Abstract
Osteoarthritis (OA), a chronic degenerative joint disease, is the most common form of arthritis. OA occurs when the protective cartilage that cushions the ends of bones gradually breaks down. This leads to the rubbing of bones against each other, resulting in pain and stiffness. Cyclic phosphatidic acid (cPA) shows promise as a treatment for OA. In this article, we review the most recent findings regarding the biological functions of cPA signaling in mammalian systems, specifically in relation to OA. cPA is a naturally occurring phospholipid mediator with unique cyclic phosphate rings at the sn-2 and sn-3 positions in the glycerol backbone. cPA promotes various responses, including cell proliferation, migration, and survival. cPA possesses physiological activities that are distinct from those elicited by lysophosphatidic acid; however, its biochemical origin has rarely been studied. Although there is currently no cure for OA, advances in medical research may lead to new therapies or strategies in the future, and cPA has potential therapeutic applications.

Nano-elemental selenium particle developed via supramolecular self-assembly of chondroitin sulfate A and Na 2SeO 3 to repair cartilage lesions. Carbohydr Polym 2023; 316:121047. [PMID: 37321739 DOI: 10.1016/j.carbpol.2023.121047] [Citation(s) in RCA: 3] [Impact Index Per Article: 3.0] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Key Words] [Track Full Text] [Journal Information] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 01/17/2023] [Revised: 05/17/2023] [Accepted: 05/20/2023] [Indexed: 06/17/2023]
Abstract
Cartilage repair is a significant clinical issue due to its restricted ability to regenerate and self-heal after cartilage lesions or degenerative disease. Herein, a nano-elemental selenium particle (chondroitin sulfate A‑selenium nanoparticle, CSA-SeNP) is developed by the supramolecular self-assembly of Na2SeO3 and negatively charged chondroitin sulfate A (CSA) via electrostatic interactions or hydrogen bonds followed by in-situ reducing of l-ascorbic acid for cartilage lesions repair. The constructed micelle exhibits a hydrodynamic particle size of 171.50 ± 2.40 nm and an exceptionally high selenium loading capacity (9.05 ± 0.03 %) and can promote chondrocyte proliferation, increase cartilage thickness, and improve the ultrastructure of chondrocytes and organelles. It mainly enhances the sulfation modification of chondroitin sulfate by up-regulating the expression of chondroitin sulfate 4-O sulfotransferase-1, -2, -3, which in turn promotes the expression of aggrecan to repair articular and epiphyseal-plate cartilage lesions. The micelles combine the bio-activity of CSA with selenium nanoparticles (SeNPs), which are less toxic than Na2SeO3, and low doses of CSA-SeNP are even superior to inorganic selenium in repairing cartilage lesions in rats. Thus, the developed CSA-SeNP is anticipated to be a promising selenium supplementation preparation in clinical application to address the difficulty of healing cartilage lesions with outstanding repair effects.

Abstract
PURPOSE We reported a case with carbohydrate sulfotransferase 3 (CHST3) spondyloepiphyseal dysplasia and made a systematic review of all previously reported cases. METHODS A 14.8-year-old boy underwent clinical, radiological, and genetic evaluations. The patients and five age-matched healthy boys accepted high-resolution peripheral quantitative computed tomography evaluation. All CHST3-related skeletal dysplasia cases from PubMed and Embase were collected and summarized. The genotype-phenotype correlation was analyzed. RESULTS The proband complained of aggravated joint pain and had a compression fracture of L2 during his second decade. Physical examination showed a height Z score of -4.94, short limbs, and restricted movement of the elbows and knees. X-rays showed carpal epiphyseal dysplasia, enlargement of elbow and knee joints, and subluxation of the left hip. Echocardiography showed abnormal cardiac valves. Compared with the norm, his total and trabecular volumetric bone mineral density (BMD), and the microarchitecture of the trabecular bone had trends to be worse at the distal radius and tibia. Two novel missense variants of c.1343T>G and c.761C>G in CHST3 were inherited from his father and mother, respectively. In the systematic review, short stature, limited joint extension, joint pain, and joint dislocation were the most common characteristics of this disorder. Height Z score and the proportion of hearing impairment had no significant differences between the missense and nonmissense mutations groups. CONCLUSION Progressive joint pain and movement restriction are the main characteristics of CHST3-related skeletal dysplasia. BMD and bone microarchitecture of this disorder needs further exploration. There is no apparent genotype-phenotype correlation in this disorder.

