OBJECTIVE: Tibial dyschondroplasia (TD) is an abnormality of growth plate cartilage characterized by the presence of non-vascularized, non-mineralized tissue. The objective of this study was to examine structural and functional alterations of the growth plate-specific type X collagen in TD cartilage.
DESIGN: Collagen biosynthesis was examined in organ cultures and in cultured chondrocytes from normal growth plate and TD cartilage. Thermal stability of type X collagen extracted from normal and TD cartilage organ cultures to protease digestions by trypsin plus chymotrypsin or bacterial collagenase was determined. The expression of collagen genes was examined in cultured normal and TD chondrocytes.
RESULTS: Synthesis of total collagen and of type X collagen was greater than threefold higher in organ cultures from the TD lesion compared with normal growth plate. The increase in type X collagen synthesis in the lesion was compensated by a reduction in the relative proportions of types II and XI collagens. The thermal denaturation and collagenase cleavage properties of purified types II and X collagens from TD cartilage were normal. The expression of type X collagen gene was threefold higher in cultured TD chondrocytes compared to chondrocytes from normal growth plate. Normal growth plate chondrocytes in primary cultures synthesized predominantly type X collagen (80% of total collagen). In contrast, TD chondrocytes synthesized mainly types I and II collagens and type X collagen represented only 22% of total collagen. TD cells initiated the synthesis of type I collagen within 5 days of primary culture, whereas normal chondrocytes did not synthesize this collagen during the same culture period. Although type X collagen synthesis was reduced in TD chondrocytes, the mRNA levels for type X collagen were substantially higher than in normal chondrocytes.
CONCLUSION: Accumulation of type X collagen in TD cartilage results from its increased biosynthesis which is due largely to increased expression of the gene for this collagen, although, the chondrocyte culture studies suggest the possibility of postranscriptional defect in type X collagen synthesis or processing in TD lesion. Moreover, the TD chondrocytes in contrast with normal chondrocytes display evidence of prompt loss of their specific phenotype during short-term primary cultures.
