Abstract
Human organic anion-transporting polypeptide 1B1 (OATP1B1) and OATP1B3 are important hepatic uptake transporters. Early assessment of OATP1B1/1B3-mediated drug-drug interactions (DDIs) is therefore important for successful drug development. A promising approach for early screening and prediction of DDIs is computational modeling. In this study we aimed to generate a rapid, single Bayesian prediction model for OATP1B1, OATP1B1∗15 and OATP1B3 inhibition. Besides our previously generated HEK-OATP1B1 and HEK-OATP1B1∗15 cells, we now generated and characterized HEK-OATP1B3 cells. Using these cell lines we investigated the inhibitory potential of 640 FDA-approved drugs from a commercial library (10μM) on the uptake of [(3)H]-estradiol-17β-d-glucuronide (1μM) by OATP1B1, OATP1B1∗15, and OATP1B3. Using a cut-off of ⩾60% inhibition, 8% and 7% of the 640 drugs were potent OATP1B1 and OATP1B1∗15 inhibitors, respectively. Only 1% of the tested drugs significantly inhibited OATP1B3, which was not sufficient for Bayesian modeling. Modeling of OATP1B1 and OATP1B1∗15 inhibition revealed that presence of conjugated systems and (hetero)cycles with acceptor/donor atoms in- or outside the ring enhance the probability of a molecule binding these transporters. The overall performance of the model for OATP1B1 and OATP1B1∗15 was ⩾80%, including evaluation with a true external test set. Our Bayesian classification model thus represents a fast, inexpensive and robust means of assessing potential binding of new chemical entities to OATP1B1 and OATP1B1∗15. As such, this model may be used to rank compounds early in the drug development process, helping to avoid adverse effects in a later stage due to inhibition of OATP1B1 and/or OATP1B1∗15.

Abstract
OBJECTIVES Age is the most prominent predisposition for development of osteoarthritis (OA). Age-related changes of articular cartilage are likely to play a role. Advanced glycation endproducts (AGEs) accumulate in cartilage matrix with increasing age and adversely affect the biomechanical properties of the cartilage matrix and influence chondrocyte activity. In clinical studies AGEing of cartilage and its relation to actual cartilage damage can only be measured by surrogate markers (e.g., serum, skin or urine AGE levels and imaging or biochemical markers of cartilage damage). In this study actual cartilage AGE levels were directly related to actual cartilage damage by use of cartilage obtained at joint replacement surgery. METHODS Cartilage and urine samples were obtained from 69 patients undergoing total knee replacement. Samples were analyzed for pentosidine as marker of AGE. Cartilage damage was evaluated macroscopically, histologically, and biochemically. RESULTS Cartilage and urine pentosidine both increased with increasing age. The higher the macroscopic, histological, and biochemical cartilage damage the lower the cartilage pentosidine levels were. In multiple regression analysis age is not found to be a confounder. CONCLUSION There is an inverse relation between cartilage AGEs and actual cartilage damage in end-stage OA. This is likely due to ongoing (ineffective) increased turnover of cartilage matrix proteins even in end stage disease.

Abstract
OBJECTIVES Age-related changes in articular cartilage are likely to play a role in the aetiology of osteoarthritis (OA). One of the major age-related changes in cartilage is the accumulation of advanced-glycation-endproducts (AGEs). Since, cartilage tissue is not readily available from patients for studying AGE levels, alternative approaches such as analyzing skin and urine are needed to study the role of cartilage AGE levels in OA. METHODS Paired human skin and cartilage samples were obtained post mortem. Paired skin and urine samples were obtained from the CHECK cohort (early OA patients). Pentosidine levels were measured by high-performance liquid chromatography (HPLC). As marker of cumulative cartilage damage X-rays of both knees and hips were scored. Urinary CTXII (uCTXII) levels were measured, to assess current cartilage breakdown. RESULTS Cartilage and skin pentosidine correlate well (R=0.473, P=0.05). Skin pentosidine was higher in mild (summed (Kellgren & Lawrence K&L) over four large joints ≥4) compared to no (summed K&L≤3) radiographic OA (P=0.007). Urinary pentosidine was not different between these two groups. Skin pentosidine levels were not related to cartilage breakdown (highest vs lowest tertile of uCTXII). Urinary pentosidine, however, was higher in the highest compared to the lowest uCTXII tertile (P=0.009). Multiple regression analysis showed age to be the only predictor of the summed K&L score and age, creatinine clearance and urinary pentosidine as predictors of uCTXII. CONCLUSION The higher skin and urinary pentosidine levels in those with mild compared to no radiographic joint damage and low vs high cartilage breakdown respectively suggest that AGEs may contribute to disease susceptibility and/or progression. However, relations are weak and cannot be used as surrogate markers of severity of OA.

Abstract
Cartilage oligomeric matrix protein (COMP) is a protein present in the cartilage matrix and is expressed more abundantly in osteoarthritis cartilage than in healthy cartilage. The present study was designed to investigate the effect of transforming growth factor β (TGFβ) on COMP deposition and the influence of COMP on collagen biochemistry in a long-term 3-dimensional culture. Bovine chondrocytes in alginate beads were cultured with or without 25 ng/mL TGFβ2 for 21 or 35 days. COMP was overexpressed in bovine chondrocytes using lentiviral transfection. COMP gene expression, COMP protein production, collagen and proteoglycan deposition, and collagen fibril thickness were determined. Addition of TGFβ2 resulted in more COMP mRNA and protein than the control condition without growth factors. Lentiviral transduction with COMP resulted in elevated gene expression of COMP and increased COMP levels in the alginate bead and culture medium compared to untransfected cells. Overexpression of COMP did not affect the deposition of collagen, collagen cross-linking, proteoglycan deposition, or the mechanical properties. Stimulating COMP production by either TGFβ2 or lentivirus resulted in collagen fibrils with a smaller diameter. Taken together, COMP deposition can be modulated in cartilage matrix production by the addition of growth factors or by overexpression of COMP. Inducing COMP protein expression resulted in collagen fibrils with a smaller diameter. Because it has been demonstrated that the collagen fibril diameter is associated with mechanical functioning of the matrix, modulating COMP levels should be taken into account in cartilage regeneration strategies.

