Abstract

We performed comparative proteome analysis of mesenchymal cells and chondrocytes to identify proteins differentially expressed during chondrogenesis. Nine such proteins were identified. Type II collagen, matrilin-1, carbonic anhydrase-II (CA-II), 3′-phosphoadenosine 5′-phosphosulfate (PAPS) synthetase-2, and aldo-keto reductase were increased during chondrogenesis, whereas cellular retinoic acid binding protein-I (CRABP-I), CRABP-II, cytoplasmic type 5 actin, and fatty acid binding protein were decreased or almost disappeared. Expression of type II collagen, matrilin-1, PAPS synthetase-2, and CA-II was regulated by extracellular signal-regulated protein kinase, protein kinase C, and p38 kinase, signaling molecules known to regulate chondrogenesis.
