AbstractCartilage regeneration with cell-free matrices has developed from matrix-associated autologous cartilage cell transplantation (MACT) over ten years ago. Adjustments to the legal framework and higher hurdles for cell therapy have led to the procedures being established as an independent alternative to MACT. These procedures, which can be classified as matrix-induced autologous cartilage regeneration (MACR), all rely on the chemotactic stimulus of a cross-linked matrix, which mostly consists of collagens. Given the example of a commercially available type I collagen hydrogel, the state of clinical experience with MACR shall be summarized and an outlook on the development of the method shall be provided. It has been demonstrated in the clinical case series summarized here over the past few years that the use of the matrix is not only safe but also yields good clinical-functional and MR-tomographic results for both small (~ 10 mm) and large (> 10 mm) focal cartilage lesions. Depending on the size of the defect, MACR with a collagen type I matrix plays an important role as an alternative treatment method, in direct competition with both: microfracture and MACT.

Deer Antler

Deer antlers are a rare example of mammalian epimorphic regeneration. Each year, the antlers re-grow by a modified endochondral ossification process that involves extensive remodelling of cartilage by osteoclasts. This study identified regenerating antler cartilage as a site of osteoclastogenesis in vivo. An in vitro model was then developed to study antler osteoclast differentiation. Cultured as a high-density micromass, cells from non-mineralised cartilage supported the differentiation of large numbers of osteoclast-like multinucleated cells (MNCs) in the absence of factors normally required for osteoclastogenesis. After 48 h of culture, tartrate-resistant acid phosphatase (TRAP)-positive mononuclear cells (osteoclast precursors) were visible, and by day 14 a large number of TRAP-positive MNCs had formed (783+/−200 per well, mean +/− s.e.m., N=4). Reverse transcriptase/polymerase chain reaction (RT-PCR) showed that receptor activator of NF κ B ligand (RANKL) and macrophage colony stimulating factor (M-CSF) mRNAs were expressed in micromass cultures. Antler MNCs have the phenotype of osteoclasts from mammalian bone; they expressed TRAP, vitronectin and calcitonin receptors and, when cultured on dentine, formed F-actin rings and large resorption pits. When cultured on glass, antler MNCs appeared to digest the matrix of the micromass and endocytose type I collagen. Matrix metalloproteinase-9 (MMP-9) may play a role in the resorption of this non-mineralised matrix since it is highly expressed in 100 % of MNCs. In contrast, cathepsin K, another enzyme expressed in osteoclasts from bone, is only highly expressed in resorbing MNCs cultured on dentine. This study identifies the deer antler as a valuable model that can be used to study the differentiation and function of osteoclasts in adult regenerating mineralised tissues.

Growth Factor Beta

Transforming growth factor-beta, a potent modulator of cell function, induces fibroblasts cultured on plastic to increase collagen synthesis. In 5- and 7-day porcine skin wounds, which have minimal to moderate collagen matrix, respectively, transforming growth factor-beta and type I procollagen were coordinately expressed throughout the granulation tissue. However, in 10-day collagen-rich granulation tissue type I procollagen expression diminished despite persistence of transforming growth factor-beta. To investigate whether collagen matrix attenuates the collagen-synthetic response of fibroblasts to transforming growth factor-beta, we cultured human dermal fibroblasts in conditions that simulate collagen-rich granulation tissue. Therefore, human dermal fibroblasts were suspended in attached collagen gels and collagen and noncollagen production was assayed in the absence and presence of transforming growth factor-beta. Although transforming growth factor-beta stimulated collagen synthesis by fibroblasts cultured in the collagen gels, these fibroblasts consistently produced less collagen than similarly treated fibroblasts cultured on plastic. This phenomenon was not secondary to nonspecific binding of transforming growth factor-beta to the collagen matrix. Fibroblasts cultured in a fibrin gel responded to transforming growth factor-beta similarly to fibroblasts cultured on plastic. Using immunofluorescence probes to type I procollagen, we observed that transforming growth factor-beta increased type I procollagen expression in most fibroblasts cultured on plastic, but only in occasional fibroblasts cultured in collagen gels. From these data we conclude that collagen matrices attenuate the collagen synthetic response of fibroblast to transforming growth factor-beta in vitro and possibly in vivo.

