FGFR2功能增强对小鼠下颌骨髁突发育影响

成纤维细胞生长因子受体2(Fibroblast growth factor receptor, FGFR2)是参与调控骨骼发育的重要分子,在调控软骨内成骨过程中发挥着重要作用。为了探讨FGFR2功能增强对小鼠下颌骨髁突生长发育的影响,文章以FGFR2功能增强型点突变(Fgfr2^+/S252W)小鼠为研究对象,采用番红固绿染色研究Fgfr2^+/S252W小鼠下颌骨髁突不同生长发育阶段的组织形态;利用免疫细胞化学染色和实时荧光定量PCR方法检测X型胶原(Col X)在3周龄小鼠髁突肥大软骨细胞中的表达。结果显示,1周龄、3周龄和6周龄突变型小鼠下颌骨髁突的软骨细胞层宽度都比同窝野生型窄,钙化软骨细胞层退化时间早,骨小梁钙化绿染程度深;Col X在突变型小鼠下颌骨髁突的表达高于同窝野生型小鼠(P<0.001)。结果表明,FGFR2功能增强可导致小鼠下颌骨髁突软骨层组织形态异常,抑制髁突软骨内成骨,从而导致下颌骨髁突发育畸形。     

Corticosteroid-incuded changes in glucose metabolism of chondrocytes

Summary Immature mice were treated for up to 12 weeks with daily doses of triamcinolone diacetate. Using quantitative histochemical methods, the proximal epiphyseal plate of the humerus was studied at regular intervals. By the tenth injection significant decrease was noted in the acid glycosaminoglycans content (25%) and in the neutral mucopolysaccharides (30%). Concomitantly, a marked increase was noted in the intracellular depots of glycogen (70%). It is suggested that the hormone's antiglycolytic effect in cartilage caused the glucose metabolic pathway to divert in the direction of glycogen synthesis, and thereby interfered with the normal synthetic pathway of the chondrocytes. The hormone's primary effect on the cells' hexose metabolism could be responsible, at least in part, for its inhibitory influence on bone growth.Supported in part by Technion Research Grant No. 180-069Presented in part at the Fifth International Congress of Histochemistry and Cytochemistry held in Bucharest, 1976

Gender dependent effects of testosterone and 17β-estradiol on bone growth and modelling in young mice

This study examined the effects of estrogen (17β-estradiol) and testosterone on the growth of long bones in male and female mice, with and without gonadectomy. Weight and nose-to-tail length were determined at 3 weeks of age at time of gonadectomy, 7 days later at the onset of hormone therapy, and throughout the treatment period. Gonadectomized mice exhibited an initial weight gain during the pretreatment period but length was unaffected. Hormone treatment altered weight gain in surgical and intact animals in a gender- and hormone-dependent manner. Estradiol enhanced weight gain in intact mice, but inhibited weight gain in ovariectomized mice. Lower doses of estradiol increased weight gain in orchiectomized mice at early time points. Testosterone increased weight in intact females and males, but not in gonadectomized mice. Estradiol increased nose-to-tail length in intact females at early time points, but inhibited length in ovariectomized females at later times, and it decreased length in intact males. Testosterone increased length in normal females and normal males. Serum Ca was unaffected by ovariectomy, but orchiectomy resulted in decreased levels. Estradiol reduced serum Ca in gonadectomized animals; serum Ca was increased by estradiol treatment in intact females. Changes in tibial bone weight, ash weight and mineral composition, and relative sizes of epiphyseal and metaphyseal bone were gender-, gonadectomy- and hormone-specific. Bone weight was greater in ovariectomized mice. Ash weight per bone was comparable, but there was an increase in Ca and P content with ovariectomy. Estradiol increased bone weight, ash content, and bone Ca and P in ovariectomized and intact females. Orchiectomy alone did not alter bone weight, ash content, or Ca and P, but orchiectomized mice were sensitive to estradiol; all parameters were increased in the orchiectomized animals treated with estradiol. Analysis of the ash content and Ca and P per mg bone, rather than per bone, demonstrated estradiol and testosterone alter net bone formation, but not the amount of mineral per unit bone. Ovariectomy increased hypertrophic cartilage. While estradiol did not alter tibial area in ovariectomized mice, it caused an increase in intact females. The total amount of growth plate cartilage in ovariectomized animals was decreased by estradiol to levels typical of intact animals due to a greater decrease in the hypertrophic cartilage in the ovariectomized mice, as well as a greater increase in metaphyseal bone area. Testosterone had no effect on these parameters in the females. Orchiectomy decreased the amount of growth plate cartilage, but increased the hypertrophic zone. Estradiol increased growth plate cartilage in intact male mice, but decreased it in orchiectomized mice. This difference was also seen in the hypertrophic zone. Total growth plate cartilage and hypertrophic cartilage were increased by testosterone in intact males, whereas metaphyseal and epiphyseal bone area were decreased. The results show for the first time that there is a gender-specific response in both male and female mice to both estradiol and testosterone, whether or not the animals have been gonadectomized. For many parameters, orchiectomized mice behave like females in response to both sex steroids, indicating that the male gonad is needed for mouse bone to exhibit the male phenotypic response to estradiol and testosterone.     

