<P>The extracellular matrix (ECM) of cartilage performs essential functions in differentiation and chondroprogenitor cell maintenance during development and regeneration. Here, we discuss the vital role of matrilin-3, an ECM protein involved in cartilage development and potential osteoarthritis pathomechanisms. As an adaptor protein, matrilin-3 binds to collagen IX to form a filamentous network around cells. Matrilin-3 is an essential component during cartilage development and ossification. In addition, it interacts directly or indirectly with transforming growth factor β (TGF-β), and bone morphogenetic protein 2 (BMP2) eventually regulates chondrocyte proliferation and hypertrophic differentiation. Interestingly, matrilin-3 increases interleukin receptor antagonists (IL-Ra) in chondrocytes, suggesting its role in the suppression of IL-1β-mediated inflammatory action. Matrilin-3 downregulates the expression of matrix-degrading enzymes, such as a disintegrin metalloproteinase with thrombospondin motifs 4 (ADAMTS4) and ADAMTS5, matrix metalloproteinase 13 (MMP13), and collagen X, a hypertrophy marker during development and inflammatory conditions. Matrilin-3 essentially enhances collagen II and aggrecan expression, which are required to maintain the tensile strength and elasticity of cartilage, respectively. Interestingly, despite these attributes, matrilin-3 induces osteoarthritis-associated markers in chondrocytes in a concentration-dependent manner. Existing data provide insights into the critical role of matrilin-3 in inflammation, matrix degradation, and matrix formation in cartilage development and osteoarthritis.</P>

<P>Matrilin-3 is an essential extracellular matrix component present only in cartilaginous tissues. Matrilin-3 exerts chondroprotective effects by regulating an anti-inflammatory function and extracellular matrix components. We hypothesized that the codelivery of matrilin-3 with infrapatellar adipose-tissue-derived mesenchymal stem cells (Ad-MSCs) may enhance articular cartilage regeneration. Matrilin-3 treatment of Ad-MSCs in serum-free media induced collagen II and aggrecan expression, and matrilin-3 in chondrogenic media also enhanced in vitro chondrogenic differentiation. Next, the in vivo effect of matrilin-3 codelivery with Ad-MSCs on cartilage regeneration was assessed in an osteochondral defect model in Sprague Dawley rats: Ad-MSCs and hyaluronic acid were implanted at the defect site with or without matrilin-3 (140, 280, and 700ng). Safranin O staining revealed that matrilin-3 (140 and 280ng) treatment significantly improved cartilage regeneration and glycosaminoglycan accumulation. In the animals treated with 140-ng matrilin-3, in particular, the defect site exhibited complete integration with surrounding tissue and a smooth glistening surface. The International Cartilage Repair Society macroscopic and O'Driscoll microscopic scores for regenerated cartilage were furthermore shown to be considerably higher for this group (matrilin-3; 140ng) compared with the other groups. Furthermore, the defects treated with 140-ng matrilin-3 revealed significant hyaline-like cartilage regeneration in the osteochondral defect model; in contrast, the defects treated with 700-ng matrilin-3 exhibited drastically reduced cartilage regeneration with mixed hyaline-fibrocartilage morphology. Codelivery of matrilin-3 with Ad-MSCs significantly influenced articular cartilage regeneration, supporting the potential use of this tissue-specific protein for a cartilage-targeted stem cell therapy.</P>

<P>After spinal cord injury (SCI), tight junction (TJ) protein degradation increases permeability and disrupts the blood-spinal cord barrier (BSCB). The BSCB is primarily formed of endothelial cell, which forms a specialized tight seal due to the presence of TJs. BSCB disruption after SCI allows neutrophil infiltration. Matrix metalloproteinase (MMP)-8 is believed to be mainly expressed by neutrophils and is quickly released upon neutrophil activation. Here, we determined whether MMP-8 is involved in the TJ protein degradation in endothelial cells and also determined its role in the neuroinflammation after SCI. MMP-8 recombinant protein treatment increases the TNF-alpha expression and decreased the TJ (occludin and zonula occludens-1) protein expression in the endothelial cells. Likewise, specific MMP-8 inhibitor (MMP-8I) significantly prevented the TNF-alpha-induced decrease in the expression of TJ protein in endothelial cells. Furthermore, MMP-8 expression was significantly increased 1 and 3 days after moderate compression (35 g for 5 min at T10 level) SCI, whereas TJ protein levels decreased as determined qRT-PCR, western blotting, and immunohistochemistry. MMP-8 was inhibited directly using a MMP-8I (5 mg/kg) and indirectly by reducing neutrophil infiltration with sivelestat sodium (50 mg/kg) or using the antioxidant N-acetyl-l-cysteine (100 mg/kg). The MMP-8I significantly decreased TNF-alpha expression, IL-6, and iNOS expression and increased TJ protein expression after SCI. In addition, MMP-8I significantly lessens the amount of Evans blue dye extravasation observed after injury. Thus, our result suggests that MMP-8 plays an imperative role in inflammation and degradation of TJ proteins. Increased MMP-8 expression was associated with the early inflammatory phase of SCI. Inhibiting MMP-8 significantly attenuated SCI-induced inflammation, BSCB breakdown, and cell injury.</P>
