Abstract
Osteoarthritis (OA) is a degenerative joint disease that affects millions globally. The present nonsteroidal anti-inflammatory drug treatments have different side effects, leading researchers to focus on natural anti-inflammatory products (NAIPs). To review the effectiveness and mechanisms of NAIPs in the cellular microenvironment, examining their impact on OA cell phenotype and organelles levels. Additionally, we summarize relevant research on drug delivery systems and clinical randomized controlled trials (RCTs), to promote clinical studies and explore natural product delivery options. English-language articles were searched on PubMed using the search terms "natural products," "OA," and so forth. We categorized search results based on PubChem and excluded "natural products" which are mix of ingredients or compounds without the structure message. Then further review was separately conducted for molecular mechanisms, drug delivery systems, and RCTs later. At present, it cannot be considered that NAIPs can thoroughly prevent or cure OA. Further high-quality studies on the anti-inflammatory mechanism and drug delivery systems of NAIPs are needed, to determine the appropriate drug types and regimens for clinical application, and to explore the combined effects of different NAIPs to prevent and treat OA.

Abstract
Articular cartilage repair is a sophisticated process that has is being recently investigated. There are several different approaches that are currently reported to promote cartilage repair, like cell-based therapies, biologics, and physical therapy. Cell-based therapies involve the using stem cells or chondrocytes, which make up cartilage, to promote the growth of new cartilage. Biologics, like growth factors, are also being applied to enhance cartilage repair. Physical therapy, like exercise and weight-bearing activities, can also be used to promote cartilage repair by inducing new cartilage growth and improving joint function. Additionally, surgical options like osteochondral autograft, autologous chondrocyte implantation, microfracture, and others are also reported for cartilage regeneration. In the current literature review, we aim to provide an up-to-date discussion about these approaches and discuss the current research status.

Abstract
Articular cartilage is an avascular tissue, with limited ability to repair and self-renew. Defects in articular cartilage can induce debilitating degenerative joint diseases such as osteoarthritis. Currently, clinical treatments have limited ability to repair, for they often result in the formation of mechanically inferior cartilage. In this review, we discuss the factors that affect cartilage homeostasis and function, and describe the emerging regenerative approaches that are informing the future treatment options.

Abstract
BACKGROUND AND AIMS NASH is becoming a leading cause of liver cirrhosis and HCC. Salidroside (p-hydroxyphenethyl-β-D-glucoside; SAL) has various biological and pharmacological activities, including anti-inflammatory, -oxidant, and -cancer activities. However, the therapeutic effect and underlying molecular mechanism of SAL in NASH remain to be further clarified. METHODS AND RESULTS In this study, we found that SAL alleviated lipid accumulation and inflammatory response in primary hepatocytes after palmitic acid/oleic acid (PO) stimulation. In addition, SAL effectively prevented high-fat/high-cholesterol (HFHC)-diet-induced NASH progression by regulating glucose metabolism dysregulation, insulin resistance, lipid accumulation, inflammation, and fibrosis. Mechanistically, integrated RNA-sequencing and bioinformatic analysis showed that SAL promoted AMPK-signaling pathway activation in vitro and in vivo, and this finding was further verified by determining the phosphorylation levels of AMPK. Furthermore, the protective effects of SAL on lipid accumulation and inflammation in hepatocytes and livers induced by PO or HFHC stimulation were blocked by AMPK interruption. CONCLUSIONS Our studies demonstrate that SAL protects against metabolic-stress-induced NASH progression through activation of AMPK signaling, indicating that SAL could be a potential drug component for NASH therapy.