Growth and development in the saddle-back tamarin: The sequence and timing of dental eruption and epiphyseal union

A cross-sectional sample of 121 colony-born saddle-back tamarins, Saguinus fuscicollis, was examined to identify the sequence and timing of dental eruption and epiphyseal union. The state of dental development of the deciduous and permanent dentitions was recorded as erupted or non-erupted on the basis of gingival penetration. Eighteen areas of union of long bone epiphyseal and other secondary centers, the union of the primary elements of the innominate, and the spheno-occipital synchondrosis were examined. The state of union at the areas was recorded on a three-point scale of not united, uniting, and united. The data indicated that deciduous incisors and canines were present at birth and that all deciduous teeth were erupted by 12 weeks. The first permanent tooth, M(1), erupted between weeks 16 and 23; the permanent dentition was fully erupted by 45 weeks. Union of the long bone epiphyses began in the third month at the distal humerus and continued until the first quarter of the second year. The secondary centers at the ischial tuberosity and iliac crest were united slightly later than four and six years of age, respectively. Regression analysis of the data indicate their potential use as parameters for predicting age in feral specimens.     

Decreased body weight in young Osterix-Cre transgenic mice results in delayed cortical bone expansion and accrual

Conditional gene inactivation using the Cre/loxP system has lead to significant advances in our understanding of the function of genes in a wide range of disciplines. It is becoming increasingly apparent in the literature, that Cre transgenic mice may themselves have a phenotype. In the following study we describe the bone phenotype of a commonly used Cre transgenic mouse line to study osteoblasts, the Osx-GFP::Cre (Osx-Cre) mice. Cortical and trabecular bone parameters were determined in the femurs of Osx-Cre mice at 6 and 12?weeks of age by microtomography (μCT). At 6?weeks of age, Osx-Cre mice had reduced body weight by 22% (P?相似文献   

Correlation of bone mineralization in the radius and humerus of well premature neonates over the first 4 months of life

To determine how well mineralization correlates in the radius and humerus of neonates, we have measured with photon absorptiometry the bone mineral content (BMC) and bone width (BW) in the humerus and radius of well premature neonates and in the radius alone of well term neonates at birth, 8 and 16 weeks of age. These data allow (1) the correlation of bone mineralization in the humerus and radius at birth and over the first 4 months of life and (2) the correlation between bone mineralization in the radius or humerus at birth and that measured at 8 and 16 weeks in the same bone site. The BMC of the radius was significantly (P < 0.02) correlated with the BMC of the humerus at birth, 8 and 16 weeks, but the BW of the radius was significantly correlated with the BW of the humerus only at 16 weeks. On the other hand, the BMC of the radius at birth in both term and premature neonates failed to correlate significantly (P = ns) with the BMC of the radius at 8 or 16 weeks. In the humerus, the BMC at birth was significantly (P < 0.001) correlated with that measured at 8 but not at 16 weeks. These data indicate that the humerus and radius increase in mineral content at a similar rate over the first 4 months of life but that one cannot accurately predict from the BMC at birth what the bone mineral content will be at 8 and 16 weeks of age.     

