Restoration of the extracellular matrix in human osteoarthritic articular cartilage by overexpression of the transcription factor SOX9

Abstract: Objective. Human osteoarthritis (OA) is characterized by a pathologic shift in articular cartilage homeostasis toward the progressive loss of extracellular matrix (ECM). The purpose of this study was to investigate the ability of rAAV-mediated SOX9 overexpression to restore major ECM components in human OA articular cartilage.Methods. We monitored the synthesis and content of proteoglycans and type II collagen in 3-dimensional cultures of human normal and OA articular chondrocytes and in explant cultures of hu… Show more

“…Even though application of these stimuli was capable of containing cartilage degradation, it was not sufficient to compensate for the loss of matrix elements and cells and to reestablish an original cartilage surface. Growth, transcription and enzymatic factors are potent candidates to achieve these goals because of their anabolic or mitogenic properties such as fibroblast growth factor 2 (FGF-2) (20,21), bone morphogenetic proteins 2 and 4 (BMP-2 and BMP-4) (22,23), transforming growth factor β (TGF-β) (22,24,25), transcription factor sex-determining region Y-type high mobility group box 9 (SOX9) (20,26,27), glucuronosyltransferase-I (28), bcl-2 (29) and telomerase (30). A critical agent that may have the strongest value to readjust the disturbed homeostasis in OA cartilage is insulinlike growth factor (IGF)-I, since it has the ability to influence concomitantly metabolic and proliferative processes, affording protection against extracellular matrix degradation in horse and rabbit articular cartilage explant cultures experimentally treated with proinflammatory cytokines (13,14,22).…”

“…In contrast with vectors derived from adenoviruses (6,10,13,14,(16)(17)(18)(19)21,22,25) and retroviruses (7,11,12,23,26,30) or with nonviral compounds (8,15,28,29), systems based on the replication-defective, nonpathogenic human adeno-associated virus (AAV) may provide better tools for OA, since recombinant AAV (rAAV) can deliver genes in nondividing cells such as chondrocytes both in vitro and in situ in their dense extracellular matrix at high efficiencies and for extended periods of time (20,24,27,31). Also, removal of the viral protein coding sequences in rAAV make them less immunogenic than adenoviral vectors characterized by shortterm transgene expression levels (32).…”
