Expression of FSHR in chondrocytes and the effect of FSH on chondrocytes.

Abstract:

OBJECTIVE:Chondrocytes express many kinds of hormone receptors. The function of Follicle stimulating hormone (FSH) in the ovary is mediated by FSH receptor (FSHR). FSH receptor (FSHR) is found in many non-ovarian tissues, however it has been unclear if chondrocytes express FSHR. The purpose of this study is to determine it. METHODS:Mouse primary chondrocytes and human articular cartilage tissues were examined. The expression and sequence of FSHR mRNA by reverse transcription polymerase chain reaction (RT-PCR) and sequenced, respectively, and its protein expression was tested using western blotting and location was observed under immunofluorescence microscopy. Ovarian tissue was as a positive control. After FSH stimulated mouse chondrocytes, intracellular cAMP levels were assessed by ELISA, and gene expression relative to Mouse WNT Signaling Pathway was tested by RT2 Profiler PCR Arrays. RESULTS:FSHR was detected at the transcriptional level and confirmed to have the same sequence as that of ovary-derived mRNA of FSHR. FSHR proteins presented at the same line as the positive proteins of ovary, in mouse chondrocytes and human cartilage tissue, respectively. FSHR proteins were located at the cell membrane. Intracellular cAMP contents were significantly elevated up to 7-fold in mouse chondrocytes by forskolin (100 mM) (P < 0.001); however, different doses of FSH did not change the cAMP contents in mouse primary chondrocytes. RT2 Profiler PCR Arrays demonstrated that FSH could cause changes in gene expression among the 84 preordained genes, such as Fosl1, Rhou, and Dkk1, in mouse chondrocytes relative to the control. CONCLUSION:Mouse chondrocytes and human articular cartilage express functional FSHR. Moreover, FSH can act on chondrocytes and cause genetic changes.