Ontogeny and limb bone scaling in two new world marsupials,Monodelphis domestica and Didelphis virginiana

This study examines the growth of two species of marsupials who share common ancestry and are born at the same neonatal size of a little less than 1 g. Despite this similarity at birth, adult size of these two species differs by about 50 times, with the smaller species believed to be the more ancestral. We quantified the growth in the limb bones (humerus, femur, ulna, tibia, metacarpal, and metatarsal) beginning around 40 days of age until adult size was reached. Results indicate that the larger species grows at a higher rate of growth as well as for a longer period of time to reach its larger adult size. Despite these differences in growth, there were few differences observed in the scaling over time of length to width in the various limb bones that were measured. The two species, although different in their adult size and the patterns of growth, maintain the same length to width proportions in each limb bone. The biggest difference between species in scaling was observed in the bones of the hands and feet, which may suggest adaptation to size and/or locomotor performance as body size increases. Despite variation in size, these heterochronic patterns do not affect the shape among adults or over evolutionary time. J Morphol 231:117–130, 1997. © 1997 Wiley-Liss, Inc.     

Mechanisms of glucocorticoid-induced growth retardation: impairment of cartilage mineralization

Immature female mice were treated with daily doses of triamcinolone diacetate. Using histochemical and fluorescent methods, the mineralization pattern of the proximal epiphyseal plate of the humerus was studied at various intervals. Following 1 injection, a noticeable decrease was noted in the oxytetracycline incorporation at the mineralizing zone of the growth plate. By the 10th injection, the mineralization process was almost totally arrested. Marked accumulation of phospholipids appeared in experimental plates concomitantly with a lack of acidic glycosaminoglycans' synthesis as well as degradation. Chondroclastic activity was also inhibited resulting in an increased number of hypertrophic chondrocytes at the mineralization zone. It is suggested that the hormone's antianabolic effect led to an impairment in the activity of the chondrocytes' hydrolytic enzymes and thereby interfered with the maturation of the matrix, a prerequisite phase for normal mineralization.     

T-cell subsets in the murine thymus during chemically induced leukemogenesis

T cell leukemias were induced in BDF 1 mice by methylnitrosourea (MNU). The phenotype of the leukemic cells is Thy1.2 +, PNA-, TdT+, TL+ and heterogeneous with respect to Lyt-1 and Lyt-2. About 70% of the leukemias have elevated amounts of gp70. During latency period of at least 9 + 12 weeks an early reduction in the various thymic cells and the CFU-S is observed, with almost complete recovery. Later PNA+ cells are reduced. Hydrocortisone treatment delays or enhances leukemogenesis, dependent on the time interval between hydrocortisone and MNU. Some mice show elevated amounts of gp70 in their bone marrow 2--3 weeks after MNU. The problem of target cells in the bone marrow and the thymus is discussed.     

A protocol of intermittent exercise (shuttle runs) to train young basketball players

The purpose of this study was to set up a protocol of intermittent exercise to train young basketball players. Twenty-one players were asked to complete (a) an incremental test to determine maximal oxygen uptake (VO2max), the speed at the ventilatory threshold (vthr) and the energy cost of "linear" running (Cr) and (b) an intermittent test composed of 10 shuttle runs of 10-second duration and 30-seconds of recovery (total duration: about 6 minutes). The exercise intensity (the running speed, vi) was set at 130% of vthr. During the intermittent tests, oxygen uptake (VO2) and blood lactate concentration (Lab) were measured. The average pretraining VO2 calculated for a single bout (131 ± 9 ml · min(-1) kg(-1)) was about 2.4 times greater than the subjects' measured VO2max (54.7 ± 4.6 ml · min(-1) · kg(-1)). The net energy cost of running (9.2 ± 0.9 J · m(-1) · kg(-1)) was about 2.4 times higher than that measured at constant "linear" speed (3.9 ± 0.3 J · m(-1) · kg(-1)). The intermittent test was repeated after 7 weeks of training: 9 subjects (control group [CG]) maintained their traditional training schedule, whereas for 12 subjects (experimental group [EG]) part of the training was replaced by intermittent exercise (the same shuttle test as described above). After training, the VO2 measured during the intermittent test was significantly reduced (p < 0.05) in both groups (-10.9% in EG and - 4.6 in CG %), whereas Lab decreased significantly only for EG (-31.5%). These data suggest that this training protocol is effective in reducing lactate accumulation in young basketball players.     

