Abstract
Treatment of rheumatoid arthritis (RA) is aimed at long-term remission and inhibition of joint destruction by different biologic drugs. However, the choice of a particular biologic agent based on individual cases of RA remains unestablished. Interleukin-6 (IL-6) inhibitor and tumor necrosis factor (TNF) inhibitor are common biologics used for the treatment of RA. This study aimed to investigate predictive factors for effective selection of tocilizumab (IL-6 inhibitor) and etanercept (TNF inhibitor) in patients with RA. This is a retrospective cohort study. The 196 patients analyzed in this study were divided into four groups: tocilizumab treatment as the first biologic group (TCZ first, 42 patients), tocilizumab as second/ third biologic group (TCZ second, 34 patients), etanercept as the first biologic group (ETN first, 103 patients) and etanercept as second/third group (ETN second, 17 patients). Visual analog scale (VAS), clinical disease activity index (CDAI), and modified health assessment questionnaire (mHAQ) scores at the initiation of biologic treatment and after 6 months of tocilizumab and etanercept therapy were measured and compared to clinical parameters and radiographical parameters among the four groups. CRP, MMP-3, VAS, CDAI, and HAQ were improved after 6 months of treatment in all groups. Improvement of clinical outcomes was correlated with CRP value, duration of RA, and Sharp scores at the initiation of treatment. Multivariate analysis demonstrated improvement in CDAI was significantly associated with the yearly progression of erosion according to the Sharp score in TCZ first group (OR, 1.5; 95% CI, 1.03–2.07) and was negatively associated with the duration of RA (OR, 0.49; 95% CI, 0.29–0.86) at the initiation of treatment with ETN first group. We identified the predictive factors for effective selection of tocilizumab and etanercept treatment and established the effectiveness of tocilizumab for the patients with rapid progressive joint erosion and etanercept for the early administration from diagnosis of RA.

Abstract
The host-guest interaction as noncovalent bonds can make polymeric materials tough and flexible based on the reversibility property, which is a promising approach to extend the lifetime of polymeric materials. Supramolecular materials with cyclodextrin and adamantane are prepared by mixing host polymers and guest polymers by planetary ball milling. The toughness of the supramolecular materials prepared by ball milling is approximately 2 to 5 times higher than that of supramolecular materials prepared by casting, which is the conventional method. The materials maintain their mechanical properties during repeated ball milling treatments. They are also applicable as self-healable bulk materials and coatings, and they retain the transparency of the substrate. Moreover, fractured pieces of the materials can be re-adhered within 10 min. Dynamic mechanical analysis, thermal property measurements, small-angle X-ray scattering, and microscopy observations reveal these behaviors in detail. Scars formed on the coating disappear within a few seconds at 60 °C. At the same time, the coating shows scratch resistance due to its good mechanical properties. The ball milling method mixes the host polymer and guest polymer at the nano level to achieve the self-healing and recycling properties.

Abstract
Eicosapentanoic acid (EPA) is an antioxidant and omega-3 polyunsaturated fatty acid that reduces inflammatory cytokine production. Gelatin hydrogel can be used as a carrier of a physiologically active substance that release it gradually for an average of ~3 weeks. Therefore, this study aimed to clarify the effect of EPA-incorporating gelatin hydrogels on osteoarthritis (OA) progression in vivo. Ten-week-old male C57BL/6J mice were randomly divided into six groups (n = 6): Sham, destabilization of the medial meniscus (DMM), Corn: DMM + 2 µL corn oil, EPA injection alone (EPA-I): DMM + 2 µL corn oil + 125 μg/μL EPA, Gel: DMM + gelatin hydrogels, and EPA-G: DMM + 125 μg/μL EPA-incorporating gelatin hydrogels. The mice were euthanized at 8 weeks after DMM or Sham surgery, and subjected to histological evaluation. Matrix-metalloproteinases-3 (MMP-3), MMP-13, interleukin-1β (IL-1β), p-IKK α/β, CD86, and CD163 protein expression in the synovial cartilage was detected by immunohistochemical staining. F4/80 expression was also assessed using the F4/80 score of macrophage. Histological score was significantly lower in EPA-G than in EPA-I. MMP-3-, MMP-13-, IL-1β-, and p-IKK α/β-positive cell ratio was significantly lower in EPA-G than in EPA-I. However, CD86- and CD163-positive cell ratio was not significantly different between EPA-I and EPA-G. The average-sum F4/80 score of macrophage in EPA-G was significantly lower than that in EPA-I. EPA-incorporating gelatin hydrogels were shown to prevent OA progression in vivo more effectively than EPA injection alone. Our results suggested that intra-articular administration of controlled-release EPA can be a new therapeutic approach for treating OA.

