Methods
Adsorption of growth factors to osteoblast-secreted ECMs
- Recombinant human TGF-β1 and BMP-2 were reconstituted to a final concentration of 1 mg/ml in PBS containing bovine serum albumin (BSA) as a carrier.
- The growth factors were fluorescently labeled using the Dylight 488 labeling kit as described by the manufacturer.
- Briefly, the growth factors were incubated with the fluorescent dye for 1 h at room temperature.
- The unincorporated dye was removed by passing the mix through a desalting spin column.
- The labeled growth factors were diluted in PBS to obtain a range of concentrations from 0 to 200 ng/ml.
- ECMs prepared as described above were incubated overnight at 4°C with 200 µl of PBS containing either TGF-β1 or BMP-2 at different concentrations.
- After 24 h, the growth factor solution was collected, ECMs were rinsed twice with PBS to remove unbound growth factor, and the distribution of bound protein on ECMs was imaged using a Nikon Eclipse TE2000-U fluorescent microscope.

Chondrogenic Differentiation
- sfMPCs were plated in triplicate (100,000 cells/well/24 well dish) and exposed to chondrogenic media for 14 days with or without micro-mass aggregation.
- Aggregation was achieved by placing 100,000 cells in a 1.5 ml sterile tube at 37°C overnight.
- Differentiation media consisted of sMPC culture media with 500 ng/mL BMP-2 , 10 ng/mL TGF-β3 , 10−8 M dexamethasone , 50 µg/mL ascorbic acid , 40 µg/mL proline , 100 µg/mL pyruvate and supplemented with insulin, transferrin, and selenium .

Chromatin immunoprecipitation (ChIP)
- ChIP was performed using the EZ-ChIP kit.
- The isolated calvaria cells were differentiated by treatment with 150 ng/ml rhBMP-2 for 2 days and harvested for analysis.
- Immunoprecipitations were carried out using the mouse anti-FLAG antibody and primers for analysis were designed to amplify the osteocalcin binding element; forward primer
5′-CTGAACTGGGCAAATGAGGACA-3′ , reverse primer5′-AGGGGATGCTGCCAGGACTAAT-3′ .
Micromass Mesodermal Cultures
- The effect of BMP modulators and BMP2 were analyzed by adding recombinant protein to the medium in 24 hr cultures.
- Treatments were maintained for another 24 hr period.
- After testing different protein concentrations we selected the following: human recombinant BMP2 200 ngr/ml ; human recombinant NOGGIN, 200 ngr/ml ; human recombinant CHL-1, 2400 ngr/ml ; mouse recombinant CHL-2 1200 ngr/ml ; human recombinant TSG 1000 ngr/ml ; mouse recombinant AN 3000 ngr/ml ; Follistatin 800 ngr/ml .
- After these treatments we analyzed by Q-PCR changes in the expression of cartilage markers (
Sox9 ,2 ; andBmpr1b ), fibrogenic markers (, 1 and), and joint markers ( Activinβα ,Gdf5 , and). - The selected genes are well known markers of the corresponding morpho-developmental processes.

Jaws has not been used very often as joint marker, but it has been shown that it is essential for the formation of interphalangeal joints
