1 Introduction

Skeletal development in vertebrate limb beginswith chondro-genesis in which prechondrogenic cells condense and thendifferentiate into chondrocytes to form a variety of preciselyshaped cartilage elements that are ultimately replaced bybone tissues through endochondral ossification [1] Thisindicates that the prechondrogenic condensation is a criticalstep for skeletal pattern formation in limb development Werecently found that ATP oscillations play a key role in pre-chondrogenic condensation during chondrogenesis [2ndash4] Itwas demonstrated that extracellular ATP and cAMPPKAsignaling mediate ATP oscillations during chondrogenesis[5] However how metabolic pathways are liked with ATPoscillations remains poorly understood

Metabolites are the main effectors of phenotype andfunctional entities in the cell [6] Thus metabolomics whichis defined as the measurement of the level of all intracellularmetabolites is a powerful tool for gaining insight intocellular functions Indeed metabolomic analyses are beingincreasingly performed to clarify biochemical mechanisms

to underlie various physiological processes [7ndash9] Thereforecomprehensive profiles of differential metabolite changesduring metabolic oscillations can reveal the connection ofbiochemical networks during metabolic oscillations and thusprovide a system-level understanding of metabolic oscilla-tions during chondrogenesis

Although most metabolic analyses have been performedwith gas chromatography mass spectrometry (GC-MS) [10]GC-MS is limited by the need for multiple deprivation proce-dures for each chemical moiety and the fact that nonvolatilethermolabile and highly polar compounds are difficult to bedetermined However capillary electrophoresis mass spec-trometry (CE-MS) in which metabolites are separated by CEbased on charge and size and then selectively detected usingMS has the major advantages in extremely high resolutionhigh throughput and ability to simultaneously quantify allcharged low-molecular weight compounds [11ndash13]Thus CE-MS has emerged as a useful tool for analyzing polar andcharged molecules [13ndash15]

Figure 1 ATP oscillations are linked with both glycolysis andmitochondrial respiration Either a glycolysis inhibitor iodoacetateor an inhibitor of mitochondrial respiration cyanide eliminatesinsulin-induced PACTIN-PxRe oscillations in ATDC5 cells Biolu-minescence monitoring of PACTIN-PxRe activity in ATDC5 cellswas performed after chondrogenic induction with the chondrogenicmedium (time = 0 h) About 24 hours after PACTIN-PxRe oscillationswere initiated ATDC5 cells were treated with iodoacetate orcyanide

transfection of ATP-dependent Phrixothrix hirtus luciferase(PxRe) reporter gene fused to a constitutiveACTINpromoter(PACTIN-PxRe) into the cells Consistent with the previousstudies [2ndash4] we found that ATP oscillations were generated2ndash4 d after chondrogenic induction (Figure 1) Since ATP isproducedmainly by glycolysis andmitochondrial respirationwe examined whether ATP oscillations depend on glycolysis

or mitochondrial respiration It was shown that both a gly-colysis inhibitor iodoacetate and a mitochondrial respirationinhibitor cyanide suppressed insulin-induced ATP oscilla-tions (Figure 1) This result indicates that ATP oscillations inchondrogenesis dependonboth glycolysis andmitochondrialrespiration

32 Heatmap for Differential Changes of Metabolites betweenPeak and Trough of ATP Oscillations To elucidate themetabolic pathways to generate ATP oscillations duringchondrogenesis the differential changes in the metabolitesbetween peak and trough of ATP oscillations were analyzedby using CE-TOF-MS analysis system When PACTIN-PxReoscillations revealed peak or trough as shown in Figure 2the metabolites were extracted from the ATDC5 cells CE-TOF-MS was used for interrogating the relative levels ofmetabolites between peaks and troughs in PACTIN-PxRe oscil-lations At molecular weights range from 500 to 100011989811991193 cationic and 109 anionic compounds were detected andanalyzed in this analysis To delineate the metabolomicalterations between peak and trough in ATP oscillations theratio of metabolite concentrations between peak and troughof PACTIN-PxRe oscillations was represented in heatmap(Figure 3) Among total compounds 15 cationic and 18anionic compounds revealed statistically significant changebetween peak and trough of PACTIN-PxRe oscillations

33 Metabolites to Significantly Increase at Peak of ATPOscillations in Comparison with That at Trough of ATPOscillations ATP showed higher concentration at the peakof PACTIN-PxRe oscillations than at the trough (Table 1)which confirmed that PACTIN-PxRe oscillations reflect ATPoscillations Besides ATP 3 cationic compounds such asO-acetylcarnitine phosphorylcholine and tyramine and11 anionic compounds such as fructose 16-bisphos-phatemalate fumaric acid 2-oxoglutaratecis-aconitic acid 13-bisphosphoglycerate 2-phosphoglycerate 3-phosphoglycer-ate NADHUDP-glucuronic acid and glucuronic acid weresignificantly increased at the peak of PACTIN-PxRe oscilla-tions (Table 1) This result suggests that intracellular levels ofthese compounds oscillate in phase with ATP oscillations

These compounds include glycolytic intermediates suchas fructose 16-bisphosphate 3-phosphoglyceric acid and 2-phosphoglyceric acid and intermediates of the tricarboxylicacid cycle (TCA cycle) such as cis-aconitic acid 2-oxoglutaricacid fumaric acid and malate This result implicates thatglycolysis and TCA cycle oscillate during ATP oscillationsPrevious studies reported the similar results that glycolyticoscillations are coupled to oscillations in mitochondrialmembrane potentials in S cerevisiae and pancreatic b-cells [17ndash19] and suggested that glycolytic oscillations drivemitochondrial oscillations [20] However the present resultthat either a glycolysis inhibitor or a mitochondrial inhibitorprevented ATP oscillations implies that glycolytic and mito-chondrial oscillations are interdependent on each other Inaddition NADH was significantly increased in the peak ofATP oscillations indicating that NADH oscillates in phasewith ATP oscillations Although it is uncertain how NADH

level stems from glycolysis or mitochondrial respirationNADH oscillations support that glycolysis or mitochondrialrespiration oscillates during ATP oscillations in chondrogen-esis

O-acetylcarnitine level was also higher in the peak ofATP oscillations which indicates that O-acetylcarnitine leveloscillates in phase with ATP oscillations L-carnitine andacetyl-CoA are converted to O-acetylcarnitine and CoAinside mitochondria by carnitine O-acetyltransferase andthe O-acetylcarnitine is transported outside the mitochon-dria where it converts back to O-carnitine and acetyl-CoA[21] It was known that cycling of acetyl-CoA through

