Figure Legend Snippet: Low density porcine chondrocytes were stimulated with injury CM in the presence or absence of FGFRi (250nM SB402451) or anti-FGF2 neutralising antibody (4 μg/mL) and imaged using the IncuCyte imaging system. A , Representative images of cells after 96h culture. B , C , Quantitation of cell density assessed by IncuCyte imaging (at 2h intervals) over 96h. Movie showing change in cell morphology and proliferation for each condition are presented in supplementary video data file S5. D , Yap-Tead GFP reporter assay after stimulation of cells with IL-6/IL-6R (positive control), injury CM at indicated dilutions, with or without FGFRi (250 nM). Graph shows mean ± SD. Data points indicate independent experiments. One-way ANOVA with Tukey’s post-test, n = 6. Quantification E , and representative images F , of in vivo murine cartilage repair model, induced at 10 weeks of age and assessed after 8 weeks, in FGF2 -/- and DBA1 control mice. Histological sections were scored using a modified Pineda score. Mean ± SEM; Mann-Whitney U test; *p>0.05, **p>0.01, n = 12 biological replicates.
Techniques Used: Imaging, Quantitation Assay, Reporter Assay, Positive Control, In Vivo, Control, Modification, MANN-WHITNEY
Figure Legend Snippet: A , Illustration of SJD. B, Volcano plot showing mean difference (log) in protein expression against adjusted p-values, pre and post SJD in paired samples (n = 16, 5471 proteins, padj ≤ 0.05). Top regulated proteins labelled. C, Line plots for a selection of regulated proteins. INHBA, inhibin βA; ACTIVIN A, inhibin βA homodimer; ACTIVIN AC, Inhibin βA:Inhibin βC heterodimer; BMP, bone morphogenetic proteins-5 & 6. SOX-9, SRY box transcription factor-9; COL2A1, collagen type II a1 chain; COL10A1, collagen type 10 a1 chain; HPLN1, link protein; HSPG2, perlecan. D , Top 10 pathways after gene enrichment analysis (Reactome). E , Cell confluency by IncuCyte imaging of primary chondrocytes stimulated with injury CM in the presence of anti-activin A. F , Chondrogenesis assay of MACs (generated by 72h treatment with injury CM) in the presence of recombinant FGF2 or activin A. Expression of chondrogenic marker genes measured by qPCR at day 3. G , Schematic of the intrinsic repair cycle of articular cartilage. A and G created using BioRender.