Abstract
OBJECTIVES To investigate the protective effects of Salidroside (Sal) on AP cell model induced by taurolithocholic acid 3-sulfate (TLC-S) as well as its underlying mechanism. METHODS AR42J cells were divided into normal group (N group), AP cell model group (Mod group), Sal treated alone group (S+N group) and Sal treated AP cell model group (S+Mod group). The cell viability was examined by CCK-8 assay. Secretion of lipase and trypsin by AR42J cells, quantified using commercial assay kits, was used as the markers of TLC-S-induced pancreatitis. The levels of TNF-α, IL-1β, IL-8, IL-6 and IL-10 in the cell supernatant were measured by ELISA. The effect of Sal on molecules in the NF-κB signaling pathway and autophagy was investigated by qRT-PCR and western blot. RESULTS The decreased cell viability in Mod group was increased by Sal (P < 0.01). The upheaved activities of lipase and trypsin in AP cell model were declined by Sal (P < 0.01). The levels of TNF-α, IL-1β, IL-8 and IL-6 in the cell supernatant, Beclin-1 and LC3-Ⅱ mRNA and protein, p-p65/p65 protein, which were increased in AP cell model, were decreased by Sal; and IL-10 in the cell supernatant, LAMP2 mRNA and protein, p-IκBα/IκBα protein which was declined in AP cell model, was increased by Sal (P < 0.05 or 0.01). There were no significant differences in all indexes between the N and S+N groups (P > 0.05). CONCLUSIONS Sal alleviated AR42J cells injury induced by TLC-S, inhibited the inflammatory responses and modulated the autophagy, mainly through inhibiting the NF-κB signaling pathway.

Intraarticular Administration Effect of Hydrogen Sulfide on an In Vivo Rat Model of Osteoarthritis. Int J Mol Sci 2020; 21:ijms21197421.

Abstract
Osteoarthritis (OA) is the most common articular chronic disease. However, its current treatment is limited and mostly symptomatic. Hydrogen sulfide (H2S) is an endogenous gas with recognized physiological activities. The purpose here was to evaluate the effects of the intraarticular administration of a slow-releasing H2S compound (GYY-4137) on an OA experimental model. OA was induced in Wistar rats by the transection of medial collateral ligament and the removal of the medial meniscus of the left joint. The animals were randomized into three groups: non-treated and intraarticularly injected with saline or GYY-4137. Joint destabilization induced articular thickening (≈5% increment), the loss of joint mobility and flexion (≈12-degree angle), and increased levels of pain (≈1.5 points on a scale of 0 to 3). Animals treated with GYY-4137 presented improved motor function of the joint, as well as lower pain levels (≈75% recovery). We also observed that cartilage deterioration was attenuated in the GYY-4137 group (≈30% compared with the saline group). Likewise, these animals showed a reduced presence of pro-inflammatory mediators (cyclooxygenase-2, inducible nitric oxide synthase, and metalloproteinase-13) and lower oxidative damage in the cartilage. The increment of the nuclear factor-erythroid 2-related factor 2 (Nrf-2) levels and Nrf-2-regulated gene expression (≈30%) in the GYY-4137 group seem to be underlying its chondroprotective effects. Our results suggest the beneficial impact of the intraarticular administration of H2S on experimental OA, showing a reduced cartilage destruction and oxidative damage, and supporting the use of slow H2S-producing molecules as a complementary treatment in OA.

Abstract
ETHNOPHARMACOLOGICAL RELEVANCE The genus Rhodiola has been used to treat cough, hemoptysis, fever, pain, bruise and other symptoms which are related to injury and inflammation over a thousand years in traditional Tibetan medicine. Salidroside (p-hydroxyphenethyl-β-D-glucoside) is one of the most potent bioactive ingredients of the genus Rhodiola. AIM OF STUDY The present study aimed to explore whether salidroside could alleviate the clinical symptom and sign in the early acute stage of osteoarthritis (OA) in monosodium iodoacetate (MIA) rat model, and its underlying mechanisms. MATERIALS AND METHODS Osteoarthritis (OA) was induced in rat knees by intra-articular injection of MIA; simultaneously salidroside was administered by intravenous injection. Pain behaviors were evaluated by knee-bend test, hind limb weight-bearing asymmetry and hind paw mechanical withdrawal threshold. The joint swelling was determined by the difference of knee joint diameter. Inflammatory exudates in synovial fluid were evaluated by leukocyte counting and protein content. Cytokines, chemokines, reactive oxygen species (ROS) and reactive nitrogen species (RNS) markers were determined by Enzyme-linked immunosorbent assay (ELISA) and colorimetric assay in synovial fluid. Pro-inflammatory gene expressions in synovial tissue were detected by quantitative real time RT-PCR (qRT-PCR). Nuclear factor kappa-B (NF-κB) DNA binding assay and western blot were used to determine NF-κB activation and ROS marker protein expression in synovial tissue. Glycosaminoglycan (GAG) content in the cartilage was measured by dimethylmethylene blue method. Hematoxylin and eosin (H&E), Safranin O-fast green and a modified Mankin grading system were used to evaluate the histology of articular cartilage. RESULTS Salidroside could alleviate pain and joint swelling in the early acute stage of OA in rat model, reduced the number of leukocytes, total protein content, proinflammatory mediators and ROS/RNS markers in synovial fluid, down regulated the expression of proinflammatory genes in synovium, inhibited the activation of NF- κ B and oxidative stress response in synovium, promoted the synthesis of cartilage GAG, prevented the loss of proteoglycan and chondrocyte degeneration. CONCLUSIONS Salidroside effectively alleviates acute symptom and sign of OA in rat model by its anti-inflammatory and antioxidant affects to inhibit synovial inflammation, which provides a new strategy to prevent the onset and progression of OA.