Further mapping of quantitative trait loci for postnatal growth in an inter-sub-specific backcross of wild Mus musculus castaneus and C57BL/6J mice

We performed a quantitative trait locus (QTL) analysis of eight body weights recorded weekly from 3 weeks to 10 weeks after birth and two weight gains recorded between 3 weeks and 6 weeks, and between 6 weeks and 10 weeks in an inter-sub-specific backcross population of wild Mus musculus castaneus mice captured in the Philippines and the common inbred strain C57BL/6J ( M. musculus domesticus ), to elucidate the complex genetic architecture of body weight and growth. Interval mapping identified 17 significant QTLs with main effects on 11 chromosomes. In particular, the main effect of the most potent QTL on proximal chromosome 2 increased linearly with age, whereas other QTLs exerted effects on either the early or late growth period. Surprisingly, although wild mice displayed 60% of the body size of their C57BL/6J counterparts, the wild-derived allele enhanced growth at two QTLs. Interestingly, five of the 17 main-effect QTLs identified had significant epistatic interaction effects. Five new epistatic QTLs with no main effects were identified on different chromosomes or regions. For one pair of epistatic QTLs, mice that were heterozygous for the wild-derived allele at one QTL and homozygous for that allele at another QTL exhibited the most rapid growth in all four possible genotypic combinations. Out of the identified QTLs, several showed significant sex-specific effects.     

Inhibition of prostate cancer-meditated osteoblastic bone lesions by the low-calcemic analog 1alpha-hydroxymethyl-16-ene-26,27-bishomo-25-hydroxy vitamin D3

Prostate cancer metastasizes almost exclusively into the bone whereby it induces primarily an osteoblastic response. Non-calcemic vitamin D analogs have been shown to inhibit proliferation of prostate cancer cells in culture and inhibit their growth as subcutaneous xenografts in mice. However, their effect on prostate cancer cell growth in the bone has not been examined. In the present study, we inoculated the osteoblastic prostate cancer cell line MDA-PCa 2b into the bone of male SCID mice and examined the effect of the low-calcemic hybrid analog 1alpha-hydroxymethyl-16-ene-26,27-bishomo-25-hydroxy vitamin D(3) (JK-1626-2) on their ability to induce bone lesions. We found that 7 weeks after inoculation of MDA-PCa 2b cells, 90% of the mice in the vehicle-treated group had significant bone lesions that were detectable by micro-computed tomography and characterized by thickening of the cortical bone and ossification of the epiphysis. Only 30% of the mice in the analog-treated group (daily injections of 4microg/kg, 5 days/week for up to 7 weeks) had detectable bone lesions. Histological examination of the decalcified tumor-bearing bones has shown that tumor cells completely replaced the bone marrow in the diaphysis, and destroyed the trabecular bone in the metaphysis in 90% of the vehicle-treated mice. In contrast, the metaphysis of 60% of analog-treated mice appeared normal, although tumor cells were still found in the diaphysis of 70% of the bones in the analog-treated group. There was no evidence of hypercalcemia in any of the analog-treated mice. In a co-culture, MDA-PCa 2b cells induced a profound mitogenic response in osteoblasts followed by enhanced differentiation. However, in the presence of the analog the mitogenic response of the osteoblasts to the malignant cells was significantly attenuated. These experiments led to the hypothesis that, in vivo, JK-1626-2 prevented the metastatic bone lesions by inhibiting the mitogenic response of osteoblasts to growth factors produced by MDA-PCa 2b cells.     

