This federal Project Grant award for $459,820, provided by the National Institute of Arthritis and Musculoskeletal and Skin Diseases (NIAMS) under the Arthritis, Musculoskeletal and Skin Diseases Research program (CFDA 93.846), supports research into the role of mitochondrial respiration and bioenergetic metabolism in the regulation of growth plate chondrocyte differentiation and hypertrophy. The research aims to test the hypotheses that: 1) loss of the mitochondrial transcription factor TFAM in growth plate chondrocytes delays hypertrophy by suppressing oxidative phosphorylation (OXPHOS), resulting in elevated levels of metabolites like 2-hydroxyglutarate that modulate chromatin remodeling and gene expression; and 2) augmented HIF1 activity replicates the effects of TFAM loss by delaying chondrocyte hypertrophy, reducing OXPHOS, and increasing metabolite levels. The award is held by The Trustees of the University of Pennsylvania, a leading academic research institution, and the project is scheduled to run from June 2025 to April 2030.
