Chondrocyte pellets were dissolved in citrate-EDTA buffer (55 mM/5 mM; pH 6.8) for 10 min at 37 °C and centrifuged at 10 K rpm for 15 s. Then, the cell pellet was washed five times with PBS and resuspended in 200 μL of SDS-NuPAGE buffer for NuPAGE gel (Invitrogen, Grand Island, NY, USA) running. Immunoblotting was performed using monoclonal antibodies against Type Ⅰ collagen, Type Ⅱ collagen (1:1000 dilution; EMD Millipore, Billerica, MA, USA), MMP-13 (Abcam, Cambridge, MA, USA) TGF-β (1:1000 mg/mL; Santa Cruz Biotechnology, Inc., Dallas, TX, USA) and PPAR-γ (Abcam, Cambridge, MA, USA). The loading control, β-actin, will be detected using anti-β-actin antibody (1:10,000 dilution; Abcam, Cambridge, MA, USA). Secondary antibodies tagged horseradish peroxidase (HRP) (rabbit for TGF-β 1:20,000 dilution and mouse for type Ⅱ collagen and β-actin, 1:5000 dilution) was used. Proteins separated in the gel and the gel were transferred to nitrocellulose membrane (GE Healthcare Life Sciences, Pittsburgh, PA, USA) using TE77XP semidry blotter with 10 V for 3 h (Hoefer, Inc., Holliston, MA, USA). Protein band signals on blots were detected on Amersham Hyperfilm which was enhanced chemiluminescence (GE Healthcare Life Sciences, Pittsburgh, PA, USA) using SuperSignal West Pico Chemiluminescent Substrate kit (Thermo Fisher Scientific, Rockford, IL, USA).

Awake or KX-anesthetized adult male C57BL/6 mice (25 g) were injected with 14C-2DG (5 µCi/mouse, bolus) into the femoral vein. All mice were fasted over night before the day of the experiment. Arterial blood samples (20 µL/sample) were collected before the injection for glucose determination and after the injection (11 samples during the experiment) for plasma radioactivity analysis. Total plasma glucose was determined using a kit (GAHK-20, Sigma). At the end of the experiments mice were decapitated and their brains were embedded in O.C.T. Tissue-Tek (Sakura). Coronal sections (20 µm) were cut using a cryostat, collected on specimen glass slides, dried and exposed to autoradiographic film (Amersham Hyperfilm, GE Healthcare, UK) for 12 days with a 14C- standard (American Radiolabeled Chemicals Inc, MO, USA). Intensity measurements of the developed films were performed using NIH ImageJ software 1.47v. Glucose utilization (µmol/100g/min) was determined as: (Cp/LC) [C*(T)-k1*A]/[B-A], where Cp is the plasma glucose concentration in mM, LC is the lump constant, C*(T)=14C-2DG in brain region at time T, k1*,k2* and k3* are the influx, efflux and phosphorylation rate constants of 14C-2DG, A=e−Kt0TC*p(t) eKtdt, B=∫0TCp*(t)dt, K=k2*–k3* (26 –28 , 49 (link), 69 (link)).