Abstract
Hydrogels are biocompatible polymer networks; however, they have the disadvantage of having poor mechanical properties. Herein, the mechanical properties of host-guest hydrogels were increased by adding a filler and incorporating other noncovalent interactions. Cellulose was added as a filler to the hydrogels to afford a composite. Citric acid-modified cellulose (CAC) with many carboxyl groups was used instead of conventional cellulose. The preparation began with mixing an acrylamide-based αCD host polymer (p-αCD) and a dodecanoic acid guest polymer (p-AADA) to form supramolecular hydrogels (p-αCD/p-AADA). However, when CAC was directly added to p-αCD/p-AADA to form biocomposite hydrogels (p-αCD/p-AADA/CAC), it showed weaker mechanical properties than p-αCD/p-AADA itself. This was caused by the strong intramolecular hydrogen bonding (H-bonding) within the CAC, which prevented the CAC reinforcing p-αCD/p-AADA in p-αCD/p-AADA/CAC. Then, calcium chloride solution (CaCl2) was used to form calcium ion (Ca2+) complexes between the CAC and p-αCD/p-AADA. This approach successfully created supramolecular biocomposite hydrogels assisted by Ca2+ complexes (p-αCD/p-AADA/CAC/Ca2+) with improved mechanical properties relative to p-αCD/p-AADA hydrogels; the toughness was increased 6-fold, from 1 to 6 MJ/m3. The mechanical properties were improved because of the disruption of the intramolecular H-bonding within the CAC by Ca2+ and subsequent complex formation between the carboxyl groups of CAC and p-AADA. This mechanism is a new approach for improving the mechanical properties of hydrogels that can be broadly applied as biomaterials.

Abstract
This study observed anterior coverage extent after lateral rotation of the acetabulum, without anterior or posterior rotation, during curved periacetabular osteotomy by three-dimensional simulation, and determined if preoperative pelvic morphology affects postoperative anterior coverage and range of motion. Thirty patients scheduled for consecutive primary curved periacetabular osteotomy for developmental hip dysplasia at our hospital between 2016 and 2017 were included. Virtual acetabular osteotomies were performed to achieve a postoperative lateral center-edge angle of 30°. We measured anterior center-edge angles before curved periacetabular osteotomy through the medial one-third and one-quarter of the femoral head as an index reflecting the pelvic morphology medial to the femoral head center. The range of motion simulation was performed after virtual curved periacetabular osteotomy. Single linear regression analysis was performed to examine correlations between preoperative pelvic morphology parameters and anterior center-edge angles after virtual osteotomy. Furthermore, linear regression analysis was used to assess correlations between center-edge angles and simulated range of motions (P < .05). Anterior center-edge angle after virtual osteotomy was more strongly correlated with the anterior center-edge angle through the medial one-third (r = .92, P < .0001) and one-quarter (r = .84, P < .0001) of the femoral head. Flexion angle and internal rotation at 90° flexion showed significant correlations with anterior center-edge angle through the medial one-third (r = -.62, P = .0003; r = -.57, P = .001) and one-quarter (r = -.60, P = .0005; r = -.55, P = .002) of the femoral head and anterior center-edge angle after virtual osteotomy (r = -.67, P = .0005; r = -.62, P = .0003). Measuring preoperative parameters reflecting pelvic morphology enables surgeons to predict postoperative anterior coverage and range of motion in curved periacetabular osteotomy cases.

