Chondrocyte primary cilia shorten in response to osmotic challenge and are sites for endocytosis

Osteoarthritis and Cartilage
D R Rich, A L Clark

Abstract

The purpose of this study was to examine the influence of cartilage site and osmolarity on primary cilia incidence, length and orientation in live chondrocytes in undisturbed cartilage. Additionally, we imaged endocytotic markers to test our hypothesis that the ciliary pocket is a site for endocytosis. We measured primary cilia incidence, length and orientation in the coronal plane using ex vivo live cell confocal imaging of intact murine femoral chondrocytes. Measurements were taken from five regions of the medial and lateral condyles of the left and right femur and also after one minute of osmotic challenge. Transmission electron microscopy and immunocytochemistry were used to characterize the orientation and position of chondrocyte primary cilia in the saggital plane and to determine the colocalization of clathrin coated vesicles, endosomal and lysosomal proteins and CD44 with the ciliary pocket. Chondrocyte primary cilia length decreased significantly after a one minute hypo- or hyper-osmotic challenge and varied between condyles and across the surface of each condyle. The majority of the length of the chondrocyte primary cilia was positioned within a membranous invagination rather than projecting out from the cell membrane...Continue Reading

Adhesion Molecules in Health and Disease

Cell adhesion molecules are a subset of cell adhesion proteins located on the cell surface involved in binding with other cells or with the extracellular matrix in the process called cell adhesion. In essence, cell adhesion molecules help cells stick to each other and to their surroundings. Cell adhesion is a crucial component in maintaining tissue structure and function.