Abstract
CONTEXT Molecules that are released into biological fluids during matrix metabolism of articular cartilage, subchondral bone, and synovial tissue could serve as biochemical markers of the process of osteoarthritis (OA). Unfortunately, actual breakthroughs in the biochemical OA marker field are limited so far. OBJECTIVE By reviewing the status of commercially available biochemical OA markers according to the "Burden of disease, Investigative, Prognostic, Efficacy of intervention, and Diagnostic" ("BIPED") classification, future use of this "BIPED" classification is encouraged and more efficient biochemical OA marker research stimulated. DATA SOURCES Three electronic databases [PubMed, Scopus, EMBASE (1997-May 2009)] were searched for publications on blood and urinary biochemical markers in human primary knee and hip-OA. STUDY SELECTION Stepwise selection of original English publications describing human studies on blood or urinary biochemical markers in primary knee or hip-OA was performed. Selected articles were fully read to determine whether biochemical markers were investigated on performance within any of the "BIPED" categories. Eighty-four relevant publications were identified. DATA EXTRACTION Data from relevant publications were tabulated according to the "BIPED" classification. Individual analyses within a publication were summarized in general "BIPED" scores. DATA SYNTHESIS An uneven distribution of scores on biochemical marker performance and heterogeneity among the publications complicated direct comparison of individual biochemical markers. Comparison of categories of biochemical markers was therefore performed instead. In general, biochemical markers of cartilage degradation were investigated most extensively and performed well in comparison with other categories of biochemical markers. Biochemical markers of bone metabolism performed less adequately. Biochemical markers of synovial tissue metabolism were not investigated extensively, but performed quite well. CONCLUSIONS Specific biochemical markers and categories of biochemical markers as well as their nature, origin and metabolism, need further investigation. International standardization of future investigations should be pursued to obtain more high-quality, homogenous data on the full spectrum of biochemical OA markers.

Abstract
OBJECTIVE Defects in the assembly and composition of cartilage extracellular matrix are likely to result in impaired matrix integrity and increased susceptibility to cartilage degeneration. The aim of this study was to determine the functional interaction of the collagen fibril-associated proteins type IX collagen and cartilage oligomeric matrix protein (COMP) during cartilage matrix formation. METHODS Primary chondrocytes from mice deficient in type IX collagen and COMP (double-deficient) were cultured in monolayer or alginate beads. Anchorage of matrix proteins, proteoglycan and collagen content, collagen crosslinks, matrix metalloproteinase activity, and mechanical properties of the matrix were measured. Electron microscopy was used to study the formation of fibrillar structures. RESULTS In cartilage lacking both type IX collagen and COMP, matrilin 3 showed decreased matrix anchorage. Less matrilin 3 was deposited in the matrix of double-deficient chondrocytes, while larger amounts were secreted into the medium. Proteoglycans were less well retained in the matrix formed in alginate cultures, while collagen deposition was not significantly affected. Electron microscopy revealed similar cartilage collagen fibril diameters in the cultures of double-deficient and wild-type chondrocytes. In contrast, a larger fibril diameter was observed in the matrix of chondrocytes deficient in only type IX collagen. CONCLUSION Our results show that type IX collagen and COMP are involved in matrix assembly by mediating the anchorage and regulating the distribution of other matrix macromolecules such as proteoglycans and matrilins and have counteracting effects on collagen fibril growth. Loss of type IX collagen and COMP leads to matrix aberrations that may make cartilage more susceptible to degeneration.

Abstract
REASONS FOR PERFORMING STUDY Matrix metalloproteinases (MMPs) and tumour necrosis factor alpha (TNF-alpha) may be useful as biomarkers of joint disease or inflammation. However, activity of both MMPs and TNF-alpha in synovial fluid (SF) may be influenced by nonpathological factors such as arthrocentesis or exercise. OBJECTIVE To investigate the influence of repeated arthrocentesis and exercise on MMP and TNF-alpha activities in SF from normal equine joints. METHODS SF was collected from the left metacarpophalangeal, radiocarpal and tarsocrural joints of 16 horses. Eight of these horses were subsequently subjected to an exercise programme on a treadmill and 8 were box-rested as controls. Arthrocentesis was repeated 14, 145, 17 and 24 days after the start of the exercise programme. General MMP and TNF-alpha activities were determined in SF. RESULTS Repeated arthrocentesis caused a gradual increase but the exercise regimen no significant increase in MMP activity. There was a significant increase in TNF-alpha activity in SF collected from horses 2 h after cessation of the exercise programme. CONCLUSIONS AND POTENTIAL RELEVANCE When using MMPs as biomarkers for joint disease, at least 14 days should elapse after previous arthrocentesis before subsequent SF collection. Moderate exercise does not increase MMP activity in SF from normal joints and it may be possible to ignore this as a source of error in evaluating MMP activity in diseased joints.

Abstract
REASONS FOR PERFORMING STUDY Osteoarthritis (OA) is one of the most prevalent and disabling chronic conditions affecting horses and leads to degeneration of articular cartilage. Diagnosis is based on clinical signs in combination with radiography, which is relatively insensitive and provides only an indication of accumulated damage. Alternative methods, such as molecular markers, are therefore needed that can quantitatively, reliably and sensitively detect osteoarthritic changes in the joints at an early stage of the disease. If such markers are to be used reliably, it is important to know the relationship between marker concentration and cartilage composition. OBJECTIVES To study the relationship between cartilage composition, synovial fluid levels of glycosaminoglycans (GAGs), hydroxyproline (Hyp) and general matrix metalloproteinase (MMP) activity, and the presence and severity of articular cartilage damage on the articular surface of P1. METHODS Synovial fluid (SF) was collected from the metacarpophalangeal joints of 60 mature horses, and levels of GAGs, Hyp and general MMP activity were determined. Further, GAG and denatured collagen content of the articular cartilage were determined at the dorsal articular margin of P1 (site 1) and central cavity (site 2). The presence and severity of cartilage change was quantified using the cartilage degeneration index (CDI), measured at the same 2 sites. Correlations between SF parameters, cartilage composition and degree of cartilage degeneration were sought using correlation analysis. RESULTS There was no correlation between GAG or Hyp content of SF and the amount of GAGs or denatured collagen, respectively, in cartilage. In joints with moderate to severe cartilage damage, the GAG content of site 1 was significantly lower than in joints with no to minimal cartilage change (P = 0.005) and there was a negative correlation between the amount of denatured collagen and GAG content at site 1 in all joints (r = -039, P = 0.002). Further, in joints with moderate to severe cartilage damage, there was a significant positive correlation between MMP activity in SF and Hyp levels in SF (r = 0.72, P < 0.001) and CDI at sites 1 (r = 0.46, P = 0.03) and 2 (r = 0.43, P = 0.04). CONCLUSIONS General MMP activity in joints with moderate to severe cartilage damage is related to the severity of those cartilage changes and to Hyp levels in SF. Glycosaminoglycan levels in SF are not directly related to MMP activity, GAG content of articular cartilage or severity of cartilage change. POTENTIAL RELEVANCE Glycosaminoglycan levels in SF are not helpful for the early detection of cartilage lesions. In damaged joints, Hyp levels may give an indication of the severity of cartilage change as they are strongly related to MMP activity, but do not qualify as markers for the presence or absence of cartilage lesions.

