It is known that Wnt/β-catenin signaling induces endochondral ossification and plays a significant role in the pathophysiology of osteoarthritis (OA). Sclerostin is a potent inhibitor of the Wnt/β-catenin signaling pathway. This study investigated the role of sclerostin in the endochondral differentiation under an OA-like condition induced by proinflammatory cytokines. ATDC5 cells were used to investigate chondrogenic differentiation and terminal calcification, and 10 ng/ml IL-1β and/or 200 ng/ml sclerostin were added to the culture medium. IL-1β impaired early chondrogenesis from undifferentiated state into proliferative chondrocytes, and it was not altered by sclerostin. IL-1β induced progression of chondrogenic differentiation in the late stage and promoted terminal calcification. These processes were inhibited by sclerostin and chondrogenic phenotype was restored. In addition, sclerostin restored IL-1β-induced upregulation of Wnt/β-catenin signaling in the late stage. This study provides insights into the possible role of sclerostin in the chondrogenic differentiation under the IL-1β-induced OA-like environment. Suppression of Wnt signaling by an antagonist may play a key role in the maintenance of articular homeostasis and has a potential to prevent the progression of OA. Thus, sclerostin is a candidate treatment option for OA. |