O-acetylcarnitine plays a key role in matching instanta-neous acetyl-CoA supply with metabolic demand [22] Sinceacetyl-CoA is required for TCA cycle in mitochondria O-acetylcarnitine oscillations may contribute to mitochondrialoscillations by inducing oscillations of acetyl-CoA cyclingO-acetylcarnitine oscillations may be driven by oscillatoryactivity of carnitine O-acetyltransferase There is evidencethat suggests that carnitine O-acetyltransferase activity isnecessary for the cell cycle to proceed from the G1 phase tothe S phase [23] Therefore oscillatory activity of carnitineO-acetyltransferase may mediate prechondrogenic conden-sation by modulating cellular proliferation

In addition both uridine diphosphate (UDP)-glucuronicacid and glucuronic acid were significantly increased in thepeak of ATP oscillations UDP-glucuronic acid is the activeform of glucuronic acid for the incorporation of glucuronicacid into chondroitin sulphate [24] UDP-glucuronic acidis produced from glucose via uronic acid pathway glucose6-phosphate is isomerized to glucose 1-phosphate whichthen reacts with uridine triphosphate (UTP) to form UDPglucose in a reaction catalyzed by UDP-glucose pyrophos-phorylase and subsequently UDP glucose is oxidized byNAD-dependent UDP-glucose dehydrogenase to yield UDP-glucuronic acid [25] Therefore the uronic acid pathway ofglucose conversion to glucuronic acid may oscillate duringATP oscillations Furthermore since NADH is producedin the uronic acid pathway the oscillatory uronic acidpathway may contribute to generating NADH oscillationsduring chondrogenesis In addition glucuronic acid andUDP-glucuronic acid are used for synthesis of glycosamino-glycans [26] and the oscillatory uronic acid pathway candrive oscillatory synthesis of proteoglycans which are majorextracellular matrix (ECM) in cartilage Our previous reportdemonstrated that ATP oscillations drive oscillatory secre-tion and proposed that ATP oscillations lead to prechon-drogenic condensation by inducing oscillatory secretion of

adhesion molecules and ECM involved in cell-cell adhesion[2] Therefore it is suggested that glucuronic acid oscilla-tions can lead to oscillations of ECM secretion by inducingoscillatory synthesis of proteoglycan in cooperation withoscillatory secretion activity and consequently contribute toprechondrogenic condensation during chondrogenesis

34 Metabolites to Significantly Increase at Trough of ATPOscillations in Comparison with That at Peak of ATP Oscil-lations Our analysis showed that 12 cationic compoundssuch as diethanolamine glycine guanine cyclohexylamineglutamine aspartic acid 2-aminoisobutyric acid methioninesulfoxide proline threonine asparagine and hydroxypro-line and 6 anionic compounds such as phosphoribosylpy-rophosphate (PPRP) ADP dCTP UDP GMP and cGMPwere significantly increased in the trough of PACTIN-PxReoscillations (Table 2) This result suggests that intracellularlevels of these compounds oscillate in antiphase with ATPoscillations which is supported by the result that ADP wasincluded in these compounds because ADP used for ATPsynthesis should be in antiphase with ATP oscillations

PPRP which is produced from glucose via either theoxidative or nonoxidative pentose phosphate pathway is akey regulator of de novo nucleotide synthesis [27]Thereforenucleotide synthesis may oscillate in antiphase with ATPoscillations because the result that PRPPwas decreased in thepeak of ATP oscillations implies that PRPP level oscillates inantiphase with ATP oscillationsThis suggestion is supportedby the result that for glutamine glycine and aspartic acid toparticipate in nucleotide synthesis purines such as guanosinemonophosphate (GMP) cyclic GMP (cGMP) and guanine

and pyrimidines such as UDP and cCTP showed significantlyhigher level in the trough of ATP oscillations The fact thatATP is used for synthesis of PPRP and pruinepyrimidine[28] can explain the reason why PPRP and nucleotides oscil-late in antiphase toATP cGMPalso influencesCa2+ dynamicsin a number of different cell types [29] Since Ca2+ influx wasshown to mediate ATP oscillations in chondrogenesis [2 5]cGMP oscillations may be associated with ATP oscillationsvia Ca2+ influx Indeed cGMP was reported to regulate Ca2+influx in pancreatic acinar cells in growth factor-stimulatedNIH-3T3 cells [30 31] On the other hand it should be notedthat the essential amino acid threonine was also decreased inthe peak of ATP oscillations It was reported that the essentialamino acid-starved condition leads to decrease in PPRP leveland subsequent purine synthesis mainly by decreasing theactivity of nonoxidative pentose phosphate pathway [32]Thissuggests that the decreased threonine level in the peak of ATPoscillationsmay induce the decrease in PPRP and subsequentpurine level via nonoxidative pentose phosphate pathway

Proline hydroxyproline and asparagine were signifi-cantly increased in the trough of ATP oscillations It isknown that glutamine metabolism and proline metabolismare interconnected via glutamate and pyrroline-5-carboxylate[33] and asparagine are biosynthetically derived from glu-tamine and aspartic acid [34] Hydroxyproline is produced byhydroxylation of prolineTherefore the increase in glutamineand aspartic acid in the trough may lead to the increasein proline hydroxyproline and asparagine It was reportedthat hydroxyproline is a major component of collagen whichoccupies a large amount of extracellular matrix in cartilage[35] and hydroxyproline and proline play key roles for thecollagen stability [36 37]These facts indicate that oscillationsin hydroxyproline and proline play a crucial role in cartilagedevelopment by modulating expression level or structure ofcollagen during chondrogenesis

Taken together our results implicate that glycolysismitochondrial respiration and uronic acid pathway oscillatein phase with ATP oscillations while PPRP and nucleotidessynthesis pathways oscillate in antiphase with ATP oscilla-tions during chondrogenesis This suggests that the ATP-producing pathways such as glycolysis and mitochondrialrespiration oscillate in antiphase with the ATP-consumingPPRPnucleotide synthesis pathway Therefore we proposethat the antiphase synchronization of the ATP-producingand the ATP-consuming pathways can contribute to ATPoscillations during chondrogenesis (Figure 4) However ourresults cannot exclude the possibility that many other factorscan be involved in ATP oscillations