Osteoclasts from mice deficient in tartrate-resistant acid phosphatase have altered ruffled borders and disturbed intracellular vesicular transport

Tartrate-resistant acid phosphatase (TRAP) is an enzyme highly expressed in osteoclasts (OC) and chondroclasts. As an approach to pinpoint the function of TRAP in bone-resorbing osteoclasts, the morphological phenotypic alterations of bone and osteoclasts in mice with targeted disruption of the TRAP gene were assessed by quantitative histomorphometry and immunocytochemistry at the light microscopic and ultrastructural levels. TRAP-deficient mice display alterations in the epiphyseal growth plates as evidenced by increased height with disorganized columns of chondrocytes, in particular affecting the zone of hypertrophic chondrocytes, consistent with a disturbance of chondrocyte maturation and chondroclastic resorption at the epiphyseal/metaphyseal junction. TRAP -/- mice express an early onset osteopetrotic bone phenotype, apparent already at 4 weeks of age. The differentiation of OCs was apparently normal; however, the osteoclasts in TRAP-deficient mice were less active in terms of degradation or release of the resorption marker C-terminal type I collagen cross-linked peptide, indicative of an intrinsic defect. Ultrastructural morphometry disclosed that OCs from TRAP-deficient young mice exhibited an increased relative area of ruffled borders. Moreover, mutant OC accumulated cytoplasmic vesicles 200-500 nm in size in both ruffled border and basolateral parts of the cytoplasm, reflecting disturbed intracellular transport. The accumulated vesicles were not likely derived from the secretory pathway, since cathepsin K was detected at normal levels in the ruffled border area and matrix in TRAP -/- mice. In summary, the resorptive defect in TRAP-deficient OCs is reflected by a disturbance at the level of ruffled borders and intracellular transport vesicles. Consequently, accumulation of vesicles in the cytoplasm of mutant OCs indicates a novel function for TRAP in modulating intracellular vesicular transport in osteoclasts.     

Dormancy release in Pinus sylvestris L. and Picea abies (L.) Karst. seedlings: effects of intermittent warm periods during chilling

Summary Experiments designed to test three simulation models were used to study the effects of intermittent warm periods during the chilling period on dormancy release in 2-year-old seedlings of Pinus sylvestris L. and Picea abies (L.) Karst. The effect of the intermittent period varied according to its timing. Compared with corresponding continuous chilling treatments, the intermittent periods (1) after 1–3 weeks of chilling increased the proportion of the seedlings for which dormancy was subsequently released, and (2) after 4–7 weeks of chilling substantially diminished this proportion. The intermittent periods did not affect the time required for growth initiation in forcing conditions. These results support a simulation model with a strict end-point for the rest period. On the basis of the experimental results, division of the dormant period into three sub-periods is proposed.     

Connective tissue alterations following neonatal thymectomy. VI. Calcium histochemical, growth-dynamical and thermoanalytical investigations on bone tissue of thymectomized rats.

Thymectomy was performed in newborn rats and the changes occurring in the epiphyseal cartilage and bone were investigated by Ca histochemical and thermoanalytical methods, one, two and six weeks following operation. Formation of Ca complexes was slowed down in the epiphyseal cartilage and the rate of growth decreased. At the same time the inorganic substance content decreased considerably in the bone tissue of operated rats as compared to the controls.     

Bone formation following intrarenal transplantation of isolated murine chondrocytes: chondrocyte-bone cell transdifferentiation?

Isolated syngeneic epiphyseal chondrocytes transplanted into a muscle formed cartilage in which matrix resorption and endochondral ossification began at the end of the second week after transplantation. After 56 days cartilage was converted into an ossicle. In 7-day-old intrarenal transplants, epiphyseal chondrocytes formed nodules of cartilage. In 10-day-old transplants, islands of bone appeared. Slight resorption of cartilage was first noted in 14-day-old transplants of chondrocytes. After eight weeks, transplants contained mainly bone. Intramuscularly transplanted rib chondrocytes formed cartilage which did not ossify. Nevertheless, bone islands appeared in intrarenal transplants of rib chondrocytes. Bone was not formed in allogeneic intrarenal transplants of epiphyseal or rib chondrocytes, but appeared in such transplants in animals immunosuppressed by anti-thymocyte serum and procarbazine. When spleen cells from animals immunized with allogeneic chondrocytes were transferred to immunosuppressed chondrocyte recipients two weeks after intrarenal chondrocyte transplantation, the majority of osteocytes in bone islands was dead. On the other hand, endochondral bone formed in intramuscular transplants of allogenic epiphyseal chondrocytes in immunosuppressed recipients was not damaged by sensitized spleen cells. This suggested that bone in 10- to 14-day-old intrarenal transplants of chondrocytes arose from injected cells and not by induction. To see whether bone was formed by chondrocytes or by some cells contaminating the chondrocyte suspension, the superficial layer of rib cartilage was removed by collagenase digestion and only more central chondrocytes were used for transplantation.(ABSTRACT TRUNCATED AT 250 WORDS)     