Abstract
The optimal stimulus to repair or regenerate cartilage is not known. We therefore modulated collagen deposition, collagen crosslinking and GAG deposition simultaneously during cartilage matrix production and integrative repair, creating more insight into their role in cartilage repair processes. Insulin-like growth factor 1 (IGF-1; increases proteoglycan and collagen synthesis), beta-aminopropionitrile (BAPN; a reversible inhibitor of collagen crosslinking) and para-nitrophenyl-beta-D-xyloside (PNPX; interferes with proteoglycan production) were used. Bovine articular chondrocytes were cultured in alginate beads for 3 weeks with or without IGF-1, BAPN or PNPX alone and in all possible combinations, followed by 3 weeks in control medium. DNA content, GAG and collagen deposition and collagen crosslinks were determined. Cartilage constructs were cultured under the same conditions and histologically analysed for integration of two opposing cartilage matrices. In alginate cultures, inhibition of collagen crosslinking with BAPN, in combination with promotion of matrix synthesis using IGF1, was most beneficial for matrix deposition. Addition of PNPX was always detrimental for matrix deposition. For integration of opposing cartilage constructs, the combination of BAPN, IGF1 and temporary prevention of proteoglycan formation with PNPX was most beneficial. When a new matrix is produced, proteoglycans are important to retain collagen in the matrix. When two already formed cartilage matrices have to integrate, a temporary absence of proteoglycans and temporary inhibition of collagen crosslinking might be more beneficial in combination with stimulation of collagen production, e.g. by IGF1. Therefore, the choice of soluble factors to promote cartilage regeneration depends on the type of therapy that will be used.

Abstract
OBJECTIVE The most used model for joint instability is the canine anterior cruciate ligament transection (ACLT)-model. The ACLT-model can be extended with a medial meniscectomy (MX) (i.e., ACLT-MX-model) to avoid unintentional, and with that variable, meniscal damage. The present study compares the ACLT-MX-model with the more recently introduced Groove-model on longitudinal measurements of osteophyte formation and gait as a surrogate marker of pain and disability, in addition to structural endpoint parameters. METHODS Degenerative joint damage was induced Labrador dogs according to the ACLT-MX-model (n=7) or Groove-model (n=7). Every 4 weeks radiographs were taken to analyze osteophyte formation. Every 2 weeks gait was recorded using force-plate analysis. Joints were analyzed for features of degeneration 12 weeks after surgery. RESULTS Both models showed similar osteophyte formation and gait changes for both experimental and contra-lateral control joints, although more pronounced for the ACLT-MX-model. This was supported by the structural endpoint measurements. Cartilage integrity, chondrocyte activity and synovial inflammation revealed similar characteristics of degenerative joint disease in both groups, again more pronounced in the ACLT-MX-model. CONCLUSIONS The ACLT-MX-model demonstrates characteristics of joint degeneration that are related to moderate to severe osteoarthritis with clear synovial inflammatory activity. The Groove-model is a less painful and a significantly milder model of joint degeneration. The latter model might be more suitable to study subtle changes as a result of intervention than the more robust ACLT-MX-model.

Abstract
OBJECTIVE To analyse the effects of leflunomide and methotrexate treatment on matrix metalloproteinase (MMP) activity levels in alpha2 macroglobulin/MMP (alpha2M/MMP) complexes in the systemic circulation of rheumatoid arthritis (RA) patients. METHODS A total of 102 RA patients from a prospective, double-blind, randomised clinical trial comparing leflunomide and methotrexate were selected; clinical data and blood samples were collected at baseline, at 4 months and at 1 year. Serum MMP activity levels in alpha2M were quantified using low molecular weight fluorogenic substrates, indicating the proportion of activated MMPs that were not inhibited by specific tissue inhibitors of MMP (TIMP). RESULTS Patients had active disease as shown by high disease activity score (DAS, mean of 6.9 and 7.0 for methotrexate and leflunomide patients respectively), which was reduced over the study period (4.2 and 5.2 respectively, p<0.001). In leflunomide-treated patients a significant reduction of MMP activity levels was observed as early as at the 4 months timepoint persisting thereafter, whereas in methotrexate-treated patients the reduction was seen at 1 year. CONCLUSION The results show that systemic levels of activated MMPs are reduced in RA patients upon exposure to leflunomide or methotrexate.

Abstract
OBJECTIVE To assess the relationship of biochemical markers and radiographic signs of osteoarthritis (ROA) in the subjects with symptomatic osteoarthritis (OA) at multiple sites of the Genetics osteoARthritis and Progression (GARP) study. METHODS We have measured eight biochemical markers, representing tissue turnover of cartilage, bone, synovium, and inflammation. ROA was assessed in the knees, hips, hands, vertebral facet joints and spinal disc degeneration (DD) by using the Kellgren score. A proportionate score was subsequently made for each joint location based on the number of joints with ROA. Principal component and linear mixed model analyses were applied to analyze the data. RESULTS Three different clusters of markers were identified that may reflect different pathophysiological processes of OA. The first component appeared to be reflected by structural markers of cartilage and bone turnover and associated especially in subjects with hip ROA. The second component was reflected by a marker of inflammation and was associated with knee ROA, high Western Ontario and McMaster Universities (WOMAC) scores and body mass index (BMI). The third component included markers of cartilage turnover and was associated with ROA at hands, spine as well as age. High familial aggregation was observed for serum cartilage oligomeric matrix protein (S-COMP) (70%) and serum N-propeptide of collagen type IIA (S-PIIANP) (62%). CONCLUSION Using a large well-characterized study and eight biochemical markers, we were able to observe three components that may reflect different molecular mechanisms (bone, cartilage, synovium turnover and inflammation). Our data suggested that these components contribute differently to ROA at different joint sites.

Abstract
OBJECTIVE In vitro models for joint diseases often focus on a single cell type, such as chondrocytes in osteoarthritis (OA) or fibroblast-like synoviocytes (synoviocytes) in rheumatoid arthritis (RA). However, these joint diseases affect the whole joint and interaction between chondrocytes and synoviocytes may play an important role in disease pathology. The current study was designed to study the use of the alginate recovered chondrocyte method as a model for cartilage degradation and to study interaction between chondrocytes and synoviocytes. METHODS Bovine chondrocytes were cultured in alginate beads for 1 week, subsequently chondrons were retrieved and seeded into transwells. Every two days cartilage-slices were analysed for proteoglycan content (colorimetric, Blyscan GAG kit), collagen content (HPLC) and collagen HP and LP crosslinking (HPLC). For degradation experiments, monocultures of cartilage-slices labelled with (35)S and cocultures with synoviocytes were stimulated with IL-1beta or TNF-alpha. After 7 days, (35)S release was measured taken as a measure of cartilage degradation. RESULTS After biochemical analysis, three week old cartilage-like slices were chosen to perform cartilage-degradation experiments. Synoviocytes were able to induce cartilage degradation only in the presence of living chondrocytes. In addition, the cytokines interleukin 1 (IL-1beta) and tumor necrosis factor (TNF-alpha) were only able to induce cartilage degradation by chondrocytes, not by synoviocytes. CONCLUSION These data indicate that the alginate recovered chondrocyte method provides a novel model for cartilage degradation in which the interaction between synoviocytes and chondrocytes can be studied.

