COMPOSITION
• Extracellular matrix and sparse cells
• No blood vessel, lymphatic vessel and nerve
• limit response to any metabolic response
• Frictionless
CHONDROCTYE
• Endoplasmic reticulum and Golgi apparatus (matrix synthesis)
• Intracytoplasmic filament, lipid, glycogen, secretary vesicles (maintenance of matrix structure)
CHONDROCYTE: DIFFERENT BY LAYERS
• Surface layer: elongated and resemble fibroblasts
• Transitional layer: round and actively for chemistry
• Deeper layer: cells in radial pattern
• Tidemark: non-functional cells
CHONDROCYTE: FUNCTION
• NOT participate in water distribution
• Maintenance and structural competence
• Producing and replacing appropriate macromolecules (degradation, mechanical demand placed on the surface, synthesizing)
• Assembling as an highly
ordered framework
EXTRACELLULAR MATRIX (ECM)
• 2 components
1. Tissue fluid
2. Framework of structural macromolecule
• Interaction -> stiffness and resilience
ECM
• Water 80% by weight
• Gel forming = lubrication system
• Large aggregation of Proteoglycans (maintain fluid within the matrix and e’lyte concentration)
STRUCTURAL MACROMOLECULES
• Collagens• Proteoglycans• Noncollagenous
proteins
20-40% wet wt.
Collagen60%
Proteoglycan25%
Glycoprotein15%
COLLAGEN
• 60% of dry weight of cartilage
• Collagen-rich superficial zone
• Types: II*, VI, IX, X and XI
• Type II, IX and XI form the cross-band fibrils
TIGHT MESHWORKCollagen fibrils organization
Tensile stiffness & cartilage strength
Large proteoglycans entrapment
Cohesiveness of tissue
TYPE VI COLLAGEN
• Forms an important part of surrounding chondrocytes
• Helps chondrocyte attach to matrix
TYPE IX COLLAGEN
• Bind covalently to superficial layers of cross-banded
fibrils
• Project into the matrix to bind with other Type IX Collagen and Proteoglycans
Have GAG-> Proteoglycan?
TYPE X COLLAGEN
• Found only near cartilage calcified zone and hypertrophic zone of growth plate (start to mineralize)
• Cartilage mineralization
TYPE XI COLLAGEN
• Bind covalently to Type II
• May form part of interior structure of cross-banded fibrils
PROTEOGLYCANS
• A protein core & Glycosaminoglycans (GAG) chains (unbranched polysaccharide)
• GAG: Hyaluronic acid, chondroitin sulfate, glucosamine sulfate, dermatan sulfate
AGGRECANS
• Mostly fill in the interfibrillar space of matrix• 90% of Pg mass• Noncovalently bind with HA & monomer• Help anchor Pg in the matrix, prevent
displacement during deformation, organize and stabilize Pg & collagen
BIGLYCAN & FIBROMODULIN
• Two dermatan sulfate chains
• Several dermatan sulfate chains
Biglycan
Fibromodulin
ARTICULARPROTEOGLYCAN
Aggrecans*(large)
DecorinBiglycan
Fibromodulin(small)
Transforming growth factor β
- Healing+ Degradative enzymes
HYALURONIC ACID
• Backbone for matrix aggregation• Bind aggrecans non-covalently and link proteins• This aggregation helps anchor Pg within the
matrix• Prevent displacement during deformation • Stabilize relationships of Pg and collagen
meshwork
NONCOLLAGENOUS PROTEINS & GLYCOPROTEINS
• Stabilize the matrix framework
• Help chondrocytes bind to the macromolecules of matrix
• Anchorin CII collagen-binding chondrocytes surface protein (anchor)
• Cartilage oligomeric protein (COMP) is in chondrocyte territorial matrix, have capacity to bind to chondrocyte
SUPERFICIAL ZONE
• Thinnest zone• Two sub layers:
– sheet of fine fibrils (acellular)– flattened ellipsoid-shape chondrocyte +
fibroblast
• Collagen is lying parallel to the joint surface (resist compressive force)-> OA
• High collagen, low Pg• “cartilage skin”
TRANSITIONAL ZONE
• Large volume
• cells: synthetic organelles (ER, Golgi)
spheroidal shape
• Lower collagen & water concentration
• Higher Pg concentration
MIDDLE(RADIAL/DEEP) ZONE
• Chondrocytes align in columns perpendicular to the joint surface (resist shear stress)
• Largest diameter collagen• Highest Pg• Lowest water• Collagen fibers pass into the tidemark
CALCIFIED CARTILAGE ZONE
• Thin calcified cartilage
• “calcific sepulchers”
• Extremely low level of metabolic activity
• No nutrients traverse this zone
MATRIX REGIONS
• Pericellular
• Territorial
• Interterritorial >>>
• Bind cell membranes to matrix macromolecules
• Protect deformation force• Transmit mechanical
signals to chondrocytes
• Provide the mechanical properties of tissue
CHONDROCYTE-MATRIX INTERACTIONS
• Matrix protects chondrocytes from mechanical damage and maintain shape and phenotype
• Matrix : metabolic products/cytokines and growth factors
• Insulin-dependent growth factor I (IGF-I) & Transforming growth factor β (TGF β) + matrix synthesis & cell proliferation
BIOMECHANICS
• Wide range of static & dynamic mechanical loads
• Compressive, tensile & shear forces
α composition & structure of ECM
Tension Compression Shear
CARTILAGE REGENERATION
Static compression
Reversibly inhibit cartilage matrix
synthesis
Cyclical compressive
Stimulate aggrecan core protein &
protein synthesis
DEGENERATION AND OSTEOARTHRITIS
• Osteoarthritis >> degenerative joint disease, degenerative arthritis, hypertrophic arthritis
OA: 3 OVERLAPPING PROCESSES
1. Cartilage matrix damage
2. Chondrocyte response to tissue damage
3. Decline of the chondrocyte synthetic response
STAGE 1 MATRIX DAMAGE
Water
Aggrecan & GAG length
Permeability
& Matrix stiffness
Other causes: inflammation, tissue’s metabolicchanges that interferes matrix maintenance
STAGE 2 CHONDROCYTE RESPONSE
• Chondrocytes detect tissue damage
Anabolic & mitogenic growth factors
chondrocyte proliferation & ECM+
Catabolic enzymes (proteases)
Reversible- Spontaneous- Intervention
STAGE 3 DECLINE CELL SYNTHESIS
• Failure to restore the tissue
• Progressive loss of cartilage
• Down regulation of chondrocyte response to anabolic cytokine
JOINT INJURY &POSTTRAUMATIC OA
• Ligament reconstruction (ex. ACL-R) can restore mechanical stability but not greatly reduce the risk for OA development because….
The initial traumatic event may have irreversible effects on the joint tissues and residents cells
