项目摘要

DESCRIPTION (provided by applicant): A significant amount of data exists regarding the formation and differentiation of muscle, bone and tendon tissue individually, but little is understood regarding molecular mechanisms that allow these tissues to make appropriate connections with one another. This knowledge is critical for establishing useful therapies to repair these tissues after disruption from injury or disease. Hox genes perform fundamental roles in patterning the skeleton, but new preliminary data shows that Hox gene expression in the developing limb is not restricted to skeletal tissue, and these genes also appear to play less anticipated roles in patterning tendon and muscle tissue as well as in the integration of all three tissue types. Recent data additionally that shows that these genes are highly up-regulated following injury, suggesting a role in the healing and remodeling that occurs in response to injury. The long-term goal of this research is to understand how Hox genes regulate the region- specific formation and integration of the musculoskeletal system and how this information can be used to inform regenerative therapies following injury or disease. The objective of this proposal is to achieve an understanding of the cellular mechanisms of Hox function in the development and integration of muscle, tendon and bone in the developing forelimb and how these mechanisms are redeployed in response to injury. The central hypothesis is that Hox11 genes function to direct the patterning and the integration of the muscle, tendon and cartilage in the developing limb and that these genes are up-regulated in response to injury to allow proper repair and remodeling in vivo. How Hox11 genes contribute to the formation and patterning of muscle groups, tendons and cartilage elements within the developing limb will be assessed using existing null alleles and fluorescent reporter lines. The spatiotemporal control of Hox-mediated patterning and the establishment of connectivity in the musculoskeletal system will be examined by conditionally ablating Hox function using spatial and temporally restricted Cre deletor lines. Finally, the roles for Hox genes in tissue repair and skeletal remodeling will be determined by conditionally ablating Hox function in adulthood (after proper musculoskeletal patterning has been achieved) and examining the effects of loss of Hox function on fracture repair and subsequent skeletal remodeling. The contribution of the proposed research is significant because critical new knowledge regarding the regional regulation musculoskeletal integration will be gained, the tissue(s) from which this information is transmitted will be defined, and how these factors are redeployed in adulthood to repair injuries will be determined. The research proposed in this application is innovative in identifying factors and cell types involved in the integration of individual components of the musculoskeletal system as well as in the novel tools generated to allow an understanding of the function of Hox genes in properly patterned adult tissue during injury repair processes. Together, the information gained from these studies will provide a paradigm-shifting understanding of Hox function in musculoskeletal biology.
描述(由申请人提供):存在大量关于肌肉、骨和肌腱组织单独形成和分化的数据,但对于允许这些组织彼此适当连接的分子机制了解甚少。这些知识对于建立有用的治疗方法以修复损伤或疾病破坏后的这些组织至关重要。Hox基因在骨骼图案化中发挥着重要作用,但新的初步数据表明,Hox基因在发育肢体中的表达并不局限于骨骼组织,而且这些基因在肌腱和肌肉组织图案化以及整合中似乎也发挥着不太预期的作用所有三种组织类型。最近的数据还表明,这些基因在损伤后高度上调,表明在响应损伤而发生的愈合和重塑中起作用。这项研究的长期目标是了解Hox基因如何调节肌肉骨骼系统的区域特异性形成和整合,以及这些信息如何用于告知损伤或疾病后的再生治疗。本提案的目的是实现Hox功能的细胞机制的理解,在发展中的前肢肌肉,肌腱和骨骼的发展和整合,以及如何重新部署这些机制,以应对损伤。核心假设是Hox11基因的功能是指导发育肢体中肌肉、肌腱和软骨的模式化和整合,并且这些基因响应于损伤而上调,以允许体内适当的修复和重塑。Hox11基因如何促进发育肢体内肌肉群、肌腱和软骨元素的形成和模式化,将使用现有的无效等位基因和荧光报告基因系进行评估。Hox介导的图案化的时空控制和肌肉骨骼系统中的连接的建立将通过使用空间和时间限制的Cre删除线有条件地消融Hox功能来检查。最后,Hox基因在组织修复和骨骼重塑中的作用将通过在成年期有条件地消融Hox功能(在已经实现适当的肌肉骨骼模式之后)并检查Hox功能丧失对骨折修复和随后的骨骼重塑的影响来确定。拟议研究的贡献是重要的,因为将获得关于区域调节肌肉骨骼整合的关键新知识,将定义传输此信息的组织,以及将确定这些因素如何在成年后重新部署以修复损伤。本申请中提出的研究在识别参与肌肉骨骼系统各个组成部分整合的因素和细胞类型方面具有创新性,并且在所产生的新工具中具有创新性,以允许理解Hox基因在损伤修复过程中正确模式化的成人组织中的功能。总之,从这些研究中获得的信息将提供对Hox在肌肉骨骼生物学中功能的范式转变理解。