Abstract
OBJECTIVE Examine effects of insulin-like growth factor 1 (IGF1), transforming growth factor beta2 (TGFbeta2) and fibroblast growth factor 2 (FGF2) on proteoglycan and collagen network and biomechanical properties of the newly formed cartilage matrix. METHODS Bovine articular chondrocytes were cultured in alginate beads for 3 weeks with or without FGF2, TGFbeta2 or IGF1 in the presence of 10% FCS. Proteoglycan content, collagen content, hydroxylysylpyridinoline cross-links and overall matrix metalloproteinase (MMP) activity in the culture medium were measured. Alginate disks cultured for 5 weeks were used to evaluate the effect of growth factors on mechanical properties of the construct by determining the equilibrium aggregate modulus and secant modulus. RESULTS IGF1 increased collagen and proteoglycan deposition. FGF2 mainly decreased collagen deposition and TGFbeta2 proteoglycan deposition. A decrease in cross-links was observed in matrix produced by chondrocytes cultured in the presence of TGFbeta2. IGF1 and FGF2 had no influence on the number of cross-links per collagen molecule. Overall MMP activity was significantly higher in culture medium of cells cultured with FGF2. TGFbeta2 and IGF1 had no effect on MMP activity. After 35 days of culture, the matrix produced under influence of IGF1 had a lower permeability and a trend to increase stiffness. FGF2 showed a trend to lower both properties. TGFbeta2 had no effect on these parameters. CONCLUSION IGF1, TGFbeta2 and FGF2 had differential effects on collagen network formation. Of the three growth factors tested, IGF1 seems to be best in promoting the formation of a functional collagen network since it increased proteoglycan and collagen deposition and improved the mechanical properties.

Abstract
BACKGROUND AND OBJECTIVE The purpose of this study was to investigate the effects of chemically modified tetracyclines (CMTs) on the production of gelatinases [matrix metalloproteinase (MMP)-2 and -9] by human periodontal ligament (PDL) cells, and on the activity of recombinant gelatinases. MATERIAL AND METHODS Human PDL cells were cultured with CMT-1, -3, -5, -7 or -8 in concentrations of 0, 1, 5, 10, 20, 50, 100, 200 and 500 microm. Gelatin zymography was used to determine MMP-2 and -9 production of the cells. The amount of DNA present in the cultures was analyzed using a fluorescent assay. The cytotoxicity of the CMTs was also determined. Recombinant human MMP-2 and -9 were incubated with the CMTs (0-500 microm) and their activity was analyzed using an internally quenched fluorogenic substrate. RESULTS MMP-2 production was stimulated up to sevenfold by CMT-1, -3, -7 and -8 at low concentrations (10-200 microm). No significant amounts of MMP-9 were produced. In contrast, MMP-2 and -9 activity was reduced by approximately 10-40-fold at higher concentrations (200-500 microm). CMT-5 had no effect on the production or on the activity of MMP-2 and -9. Only CMT-3 and -8 had cytotoxic effects on the PDL cells at the highest concentrations. CONCLUSION Surprisingly, CMTs are able to stimulate MMP-2 production at relatively low concentrations. However, at higher concentrations they exert a much stronger inhibitory effect on gelatinase activity. A possible stimulatory effect of CMTs on MMP production should be considered in their clinical use.

Abstract
OBJECTIVE Osteoarthritis (OA) is one of the most common diseases among the elderly. The main characteristic is the progressive destruction of articular cartilage. We lack quantitative and sensitive biomarkers for OA to detect changes in the joints in an early stage of the disease. In this study, we investigated whether a urinary metabolite profile could be found that could serve as a diagnostic biomarker for OA in humans. We also compared the profile we obtained previously in the guinea pig spontaneous OA model. METHODS Urine samples of 92 participants (47 non-OA controls and 45 individuals with radiographic OA of the knees or hips) were selected from the Johnston County Osteoarthritis Project (North Carolina, USA). Participants ranged in age from 60 to 84 years. Samples were measured by 1H nuclear magnetic resonance spectroscopy (NMR) with subsequent principal component discriminant analysis and partial least squares regression analysis. RESULTS Differences were observed between urine NMR spectra of OA cases and controls (P<0.001 for both male and female subjects). A metabolite profile could be determined which was strongly associated with OA. This profile largely resembled the profile previously identified for guinea pigs with OA (approximately 40 out of the approximately 125 signals of the human profile were present in the guinea pig profile as well). A correlation was found between the metabolite profile and radiographic OA severity (R2 = 0.82 (male); R2 = 0.93 (female)). CONCLUSION This study showed that a urine metabolite profile may serve as a novel discriminating biomarker of OA.

Abstract
The objectives of the present study were to test the hypotheses that: (1) the composition of the extracellular matrix of the equine superficial digital flexor tendon (SDFT) shows great functional similarities with articular cartilage, i.e. that significant differences exist in biochemical composition of differently loaded areas (which in the case of tendons may be more apparent as tendon shows more obvious differences than cartilage); and (2) that, as in articular cartilage, no substantial alterations in biochemical composition take place during ageing once adulthood has been attained. Tendon samples were taken from 60 adult slaughter horses from a central area at cross-section in the mid-metacarpal region and at the height of the proximal sesamoid bones (sesamoid region) of the SDFT. Contents of collagenous and non-collagenous components were determined. None of the parameters were correlated with age in either region, except for a significant increase in pentosidine cross-links with age in the sesamoid region. Between the two anatomical regions, there were significant differences in all variables, except for hydroxylysylpyridinoline cross-links. It was concluded that in the equine SDFT, similar to articular cartilage, most molecular parameters are not influenced by age in mature horses, indicating a low remodelling rate. Tendon composition is clearly different between regions, apparently reflecting different specific modes of biomechanical loading at the points sampled.

