Regulatory elements driving the expression of skeletal lineage reporters differ during bone development and adulthood.
Bone 2017 December
To improve bone healing or regeneration more insight in the fate and role of the different skeletal cell types is required. Mouse models for fate mapping and lineage tracing of skeletal cells, using stage-specific promoters, have advanced our understanding of bone development, a process that is largely recapitulated during bone repair. However, validation of these models is often only performed during development, whereas proof of the activity and specificity of the used promoters during the bone regenerative process is limited. Here, we show that the regulatory elements of the 6kb collagen type II promoter are not adequate to drive gene expression during bone repair. Similarly, the 2.3kb promoter of collagen type I lacks activity in adult mice, but the 3.2kb promoter is suitable. Furthermore, Cre-mediated fate mapping allows the visualization of progeny, but this label retention may hinder to distinguish these cells from ones with active expression of the marker at later time points. Together, our results show that the lineage-specific regulatory elements driving gene expression during bone development differ from those required later in life and during bone repair, and justify validation of lineage-specific cell tracing and gene silencing strategies during fracture healing and bone regenerative applications.
