  • PRO-APOPTOTIC EFFECT OF RETINOIC ACID ON CHONDROCYTE THROUGH REGULATION ON GENE EXPRESSIONOF IGF-2

    【Abstract】 Objective To investigate the effect of retinoic acid (RA) on cell apoptosis and gene regulation of IGF-2in chondrocyte. Methods One 1-month-old Chinese rabbit weighted 500 g was used in this experiment. The chondrocyte from rabbit knee were cultured by enzyme digestion. Twenty-five μL all-trans-retinoic acid (ATRA) (1×10-6 mol/L) were added in the media of cultured chondrocyte for 24 hours as experimental group, while 25 μL DMEM were added as control group. The secretion of collagen Ⅱ was observed by immunohistochemistry method, cell apoptosis was detected by flow cytometry, IGF-2 mRNA and protein expression in chondrocyte were detected by RT-PCR and Western blot analysis. Results The expression of collagen Ⅱ was down-regulated by ATRA in the experimental group. The cell apoptosis in chondrocyte exposed to ATRA at 1 ×10-6 mol/L was 21% ± 2%, which increased 5 times compared with the control group(5% ± 1%). The IGF-2 mRNA and protein level in the experimental group were decreased 75% and 57%, respectively, compared to the control group. There weresignificant difference between the experimental group and control group in each index (P lt; 0.05). Conclusion RA may down-regulate the secretion and cell prol iferation, but up-regulate the cell apoptosis in chondrocyte. The apoptotic effect may carry out through inhibiting the IGF-2 expression of chondrocyte.
