Abstract (original English)

This study tested the hypothesis that mitogen-activated protein kinase inhibitors suppress hypertrophy and enhance chondrogenesis during chondrogenesis of multipotent mesenchymal stromal cells (MSCs). The effects of PD98059 (an extracellular signal-regulated kinase-1/2 inhibitor) and SB203580 (a p38 inhibitor) were tested on bone marrow-derived MSCs (BMMSCs) and adipose tissue-derived MSCs (ATMSCs). In vitro pellet cultures were carried out using 2.5 x 10(5) MSCs in a chondrogenic medium containing 5 ng/mL of transforming growth factor-beta(2) (TGF-beta(2)) for BMMSCs, and 5 ng/mL of TGF-beta(2) and 100 ng/mL of bone morphogenetic protein-7 (BMP-7) for ATMSCs. From the 14th day of culture, the pellets were additionally treated with PD98059 or SB203580. After 14 more days of in vitro culture, pellets were harvested for analysis. PD98059 increased DNA content and glycosaminoglycan amount in BMMSCs and ATMSCs, whereas SB203580 had little effect. Collagen type I (COL1A1) mRNA decreased to almost a quarter in BMMSCs treated with PD98059. The mRNA levels of collagen type II (COL2A1) and SRY (sex determining region Y)-box 9 (SOX-9) increased several fold in both cells after PD98059 treatment, whereas SB203580 had only a slight effect. The gene expression of collagen type X (COL10A1) and runt-related transcription factor 2 (Runx-2) decreased by half after PD98059 treatment in BMMSCs, a

What this study does not prove
