A role for il-17a in the suppression of spinal entheseal mesenchymal stem cell adipogenesis whilst simultaneously facilitating osteogenesis.
ANNALS OF THE RHEUMATIC DISEASES(2020)
Abstract
Background: Fat formation in the bone adjacent to the enthesis is an important but poorly characterised intermediate stage in new bone formation that occurs in the spine in AS. We and others have previously reported that IL-17A can increase mesenchymal stem cell (MSC) mediated osteogenesis in normal and AS spinal tissue (1, 2). Objectives: Herein we investigate the impact of IL-17A \u0026 TNF on MSC adipogenesis from spinal enthesis tissue. Methods: Samples from healthy spinous process and interspinous ligament (n=14, median age = 53) were separated into the peri-entheseal bone (PEB) and entheseal soft tissue (EST) \u0026 enzymatically digested. Minimally passaged ( Results: EST MSCs have a significantly higher adipogenic potential than matched PEB MSCs (n=14, p Conclusion: Given the inverse link between MSC mediated osteogeneis \u0026 adipogenesis, these findings reveal a role of IL-17A especially on EST MSCs. The rapid formation of adipocytes seen in EST MSCs may be relevant to MRI determined peri-entheseal bone “shiny corners” due to post inflammation fat accumulation. Elevated transcripts associated with pre-adipocytes \u0026 undifferentiated MSCs support the idea of plasticity between early osteogenesis \u0026 adipogenesis. Downregulation of transcripts for proteins associated with protection against lipolysis allows for the rationalising of the gradual loss of the shiny corners seen in AS preceding subsequent new bone formation.
