Influence de la protéine périostine sur le développement des couches de fibrocartilage de l’insertion du ligament croisé antérieur - 30/09/23
Influence of periostin on the development of fibrocartilage layers of anterior cruciate ligament insertion
Abstract |
Background |
Periostin (Postn) is thought to play a role in the formation of anterior cruciate ligament (ACL) insertion. However, the influence of Postn on the development of ACL insertion requires further understanding. This study aimed to clarify the influence of Postn on the development of fibrocartilage layers of ACL insertion.
Hypothesis |
We hypothesized that Postn would influence the development of fibrocartilage layers of ACL insertion.
Materials and methods |
C57BL/6N wild-type (Postn+/+; n=54) and Postn knockout (Postn−/−; n=54) mice were used in this study. Six animals were euthanized at 1 d and 1, 2, 3, 4, 6, 8, 10, and 12 weeks of age in each group. The chondrocyte number, proliferation, apoptosis, safranin O-stained glycosaminoglycan (GAG) area, type II collagen staining area, tidemark length, and insertion width were evaluated.
Results |
Chondrocyte proliferation was high up to 2 weeks in Postn+/+, while low at age 1 d; it was, especially lower in Postn−/− than in Postn+/+ at age 1 d and 1 week. Chondrocyte apoptosis was high up to age 8 weeks in Postn+/+ and at 6 weeks in Postn−/−; it was especially higher in Postn−/− than in Postn+/+ at age 1 week. The GAG stained area was thickest for age 1 d to 4 weeks in Postn+/+ and for age 2 to 6 weeks in Postn−/−. The type II collagen staining area in Postn+/+ was thicker than that in Postn−/− at age 6 and 8 weeks. The tidemark length in Postn+/+ was longer than that in Postn−/− from age 8 to 12 weeks. The insertion width in Postn+/+ was longer than that in Postn−/− from age 1 to 3 weeks.
Discussion |
Postn decreased cell proliferation in the early postnatal phase and influenced the development of the fibrocartilage layer extracellular matrix of ACL insertion in mice. Postn may contribute to the development of methods for regeneration of the ACL insertion.
Level of evidence |
V; controlled laboratory study.