Abstract
OBJECTIVE To determine protein and activity levels of matrix metalloproteinases 1 and 3 (MMP-1 and MMP-3) in synovial fluid of patients with knee joint injury, primary osteoarthritis, and acute pyrophosphate arthritis (pseudogout). METHODS Measurements were done on knee synovial fluid obtained in a cross sectional study of cases of injury (n = 283), osteoarthritis (n = 105), and pseudogout (n = 65), and in healthy controls (n = 35). Activity of MMP-1 and MMP-3 in alpha(2) macroglobulin complexes was measured using specific low molecular weight fluorogenic substrates. ProMMP-1, proMMP-3, and TIMP-1 (tissue inhibitor of metalloproteinase 1) were quantified by immunoassay. RESULTS Mean levels of proMMP-1, proMMP-3, and TIMP-1 were increased in injury, osteoarthritis, and pseudogout compared with controls. MMP-1 activity was increased in pseudogout and injury groups over control levels, whereas MMP-3 activity was increased only in the pseudogout group. The increase in MMP-1 activity coincided with a decrease in TIMP-1 levels in the injury group. CONCLUSIONS Patients with joint injury have a persistent increase in proMMP-1 and proMMP-3 in synovial fluid and an increase in activated MMPs, which are not inhibited by TIMP. The differences in activation and inhibition patterns between the study groups are consistent with disease specific patterns of MMP activation and/or inhibition in joint pathology.

Abstract
Osteochondrosis (OC) is the most important developmental orthopaedic disease in the horse. Despite some decades of research, much of the pathogenesis of the disorder remains obscure. Increasing knowledge of articular cartilage development in juvenile animals led to the presumption that the role of collagen in OC might be more important than previously thought. To study collagen characteristics of both cartilage and subchondral bone in young (5 and 11 months of age) horses, samples were taken of subchondral bone and articular cartilage from a group of 43 Dutch Warmblood foals and yearlings that suffered from varying degrees of OC. Based on a histological classification, lesions were graded as early, middle and end stage. Collagen content and some posttranslational modifications (lysyl hydroxylation, hydroxylysylpyridinoline (HP) and lysylpyridinoline (LP) cross-links) were determined, as was proteoglycan content. Data were compensated for site effects and analysed for differences due to the stage of the lesion. In early lesions total collagen was significantly decreased in both cartilage and subchondral bone of 5- and 11-month-old foals. Also in cartilage, HP cross-linking was reduced in the early lesions of 5- and 11-month-old foals, while LP cross-linking was decreased in subchondral bone of the end-stage lesions of both 5- and 11-month-old foals. Hydroxylysine content was unaffected. Collagen content remained reduced in cartilage from middle- and end-stage lesions, but returned to normal in subchondral bone. In cartilage there was a decrease in proteoglycan content in the end-stage lesions of both age groups. Thus, alterations of the collagen component, but not of the proteoglycan component, of the extracellular matrix might play a role in early OC. More severe lesions show a more general picture of an unspecific repair reaction. Biomarkers of collagen metabolism can be expected to be good candidates for early detection of OC.

Abstract
Matrix metalloproteinases (MMPs) have been implicated as mediators of tissue damage in several inflammatory diseases. Since the multiple organ dysfunction syndrome (MODS) is thought to result from systemic inflammation, overactivation of MMPs could contribute to the organ damage observed. The expression and activity of several MMPs were studied in a murine model for MODS. Sixty mice were given an aseptic intraperitoneal injection of lipopolysaccharide, followed, after 6 days, by zymosan. At days 2, 5, 8, 12, and 16 after the injection of zymosan, the liver, lungs, spleen, and kidneys were collected from groups of mice for either RNA extraction, gelatinase zymography and collagenase (MMP-1 and -13) assays (six mice per time point), or immunohistochemistry (three mice per time point). A group of nine mice did not receive zymosan and acted as controls. The expression of MMP-2 mRNA in zymosan-treated mice was strongly up-regulated in liver tissue only. For MMP-9, this was the case in all organs examined. Quantitative gelatin zymography demonstrated the near complete absence of any gelatinase activity in tissues from control mice. However, in the liver, lungs, and especially the spleen of zymosan-treated animals, significantly increased activity of proform and active MMP-2 and -9 was observed with time. Overall, MMP-1 and -13 activities were very low in all samples from the liver and lungs. In the spleen, however, high levels of MMP-1 and -13 were observed in zymosan-treated animals. Immunohistochemical staining for MMP-2 was detected in the liver and spleen, but not in lung and kidney tissue of zymosan-treated animals. Staining for MMP-9 could be detected in liver, lung, and spleen tissues of zymosan-treated mice. For both MMPs, staining appeared to be limited to phagocytes. In conclusion, the data suggest a role for MMPs, especially MMP-9, in the pathogenesis of MODS.

Abstract
OBJECTIVE To analyse matrix metalloproteinases (MMPs) and tissue inhibitor-1 of MMPs (TIMP-1) levels in the systemic circulation and synovial fluid (SF) of patients with RA and to compare these levels with inflammatory and collagen degradation markers. METHODS ProMMP-1, -2, -3, -8, -9, TIMP-1, levels of MMP/alpha(2)-macroglobulin complexes, and collagen degradation products were measured by sandwich ELISA, activity assays, and HPLC in paired SF and serum samples from 15 patients with RA and 13 with OA. RESULTS MMPs were higher in SF of patients with RA than in OA or controls. MMP levels in SF of patients with OA were higher than in controls. In serum, levels of proMMP-3, -8 and -9 were higher in patients with RA than in OA or controls, whereas only proMMP-8 and -9 were higher in serum of patients with OA than in controls. A strong correlation was seen between serum and SF levels of MMP-8 and -9 in RA. Increased levels of MMP/alpha(2)-macroglobulin complexes indicated an MMP/TIMP imbalance in serum and SF in RA. SF hydroxyproline correlated significantly with SF levels of proMMP-9 in RA. CONCLUSIONS Systemic MMP-8 and -9 levels represent the situation in the inflamed joint; MMP-9 is likely to be involved in degradation of joint collagen. The hypothesis of MMP/TIMP imbalance in RA is strengthened.

Abstract
BACKGROUND Matrix metalloproteinases (MMPs) have been reported to play an important role in tumour cell invasion and metastasis. The bioactivity of MMPs in liver metastasis from colorectal cancer was investigated and correlated with clinicopathological variables. METHOD Thirty-two patients underwent resection of colorectal cancer liver metastases. Latent and active forms of MMP were measured in tissue extracts, by means of quantitative gelatin zymography and a fluorometric activity assay. RESULTS Broad-spectrum MMP activity, and levels of both active and latent forms of MMP-2 and MMP-9, were higher in tissues containing metastatic tumour than in normal liver tissue. Median metastatic to normal tissue ratios were 15.0 and 17.6 for active and proMMP-2 respectively, and those for active and proMMP-9 were 6.2 and 2.9. The ratios of active to latent enzyme were higher in metastatic tissue than in normal tissue. Lowered MMP-2 activity was associated with large metastatic lesions and increased proMMP-9 levels with preoperative chemotherapy. Both MMP-2 and MMP-9 activity were linked unfavourably to early recurrent disease. CONCLUSION These data suggest a role for MMPs in colorectal cancer liver metastasis, but indicate different roles for individual MMPs.