Abstract
Many essential cellular processes are regulated by mechanical properties of their microenvironment. Here, we introduce stimuli-responsive composite scaffolds fabricated by three-dimensional (3D) laser lithography to simultaneously stretch large numbers of single cells in tailored 3D microenvironments. The key material is a stimuli-responsive photoresist containing cross-links formed by noncovalent, directional interactions between β-cyclodextrin (host) and adamantane (guest). This allows reversible actuation under physiological conditions by application of soluble competitive guests. Cells adhering in these scaffolds build up initial traction forces of ~80 nN. After application of an equibiaxial stretch of up to 25%, cells remodel their actin cytoskeleton, double their traction forces, and equilibrate at a new dynamic set point within 30 min. When the stretch is released, traction forces gradually decrease until the initial set point is retrieved. Pharmacological inhibition or knockout of nonmuscle myosin 2A prevents these adjustments, suggesting that cellular tensional homeostasis strongly depends on functional myosin motors.

Abstract
Background:Many blood vessels are generated in the hyperplastic synovial tissue of patients with rheumatoid arthritis (RA), and lead to chronic tissue inflammation and joint destruction [1]. Janus kinase (JAK) family consisting of JAK1, JAK2, JAK3 and tyrosine kinase 2 (TYK2) are chain receptors which phosphorylate signal transducers and activators of transcription (STAT) and mediate inflammatory diseases including RA [2]. Nowadays, several JAK inhibitors such as Tofacitinib (TOF), Baricitinib (BAR) and Peficitinib (PEF) have been developed and demonstrated to have the inhibitory effects on inflammatory arthritis [3-5]. However, there were few reports concerning their effects on angiogenesis in vitro.Objectives:The purpose of the present study is to investigate the influence of JAK inhibitors on angiogenesis of human umbilical vein endothelial cell (HUVEC) activated by vascular endothelial growth factor (VEGF).Methods:The cell line of HUVECs were used for this study. The activity of proliferation and tube formation were analyzed by counting assay and tube formation assay, respectively.In counting assay, HUVECs (5 × 104cells/ml) were seeded onto 96-well cell culture plate with 20 ng/ml VEGF including various doses (0.1µM, 1µM, 5µM) of TOF, BAR or PEF. After 48 hours incubation at 37°C in a humidified atmosphere containing 5% CO2, cell proliferation of each groups was assessed using cell counting kit. In tube formation assay, HUVECs (5 × 104cells/ml) were treated with 20ng/ml VEGF including various dose (0.1µM, 1µM, 5µM) of TOF, BAR or PEF for 00 hours, then seeded onto 48-well plate applied with Matrigel. After 24 hours incubation on Matrigel, the capillary-like tube formation of each well was photographed using phase contrast microscopy. Tube formation were quantitated by measurement of the length of branch.Results:HUVECs were activated in proliferation and tube formation by VEGF treatment. And, the proliferation and tube formation of HUVECs activated by VEGF were suppressed by All of TOF, BAR and PEF. In particular, TOF and PEF could suppress them highly.Conclusion:This study showed the inhibitory effect of JAK inhibitors on proliferation and tube formation of HUVECs activated by VEGF. In particular, the angiogenesis of HUVECs activated by VEGF was highly suppressed by TOF and PEF. VEGF is reported to regulate the angiogenesis through multi JAK-STAT signaling pathways [6]. The inhibitory effects on angiogenesis of TOF, BAR and PEF might depend on the differences in their affinity for JAKs. VEGF has been shown to a have a central involvement in the angiogenic process in RA [7]. JAK inhibitors might suppress the angiogenesis in RA synovial tissues by inhibiting VEGF signaling.References:[1]Scott DL, et al. Rheumatoid arthritis. Lancet. 2010.[2]Banerjee S, et al.