Figure 4 Schematic representation shows that the synchronizedantiphase oscillations of the oscillatory ATP-producing metabolicpathways (glycolysis and mitochondrial respiration) and ATP-consuming pathways (PPRP and nucleotide synthesis) play a keyrole in generation or maintenance of ATP oscillations during chon-drogenesis White and black boxes represent oscillatory metabolicpathways in phase with ATP and in antiphase with ATP respectivelyQuestionmarks indicate the unknown factors which are involved inATP oscillations

that the catabolic processes such as glycolysis and mito-chondrial respiration and the biosynthetic processes suchas PPRPnucleotide synthesis pathway oscillate in antiphasewith each other and thus might mediate ATP oscillationsduring chondrogenesis Further study is necessary to eluci-date what underlies oscillations of the biochemical reactionsand their integration and how the integrated biochemicalreactions contribute to cartilage development in cooperationwith ATP oscillations

transfection of ATP-dependent Phrixothrix hirtus luciferase(PxRe) reporter gene fused to a constitutiveACTINpromoter(PACTIN-PxRe) into the cells Consistent with the previousstudies [2ndash4] we found that ATP oscillations were generated2ndash4 d after chondrogenic induction (Figure 1) Since ATP isproducedmainly by glycolysis andmitochondrial respirationwe examined whether ATP oscillations depend on glycolysis

or mitochondrial respiration It was shown that both a gly-colysis inhibitor iodoacetate and a mitochondrial respirationinhibitor cyanide suppressed insulin-induced ATP oscilla-tions (Figure 1) This result indicates that ATP oscillations inchondrogenesis dependonboth glycolysis andmitochondrialrespiration

32 Heatmap for Differential Changes of Metabolites betweenPeak and Trough of ATP Oscillations To elucidate themetabolic pathways to generate ATP oscillations duringchondrogenesis the differential changes in the metabolitesbetween peak and trough of ATP oscillations were analyzedby using CE-TOF-MS analysis system When PACTIN-PxReoscillations revealed peak or trough as shown in Figure 2the metabolites were extracted from the ATDC5 cells CE-TOF-MS was used for interrogating the relative levels ofmetabolites between peaks and troughs in PACTIN-PxRe oscil-lations At molecular weights range from 500 to 100011989811991193 cationic and 109 anionic compounds were detected andanalyzed in this analysis To delineate the metabolomicalterations between peak and trough in ATP oscillations theratio of metabolite concentrations between peak and troughof PACTIN-PxRe oscillations was represented in heatmap(Figure 3) Among total compounds 15 cationic and 18anionic compounds revealed statistically significant changebetween peak and trough of PACTIN-PxRe oscillations

33 Metabolites to Significantly Increase at Peak of ATPOscillations in Comparison with That at Trough of ATPOscillations ATP showed higher concentration at the peakof PACTIN-PxRe oscillations than at the trough (Table 1)which confirmed that PACTIN-PxRe oscillations reflect ATPoscillations Besides ATP 3 cationic compounds such asO-acetylcarnitine phosphorylcholine and tyramine and11 anionic compounds such as fructose 16-bisphos-phatemalate fumaric acid 2-oxoglutaratecis-aconitic acid 13-bisphosphoglycerate 2-phosphoglycerate 3-phosphoglycer-ate NADHUDP-glucuronic acid and glucuronic acid weresignificantly increased at the peak of PACTIN-PxRe oscilla-tions (Table 1) This result suggests that intracellular levels ofthese compounds oscillate in phase with ATP oscillations

These compounds include glycolytic intermediates suchas fructose 16-bisphosphate 3-phosphoglyceric acid and 2-phosphoglyceric acid and intermediates of the tricarboxylicacid cycle (TCA cycle) such as cis-aconitic acid 2-oxoglutaricacid fumaric acid and malate This result implicates thatglycolysis and TCA cycle oscillate during ATP oscillationsPrevious studies reported the similar results that glycolyticoscillations are coupled to oscillations in mitochondrialmembrane potentials in S cerevisiae and pancreatic b-cells [17ndash19] and suggested that glycolytic oscillations drivemitochondrial oscillations [20] However the present resultthat either a glycolysis inhibitor or a mitochondrial inhibitorprevented ATP oscillations implies that glycolytic and mito-chondrial oscillations are interdependent on each other Inaddition NADH was significantly increased in the peak ofATP oscillations indicating that NADH oscillates in phasewith ATP oscillations Although it is uncertain how NADH

level stems from glycolysis or mitochondrial respirationNADH oscillations support that glycolysis or mitochondrialrespiration oscillates during ATP oscillations in chondrogen-esis

O-acetylcarnitine level was also higher in the peak ofATP oscillations which indicates that O-acetylcarnitine leveloscillates in phase with ATP oscillations L-carnitine andacetyl-CoA are converted to O-acetylcarnitine and CoAinside mitochondria by carnitine O-acetyltransferase andthe O-acetylcarnitine is transported outside the mitochon-dria where it converts back to O-carnitine and acetyl-CoA[21] It was known that cycling of acetyl-CoA through

O-acetylcarnitine plays a key role in matching instanta-neous acetyl-CoA supply with metabolic demand [22] Sinceacetyl-CoA is required for TCA cycle in mitochondria O-acetylcarnitine oscillations may contribute to mitochondrialoscillations by inducing oscillations of acetyl-CoA cyclingO-acetylcarnitine oscillations may be driven by oscillatoryactivity of carnitine O-acetyltransferase There is evidencethat suggests that carnitine O-acetyltransferase activity isnecessary for the cell cycle to proceed from the G1 phase tothe S phase [23] Therefore oscillatory activity of carnitineO-acetyltransferase may mediate prechondrogenic conden-sation by modulating cellular proliferation

In addition both uridine diphosphate (UDP)-glucuronicacid and glucuronic acid were significantly increased in thepeak of ATP oscillations UDP-glucuronic acid is the activeform of glucuronic acid for the incorporation of glucuronicacid into chondroitin sulphate [24] UDP-glucuronic acidis produced from glucose via uronic acid pathway glucose6-phosphate is isomerized to glucose 1-phosphate whichthen reacts with uridine triphosphate (UTP) to form UDPglucose in a reaction catalyzed by UDP-glucose pyrophos-phorylase and subsequently UDP glucose is oxidized byNAD-dependent UDP-glucose dehydrogenase to yield UDP-glucuronic acid [25] Therefore the uronic acid pathway ofglucose conversion to glucuronic acid may oscillate duringATP oscillations Furthermore since NADH is producedin the uronic acid pathway the oscillatory uronic acidpathway may contribute to generating NADH oscillationsduring chondrogenesis In addition glucuronic acid andUDP-glucuronic acid are used for synthesis of glycosamino-glycans [26] and the oscillatory uronic acid pathway candrive oscillatory synthesis of proteoglycans which are majorextracellular matrix (ECM) in cartilage Our previous reportdemonstrated that ATP oscillations drive oscillatory secre-tion and proposed that ATP oscillations lead to prechon-drogenic condensation by inducing oscillatory secretion of

adhesion molecules and ECM involved in cell-cell adhesion[2] Therefore it is suggested that glucuronic acid oscilla-tions can lead to oscillations of ECM secretion by inducingoscillatory synthesis of proteoglycan in cooperation withoscillatory secretion activity and consequently contribute toprechondrogenic condensation during chondrogenesis