Background/Aims: This study investigated the effect of silencing TOB1 (Transducer of ERBB2, 1) expression in bone marrow-derived mesenchymal stem cells (MSCs) on MSC-facilitated tendon-bone healing in a rat supraspinatus repair model. Methods: Rat MSCs were transduced with a recombinant lentivirus encoding short hairpin RNA (shRNA) against TOB1. MSC cell proliferation was analyzed by 3-(4,5-dimethylthiazol-2-yl)-2,5-diphenyltetrazolium bromide (MTT) assays. The effect of MSCs with TOB1 deficiency on tendon-bone healing in a rat rotator cuff repair model was evaluated by biomechanical testing, histological analysis and collagen type I and II gene expression. An upstream regulator (miR-218) of TOB1 was determined in MSCs. Results: We found that knockdown of TOB1 significantly increased the proliferative activity of rat MSCs in vitro. When MSCs with TOB1 deficiency were injected into injured rat supraspinatus tendon-bone junctions, the effect on tendon-bone healing was enhanced compared to treatment with control MSCs with normal TOB1 expression, as evidenced by elevated levels of ultimate load to failure and stiffness, increased amount of fibrocartilage and augmented expression of collagen type I and type II genes. In addition, we found that the TOB1 3′ untranslated region is a direct target of miR-218. Similar to the effect of TOB1 deficiency, overexpression of miR-218 effectively promoted tendon-bone healing in rat. Conclusion: These results suggest that TOB1 may play a negative role in the effect of MSCs on tendon-bone healing, and imply that expression of TOB1 may be regulated by miR-218.

Introduction: Use of cardiac mesenchymal cells (CMCs) has been shown to improve cardiac function following myocardial infarction. Main drawback in cardiac cell therapy is the major loss of injected cells within few hours. Increase the retention of these injected cells could increase their efficacy, where cardiac patches with various cell types showed better outcome. Among, collagen patch plays lead role as a cell-laden matrix in cardiac tissue engineering. Creating a detailed understanding of how collagen matrix changes the cellular phenotype could provide seminal insights to regeneration therapy. Hypothesis: Growing CMCs in three dimensional (3D) collagen matrix could alter the expression of extracellular matrix (ECM) and adhesion molecules, which may enhance their efficacy. Methods: The bovine type I collagen was chemically modified and solubilized in culture medium with photo-initiator. The mouse CMCs were isolated and resuspended in collagen solution, printed using 3D bioprinter and UV-crosslinked to form 3D-CMC construct. The 3D-CMC construct was submerged in growth medium and cultured for 48h and analyzed for the expression of ECM and adhesion molecules (n=5/group). CMCs cultured in regular plastic tissue culture dish was used as control. Results: RT profiler array showed changes in the ECM and adhesion molecules expression, specifically certain integrins and matrix metalloproteinases (MMPs) in CMCs cultured 3D collagen construct compared to 2D monolayer. Subsequent qRT-PCR analysis revealed significant (p<0.01) upregulation of integrins such as Itga2 (2.96±0.13), Itgb1 (3.18±0.2) and Itgb3 (2.4±0.27) and MMPs such as MMP13 (37.2±3.36), MMP9 (5.23±1.06) and MMP3 (7.14±2.07). Western blot analysis further confirmed significant elevation of these integrins and matrix metalloproteinases at protein level. Collagen encapsulation did not alter the expression of N-cadherin in CMCs, which is a potential mesenchymal cadherin adhesion molecule. Conclusion: Integrin αβ heterodimers transduce signals that facilitate cell homing, migration, survival and differentiation. Similarly, MMPs plays vital role in cell migration and proliferation. Our results demonstrate that the 3D-collagen Niche enhances the expression of certain integrins and MMPs in CMCs. This suggest that the efficacy of CMCs could be magnified by providing 3D architecture with collagen matrix and further in vivo experiments would reveal functional benefits from CMCs for clinical use.