Influence of early qualitative feed restriction and environmental temperature on long bone development of broiler chickens

This investigation was carried out to study the influence of early qualitative feed restriction and environmental rearing temperature on long bone development in broiler. Energy and protein restriction reduced femur width and humerus weight, but did not affect tibia parameters. Broilers kept at cold environmental temperature showed reduced femur, tibia and humerus length and tibia weight, but the calculated density was not affected by rearing temperature. These findings suggest that qualitative feed restriction and environmental temperature influenced the normal long bone growth; however, bone weight/bone length index (calculated density) was not affected by rearing temperature.     

Morphometric analysis of cartilage canals in the developing mouse epiphysis

Cartilage canal development in the distal femoral epiphysis of 5- to 7-day-old mice can be divided into three stages as previously described [Cole and Wezeman, Am. J. Anat. 174: 119-129, 1985]. Using this model, a morphometric analysis of canal volume density at the three stages of development was performed and provided evidence that canal formation significantly exceeds epiphyseal growth. These data are consistent with initial canal formation by invasion rather than by inclusion.     

Melanocortin 1 Receptor-Signaling Deficiency Results in an Articular Cartilage Phenotype and Accelerates Pathogenesis of Surgically Induced Murine Osteoarthritis

Proopiomelanocortin-derived peptides exert pleiotropic effects via binding to melanocortin receptors (MCR). MCR-subtypes have been detected in cartilage and bone and mediate an increasing number of effects in diathrodial joints. This study aims to determine the role of MC1-receptors (MC1) in joint physiology and pathogenesis of osteoarthritis (OA) using MC1-signaling deficient mice (Mc1re/e). OA was surgically induced in Mc1re/e and wild-type (WT) mice by transection of the medial meniscotibial ligament. Histomorphometry of Safranin O stained articular cartilage was performed with non-operated controls (11 weeks and 6 months) and 4/8 weeks past surgery. µCT–analysis for assessing epiphyseal bone architecture was performed as a longitudinal study at 4/8 weeks after OA-induction. Collagen II, ICAM-1 and MC1 expression was analysed by immunohistochemistry. Mc1re/e mice display less Safranin O and collagen II stained articular cartilage area compared to WT prior to OA-induction without signs of spontaneous cartilage surface erosion. This MC1-signaling deficiency related cartilage phenotype persisted in 6 month animals. At 4/8 weeks after OA-induction cartilage erosions were increased in Mc1re/e knees paralleled by weaker collagen II staining. Prior to OA-induction, Mc1re/e mice do not differ from WT with respect to bone parameters. During OA, Mc1re/e mice developed more osteophytes and had higher epiphyseal bone density and mass. Trabecular thickness was increased while concomitantly trabecular separation was decreased in Mc1re/e mice. Numbers of ICAM-positive chondrocytes were equal in non-operated 11 weeks Mc1re/e and WT whereas number of positive chondrocytes decreased during OA-progression. Unchallenged Mc1re/e mice display smaller articular cartilage covered area without OA-related surface erosions indicating that MC1-signaling is critical for proper cartilage matrix integrity and formation. When challenged with OA, Mc1re/e mice develop a more severe OA-pathology. Our data suggest that MC1-signaling protects against cartilage degradation and subchondral bone sclerosis in OA indicating a beneficial role of the POMC system in joint pathophysiology.