34 Metabolites to Significantly Increase at Trough of ATPOscillations in Comparison with That at Peak of ATP Oscil-lations Our analysis showed that 12 cationic compoundssuch as diethanolamine glycine guanine cyclohexylamineglutamine aspartic acid 2-aminoisobutyric acid methioninesulfoxide proline threonine asparagine and hydroxypro-line and 6 anionic compounds such as phosphoribosylpy-rophosphate (PPRP) ADP dCTP UDP GMP and cGMPwere significantly increased in the trough of PACTIN-PxReoscillations (Table 2) This result suggests that intracellularlevels of these compounds oscillate in antiphase with ATPoscillations which is supported by the result that ADP wasincluded in these compounds because ADP used for ATPsynthesis should be in antiphase with ATP oscillations

PPRP which is produced from glucose via either theoxidative or nonoxidative pentose phosphate pathway is akey regulator of de novo nucleotide synthesis [27]Thereforenucleotide synthesis may oscillate in antiphase with ATPoscillations because the result that PRPPwas decreased in thepeak of ATP oscillations implies that PRPP level oscillates inantiphase with ATP oscillationsThis suggestion is supportedby the result that for glutamine glycine and aspartic acid toparticipate in nucleotide synthesis purines such as guanosinemonophosphate (GMP) cyclic GMP (cGMP) and guanine

and pyrimidines such as UDP and cCTP showed significantlyhigher level in the trough of ATP oscillations The fact thatATP is used for synthesis of PPRP and pruinepyrimidine[28] can explain the reason why PPRP and nucleotides oscil-late in antiphase toATP cGMPalso influencesCa2+ dynamicsin a number of different cell types [29] Since Ca2+ influx wasshown to mediate ATP oscillations in chondrogenesis [2 5]cGMP oscillations may be associated with ATP oscillationsvia Ca2+ influx Indeed cGMP was reported to regulate Ca2+influx in pancreatic acinar cells in growth factor-stimulatedNIH-3T3 cells [30 31] On the other hand it should be notedthat the essential amino acid threonine was also decreased inthe peak of ATP oscillations It was reported that the essentialamino acid-starved condition leads to decrease in PPRP leveland subsequent purine synthesis mainly by decreasing theactivity of nonoxidative pentose phosphate pathway [32]Thissuggests that the decreased threonine level in the peak of ATPoscillationsmay induce the decrease in PPRP and subsequentpurine level via nonoxidative pentose phosphate pathway

Proline hydroxyproline and asparagine were signifi-cantly increased in the trough of ATP oscillations It isknown that glutamine metabolism and proline metabolismare interconnected via glutamate and pyrroline-5-carboxylate[33] and asparagine are biosynthetically derived from glu-tamine and aspartic acid [34] Hydroxyproline is produced byhydroxylation of prolineTherefore the increase in glutamineand aspartic acid in the trough may lead to the increasein proline hydroxyproline and asparagine It was reportedthat hydroxyproline is a major component of collagen whichoccupies a large amount of extracellular matrix in cartilage[35] and hydroxyproline and proline play key roles for thecollagen stability [36 37]These facts indicate that oscillationsin hydroxyproline and proline play a crucial role in cartilagedevelopment by modulating expression level or structure ofcollagen during chondrogenesis

Taken together our results implicate that glycolysismitochondrial respiration and uronic acid pathway oscillatein phase with ATP oscillations while PPRP and nucleotidessynthesis pathways oscillate in antiphase with ATP oscilla-tions during chondrogenesis This suggests that the ATP-producing pathways such as glycolysis and mitochondrialrespiration oscillate in antiphase with the ATP-consumingPPRPnucleotide synthesis pathway Therefore we proposethat the antiphase synchronization of the ATP-producingand the ATP-consuming pathways can contribute to ATPoscillations during chondrogenesis (Figure 4) However ourresults cannot exclude the possibility that many other factorscan be involved in ATP oscillations

4 Conclusion

Although a number of previous studies on chondrogenesishave focused on regulation at gene expression level werecently found that metabolic oscillations play a key rolein prechondrogenic condensation during chondrogenesisThe present study analyzed the quantitative change of theintermediates and products of metabolism between peak andtrough of ATP oscillation in chondrogenesis and suggested

Figure 4 Schematic representation shows that the synchronizedantiphase oscillations of the oscillatory ATP-producing metabolicpathways (glycolysis and mitochondrial respiration) and ATP-consuming pathways (PPRP and nucleotide synthesis) play a keyrole in generation or maintenance of ATP oscillations during chon-drogenesis White and black boxes represent oscillatory metabolicpathways in phase with ATP and in antiphase with ATP respectivelyQuestionmarks indicate the unknown factors which are involved inATP oscillations

that the catabolic processes such as glycolysis and mito-chondrial respiration and the biosynthetic processes suchas PPRPnucleotide synthesis pathway oscillate in antiphasewith each other and thus might mediate ATP oscillationsduring chondrogenesis Further study is necessary to eluci-date what underlies oscillations of the biochemical reactionsand their integration and how the integrated biochemicalreactions contribute to cartilage development in cooperationwith ATP oscillations

Figure 1 ATP oscillations are linked with both glycolysis andmitochondrial respiration Either a glycolysis inhibitor iodoacetateor an inhibitor of mitochondrial respiration cyanide eliminatesinsulin-induced PACTIN-PxRe oscillations in ATDC5 cells Biolu-minescence monitoring of PACTIN-PxRe activity in ATDC5 cellswas performed after chondrogenic induction with the chondrogenicmedium (time = 0 h) About 24 hours after PACTIN-PxRe oscillationswere initiated ATDC5 cells were treated with iodoacetate orcyanide

transfection of ATP-dependent Phrixothrix hirtus luciferase(PxRe) reporter gene fused to a constitutiveACTINpromoter(PACTIN-PxRe) into the cells Consistent with the previousstudies [2ndash4] we found that ATP oscillations were generated2ndash4 d after chondrogenic induction (Figure 1) Since ATP isproducedmainly by glycolysis andmitochondrial respirationwe examined whether ATP oscillations depend on glycolysis

or mitochondrial respiration It was shown that both a gly-colysis inhibitor iodoacetate and a mitochondrial respirationinhibitor cyanide suppressed insulin-induced ATP oscilla-tions (Figure 1) This result indicates that ATP oscillations inchondrogenesis dependonboth glycolysis andmitochondrialrespiration

