Interleukin-1β and TNF-α Act in Synergy to Inhibit Longitudinal Growth in Fetal Rat Metatarsal Bones

Abstract: We show that IL-1beta and TNF-alpha act in synergy to locally suppress longitudinal growth, an effect that can be partially reversed by IGF-I. Although growth hormone (GH)/IGF-I may improve longitudinal growth in children with chronic inflammatory diseases, our results suggest that the inflammatory process itself must be targeted to achieve normal growth.

“…This effect has been reported to be independent of the concurrent reduction in growth associated with glucocorticoid therapy (Tynjala et al 2006). TNF-a and IL-1b may directly inhibit growth plate chondrocyte dynamics as well as longitudinal growth in vitro (Martensson et al 2004, MacRae et al 2006b), however, the underlying mechanisms that lead to these effects are unclear.…”

“…Then, we examined the expression of genes encoding cytokines that were reported to affect endochondral ossification. 17,[29][30][31] As shown in Figure 6c, among the cytokines examined, Il-1β and Mcp-5 displayed big differences between Ikkβ Prx1KO and control mice. Although IL-1β is reported to inhibit the differentiation of chondrocytes, 29,32 it was downregulated in the perichondrium of Ikkβ Prx1KO mice and thus fails to explain the phenotype.…”

“…More recently, a number of investigators have used ex vivo models such as rodent metatarsals in culture (Mårtensson et al 2004, Mushtaq et al 2004. For example, when fetal mouse metatarsals were cultured for up to 10 days with either daily or alternate-day dexamethasone at 10 −6 M, dexamethasone-treated bones paralleled control bone growth rate until day 8 when their rate of growth decreased resulting in a total length that was significantly reduced from controls at days 8 and 10 (Mushtaq et al 2004).…”
