Pannexin 3 (PANX3) is a channel-forming protein capable of stimulating osteogenesis in vitro. Here we studied the in vivo roles of PANX3 in the chicken embryo using the RCAS retroviral system to over-express and knockdown expression during endochondral bone formation. In the limbs, PANX3 RNA was first detected in the cartilage condensations and became restricted to the prehypertrophic cartilage of the epiphyses, diaphysis and perichondrium. The increase in PANX3 was not sufficient to alter osteogenesis, however a virus containing an interference RNA construct caused a 20% reduction in bone volume. The control virus containing a shEGFP cassette did not affect development. Interestingly, the phenotype was restricted to later stages rather than to proliferation of the skeletogenic mesenchyme, formation of the cartilage condensation or creation of the hypertrophic zones. In addition, there was also no change in readouts of Hh, WNT, FGF or BMP signaling using either QPCR or radioactive in situ hybridization. Based on the normal expression domains of PANX3 and the relatively late manifestation of the phenotype, it is possible that PANX3 hemichannels may be required to facilitate the transition of hypertrophic chondrocytes to osteoblasts, thereby achieving final bone size.