32 Heatmap for Differential Changes of Metabolites betweenPeak and Trough of ATP Oscillations To elucidate themetabolic pathways to generate ATP oscillations duringchondrogenesis the differential changes in the metabolitesbetween peak and trough of ATP oscillations were analyzedby using CE-TOF-MS analysis system When PACTIN-PxReoscillations revealed peak or trough as shown in Figure 2the metabolites were extracted from the ATDC5 cells CE-TOF-MS was used for interrogating the relative levels ofmetabolites between peaks and troughs in PACTIN-PxRe oscil-lations At molecular weights range from 500 to 100011989811991193 cationic and 109 anionic compounds were detected andanalyzed in this analysis To delineate the metabolomicalterations between peak and trough in ATP oscillations theratio of metabolite concentrations between peak and troughof PACTIN-PxRe oscillations was represented in heatmap(Figure 3) Among total compounds 15 cationic and 18anionic compounds revealed statistically significant changebetween peak and trough of PACTIN-PxRe oscillations

33 Metabolites to Significantly Increase at Peak of ATPOscillations in Comparison with That at Trough of ATPOscillations ATP showed higher concentration at the peakof PACTIN-PxRe oscillations than at the trough (Table 1)which confirmed that PACTIN-PxRe oscillations reflect ATPoscillations Besides ATP 3 cationic compounds such asO-acetylcarnitine phosphorylcholine and tyramine and11 anionic compounds such as fructose 16-bisphos-phatemalate fumaric acid 2-oxoglutaratecis-aconitic acid 13-bisphosphoglycerate 2-phosphoglycerate 3-phosphoglycer-ate NADHUDP-glucuronic acid and glucuronic acid weresignificantly increased at the peak of PACTIN-PxRe oscilla-tions (Table 1) This result suggests that intracellular levels ofthese compounds oscillate in phase with ATP oscillations

These compounds include glycolytic intermediates suchas fructose 16-bisphosphate 3-phosphoglyceric acid and 2-phosphoglyceric acid and intermediates of the tricarboxylicacid cycle (TCA cycle) such as cis-aconitic acid 2-oxoglutaricacid fumaric acid and malate This result implicates thatglycolysis and TCA cycle oscillate during ATP oscillationsPrevious studies reported the similar results that glycolyticoscillations are coupled to oscillations in mitochondrialmembrane potentials in S cerevisiae and pancreatic b-cells [17ndash19] and suggested that glycolytic oscillations drivemitochondrial oscillations [20] However the present resultthat either a glycolysis inhibitor or a mitochondrial inhibitorprevented ATP oscillations implies that glycolytic and mito-chondrial oscillations are interdependent on each other Inaddition NADH was significantly increased in the peak ofATP oscillations indicating that NADH oscillates in phasewith ATP oscillations Although it is uncertain how NADH

level stems from glycolysis or mitochondrial respirationNADH oscillations support that glycolysis or mitochondrialrespiration oscillates during ATP oscillations in chondrogen-esis

O-acetylcarnitine level was also higher in the peak ofATP oscillations which indicates that O-acetylcarnitine leveloscillates in phase with ATP oscillations L-carnitine andacetyl-CoA are converted to O-acetylcarnitine and CoAinside mitochondria by carnitine O-acetyltransferase andthe O-acetylcarnitine is transported outside the mitochon-dria where it converts back to O-carnitine and acetyl-CoA[21] It was known that cycling of acetyl-CoA through

O-acetylcarnitine plays a key role in matching instanta-neous acetyl-CoA supply with metabolic demand [22] Sinceacetyl-CoA is required for TCA cycle in mitochondria O-acetylcarnitine oscillations may contribute to mitochondrialoscillations by inducing oscillations of acetyl-CoA cyclingO-acetylcarnitine oscillations may be driven by oscillatoryactivity of carnitine O-acetyltransferase There is evidencethat suggests that carnitine O-acetyltransferase activity isnecessary for the cell cycle to proceed from the G1 phase tothe S phase [23] Therefore oscillatory activity of carnitineO-acetyltransferase may mediate prechondrogenic conden-sation by modulating cellular proliferation

In addition both uridine diphosphate (UDP)-glucuronicacid and glucuronic acid were significantly increased in thepeak of ATP oscillations UDP-glucuronic acid is the activeform of glucuronic acid for the incorporation of glucuronicacid into chondroitin sulphate [24] UDP-glucuronic acidis produced from glucose via uronic acid pathway glucose6-phosphate is isomerized to glucose 1-phosphate whichthen reacts with uridine triphosphate (UTP) to form UDPglucose in a reaction catalyzed by UDP-glucose pyrophos-phorylase and subsequently UDP glucose is oxidized byNAD-dependent UDP-glucose dehydrogenase to yield UDP-glucuronic acid [25] Therefore the uronic acid pathway ofglucose conversion to glucuronic acid may oscillate duringATP oscillations Furthermore since NADH is producedin the uronic acid pathway the oscillatory uronic acidpathway may contribute to generating NADH oscillationsduring chondrogenesis In addition glucuronic acid andUDP-glucuronic acid are used for synthesis of glycosamino-glycans [26] and the oscillatory uronic acid pathway candrive oscillatory synthesis of proteoglycans which are majorextracellular matrix (ECM) in cartilage Our previous reportdemonstrated that ATP oscillations drive oscillatory secre-tion and proposed that ATP oscillations lead to prechon-drogenic condensation by inducing oscillatory secretion of

adhesion molecules and ECM involved in cell-cell adhesion[2] Therefore it is suggested that glucuronic acid oscilla-tions can lead to oscillations of ECM secretion by inducingoscillatory synthesis of proteoglycan in cooperation withoscillatory secretion activity and consequently contribute toprechondrogenic condensation during chondrogenesis

34 Metabolites to Significantly Increase at Trough of ATPOscillations in Comparison with That at Peak of ATP Oscil-lations Our analysis showed that 12 cationic compoundssuch as diethanolamine glycine guanine cyclohexylamineglutamine aspartic acid 2-aminoisobutyric acid methioninesulfoxide proline threonine asparagine and hydroxypro-line and 6 anionic compounds such as phosphoribosylpy-rophosphate (PPRP) ADP dCTP UDP GMP and cGMPwere significantly increased in the trough of PACTIN-PxReoscillations (Table 2) This result suggests that intracellularlevels of these compounds oscillate in antiphase with ATPoscillations which is supported by the result that ADP wasincluded in these compounds because ADP used for ATPsynthesis should be in antiphase with ATP oscillations

