes. Male mice that over-express miR-101a have increased total body weight and longer femora. MicroCT analysis indicate that these mice have increased trabecular bone volume fraction, trabecular number and trabecular thickness with reduced trabecular spacing as compared to controls. Histomorphometric analysis demonstrates a significant reduction in osteoid volume to bone volume and osteoid surface to bone surface. Remarkably, while female mice also exhibit a significant increase in bone length, no significant changes were noted by microCT (trabecular bone parameters) and histomorphometry (osteoid parameters). Hence, miR-101a upregulation during osteoblast maturation and the concomitant reduction in Ezh2 mediated H3K27me3 levels may contribute to the enhanced trabecular bone parameters in male mice. However, the sex-specific effect of miR-101a indicates that more intricate epigenetic mechanisms mediate physiological control of bone formation and homeostasis.

Abstract
BACKGROUND Storage procedures and parameters have a significant influence on the health of fresh osteochondral allograft (OCA) cartilage. To date, there is a lack of agreement on the optimal storage conditions for OCAs. PURPOSE To systematically review the literature on (1) experimental designs and reporting of key variables of ex vivo (laboratory) studies, (2) the effects of various storage solutions and conditions on cartilage health ex vivo, and (3) in vivo animal studies and human clinical studies evaluating the effect of fresh OCA storage on osteochondral repair and outcomes. STUDY DESIGN Systematic review; Level of evidence, 5. METHODS A systematic review was performed using the PubMed, Embase, and Cochrane databases. The inclusion criteria were laboratory studies (ex vivo) reporting cartilage health outcomes after prolonged storage (>3 days) of fresh osteochondral or chondral tissue explants and animal studies (in vivo) reporting outcomes of fresh OCA. The inclusion criteria for clinical studies were studies (>5 patients) that analyzed the relationship of storage time or chondrocyte viability at time of implantation to patient outcomes. Frozen, cryopreserved, decellularized, synthetic, or tissue-engineered grafts were excluded. RESULTS A total of 55 peer-reviewed articles met the inclusion criteria. Ex vivo studies reported a spectrum of tissue sources and storage solutions and conditions, although the majority of studies lacked complete reporting of key variables, including storage solution formula and environmental conditions. The effect of various conditions (eg, temperature) and storage solutions on cartilage health were inconsistent. Although 60% of animal models suggest that storage time may influence outcomes and 80% indicate inferior outcomes with frozen OCA as compared with fresh OCA, 75% of clinical studies report no correlation between storage time and outcomes. CONCLUSION Given the variability in experimental designs and lack of reporting across studies, it is still not possible to determine optimal storage conditions, although animal studies suggest that storage time and chondrocyte viability influence osteochondral repair outcomes. A list of recommendations was developed to encourage reporting of key variables, such as media formulation, environmental factors, and methodologies used. High-quality clinical data are needed to investigate the effects of storage and graft health on outcomes.

Abstract
OBJECTIVE The purpose of the current study is to evaluate the clinical and radiographic outcomes at early to midterm follow-up between fresh precut cores versus hemi-condylar osteochondral allograft (OCAs) in the treatment of symptomatic osteochondral lesions. DESIGN A retrospective review of patients who underwent an OCA was performed. Patient matching between those with OCA harvested from an allograft condyle/patella or a fresh precut allograft core was performed to generate 2 comparable groups. The cartilage at the graft site was assessed with use of a modified Magnetic Resonance Observation of Cartilage Repair Tissue (MOCART) scoring system and patient-reported outcomes were collected. RESULTS Overall, 52 total patients who underwent OCA with either fresh precut OCA cores (n = 26) and hemi-condylar OCA (n = 26) were pair matched at a mean follow-up of 34.0 months (range 12 months to 99 months). The mean ages were 31.5 ± 10.7 for fresh precut cores and 30.9 ± 9.8 for hemi-condylar (P = 0.673). Males accounted for 36.4% of the overall cohort, and the mean lesion size for fresh precut OCA core was 19.6 mm2 compared to 21.2 mm2 for whole condyle (P = 0.178). There was no significant difference in patient-reported outcomes including Visual Analogue Scale, Knee Injury and Osteoarthritis Outcome Score for Joint Replacement, and Tegner (P > 0.5 for each), or in MOCART score (69.2 vs. 68.3, P = 0.93). CONCLUSIONS This study found that there was no difference in patient-reported clinical outcomes or MOCART scores following OCA implantation using fresh precut OCA cores or size matched condylar grafts at early to midterm follow-up.

Abstract
Osteoarthritis (OA) is characterized by pain and declining gait function associated with degeneration of cartilage. A severe hypoxic environment occurs due to tissue injury in the joint cavity and may aggravate the development of OA. In this study, the effects of severe hypoxia and treatment with mechano growth factor (MGF) E peptide on metabolism of the extracellular matrix (ECM) during the progression of OA were determined. The results showed that cell viability, cell proliferation, and type II collagen expression in chondrocytes were significantly inhibited by cobalt chloride (CoCl2)-simulated severe hypoxia, whereas cell apoptosis and expression levels of hypoxia inducible factor 1 alpha, type I collagen, and matrix metalloproteinases 1/13 were clearly induced. Pretreatment with MGF E peptide reduced the abovementioned adverse effects induced by CoCl2-simulated severe hypoxia in chondrocytes. Pretreatment also upregulated the proliferation of chondrocytes under severe hypoxia through the PI3K-Akt and MEK-ERK1/2 signaling pathways. In a rat model of monosodium iodoacetate (MIA)-induced OA. MIA treatment induced tissue necrosis and cartilage degeneration, and histological score was significantly decreased. The levels of type II collagen and aggrecan were reduced after MIA treatment for 4 or 6 weeks, and abnormal distribution of ECM occurred in the inner epicondyle after 6 weeks. MGF E peptide also reduced the progression of MIA-induced OA by retarding cartilage degeneration, upregulating type II collagen synthesis, and improving ECM distribution after 4 or 6 weeks. Our findings suggest that MGF attenuates the progression of OA, and thus may be applied for the treatment of OA in the clinic.