Abstract
Background:Rheumatoid arthritis (RA) is a chronic inflammatory disease characterized by hyperplasia of synovial tissues [1]. Tumor necrosis factor (TNF)-α is one of the pro-inflammatory cytokines that play a crucial role in the pathogenesis of RA synovitis, and TNF inhibitors (TNFi) were reported to force the RA to go into remission or low disease activity and have brought revolutionary impacts on RA treatment [2]. TNFi have been shown to act on inflammatory cells and form the discoid fibrosis in the sublining layers [3,4]. However, the changes of synovial tissue and the cause of discoid fibrosis in RA patients treated with TNFi has not been determined in detail.Objectives:The purpose of this study is to demonstrate the histological changes and the types of cells around discoid fibrosis in RA synovium treated with TNFi.Methods:Synovial tissues were obtained from 30 patients with RA during joint surgeries. 6 patients were treated with TNFi (1 patient with golimumab, 3 patients with etanercept, 2 patients with infliximab). As a control, synovial tissues were obtained from 6 patients who were treated only with csDMARDs (6 patients with MTX). The frozen sections were stained by hematoxylin and eosin (HE). To detect the apoptosis, TdT-mediated dUTP nick end labeling (TUNEL) was performed. The immunohistochemical characterization of the synovial cells was performed by using following antibodies: CD20 and CD3 for detecting B and T lymphocytes respectively, CD163 and CD86 for detecting M1 and M2 macrophage respectively.Results:In the sections stained with HE, the formation of discoid fibrosis and the other characteristic changes including hydropic degeneration, vacuolation, sclerosis of small vasculature, and the number of multilayered synovial cells was decreased in synovium from RA patients treated with TNFi. In the sections with TUNEL stain, apoptosis of lining cells around the discoid fibrosis was detected in RA synovium treated with TNFi (Figure 1a, 1b). In the sections with immunohistochemistry stain, CD86 expression increased in lining layer of RA synovium treated with TNFi. CD163 positive cells showed diffuse expression in RA synovium treated with TNFi. In contrast, CD20 and CD3 positive cells decreased around discoid fibrosis compared to control sections. These results showed indicated that the types of cells in lining and sublining layers were mainly macrophages and that the apoptosis of macrophages might form the discoid fibrosis in lining layers.Conclusion:This study showed the apoptosis of lining cells derived from macrophages resulted in the formation of the discoid fibrosis. These findings indicated TNFi might induce apoptosis of macrophage leading to the suppression of RA synovitis.References:[1] Scott Dl, et al.

Abstract
BACKGROUND Differences in measurement outcomes using different tensors in total knee arthroplasty (TKA) remain unknown. This study aimed to compare intraoperative soft tissue balance between two measurement systems in TKA. METHODS This study included 24 cruciate-retaining (CR) and 27 posterior-stabilized (PS) TKAs for varus-type osteoarthritis. All TKAs were performed with the measured resection technique. Intraoperative soft tissue balance was assessed with femoral component placement and patellofemoral joint reduction throughout the range of motion. Measurements were performed using the Offset Repo-Tensor (Zimmer) and Ligament Sensor Tensor (Depuy). Joint component gaps and varus/valgus ligament balance were compared statistically in CR and PS TKAs. RESULTS Joint component gaps with the Offset Repo-Tensor were significantly larger at 0°, 10°, 30°, and 60° of knee flexion in CR TKA and at all knee flexion angles, except 0° and 135°, in PS TKA than those with the Ligament Sensor Tensor (P < .05). Varus balance with the Offset Repo-Tensor was significantly larger at 0°, 10°, and 30° of knee flexion in CR TKA and at 10°, 30°, 60°, 90°, and 120° of knee flexion in PS TKA than that with the Ligament Sensor Tensor (P < .05). CONCLUSION Surgeons should consider the discrepancy in assessing intraoperative soft tissue balance depending on the tensor used. The Ligament Sensor Tensor tended to underestimate soft tissue balance in CR and PS TKAs compared with the Offset Repo-Tensor, especially in PS TKA. Thus, surgeons should know the difference in values between the offset-type tensor with consistent distraction force and a spring-loaded tensor.

Abstract
The introduction of non-covalent bonds is effective for achieving self-healing properties because they can be controlled reversibly. One approach to introduce these bonds into supramolecular materials is use of host-guest interactions. This feature article summarizes the development of supramolecular materials constructed by non-covalent cross-linking through several approaches, such as host-guest interactions between host polymers and guest polymers, 1 : 2-type host-guest interactions, and host-guest interactions from the polymerization of host-guest inclusion complexes. Host-guest interactions show self-healing functions while also enabling stimuli-responsiveness (redox, pH, and temperature). The self-healing function of supramolecular materials is achieved by stress dispersion arising from host-guest interactions when stress is applied. Reversible bonds based on host-guest interactions have tremendous potential to expand the variety of functional materials.