Abstract
OBJECTIVE To analyse the relation between systemic levels of pro-MMP-3, -8, and -9 matrix metalloproteinase (MMP) activity in alpha(2) macroglobulin (alpha(2)M)/MMP complexes and the progression of joint destruction in patients with recent onset rheumatoid arthritis (RA). METHODS 109 patients with RA of recent onset were entered into this longitudinal study. Patients were followed up for two years; clinical data, blood samples, and radiographs were obtained at baseline and at 1 and 2 years. Serum levels of MMPs were measured by sandwich ELISA and MMP activity assays. RESULTS During the two years joint damage progressed from 0 to 10 (median Sharp score, p<0.001). Stable levels of pro-MMP-3 and a significant decrease in the levels of pro-MMP-8 and -9 and alpha(2)M/MMP complexes were seen throughout the two years. Regression analysis showed that serum pro-MMP-3 levels at disease onset were independently associated with the progression of joint damage (B=0.7, 95% CI 0.3 to 1.1, p=0.001). Based on the rate of joint destruction, patients were divided into two subgroups: patients with mild and severe joint damage progression. The pro-MMP-3 levels were significantly higher in the group with severe compared with mild disease at all times. Levels of pro-MMP-8 and -9 were decreased in both groups, whereas alpha(2)M/MMP complex levels decreased in the group with mild disease only. CONCLUSION Serum levels of the MMPs studied are associated with disease activity, but serum pro-MMP-3 levels at the onset of disease are also predictive of joint damage progression.

Abstract
OBJECTIVE The aim of the present study was to analyze alpha 2 Macroglobulin/MMP (alpha 2M/MMP) complex formation and to investigate whether MMP activity in alpha 2M/MMP complexes in serum can be used as a disease marker in rheumatoid arthritis (RA). METHODS High and low molecular weight (H/LMW) substrates and inhibitors and size exclusion were used to analyze alpha 2M/MMP complex formation. LMW fluorogenic substrates were used to quantify the level of MMPs in alpha 2M/MMP complexes in the serum of RA patients and healthy controls. RESULTS Active MMPs were fully inhibited by LMW inhibitor BB94 in the presence of alpha 2M, whereas no inhibition was achieved by HMW inhibitor TIMP-1. Size exclusion analysis showed alpha 2M/MMP complex formation in buffer and in normal plasma spiked with activated MMPs, which indicated alpha 2M/MMP complex formation in the systemic circulation. MMP activity in alpha 2M/MMP complexes in the serum of RA patients was significantly higher than in the serum of healthy controls (P < 0.001). MMP activity levels in the serum of RA patients were correlated with ESR (r = 0.72, P < 0.001). CONCLUSION In the systemic circulation of RA patients, active MMPs form complexes with alpha 2M and can be detected using LMW fluorogenic substrates. MMP activity measurements in serum allow discrimination between RA patients and healthy controls and provide a new tool for the assessment of the disease process in RA.

Abstract
Dentine root caries is a process of demineralization and degradation of the organic matrix by proteinases. In this in situ study, the presence and activity of the matrix metalloproteinases 1, 2 and 9 (MMP-1, MMP-2, MMP-9) in saliva and in completely demineralized dentine specimens were investigated. Furthermore, the activity of cathepsin B was determined in saliva. A correlation between these enzymes and the level of degraded collagen was investigated. Demineralized dentine specimens were mounted in the partial prosthesis of 17 volunteers. Saliva samples were taken at 0, 2 and 4 weeks. After 4 weeks, the enzymes were extracted from the dentine specimens and the collagen loss was assessed. The collagen loss varied between 0 and 40.3%. Zymography of the saliva and the dentine extract samples showed that (pro-)MMP-2 and (pro-)MMP-9 were present. The levels of active MMPs were assessed, using fluorogenic MMP-specific substrates. All but 3 of the 51 saliva samples showed MMP-1 activity ranging from 1.5 to 101.1 relative fluorescence units (RFU)/s. Forty-eight saliva samples showed gelatinolytic MMP-2/MMP-9 activity (1.7-141.1 RFU/s). MMP-1 activity was shown in all dentine extracts varying between 3.5 and 295.0 RFU/s. From the dentine extracts, 15 showed MMP-2/MMP-9 activity (0.2-13.7 RFU/s). The MMP activity from both saliva and dentine extracts did not correlate with the collagen loss. The activity of salivary cathepsin B varied from 4.8 to 42.2 arbitrary units/min. A positive correlation was found between salivary MMP activity and cathepsin B activity. This study revealed that gelatinolytic enzyme activity was present both in saliva and dentine collagen. No correlation could be observed, however, between the level of enzyme activity and the collagen loss of the dentine specimens.

Abstract
The bioactivity of matrix metalloproteinases was studied in tissues from colorectal cancer patients by means of both quantitative gelatin zymography and a fluorometric activity assay. Next to paired samples of tumour tissue and distant normal mucosa (n=73), transitional tissue was analysed from a limited (n=33) number of patients. Broad-spectrum matrix metalloproteinase activity and both the active and latent forms of the gelatinases matrix metalloproteinase-2 and -9 were higher in tumour than in normal mucosa. The ratio's between active and latent forms of matrix metalloproteinase-2 and -9 were highest in tumour tissue and normal mucosa, respectively. Matrix metalloproteinase-2 levels, both active and latent forms, correlated inversely with stage of disease, the tumours without synchronous distant metastases containing significantly (P=0.005) more active matrix metalloproteinase-2 than the others. At much lower levels of activity, the same trend was observed in distant normal mucosa. The level of latent form of matrix metalloproteinase-9 in tumour depended on tumour location. Neither the active form of matrix metalloproteinase-9 nor broad-spectrum matrix metalloproteinase activity in tumour tissue did correlate with any of the clinicopathological parameters investigated. The results demonstrate explicit differences between the activity of matrix metalloproteinase-2 and -9, indicating different roles for both gelatinases in tumour progression. Such data are necessary in order to develop rational anti-cancer therapies based on inhibition of specific matrix metalloproteinases.

