Introduction
Mechanical stimulation is important for maintaining cartilage function. We used a loading device to exert rolling-sliding mechanical stimulation on cartilage preserved in vitro to investigate cartilage viability and the involved mechanisms.Methods
Osteochondral grafts from pig knees were randomly classified into loading and control groups. The loading group cartilage was subjected to cycles of mechanical stimulation with specified frequency/time/pressure combinations every 3 days; Then the DMEM was refreshed, and the cartilage was preserved in vitro. The control group cartilage was preserved in DMEM throughout the process and was changed every 3 days. On days 14 and 28, the chondrocyte survival rate, histology, and Young’s modulus of the cartilage were measured. Western blots were performed after 2 h of loading to evaluate the protein expression.Results
The loading group showed a significantly higher chondrocyte survival rate, proteoglycan and type II collagen content, and Young’s modulus than did the control group on day 14, but no statistically significant differences were found on day 28. After two hours of the loading, the phosphorylation levels of MEK and ERK1/2 increased, and the expression of caspase-3, cleaved caspase-3 and bax decreased.Conclusion
These results suggest that periodic rolling-sliding mechanical stimulation can increase cartilage vitality in 2 weeks; a possible mechanism is that mechanical stimulation activates the MEK/ERK signalling pathway, thus inhibiting apoptotic protein expression. This loading preservation scheme could be used by cartilage tissue banks to improve cartilage preservation in vitro and enhance the quality of cartilage repair.中文翻译:
