| Title | GSK-3α and GSK-3β proteins are involved in early stages of chondrocyte differentiation with functional redundancy through RelA protein phosphorylation. |

| Abstract |
Here we examine the roles of two isoforms of glycogen synthase kinase-3 (GSK-3), GSK-3α and GSK-3β, in skeletal development. Both isoforms were unphosphorylated and active in chondrocyte differentiation stages during SOX9 and type II collagen (COL2A1) expression. Although knock-out of both alleles of Gsk3a (Gsk3a(-/-)) or a single allele of Gsk3b (Gsk3b(+/-)) in mice did not significantly affect skeletal development, compound knock-out (Gsk3a(-/-);Gsk3b(+/-)) caused dwarfism with impairment of chondrocyte differentiation. GSK-3α and GSK-3β induced differentiation of cultured chondrocytes with functional redundancy in a cell-autonomous fashion, independently of the Wnt/β-catenin signal. Computational predictions followed by SOX9 and COL2A1 transcriptional assays identified RelA (NF-κB p65) as a key phosphorylation target of GSK-3. Among several phosphorylation residues in RelA, Thr-254 was identified as the critical phosphorylation site for GSK-3 that modulated chondrocyte differentiation. In conclusion, redundant functions of GSK-3α and GSK-3β through phosphorylation of RelA at Thr-254 play a crucial role in early stages of chondrocyte differentiation. |