Abstract
OBJECTIVE Chondrocyte death in articular cartilage wound edges and the subsequent lack of matrix-producing cells in the interface area are considered to be a major cause of impaired cartilage wound healing and poor integrative cartilage repair. This study was undertaken to investigate whether enzymatic matrix digestion can be used to stimulate integrative cartilage repair via a mechanism of local increase in the amount of vital chondrocytes in cartilage wound edges. METHODS Full-thickness bovine articular cartilage samples were cultured in vitro for 14 days in standard medium. Samples were either left untreated or treated for 48 hours with 0.3% hyaluronidase or 30 units/ml highly purified collagenase VII. Nuclear and cytoplasmic changes were analyzed to determine cell viability, and the number of vital chondrocytes in wound edges was determined. Subsequently, we investigated whether increased chondrocyte density in the lesion edges resulted in better wound healing. Finally, full-thickness human tibial plateau cartilage explants were tested with similar enzyme treatment protocols to determine the clinical value of our results. RESULTS In bovine explants a rapid onset of chondrocyte death was observed in wound edges in all treatment groups. This led to low chondrocyte density in a band of 0-150 microm from the lesion edges in untreated and hyaluronidase-treated explants. Treatment with 30 units/ml collagenase resulted in a significant increase in chondrocyte density in this area. The integration experiments demonstrated improved integration of the lesion edges after treatment with collagenase. In human articular cartilage an increase in chondrocyte density at the lesion edges could also be achieved, but only when proteoglycans were depleted from the wound edges prior to collagenase treatment. CONCLUSION Treatment with highly purified collagenase improves integrative cartilage repair, possibly by increasing the cell density at cartilage wound edges.

Abstract
OBJECTIVE Progressive destruction of articular cartilage is a hallmark of osteoarthritis (OA) and rheumatoid arthritis (RA). Age-related changes in cartilage may influence tissue destruction and thus progression of the disease. Therefore, the effect of age-related accumulation of advanced glycation end products (AGEs) on cartilage susceptibility to proteolytic degradation by matrix metalloproteinases (MMPs) present in synovial fluid (SF) of OA and RA patients was studied. METHODS Cartilage was incubated with APMA-activated SF obtained from OA or RA patients, and tissue degradation was assessed by colorimetric measurement of glycosaminoglycan (GAG) release. Cartilage degradation was related to the level of AGEs in cartilage from donors of different ages (33-83 years) and in cartilage with in vitro-enhanced AGE levels (by incubation with ribose). MMP activity in SF was measured using a fluorogenic substrate. AGE levels were assessed by high-performance liquid chromatography measurement of the glycation product pentosidine. RESULTS In cartilage from donors ages 33-83 years, a strong correlation was found between the age-related increase in pentosidine and the decrease in MMP-mediated tissue degradation (r = -0.74, P < 0.0005). Multiple regression analysis showed pentosidine to be the strongest predictor of the decreased GAG release (P < 0.0005); age did not contribute (P > 0.8). In addition, decreased MMP-mediated GAG release was proportional to increased pentosidine levels after in vitro enhancement of glycation (r = -0.27, P < 0.01). This was demonstrated for both OA and RA SF (for control versus glycated, P < 0.002 for all SF samples tested). CONCLUSION Increased cartilage AGEs resulted in decreased cartilage degradation by MMPs from SF, indicating that aged cartilage is less sensitive than young cartilage to MMP-mediated cartilage degradation, such as occurs in OA and RA. Therefore, the level of cartilage glycation may influence the progression of these diseases.

Abstract
OBJECTIVE The prevalence of osteoarthritis (OAs) increases with age and coincides with the accumulation of advanced glycation endproducts (AGEs) in articular cartilage, suggesting that accumulation of glycation products may be involved in the development of OA. This study was designed to examine the effects of accumulation of AGEs on the turnover of the extracellular matrix of human articular cartilage. DESIGN Chondrocyte mediated cartilage degradation (GAG release, colorimetric) was measured in human articular cartilage of donors aged 19-82 years (N=30, 4-day culture). In addition, to mimic the age-related increase in AGE levels in vitro, cartilage was cultured in the absence or presence of glucose, ribose or threose. Cartilage degradation and proteoglycan synthesis ((35)SO(2)(-4) incorporation) were measured and related to the degree of cartilage AGE levels (fluorescence at 360/460 nm). RESULTS Chondrocyte-mediated degradation of articular cartilage (i.e. GAG release) decreased with increasing age of the cartilage donor (r=-0.43, P< 0.02). In vitro incubation of cartilage with glucose, ribose or threose resulted in a range of AGE levels that was highly correlated to the chondrocyte-mediated cartilage degradation (r=-0.77, P< 0.001, N=26). In addition, in these in vitro glycated cartilage samples, a decrease in proteoglycan synthesis was observed at increasing AGE levels (r=-0.54, P< 0.005, N=25). CONCLUSIONS This study shows that an increase in AGE levels negatively affects the proteoglycan synthesis and degradation of articular cartilage. In combination, these two effects reduce the turnover of the cartilage and thereby the maintenance and repair capacity of the tissue. By this mechanism, the age-related increase in cartilage AGE levels may contribute to the development of OA.

Abstract
During aging, non-enzymatic glycation results in the formation and accumulation of the advanced glycation endproduct pentosidine in long-lived proteins, such as articular cartilage collagen. In the present study, we investigated whether pentosidine accumulation also occurs in cartilage aggrecan. Furthermore, pentosidine levels in aggrecan subfractions of different residence time were used to explore pentosidine levels as a quantitative measure of aggrecan turnover. In order to compare protein turnover rates, protein residence time was measured as racemization of aspartic acid. As has previously been shown for collagen, pentosidine levels increase with age in cartilage aggrecan. Consistent with the faster turnover of aggrecan compared to collagen, the rate of pentosidine accumulation was threefold lower in aggrecan than in collagen. In the subfractions of aggrecan, pentosidine levels increased with protein residence time. These pentosidine levels were used to estimate the half-life of the globular hyaluronan-binding domain of aggrecan to be 19.5 years. This value is in good agreement with the half-life of 23.5 years that was estimated based on aspartic acid racemization. In aggrecan from osteoarthritic (OA) cartilage, decreased pentosidine levels were found compared with normal cartilage, which reflects increased aggrecan turnover during the OA disease process. In conclusion, we showed that pentosidine accumulates with age in aggrecan and that pentosidine levels can be used as a measure of turnover of long-lived proteins, both during normal aging and during disease.

Abstract
The integrity of the collagen network is essential for articular cartilage to fulfill its function in load support and distribution. Damage to the collagen network is one of the first characteristics of osteoarthritis. Since extensive collagen damage is considered irreversible, it is crucial that chondrocytes maintain a functional collagen network. We investigated the effects of advanced glycation end products (AGEs) on the turnover of collagen by articular cartilage chondrocytes. Increased AGE levels (by culturing in the presence of ribose) resulted in decreased collagen synthesis (P < 0.05) and decreased MMP-mediated collagen degradation (P < 0.02). The latter could be attributed to increased resistance of the collagen network to MMPs (P < 0.05) as well as the decreased production of MMPs by chondrocytes (P < 0.02). Turnover of a protein is determined by its synthesis and degradation rates and therefore these data indicate that collagen turnover is decreased at enhanced AGE levels. Since AGE levels in human cartilage increase approximately 50 fold between age 20 and 80, cartilage collagen turnover likely decreases with increasing age. Impaired collagen turnover adversely affects the capacity of chondrocytes to remodel and/or repair its extracellular matrix. Consequently, age-related accumulation of AGE (via decreased collagen turnover) may contribute to the development of cartilage damage in osteoarthritis.