Abstract
The application of tissue engineering to generate cartilage is limited because of low proliferative ability and unstable phenotype of chondrocytes. The sources of cartilage seed cells are mainly chondrocytes and stem cells. A variety of methods have been used to obtain large numbers of chondrocytes, including increasing chondrocyte proliferation and stem cell chondrogenic differentiation via cytokines, genes, and proteins. Natural or synthetic small molecule compounds can provide a simple and effective method to promote chondrocyte proliferation, maintain a stable chondrocyte phenotype, and promote stem cell chondrogenic differentiation. Therefore, the study of small molecule compounds is of great importance for cartilage tissue engineering. Herein, we review a series of small molecule compounds and their mechanisms that can promote chondrocyte proliferation, maintain chondrocyte phenotype, or induce stem cell chondrogenesis. The studies in this field represent significant contributions to the research in cartilage tissue engineering and regenerative medicine.

Abstract
The aim of present study was to evaluate the potential effects of Rhodiola crenulata oral liquid (RCOL) on exhaustive exercise (EE)-induced fatigue in mice. Male Institute of Cancer Research mice from five treatment groups (n=10 per group) were orally administered with sterilized water for the Control and EE groups and/or RCOL at doses of 1.02, 3.03 and 6.06 ml/kg/day, once daily for 2 weeks. Anti-fatigue activity was subsequently evaluated by measuring the levels of creatine kinase (CK), lactic acid (LA), lactate dehydrogenase (LDH), malondialdehyde (MDA), superoxide dismutase (SOD), catalase (CAT) and total anti-oxidative capability (T-AOC). Histopathology was assessed using hematoxylin and eosin staining. Ultrastructures of mitochondria were observed by transmission electron microscopy. Energy supply capacity was assessed using citrate synthase (CS), succinate dehydrogenase (SDH), Na+-K+-ATPase, and liver and quadriceps glycogen content assays. Expression levels of mRNA and protein associated with mitophagy in the skeletal muscle were measured by reverse transcription-quantitative PCR and western blotting, respectively. RCOL was observed to markedly inhibit fatigue-induced oxidative stress by increasing the activities of SOD, CAT and T-AOC, whilst reducing the accumulation of LA, CK, LDH and MDA. Histological analysis of the quadriceps femoris tissue suggested increased numbers of muscle fibers in the RCOL groups compared with those in the EE group. RCOL administration was found to reverse EE-induced mitochondrial structural damage and alleviated defects inflicted onto the energy supply mechanism by increasing CS, SDH, Na+-K+-ATPase and glycogen levels. Additionally, RCOL reduced the protein expression of PTEN-induced kinase 1 (PINK1), Parkin, microtubule-associated proteins 1A/1B light chain 3, sequestosome 1 and ubiquitin, whilst lowering the gene expression of PINK1 and Parkin. Taken together, results from the present study clarified the anti-fatigue effect of RCOL, where the underlying mechanism may be associated with increased antioxidant activity, enhanced energy production and the inhibition of mitophagy by suppressing the PINK1/Parkin signaling pathway.

