GSE148159: inflammatory response to IL-1b in WT, LDHA KO, NAMPT KO, NFKBIZ KO and FX11 treated chondrocytes

Our goal is to study the impacts of IL-1b treatment on chondrocyte physiology. Furthermore, we knocked out several genes that we believe are important for modulating the inflammatory response. We find that IL-1b treatment induces metabolic reprogramming towards aerobic glycoylsis. We found that inhibition of LDHA using inbhitiro FX11 inhibited the inflammatory response of chondrocytes. We hypothesized that this effect was mediated by interaction with NADH, leading to regulation of IkB-z protein. Thus, deletion of LDHA, NAMPT or NFKBIZ was performed and found to inhibit inflammatory response genes induced by IL-1b, with similar gene expression changes amongst the three suggesting that they may work in the same pathway.