Effect of Low Nutrition and T-2 Toxin on C28/I2 Chondrocytes Cell Line and Chondroitin Sulfate-Modifying Sulfotransferases. Cartilage 2021; 13:818S-825S. [PMID: 34151604 PMCID: PMC8804821 DOI: 10.1177/19476035211023555] [Citation(s) in RCA: 2] [Impact Index Per Article: 0.7] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Key Words] [Track Full Text] [Journal Information] [Submit a Manuscript] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Indexed: 11/16/2022] Open
Abstract
OBJECTIVE To investigate the effects of low nutrition and trichothecenes-2 toxin (T-2) on human chondrocytes cell line C28/I2 and the gene expression levels of some chondroitin sulfate (CS)-modifying sulfotransferases. METHODS The chondrocytes were divided into 4 intervention groups: (a) control group (Dulbecco's modified Eagle's medium/Nutrient Mixture F-12 [DMEM/F-12] with fetal bovine serum [FBS]), (b) low-nutrition group (DMEM/F-12 without FBS), (c) T-2 group (DMEM/F-12 with FBS plus 20 ng/mL T-2), and (d) combined group (DMEM/F-12 without FBS plus 20 ng/mL T-2). Twenty-four hours postintervention, ultrastructural changes in the chondrocytes were observed by transmission electron microscopy (TEM). Live cell staining and methyl thiazolyl tetrazolium (MTT) assay were performed to observe cell viability. The expression of CS-modifying sulfotransferases, including carbohydrate sulfotransferase 3, 12, 13, 15 (CHST-3, CHST-12, CHST-13, and CHST-15, respectively), and uronyl 2-O-sulfotransferase (UST) were examined by quantitative real-time polymerase chain reaction (RT-qPCR) analysis. RESULTS The cells in the T-2 group and combined group had significantly lower live cell counts and relative survival rates than the control group. TEM pictures revealed decreased electron density of mitochondria in the low-nutrition group. The T-2 group and combined group both caused mitochondrial swelling, damage, and reduction in mitochondrial number. RT-qPCR showed a trend of altered expression of CHST and increased expression of UST genes under low-nutrition, T-2 toxin and combined interventions. CONCLUSIONS These results show early-stage Kashin-Beck disease chondrocyte pathophysiology, consisting of chondrocyte cell damage and compensatory upregulation of CHST and UST genes.

The first human induced pluripotent stem cell line of Kashin-Beck disease reveals involvement of heparan sulfate proteoglycan biosynthesis and PPAR pathway. FEBS J 2021; 289:279-293. [PMID: 34324261 DOI: 10.1111/febs.16143] [Citation(s) in RCA: 4] [Impact Index Per Article: 1.3] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Key Words] [Track Full Text] [Journal Information] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 09/09/2020] [Revised: 04/28/2021] [Accepted: 07/28/2021] [Indexed: 12/21/2022]
Abstract
Kashin-Beck disease (KBD) is an endemic osteochondropathy. Due to a lack of suitable animal or cellular disease models, the research progress on KBD has been limited. Our goal was to establish the first disease-specific human induced pluripotent stem cell (hiPSC) cellular disease model of KBD, and to explore its etiology and pathogenesis exploiting transcriptome sequencing. HiPSCs were reprogrammed from dermal fibroblasts of two KBD and one healthy control donor via integration-free vectors. Subsequently, hiPSCs were differentiated into chondrocytes through three-week culture. Gene expression profiles in KBD, normal primary chondrocytes, and hiPSC-derived chondrocytes were defined by RNA sequencing. A Venn diagram was constructed to show the number of shared differentially expressed genes (DEGs) between KBD and normal. Gene oncology and Kyoto Encyclopedia of Genes and Genomes annotations were performed, and six DEGs were further validated in other individuals by RT-qPCR. KBD cellular disease models were successfully established by generation of hiPSC lines. Seventeen consistent and significant DEGs present in all compared groups (KBD and normal) were identified. RT-qPCR validation gave consistent results with the sequencing data. Glycosaminoglycan biosynthesis-heparan sulfate/heparin; PPAR signaling pathway; and cell adhesion molecules (CAMs) were identified to be significantly altered in KBD. Differentiated chondrocytes derived from KBD-origin hiPSCs provide the first cellular disease model for etiological studies of KBD. This study also provides new sights into the pathogenesis and etiology of KBD and is likely to inform the development of targeted therapeutics for its treatment.