Gao H, Peng L, Li C, Ji Q, Li P. Salidroside Alleviates Cartilage Degeneration Through NF-κB Pathway in Osteoarthritis Rats. DRUG DESIGN DEVELOPMENT AND THERAPY 2020; 14:1445-1454. [PMID: 32341638 PMCID: PMC7166061 DOI: 10.2147/dddt.s242862] [Citation(s) in RCA: 14] [Impact Index Per Article: 3.5] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Key Words] [Track Full Text] [Download PDF] [Figures] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 12/18/2019] [Accepted: 02/20/2020] [Indexed: 12/13/2022]
Abstract
Introduction Osteoarthritis (OA) is the most common disease, which seriously affects the daily life of the elderly. Currently, no traditional or drug therapy has been shown to explicitly block the progression of OA. Salidroside (Sal) is a bioactive component of Rhodiola rosea, which has many beneficial effects on human health. However, the role and mechanism of Sal in OA have not been reported. Methods We established an anterior cruciate ligament transection (ACLT)-induced OA Rat model. The rats were divided into five groups (n = 10): Control group; ACLT group; ACLT + Sal (12.5 mg/kg) group; ACLT + Sal (25 mg/kg) group; ACLT + Sal (50 mg/kg) group. Results The study showed that Sal could significantly promote the proliferation of chondrocytes in OA rats induced by ACLT and restore the histological alteration of cartilage. Besides, Sal upregulated the levels of Collagen II and Aggrecan, and downregulated the level of MMP-13. Furthermore, Sal could reduce the number of CD4+IL-17+ cells and decrease the levels of IL-17, IKBα and p65, while elevating the number of CD4+IL-10+ cells and the level of IL-10. The decrease of IL-17 further inhibited the dissociation of IKBα to p65, thus reducing the release of TNF-α and VCAM-1. Taken together, Sal alleviates cartilage degeneration through promoting chondrocytes proliferation, inhibiting collagen fibrosis, and regulating inflammation and immune responses via NF-κB pathway in ACLT-induced OA Rats. Discussion Collectively, our study investigates the role and mechanism of Sal in OA, which lays a foundation for the application of Sal in OA.

Effect of balneotherapy in sulfurous water on an in vivo murine model of osteoarthritis. INTERNATIONAL JOURNAL OF BIOMETEOROLOGY 2020; 64:307-318.

Abstract
Osteoarthritis (OA) is a chronic joint disease that results in progressive cartilage destruction and subsequently joint dysfunction. Growing evidence indicates beneficial impact of balneological interventions in OA; however, their mechanisms of action are still unclear. Here, we evaluate the effect of balneotherapy in sulfurous water in an OA experimental model. Experimental OA was induced in Wistar rats by transection of the medial collateral ligament and removal of the medial meniscus of the left knee. Animals were randomized into three groups: non-treated (control) and balneotherapy using sulfurous water (SW) or tap water (TW). Macroscopic evaluation was performed, as well as evaluation of pain levels and analysis of motor function by rotarod test. Histopathological changes in articular cartilage and synovium were also evaluated. The presence of matrix metalloproteinase-13 (MMP-13) and oxidative damage markers was assessed by immunohistochemistry. Joint destabilization induced joint thickening, loss of joint flexion, and increased levels of pain. At day 40, animals from SW group presented lower pain levels than those from control group. Experimental OA also affected motor function. Balneotherapy in sulfur-rich water significantly improved joint mobility in relation to that in tap water. Besides, we observed that cartilage deterioration was lower in SW group than in the other two groups. Likewise, SW group showed reduced levels of MMP-13 in the cartilage. Conversely, we failed to observe any modulation on synovial inflammation. Finally, balneotherapy in sulfurous water diminished the presence of oxidative damage markers. Our results suggest the beneficial effect of balneotherapy in sulfur-rich water on an experimental model of OA, showing a reduced cartilage destruction and oxidative damage. Thus, these findings support the use of balneotherapy as a non-pharmacological treatment in OA.