Abstract
Stimuli-responsive hydrogels have attracted attention as soft actuators that act similarly to muscles. In this work, hydrogel actuators controlled by host–guest interactions have been developed. The introduction of a 1:1 inclusion complex into a hydrogel is a popular design for achieving a change in cross-linking density. To realize faster and larger deformation properties, the introduction of a 1:2 inclusion complex is effective because the alteration in cross-linking density in a hydrogel with 1:2 complexes is larger than that in a hydrogel with 1:1 complexes. A redox-responsive hydrogel actuator cross-linked with 1:2 inclusion complexes is designed, where γ-cyclodextrin (γCD) and viologens modified with an alkyl chain derivative (VC11) were employed as the host and guest units, respectively. γCD includes two VC11 molecules in its cavity. The obtained γCD–VC11 hydrogel cross-linked with the 1:2 complex showed faster and larger deformation behaviour than the αCD–VC11 and the βCD–VC11 hydrogels cross-linked with a 1:1 complex. The deformation ratio and response speed of the γCD–VC11 hydrogel, which forms a supramolecular cross-linking structure by stimuli, are 3 and 11 times larger, respectively, than those of our previous hydrogel consisting of a βCD/ferrocene 1:1 inclusion complex. A hydrogel actuator with a 1:2 host–guest complex controlled by redox stimuli has been developed to realize faster and larger deformation.![]()

Abstract
The role of uncultured adipose-derived stromal cells for osteoarthritis treatment remains unclear despite sporadic reports supporting their use in clinical settings. This study aimed to evaluate the therapeutic effects of autologous uncultured adipose-derived stromal cell transplantation in a rabbit osteoarthritis model. Uncultured adipose-derived stromal cells isolated from rabbits were administered via intra-articular injection into the knees after osteoarthritis onset. Animals were sacrificed at 8 and 12 weeks after osteoarthritis onset to compare the macroscopic, histological, and immunohistochemical characteristics between the uncultured adipose-derived stromal cell and control groups. Co-culture assay was also performed. The chondrocytes isolated from the model were co-cultured with adipose-derived stromal cells. The cell viability of chondrocytes and expression of chondrocyte-specific genes in the co-culture (uncultured adipose-derived stromal cell) group were compared with the mono-culture (control; chondrocytes only) group. In macroscopic and histological analyses, the uncultured adipose-derived stromal cell group showed less damage to the cartilage surface than the control group at 8 and 12 weeks after osteoarthritis onset. In immunohistochemical and co-culture assay, the uncultured adipose-derived stromal cell group showed higher expression of collagen type II and SRY box-9 and lower expression of matrix metalloproteinase-13 than the control group. The cell viability of chondrocytes in the uncultured adipose-derived stromal cell group was higher than that in the control group. Intra-articular autologous uncultured adipose-derived stromal cell transplantation inhibited the progression of cartilage degeneration in a rabbit osteoarthritis model by regulating chondrocyte viability and secreting chondrocyte-protecting cytokines or growth factors, which promote anabolic factors and inhibit catabolic factors. © 2018 Orthopaedic Research Society.

Abstract
Supramolecular materials have received considerable attention due to their higher fracture energy and self-recovery capability compared to conventional chemically cross-linked materials. Herein, we focus on the mechanical properties and self-recovery behaviours of supramolecular polymeric elastomers swollen with ionic liquid. We also gained insight into the correlation between ionic liquid content and mechanical properties. These supramolecular polymers with ionic liquid can be easily prepared from bulk copolymerization of the host–guest complex (peracetylated cyclodextrin and adamantane derivatives) and alkyl acrylates and subsequent immersion in ionic liquid such as 1-ethyl-3-methylimidazolium bis(trifluoromethylsulfonyl)imide. The supramolecular polymeric elastomers showed a self-recovery ability, which the conventional chemically cross-linked elastomers with ionic liquid cannot achieve. Supramolecular ionic liquid elastomers showed higher fracture energy than chemically cross-linked ionic liquid elastomers and also self-recovery ability.![]()