PPRP which is produced from glucose via either theoxidative or nonoxidative pentose phosphate pathway is akey regulator of de novo nucleotide synthesis [27]Thereforenucleotide synthesis may oscillate in antiphase with ATPoscillations because the result that PRPPwas decreased in thepeak of ATP oscillations implies that PRPP level oscillates inantiphase with ATP oscillationsThis suggestion is supportedby the result that for glutamine glycine and aspartic acid toparticipate in nucleotide synthesis purines such as guanosinemonophosphate (GMP) cyclic GMP (cGMP) and guanine

and pyrimidines such as UDP and cCTP showed significantlyhigher level in the trough of ATP oscillations The fact thatATP is used for synthesis of PPRP and pruinepyrimidine[28] can explain the reason why PPRP and nucleotides oscil-late in antiphase toATP cGMPalso influencesCa2+ dynamicsin a number of different cell types [29] Since Ca2+ influx wasshown to mediate ATP oscillations in chondrogenesis [2 5]cGMP oscillations may be associated with ATP oscillationsvia Ca2+ influx Indeed cGMP was reported to regulate Ca2+influx in pancreatic acinar cells in growth factor-stimulatedNIH-3T3 cells [30 31] On the other hand it should be notedthat the essential amino acid threonine was also decreased inthe peak of ATP oscillations It was reported that the essentialamino acid-starved condition leads to decrease in PPRP leveland subsequent purine synthesis mainly by decreasing theactivity of nonoxidative pentose phosphate pathway [32]Thissuggests that the decreased threonine level in the peak of ATPoscillationsmay induce the decrease in PPRP and subsequentpurine level via nonoxidative pentose phosphate pathway

Proline hydroxyproline and asparagine were signifi-cantly increased in the trough of ATP oscillations It isknown that glutamine metabolism and proline metabolismare interconnected via glutamate and pyrroline-5-carboxylate[33] and asparagine are biosynthetically derived from glu-tamine and aspartic acid [34] Hydroxyproline is produced byhydroxylation of prolineTherefore the increase in glutamineand aspartic acid in the trough may lead to the increasein proline hydroxyproline and asparagine It was reportedthat hydroxyproline is a major component of collagen whichoccupies a large amount of extracellular matrix in cartilage[35] and hydroxyproline and proline play key roles for thecollagen stability [36 37]These facts indicate that oscillationsin hydroxyproline and proline play a crucial role in cartilagedevelopment by modulating expression level or structure ofcollagen during chondrogenesis

Taken together our results implicate that glycolysismitochondrial respiration and uronic acid pathway oscillatein phase with ATP oscillations while PPRP and nucleotidessynthesis pathways oscillate in antiphase with ATP oscilla-tions during chondrogenesis This suggests that the ATP-producing pathways such as glycolysis and mitochondrialrespiration oscillate in antiphase with the ATP-consumingPPRPnucleotide synthesis pathway Therefore we proposethat the antiphase synchronization of the ATP-producingand the ATP-consuming pathways can contribute to ATPoscillations during chondrogenesis (Figure 4) However ourresults cannot exclude the possibility that many other factorscan be involved in ATP oscillations

4 Conclusion

Although a number of previous studies on chondrogenesishave focused on regulation at gene expression level werecently found that metabolic oscillations play a key rolein prechondrogenic condensation during chondrogenesisThe present study analyzed the quantitative change of theintermediates and products of metabolism between peak andtrough of ATP oscillation in chondrogenesis and suggested

that the catabolic processes such as glycolysis and mito-chondrial respiration and the biosynthetic processes suchas PPRPnucleotide synthesis pathway oscillate in antiphasewith each other and thus might mediate ATP oscillationsduring chondrogenesis Further study is necessary to eluci-date what underlies oscillations of the biochemical reactionsand their integration and how the integrated biochemicalreactions contribute to cartilage development in cooperationwith ATP oscillations

level stems from glycolysis or mitochondrial respirationNADH oscillations support that glycolysis or mitochondrialrespiration oscillates during ATP oscillations in chondrogen-esis

O-acetylcarnitine level was also higher in the peak ofATP oscillations which indicates that O-acetylcarnitine leveloscillates in phase with ATP oscillations L-carnitine andacetyl-CoA are converted to O-acetylcarnitine and CoAinside mitochondria by carnitine O-acetyltransferase andthe O-acetylcarnitine is transported outside the mitochon-dria where it converts back to O-carnitine and acetyl-CoA[21] It was known that cycling of acetyl-CoA through

O-acetylcarnitine plays a key role in matching instanta-neous acetyl-CoA supply with metabolic demand [22] Sinceacetyl-CoA is required for TCA cycle in mitochondria O-acetylcarnitine oscillations may contribute to mitochondrialoscillations by inducing oscillations of acetyl-CoA cyclingO-acetylcarnitine oscillations may be driven by oscillatoryactivity of carnitine O-acetyltransferase There is evidencethat suggests that carnitine O-acetyltransferase activity isnecessary for the cell cycle to proceed from the G1 phase tothe S phase [23] Therefore oscillatory activity of carnitineO-acetyltransferase may mediate prechondrogenic conden-sation by modulating cellular proliferation

In addition both uridine diphosphate (UDP)-glucuronicacid and glucuronic acid were significantly increased in thepeak of ATP oscillations UDP-glucuronic acid is the activeform of glucuronic acid for the incorporation of glucuronicacid into chondroitin sulphate [24] UDP-glucuronic acidis produced from glucose via uronic acid pathway glucose6-phosphate is isomerized to glucose 1-phosphate whichthen reacts with uridine triphosphate (UTP) to form UDPglucose in a reaction catalyzed by UDP-glucose pyrophos-phorylase and subsequently UDP glucose is oxidized byNAD-dependent UDP-glucose dehydrogenase to yield UDP-glucuronic acid [25] Therefore the uronic acid pathway ofglucose conversion to glucuronic acid may oscillate duringATP oscillations Furthermore since NADH is producedin the uronic acid pathway the oscillatory uronic acidpathway may contribute to generating NADH oscillationsduring chondrogenesis In addition glucuronic acid andUDP-glucuronic acid are used for synthesis of glycosamino-glycans [26] and the oscillatory uronic acid pathway candrive oscillatory synthesis of proteoglycans which are majorextracellular matrix (ECM) in cartilage Our previous reportdemonstrated that ATP oscillations drive oscillatory secre-tion and proposed that ATP oscillations lead to prechon-drogenic condensation by inducing oscillatory secretion of

adhesion molecules and ECM involved in cell-cell adhesion[2] Therefore it is suggested that glucuronic acid oscilla-tions can lead to oscillations of ECM secretion by inducingoscillatory synthesis of proteoglycan in cooperation withoscillatory secretion activity and consequently contribute toprechondrogenic condensation during chondrogenesis