Biomed Pharmacother 2019; 122:109388. [PMID: 31919041 DOI: 10.1016/j.biopha.2019.109388] [Citation(s) in RCA: 9] [Impact Index Per Article: 1.8] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Key Words] [Track Full Text] [Journal Information] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 04/09/2019] [Revised: 08/11/2019] [Accepted: 08/22/2019] [Indexed: 01/27/2023] Open
Abstract
Autologous chondrocyte implantation (ACI) is commonly used for the treatment of cartilage defects. Since the cell number for transplantation is limited, the expand culture of chondrocytes in vitro is needed. However, the phenotype of chondrocytes is easy to lose in monolayer cultured in vitro. Traditional growth factors such as transformation growth factor -β1 (TGF-β1) have been used for promoting the proliferation and maintained the phenotype of chondrocytes, but the high cost and functional heterogeneity limit their clinical application. It is of significant to develop substitutes that can accelerate proliferation and prevent dedifferentiation of chondrocytes for further study. In our present study, the effect of salidroside on proliferation and phenotype maintenance of chondrocytes and cartilage repair was investigated by performing the cell viability, morphology, glycosaminoglycan (GAG) synthesis, cartilage relative genes expression, macroscopic and histological analyzsis. The TGF-β/smad3 signal which may involve in the protective effect of salidroside on chondrocytes was also detected by ELISA and qRT-PCR assays. The results indicated that salidroside could promote chondrocytes proliferation and enhance synthesis of cartilage extracellular matrix (ECM). Expression of collagen type I was significantly down-regulated which suggesting that salidroside could prevent chondrocytes from dedifferentiation. The in vivo experiments for cartilage repair also indicated that in the treatment of salidroside, chondrocytes used for ACI significantly accelerated the hyaline cartilage repair. While in the absence of salidroside, the repaired cartilage is mainly the fibrous cartilage. Additional experiments demonstrated that salidroside promotes the proliferation and maintain the phenotype of chondrocytes by activate the TGF-β/smad3 signal. Salidroside may be a potential agent for ACI to promote the proliferation and maintain the phenotype of chondrocytes expansion in vitro.

EBioMedicine 2019; 50:395-407. [PMID: 31735552 PMCID: PMC6921217 DOI: 10.1016/j.ebiom.2019.10.054] [Citation(s) in RCA: 26] [Impact Index Per Article: 5.2] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Key Words] [Track Full Text] [Download PDF] [Figures] [Journal Information] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 08/08/2019] [Revised: 10/16/2019] [Accepted: 10/28/2019] [Indexed: 01/10/2023] Open
Abstract
Background Epigenetic mechanisms have been reported to play key roles in osteoarthritis (OA) development. P300/CBP-associated factor (PCAF) is a member of the histone acetyltransferases, which exhibits a strong relationship with endoplasmic reticulum (ER) stress and transcription factor nuclear factor kappa B (NF-κB) signals. Salidroside, a natural histone acetylation inhibitor, showed its anti-inflammatory and anti-apoptotic effects in lipopolysaccharide (LPS)-stimulated microglia cells in our previous study. However, whether Sal has a protective effect against OA remains unknown, and its relationships to PCAF, NF-κB, and the ER stress pathway should be explored further. Methods We identified the role of PCAF in the pathogenesis of OA and determined the chondroprotective effect of Sal on both tumor necrosis factor alpha (TNF-α)-treated human chondrocytes and a destabilized medial meniscus (DMM) mouse OA model. Findings We found increased PCAF expression in human OA cartilage and TNF-α-driven chondrocytes. Meanwhile, silencing of PCAF attenuated nuclear p65 and C/EBP homologous protein levels in chondrocytes upon TNF-α stimulation. Furthermore, Sal was found to specifically bind to the inhibitory site of the PCAF protein structure, which subsequently reversed the TNF-α-induced activation of NF-κB signal and ER stress-related apoptosis in chondrocytes. In addition, the protective effect of Sal and its inhibitory effects on PCAF as well as inflammatory- and ER stress-related markers were also observed in the mouse DMM model. Interpretation Pharmacological blockade of PCAF by Sal ameliorates OA development via inhibition of inflammation and ER stress, which makes Sal a promising therapeutic agents for the treatment of OA.
