Outline of Final Research Achievements |
We made a three-dimensional cartilage construct. ATDC5 cells were cultured in alginate beads and seeded within collagen scaffold. Cyclic compressive loading was applied to the cartilage constructs using a cyclic load bioreactor. The mRNA levels of ADAMTS4 and IL-1R1 were substantially increased by the excessive compressive stress. Compressive stress plus subtle level of IL-1β upregulated ADAMTS4 and IL-1R1 expressions. TRPV4 regulated ADAMTS4 and IL-1R1 mRNA levels by cyclic compressive stress. The expression of the IL-1R1 on the surface of chondrocytes would be stimulated by compressive mechanical stress, and subsequent increment of IL-1 susceptibility would be implicated in the OA pathology. TRPV4 channel regulation is one of the most important mechanosensor that controls IL-1 susceptibility and prevents development of OA.