34 Metabolites to Significantly Increase at Trough of ATPOscillations in Comparison with That at Peak of ATP Oscil-lations Our analysis showed that 12 cationic compoundssuch as diethanolamine glycine guanine cyclohexylamineglutamine aspartic acid 2-aminoisobutyric acid methioninesulfoxide proline threonine asparagine and hydroxypro-line and 6 anionic compounds such as phosphoribosylpy-rophosphate (PPRP) ADP dCTP UDP GMP and cGMPwere significantly increased in the trough of PACTIN-PxReoscillations (Table 2) This result suggests that intracellularlevels of these compounds oscillate in antiphase with ATPoscillations which is supported by the result that ADP wasincluded in these compounds because ADP used for ATPsynthesis should be in antiphase with ATP oscillations

PPRP which is produced from glucose via either theoxidative or nonoxidative pentose phosphate pathway is akey regulator of de novo nucleotide synthesis [27]Thereforenucleotide synthesis may oscillate in antiphase with ATPoscillations because the result that PRPPwas decreased in thepeak of ATP oscillations implies that PRPP level oscillates inantiphase with ATP oscillationsThis suggestion is supportedby the result that for glutamine glycine and aspartic acid toparticipate in nucleotide synthesis purines such as guanosinemonophosphate (GMP) cyclic GMP (cGMP) and guanine

and pyrimidines such as UDP and cCTP showed significantlyhigher level in the trough of ATP oscillations The fact thatATP is used for synthesis of PPRP and pruinepyrimidine[28] can explain the reason why PPRP and nucleotides oscil-late in antiphase toATP cGMPalso influencesCa2+ dynamicsin a number of different cell types [29] Since Ca2+ influx wasshown to mediate ATP oscillations in chondrogenesis [2 5]cGMP oscillations may be associated with ATP oscillationsvia Ca2+ influx Indeed cGMP was reported to regulate Ca2+influx in pancreatic acinar cells in growth factor-stimulatedNIH-3T3 cells [30 31] On the other hand it should be notedthat the essential amino acid threonine was also decreased inthe peak of ATP oscillations It was reported that the essentialamino acid-starved condition leads to decrease in PPRP leveland subsequent purine synthesis mainly by decreasing theactivity of nonoxidative pentose phosphate pathway [32]Thissuggests that the decreased threonine level in the peak of ATPoscillationsmay induce the decrease in PPRP and subsequentpurine level via nonoxidative pentose phosphate pathway

Proline hydroxyproline and asparagine were signifi-cantly increased in the trough of ATP oscillations It isknown that glutamine metabolism and proline metabolismare interconnected via glutamate and pyrroline-5-carboxylate[33] and asparagine are biosynthetically derived from glu-tamine and aspartic acid [34] Hydroxyproline is produced byhydroxylation of prolineTherefore the increase in glutamineand aspartic acid in the trough may lead to the increasein proline hydroxyproline and asparagine It was reportedthat hydroxyproline is a major component of collagen whichoccupies a large amount of extracellular matrix in cartilage[35] and hydroxyproline and proline play key roles for thecollagen stability [36 37]These facts indicate that oscillationsin hydroxyproline and proline play a crucial role in cartilagedevelopment by modulating expression level or structure ofcollagen during chondrogenesis

Taken together our results implicate that glycolysismitochondrial respiration and uronic acid pathway oscillatein phase with ATP oscillations while PPRP and nucleotidessynthesis pathways oscillate in antiphase with ATP oscilla-tions during chondrogenesis This suggests that the ATP-producing pathways such as glycolysis and mitochondrialrespiration oscillate in antiphase with the ATP-consumingPPRPnucleotide synthesis pathway Therefore we proposethat the antiphase synchronization of the ATP-producingand the ATP-consuming pathways can contribute to ATPoscillations during chondrogenesis (Figure 4) However ourresults cannot exclude the possibility that many other factorscan be involved in ATP oscillations

4 Conclusion

Although a number of previous studies on chondrogenesishave focused on regulation at gene expression level werecently found that metabolic oscillations play a key rolein prechondrogenic condensation during chondrogenesisThe present study analyzed the quantitative change of theintermediates and products of metabolism between peak andtrough of ATP oscillation in chondrogenesis and suggested

adhesion molecules and ECM involved in cell-cell adhesion[2] Therefore it is suggested that glucuronic acid oscilla-tions can lead to oscillations of ECM secretion by inducingoscillatory synthesis of proteoglycan in cooperation withoscillatory secretion activity and consequently contribute toprechondrogenic condensation during chondrogenesis

34 Metabolites to Significantly Increase at Trough of ATPOscillations in Comparison with That at Peak of ATP Oscil-lations Our analysis showed that 12 cationic compoundssuch as diethanolamine glycine guanine cyclohexylamineglutamine aspartic acid 2-aminoisobutyric acid methioninesulfoxide proline threonine asparagine and hydroxypro-line and 6 anionic compounds such as phosphoribosylpy-rophosphate (PPRP) ADP dCTP UDP GMP and cGMPwere significantly increased in the trough of PACTIN-PxReoscillations (Table 2) This result suggests that intracellularlevels of these compounds oscillate in antiphase with ATPoscillations which is supported by the result that ADP wasincluded in these compounds because ADP used for ATPsynthesis should be in antiphase with ATP oscillations

PPRP which is produced from glucose via either theoxidative or nonoxidative pentose phosphate pathway is akey regulator of de novo nucleotide synthesis [27]Thereforenucleotide synthesis may oscillate in antiphase with ATPoscillations because the result that PRPPwas decreased in thepeak of ATP oscillations implies that PRPP level oscillates inantiphase with ATP oscillationsThis suggestion is supportedby the result that for glutamine glycine and aspartic acid toparticipate in nucleotide synthesis purines such as guanosinemonophosphate (GMP) cyclic GMP (cGMP) and guanine

and pyrimidines such as UDP and cCTP showed significantlyhigher level in the trough of ATP oscillations The fact thatATP is used for synthesis of PPRP and pruinepyrimidine[28] can explain the reason why PPRP and nucleotides oscil-late in antiphase toATP cGMPalso influencesCa2+ dynamicsin a number of different cell types [29] Since Ca2+ influx wasshown to mediate ATP oscillations in chondrogenesis [2 5]cGMP oscillations may be associated with ATP oscillationsvia Ca2+ influx Indeed cGMP was reported to regulate Ca2+influx in pancreatic acinar cells in growth factor-stimulatedNIH-3T3 cells [30 31] On the other hand it should be notedthat the essential amino acid threonine was also decreased inthe peak of ATP oscillations It was reported that the essentialamino acid-starved condition leads to decrease in PPRP leveland subsequent purine synthesis mainly by decreasing theactivity of nonoxidative pentose phosphate pathway [32]Thissuggests that the decreased threonine level in the peak of ATPoscillationsmay induce the decrease in PPRP and subsequentpurine level via nonoxidative pentose phosphate pathway

