Abstrakt: Pannexin 3 (Panx3) is a glycoprotein that forms mechanosensitive channels expressed in chondrocytes and annulus fibrosus cells of the intervertebral disc (IVD). Evidence suggests Panx3 plays contrasting roles in traumatic versus aging osteoarthritis (OA) and intervertebral disc degeneration (IDD). However, whether its deletion influences the response of joint tissue to forced use is unknown. The purpose of this study was to determine if Panx3 deletion in mice causes increased knee joint OA and IDD after forced treadmill running. Male and female wildtype (WT) and Panx3 knockout (KO) mice were randomized to either a no-exercise group (sedentary; SED) or daily forced treadmill running (forced exercise; FEX) from 24 to 30 weeks of age. Knee cartilage and IVD histopathology were evaluated by histology, while tibial secondary ossification centers were analyzed using microcomputed tomography (µCT). Both male and female Panx3 KO mice developed larger superficial defects of the tibial cartilage after forced treadmill running compared with SED WT mice. Additionally, Panx3 KO mice developed reduced bone volume, and female PANX3 KO mice had lengthening of the lateral tubercle at the intercondylar eminence. In the lower lumbar spine, both male and female Panx3 KO mice developed histopathological features of IDD after running compared to SED WT mice. These findings suggest that the combination of deleting Panx3 and forced treadmill running induces OA and causes histopathological changes associated with the degeneration of the IVDs in mice.
