Cartilage-Specific Autophagy Deficiency Promotes ER Stress and Impairs Chondrogenesis in PERK-ATF4-CHOP–Dependent Manner

Abstract: Autophagy is activated during nutritionally depleted or hypoxic conditions to facilitate cell survival. Because growth plate is an avascular and hypoxic tissue, autophagy may have a crucial role during chondrogenesis; however, the functional role and underlying mechanism of autophagy in regulation of growth plate remains elusive. In this study, we generated Atg7 (Atg7cKO) mice to explore the role of autophagy during endochondral ossification. Atg7cKO mice exhibited growth retardation associated with reduced ch… Show more

“…As such, the lack of trabecular bone may suggest that Beclin1 plays a key role not only in osteoclasts but also in chodrocytes at hypertropic growth plate region chondrocytes . Indeed, ATG is known to play a critical role in the growth plate . Therefore, this seemingly paradoxical bone phenotype of our Beclin1 cKO mice is based on the strong expression of CtsK in both osteoclasts and chondrocytes at their late stages of differentiation, such that increased cortical bone thickness is caused by the inhibitory effects of beclin1 KO in osteoclasts, whereas decreased trabecular bone amounts may be caused by the inhibitory effects of beclin1 KO in chondrocytes.…”

“…ATF4 transcriptionally regulates Atg12, and ATF4‐mediated C/EBP‐homologous protein (CHOP) activation also transcriptionally induces Atg5. Atg5, Atg12, and Atg16L form Atg5‐Atg12‐ Atg16L complex, which involves the elongation process (B'chir et al, ; Kang et al, ).…”

“…Typically, autophagy promotes cell survival by removing pathogenic proteins, dysfunctional organelles, and intracellular pathogens that cause various diseases to maintain intracellular homeostasis. A number of researchers revealed that autophagy promotes differentiation and maturation of chondrocytes, as well as inhibits the apoptosis of growth-plate chondrocytes in the absence of nutrients (14)(15)(16)(17).…”
