Effect of anti-CD47/IAP, anti-TSP-1, and anti-SIRPα on mechanically induced changes in human articular chondrocyte membrane potential
| Membrane potential (-mV) (mean ± SEM) | |||||
| Sample | Reagent | Resting | Reagent alone | Reagent + 0.33 Hz | Percentage change |
| Normal chondrocytes | Nil | 25.0 ± 0.4 | - | 30.2 ± 0.6 | +21a |
| Bric 126 | 26.2 ± 0.8 | 27.2 ± 0.4 | 27.6 ± 1.2 | +2b | |
| B6H12 | 25.8 ± 2.2 | 26.3 ± 1.9 | 17.1 ± 1.0 | -35a | |
| Osteoarthritic chondrocytes | Nil | 30.0 ± 1.9 | - | 17.4 ± 1.3 | -42a |
| Bric 126 | 28.0 ± 1.6 | 28.0 ± 2.1 | 27.4 ± 1.8 | -2b | |
| Anti-TSP-1 | 29.6 ± 1.2 | 29.0 ± 0.8 | 29.8 ± 1.6 | +3b | |

Membrane potentials of chondrocytes were measured at rest in the absence or presence of the appropriate antibody and after 20 minutes of mechanical stimulation at 0.33 Hz. Bric 126 is a function-blocking anti-CD47/IAP antibody. B6H12 is an anti-CD47/IAP antibody that has partial agonist activity. SE5A5 is an anti-SIRPα antibody. N = 5. ap < 0.001; bnot significant. IAP, integrin-associated protein; SEM, standard error of the mean; SIRPα, signal-regulatory protein-alpha; TSP-1, thrombospondin-1.
