[PMID: 38369276 DOI: 10.1016/j.joca.2024.02.006] [Citation(s) in RCA: 0] [Impact Index Per Article: 0] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Key Words] [MESH Headings] [Track Full Text] [Journal Information] [Submit a Manuscript] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 08/10/2023] [Revised: 02/01/2024] [Accepted: 02/07/2024] [Indexed: 02/20/2024]
Abstract
OBJECTIVE Neutralization of Interleukin (IL)-6-signaling by antibodies is considered a promising tool for the treatment of osteoarthritis (OA). To gain further insight into this potential treatment, this study investigated the effects of IL-6-signaling and IL-6 neutralization on chondrocyte metabolism and the release of IL-6-signaling-related mediators by human chondrocytes. DESIGN Chondrocytes were collected from 49 patients with advanced knee/hip OA or femoral neck fracture. Isolated chondrocytes were stimulated with different mediators to analyze the release of IL-6, soluble IL-6 receptor (sIL-6R) and soluble gp130 (sgp130). The effect of IL-6 and IL-6/sIL-6R complex as well as neutralization of IL-6-signaling on the metabolism was analyzed. RESULTS OA chondrocytes showed high basal IL-6 production and release, which was strongly negatively correlated with the production of cartilage-matrix-proteins. Chondrocytes produced and released sIL-6R and sgp130. The IL-6/sIL-6R complex significantly increased nitric oxide, prostaglandin E2 and matrix metalloproteinase 1 production, decreased Pro-Collagen Type II and mitochondrial ATP production, and increased glycolysis in OA chondrocytes. Neutralization of IL-6-signaling by antibodies did not significantly affect the metabolism of OA chondrocytes, but blocking of glycoprotein 130 (gp130)-signaling by SC144 significantly reduced the basal IL-6 release. CONCLUSION Although IL-6 trans-signaling induced by IL-6/sIL-6R complex negatively affects OA chondrocytes, antibodies against IL-6 or IL-6R did not affect chondrocyte metabolism. Since inhibition of gp130-signaling reduced the enhanced basal release of IL-6, interfering with gp130-signaling may ameliorate OA progression because high cellular release of IL-6 correlates with reduced production of cartilage-matrix-proteins.

LIF signaling regulates outer radial glial to interneuron fate during human cortical development. Cell Stem Cell 2023; 30:1382-1391.e5. [PMID: 37673072 PMCID: PMC10591955 DOI: 10.1016/j.stem.2023.08.009] [Citation(s) in RCA: 0] [Impact Index Per Article: 0] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Key Words] [MESH Headings] [Grants] [Track Full Text] [Journal Information] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 03/10/2023] [Revised: 07/16/2023] [Accepted: 08/14/2023] [Indexed: 09/08/2023]
Abstract
Radial glial (RG) development is essential for cerebral cortex growth and organization. In humans, the outer radial glia (oRG) subtype is expanded and gives rise to diverse neurons and glia. However, the mechanisms regulating oRG differentiation are unclear. oRG cells express leukemia-inhibitory factor (LIF) receptors during neurogenesis, and consistent with a role in stem cell self-renewal, LIF perturbation impacts oRG proliferation in cortical tissue and organoids. Surprisingly, LIF treatment also increases the production of inhibitory interneurons (INs) in cortical cultures. Comparative transcriptomic analysis identifies that the enhanced IN population resembles INs produced in the caudal ganglionic eminence. To evaluate whether INs could arise from oRGs, we isolated primary oRG cells and cultured them with LIF. We observed the production of INs from oRG cells and an increase in IN abundance following LIF treatment. Our observations suggest that LIF signaling regulates the capacity of oRG cells to generate INs.