Proline hydroxyproline and asparagine were signifi-cantly increased in the trough of ATP oscillations It isknown that glutamine metabolism and proline metabolismare interconnected via glutamate and pyrroline-5-carboxylate[33] and asparagine are biosynthetically derived from glu-tamine and aspartic acid [34] Hydroxyproline is produced byhydroxylation of prolineTherefore the increase in glutamineand aspartic acid in the trough may lead to the increasein proline hydroxyproline and asparagine It was reportedthat hydroxyproline is a major component of collagen whichoccupies a large amount of extracellular matrix in cartilage[35] and hydroxyproline and proline play key roles for thecollagen stability [36 37]These facts indicate that oscillationsin hydroxyproline and proline play a crucial role in cartilagedevelopment by modulating expression level or structure ofcollagen during chondrogenesis

adhesion molecules and ECM involved in cell-cell adhesion[2] Therefore it is suggested that glucuronic acid oscilla-tions can lead to oscillations of ECM secretion by inducingoscillatory synthesis of proteoglycan in cooperation withoscillatory secretion activity and consequently contribute toprechondrogenic condensation during chondrogenesis

34 Metabolites to Significantly Increase at Trough of ATPOscillations in Comparison with That at Peak of ATP Oscil-lations Our analysis showed that 12 cationic compoundssuch as diethanolamine glycine guanine cyclohexylamineglutamine aspartic acid 2-aminoisobutyric acid methioninesulfoxide proline threonine asparagine and hydroxypro-line and 6 anionic compounds such as phosphoribosylpy-rophosphate (PPRP) ADP dCTP UDP GMP and cGMPwere significantly increased in the trough of PACTIN-PxReoscillations (Table 2) This result suggests that intracellularlevels of these compounds oscillate in antiphase with ATPoscillations which is supported by the result that ADP wasincluded in these compounds because ADP used for ATPsynthesis should be in antiphase with ATP oscillations

PPRP which is produced from glucose via either theoxidative or nonoxidative pentose phosphate pathway is akey regulator of de novo nucleotide synthesis [27]Thereforenucleotide synthesis may oscillate in antiphase with ATPoscillations because the result that PRPPwas decreased in thepeak of ATP oscillations implies that PRPP level oscillates inantiphase with ATP oscillationsThis suggestion is supportedby the result that for glutamine glycine and aspartic acid toparticipate in nucleotide synthesis purines such as guanosinemonophosphate (GMP) cyclic GMP (cGMP) and guanine

and pyrimidines such as UDP and cCTP showed significantlyhigher level in the trough of ATP oscillations The fact thatATP is used for synthesis of PPRP and pruinepyrimidine[28] can explain the reason why PPRP and nucleotides oscil-late in antiphase toATP cGMPalso influencesCa2+ dynamicsin a number of different cell types [29] Since Ca2+ influx wasshown to mediate ATP oscillations in chondrogenesis [2 5]cGMP oscillations may be associated with ATP oscillationsvia Ca2+ influx Indeed cGMP was reported to regulate Ca2+influx in pancreatic acinar cells in growth factor-stimulatedNIH-3T3 cells [30 31] On the other hand it should be notedthat the essential amino acid threonine was also decreased inthe peak of ATP oscillations It was reported that the essentialamino acid-starved condition leads to decrease in PPRP leveland subsequent purine synthesis mainly by decreasing theactivity of nonoxidative pentose phosphate pathway [32]Thissuggests that the decreased threonine level in the peak of ATPoscillationsmay induce the decrease in PPRP and subsequentpurine level via nonoxidative pentose phosphate pathway

Proline hydroxyproline and asparagine were signifi-cantly increased in the trough of ATP oscillations It isknown that glutamine metabolism and proline metabolismare interconnected via glutamate and pyrroline-5-carboxylate[33] and asparagine are biosynthetically derived from glu-tamine and aspartic acid [34] Hydroxyproline is produced byhydroxylation of prolineTherefore the increase in glutamineand aspartic acid in the trough may lead to the increasein proline hydroxyproline and asparagine It was reportedthat hydroxyproline is a major component of collagen whichoccupies a large amount of extracellular matrix in cartilage[35] and hydroxyproline and proline play key roles for thecollagen stability [36 37]These facts indicate that oscillationsin hydroxyproline and proline play a crucial role in cartilagedevelopment by modulating expression level or structure ofcollagen during chondrogenesis

Taken together our results implicate that glycolysismitochondrial respiration and uronic acid pathway oscillatein phase with ATP oscillations while PPRP and nucleotidessynthesis pathways oscillate in antiphase with ATP oscilla-tions during chondrogenesis This suggests that the ATP-producing pathways such as glycolysis and mitochondrialrespiration oscillate in antiphase with the ATP-consumingPPRPnucleotide synthesis pathway Therefore we proposethat the antiphase synchronization of the ATP-producingand the ATP-consuming pathways can contribute to ATPoscillations during chondrogenesis (Figure 4) However ourresults cannot exclude the possibility that many other factorscan be involved in ATP oscillations

4 Conclusion

Although a number of previous studies on chondrogenesishave focused on regulation at gene expression level werecently found that metabolic oscillations play a key rolein prechondrogenic condensation during chondrogenesisThe present study analyzed the quantitative change of theintermediates and products of metabolism between peak andtrough of ATP oscillation in chondrogenesis and suggested

Figure 4 Schematic representation shows that the synchronizedantiphase oscillations of the oscillatory ATP-producing metabolicpathways (glycolysis and mitochondrial respiration) and ATP-consuming pathways (PPRP and nucleotide synthesis) play a keyrole in generation or maintenance of ATP oscillations during chon-drogenesis White and black boxes represent oscillatory metabolicpathways in phase with ATP and in antiphase with ATP respectivelyQuestionmarks indicate the unknown factors which are involved inATP oscillations

that the catabolic processes such as glycolysis and mito-chondrial respiration and the biosynthetic processes suchas PPRPnucleotide synthesis pathway oscillate in antiphasewith each other and thus might mediate ATP oscillationsduring chondrogenesis Further study is necessary to eluci-date what underlies oscillations of the biochemical reactionsand their integration and how the integrated biochemicalreactions contribute to cartilage development in cooperationwith ATP oscillations