Abstract
Collagen molecules in articular cartilage have an exceptionally long lifetime, which makes them susceptible to the accumulation of advanced glycation end products (AGEs). In fact, in comparison to other collagen-rich tissues, articular cartilage contains relatively high amounts of the AGE pentosidine. To test the hypothesis that this higher AGE accumulation is primarily the result of the slow turnover of cartilage collagen, AGE levels in cartilage and skin collagen were compared with the degree of racemization of aspartic acid (% d-Asp, a measure of the residence time of a protein). AGE (N(epsilon)-(carboxymethyl)lysine, N(epsilon)-(carboxyethyl)lysine, and pentosidine) and % d-Asp concentrations increased linearly with age in both cartilage and skin collagen (p < 0.0001). The rate of increase in AGEs was greater in cartilage collagen than in skin collagen (p < 0.0001). % d-Asp was also higher in cartilage collagen than in skin collagen (p < 0.0001), indicating that cartilage collagen has a longer residence time in the tissue, and thus a slower turnover, than skin collagen. In both types of collagen, AGE concentrations increased linearly with % d-Asp (p < 0.0005). Interestingly, the slopes of the curves of AGEs versus % d-Asp, i.e. the rates of accumulation of AGEs corrected for turnover, were identical for cartilage and skin collagen. The present study thus provides the first experimental evidence that protein turnover is a major determinant in AGE accumulation in different collagen types. From the age-related increases in % d-Asp the half-life of cartilage collagen was calculated to be 117 years and that of skin collagen 15 years, thereby providing the first reasonable estimates of the half-lives of these collagens.

Abstract
Non-enzymic modification of tissue proteins by reducing sugars, the so-called Maillard reaction, is a prominent feature of aging. In articular cartilage, relatively high levels of the advanced glycation end product (AGE) pentosidine accumulate with age. Higher pentosidine levels have been associated with a stiffer collagen network in cartilage. However, even in cartilage, pentosidine levels themselves represent <1 cross-link per 20 collagen molecules, and as such cannot be expected to contribute substantially to the increase in collagen network stiffness. In the present study, we investigated a broad range of Maillard reaction products in cartilage collagen in order to determine whether pentosidine serves as an adequate marker for AGE levels. Not only did the well-characterized AGEs pentosidine, N(epsilon)-(carboxymethyl)lysine, and N(epsilon)-(carboxyethyl)lysine increase with age in cartilage collagen (all P<0.0001), but also general measures of AGE cross-linking, such as browning and fluorescence (both P<0.0001), increased. The levels of these AGEs are all higher in cartilage collagen than in skin collagen. As a functional measure of glycation the digestibility of articular collagen by bacterial collagenase was investigated; digestibility decreased linearly with age, proportional to the extent of glycation. Furthermore, the arginine content and the sum of the hydroxylysine and lysine content of cartilage collagen decrease significantly with age (P<0.0001 and P<0. 01 respectively), possibly due to modification by the Maillard reaction. The observed relationship between glycation and amino acid modification has not been reported previously in vivo. Our present results indicate that extensive accumulation of a variety of Maillard reaction products occurs in cartilage collagen with age. Altogether our results support the hypothesis that glycation contributes to stiffer and more brittle cartilage with advancing age.

Abstract
OBJECTIVE To examine the effect of nonenzymatic glycation of cartilage extracellular matrix on the synthetic activity of chondrocytes. METHODS The proteoglycan-synthesis rate (35SO4(2-) incorporation) and levels of advanced nonenzymatic glycation (determined by high-performance liquid chromatography measurement of pentosidine) were evaluated in human articular cartilage from 129 donors, varying in age from 25 to 88 years, and in cartilage with enhanced levels of advanced glycation end-products (AGEs) resulting from incubation with ribose. RESULTS Cartilage showed a strong age-related increase in pentosidine levels (r = 0.97, P < 0.0005) and, concomitantly, a decrease in proteoglycan synthesis (r = -0.98, P < 0.0002). This decrease in proteoglycan synthesis correlated with the increase in pentosidine (r = -0.95, P < 0.02). Moreover, the elevation of pentosidine levels in the in vitro-ribosylated cartilage was proportional with the decrease in proteoglycan synthesis (r = -0.95, P < 0.005). CONCLUSION In both aged and in vitro AGE-enriched cartilage, the rate of proteoglycan synthesis was negatively correlated with the degree of glycation. This suggests that the age-related increase in cartilage AGE levels may be responsible, at least in part, for the age-related decline in the synthetic capacity of cartilage.

Abstract
Doxycycline (DOX) profoundly inhibited collagen synthesis by differentiated articular chondrocytes. At 25 microM, the rate of collagen synthesis was suppressed by more than 50% without affecting cell proliferation (DNA levels) and general protein synthesis (35S-Met and 35S-Cys incorporation). Steady-state mRNA levels of type II collagen were also reduced, indicating that DOX may have an effect at the transcriptional level of type II collagen. The IC50 value of DOX to downregulate collagen synthesis (17 microM) is close to DOX levels attained in vivo (< 10 microM), and it is more than ten-fold lower than the IC50 values to inhibit the activity of most matrix metalloproteinases (MMPs). As such, these findings support the hypothesis that the reduced severity of OA observed in the dog anterior cruciate ligament model resulting from prophylactic treatment with DOX may involve mechanisms other than MMP inhibition alone. Our findings suggest that prevention of changes in the chondrocyte phenotype may be involved in the beneficial effect of doxycycline in experimental osteoarthritis, for differentiated chondrocytes in early stages of osteoarthritis exhibit elevated collagen synthesis.

Abstract
Most companies view work and personal life as competing priorities in a zero-sum game, in which a gain in one area means a loss in the other. From this traditional perspective, managers decide how their employees' work and personal lives should intersect and often view work-life programs as just so much social welfare. A new breed of managers, however, is trying a new tack, one in which managers and employees collaborate to achieve work and personal objectives to everyone's benefit. These managers are guided by three principles. The first is to clearly inform their employees about business priorities and to encourage them to be just as clear about personal priorities. The second is to recognize and support their employees as whole people, not only acknowledging but also celebrating their roles outside the office. The third is to continually experiment with the way work gets done, looking for approaches that enhance the organization's performance and allow employees to pursue personal goals. The managers who are acting on these principles have discovered that conflicts between work and personal priorities can actually be catalysts for identifying inefficiencies at the workplace. For example, one manager and his staff found a way to accommodate the increased workload at their 24-hour-a-day command center while granting the staff more concentrated time off. So far, these managers have usually been applying the principles without official sanction. But as the business impact of their approach becomes better appreciated, the authors predict, more and more companies will view these leaders as heralds of change.
