Abstract
Exposure to air pollution has been associated with many adverse health effects. However, the evidence on the effects on osteoarthritis (OA) is scarce and the potential mechanism is unclear yet. Therefore, this study assessed the effect of exposure to air pollution (gaseous and particulate matter) and OA based on an animal model. We used four groups of female rats, including i) exposure to PMs and gaseous pollutants, ii) exposure only to gaseous pollutants, iii) exposure only to PMs, and iv) control (unexposed) group. The OA biomarkers, i.e., osteocalcin, cartilage oligomeric protein (COMP), and N-Telopeptides of Type I Collagen (NTX-I) and cytokines were measured in the plasma to detect the effect of exposure to ambient air pollution on OA in this animal model. The forced jogging exercises for 1 h and 5 days per week were used to record the physical activities. The median (interquartile range) concentrations of PM2.5 and PM10 were 35.9 (15.4) and 47.5 (22.5) μg/m3, respectively. The median (interquartile range (IQR)) of PM2.5, PM10, CO, NO2, SO2 and O3 in the inlet ambient air were 36.9 (16.9), 51.7 (23.6) μg/m3, 16.1 (12.5) ppm, 413.7 (177.1), 334.2 (218.8) and 208.9 (113.1) ppb, respectively. The osteocalcin was significantly lower in PM as well as PM-gaseous exposure groups compared to control. Moreover, expressions of COMP were increased significantly in the PMs and exposure group compared to the control. For the PMs-gaseous exposure group, the COMP expressions were the highest compared to the control group. Similar results were observed for NTX-I. Exposure to PM and gaseous pollutants significantly increased plasma cytokine levels compared to control. Overall, our study showed a significant effect of exposure to PMs and PMs-gaseous exposure with OA in rats. Moreover, we observed a synergistic effect of mixed gaseous-PMs exposure compared to PMs and gaseous pollutants separately.

Prospects for the Personalized Multimodal Therapy Approach to Pain Management via Action on NO and NOS. Molecules 2021; 26:molecules26092431. [PMID: 33921984 PMCID: PMC8122598 DOI: 10.3390/molecules26092431] [Citation(s) in RCA: 5] [Impact Index Per Article: 1.7] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Key Words] [Track Full Text] [Download PDF] [Figures] [Journal Information] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 03/31/2021] [Revised: 04/17/2021] [Accepted: 04/19/2021] [Indexed: 12/15/2022] Open
Abstract
Chronic pain syndromes are an important medical problem generated by various molecular, genetic, and pathophysiologic mechanisms. Back pain, neuropathic pain, and posttraumatic pain are the most important pathological processes associated with chronic pain in adults. Standard approaches to the treatment of them do not solve the problem of pain chronicity. This is the reason for the search for new personalized strategies for the prevention and treatment of chronic pain. The nitric oxide (NO) system can play one of the key roles in the development of peripheral pain and its chronicity. The purpose of the study is to review publications devoted to changes in the NO system in patients with peripheral chronical pain syndromes. We have carried out a search for the articles published in e-Library, PubMed, Oxford Press, Clinical Case, Springer, Elsevier, and Google Scholar databases. The search was carried out using keywords and their combinations. The role of NO and NO synthases (NOS) isoforms in peripheral pain development and chronicity was demonstrated primarily from animal models to humans. The most studied is the neuronal NOS (nNOS). The role of inducible NOS (iNOS) and endothelial NOS (eNOS) is still under investigation. Associative genetic studies have shown that single nucleotide variants (SNVs) of NOS1, NOS2, and NOS3 genes encoding nNOS, iNOS, and eNOS may be associated with acute and chronic peripheral pain. Prospects for the use of NOS inhibitors to modulate the effect of drugs used to treat peripheral pain syndrome are discussed. Associative genetic studies of SNVs NOS1, NOS2, and NOS3 genes are important for understanding genetic predictors of peripheral pain chronicity and development of new personalized pharmacotherapy strategies.
