Differentiated articular chondrocytes express a functional isoform of the leptin receptor (LRb); however, leptin-LRb signaling in these cells is poorly understood. We hypothesized that leptin-LRb signaling in articular chondrocytes functions to modulate canonical Wnt signaling events by altering the expression of Frizzled receptors. Human chondrocyte cell lines and primary articular chondrocytes were grown in serum containing growth media for 24 hrs, followed by a media change to DMEM containing 1% Nutridoma-SP to obtain a serum-deficient environment for 24 hours before treatment. Treatments included recombinant human leptin (10–100 nM), recombinant human IL-6 (0.3-3 nM), or recombinant human erythropoietin (10 mU/ml). Cells were harvested 30 min to 48 hrs after treatment and whole cell lysates were analyzed using immunoblots or luciferase assays. Treatment of cells with leptin resulted in activation of JAK2 and subsequent phosphorylation of specific tyrosine residues on LRb, followed by dose- and time-dependent increases in the expression of Frizzled-1 (Fzd1) and Frizzled-7 (Fzd7). Leptin-mediated increases in the expression of Fzd1 and Fzd7 were blocked by pre-treatment with the protein synthesis inhibitor cycloheximide or the JAK2 inhibitor AG490. Experiments using a series of hybrid erythropoietin extracellular domain-leptin intracellular domain receptors (ELR) harboring mutations of specific tyrosine residues in the cytoplasmic tail showed that increases in the expression of Fzd1 and Fzd7 were dependent on LRb-mediated phosphorylation of STAT3, but not ERK1/2 or STAT5. Leptin pre-treatment of chondrocytes prior to Wnt-3a stimulation resulted in an increased magnitude of canonical Wnt signaling. These experiments show that leptin-LRb signaling in articular chondrocytes modulates expression of canonical Wnt signaling receptors and suggests that direct cross-talk between these pathways is important in determining chondrocyte homeostasis.
