Processes involved in equine carpal osteochondral injury have not been established. In other species, fibronectin appears important in chondrocyte-matrix interactions, and levels are increased in osteoarthritis. This investigation aimed to (a) describe fibronectin immunoreactivity in the middle carpal joint of 2-year-old Thoroughbreds, (b) determine topographical variations, (c) compare strenuously trained (Group 1) or gently exercised horses (Group 2) and (d) describe sites with early osteoarthritis. Group 1 (n = 6) underwent a 19 week high intensity treadmill training programme. Group 2 (n = 6) underwent 40 min walking until euthanasia. Dorsal and palmar sites on radial, intermediate and third carpal articular surfaces were prepared. Immunohistochemistry was performed using a biotin-streptavidin/peroxidase method. Cross-reactivity of rabbit antihuman fibronectin antiserum with equine fibronectin was confirmed using Western blotting. Results showed: (a) fibronectin was present primarily in pericellular and interterritorial matrix locations, (b) dorsal sites had zonal immunoreactivity compared to palmar sites, (c) Group 1 dorsal radial carpal cartilage had increased superficial staining compared to Group 2 and (d) fibrillated cartilage showed increased intracellular and local matrical immunoreactivity (superficial zone). These findings suggest topographical and exercise-related variations in fibronectin distribution, and indicate equine fibronectin is localised at sites of cartilage degeneration and released into the matrix by chondrocytes in the local area.
