The Synergistic Effects of Hyaluronic Acid and Platelet-Rich Plasma for Patellar Chondropathy. Biomedicines 2023; 12:6. [PMID: 38275367 PMCID: PMC10813186 DOI: 10.3390/biomedicines12010006] [Citation(s) in RCA: 0] [Impact Index Per Article: 0] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Key Words] [Track Full Text] [Journal Information] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 11/01/2023] [Revised: 11/23/2023] [Accepted: 12/06/2023] [Indexed: 01/27/2024] Open
Abstract
Musculoskeletal disorders are increasingly prevalent worldwide, causing significant socioeconomic burdens and diminished quality of life. Notably, patellar chondropathy (PC) is among the most widespread conditions affecting joint structures, resulting in profound pain and disability. Hyaluronic acid (HA) and platelet-rich plasma (PRP) have emerged as reliable, effective, and minimally invasive alternatives. Continuous research spanning from laboratory settings to clinical applications demonstrates the numerous advantages of both products. These encompass lubrication, anti-inflammation, and stimulation of cellular behaviors linked to proliferation, differentiation, migration, and the release of essential growth factors. Cumulatively, these benefits support the rejuvenation of bone and cartilaginous tissues, which are otherwise compromised due to the prevailing degenerative and inflammatory responses characteristic of tissue damage. While existing literature delves into the physical, mechanical, and biological facets of these products, as well as their commercial variants and distinct clinical uses, there is limited discussion on their interconnected roles. We explore basic science concepts, product variations, and clinical strategies. This comprehensive examination provides physicians with an alternative insight into the pathophysiology of PC as well as biological mechanisms stimulated by both HA and PRP that contribute to tissue restoration.

Abstract
Knee osteoarthritis (KOA) is a chronic joint bone disease characterized by inflammatory destruction and hyperplasia of bone. Its main clinical symptoms are joint mobility difficulties and pain, severe cases can lead to limb paralysis, which poses major pressure to the quality of life and mental health of patients, but also brings serious economic burden to society. The occurrence and development of KOA is influenced by many factors, including systemic factors and local factors. The joint biomechanical changes caused by aging, trauma and obesity, abnormal bone metabolism caused by metabolic syndrome, the effects of cytokines and related enzymes, genetic and biochemical abnormalities caused by plasma adiponectin, etc. all directly or indirectly lead to the occurrence of KOA. However, there is little literature that systematically and comprehensively integrates macro- and microscopic KOA pathogenesis. Therefore, it is necessary to comprehensively and systematically summarize the pathogenesis of KOA in order to provide a better theoretical basis for clinical treatment.

Abstract
Development of OA (OA) is multifactorial and is strongly associated with risk factors such as aging, trauma, metabolic disorders, and obesity. Metabolic Syndrome (MetS)-associated OA, collectively coined MetS-OA, is an increasingly recognized entity in which metabolic disorders and low-grade inflammation play a key mechanistic role in the disruption of joint homeostasis and cartilage degradation. Although there have been enormous efforts to discover biomarkers of MetS and OA, studies investigating a pathophysiological link between MetS and OA are relatively limited, and no serum blood marker has proved diagnostic so far. OA biomarkers that are necessary to discriminate and diagnose early disease remain to be elicited, explained in part by limited prospective studies, and therefore limited tools available to utilize in any prognostic capacity. Biomarker validation projects have been established by the Biomarker Consortium to determine biochemical markers demonstrating predictive validity for knee OA. Given that the metabolic constituents of MetS are treatable to varying extents, it stands to reason that treating these, and monitoring such treatment, may help to mitigate deleterious links with OA development. This narrative review will describe the current state of biomarker identification and utility in OA associated with MetS. We discuss the pathophysiological mechanisms of disease according to constituent pathologies of MetS and how identification of biomarkers may guide future investigation of novel targets.

CLINICAL MEDICINE INSIGHTS: ARTHRITIS AND MUSCULOSKELETAL DISORDERS 2022; 15:11795441221097361. [PMID: 35645586 PMCID: PMC9136446 DOI: 10.1177/11795441221097361] [Citation(s) in RCA: 0] [Impact Index Per Article: 0] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Track Full Text] [Download PDF] [Figures] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 12/31/2021] [Accepted: 04/08/2022] [Indexed: 11/17/2022]
Abstract
Background: Several studies have linked metabolic syndrome (MetS) to osteoarthritis (OA), but they have not looked into how MetS can affect the health-related quality of life (HRQOL) of OA individuals. Objectives: We aimed to assess the association of MetS and its components, including obesity, hypertension, hyperglycemia, and dyslipidemia, with HRQOL among Egyptians with knee OA. Methods: This cross-sectional study comprised 116 adult Egyptian participants with knee OA. They were divided into 2 groups based on whether or not they had the MetS. All participants were subjected to a thorough medical history taking and a detailed medical examination. The Kellgren and Lawrence (K/L) scale evaluated OA in all individuals using anteroposterior knee radiographs. The Health Assessment Questionnaire-Disability Index (HAQ-DI) and the Western Ontario and McMaster Universities Osteoarthritis Index (WOMAC) were used to assess participants’ HRQOL; their higher scores indicate more disability. Spearman rank and Pearson’s correlation analyses were used to assess the association between variables. Results: Diabetes, hypertension, dyslipidemia, and obesity were significantly associated with the OA + MetS group with a prevalence of 77.6%, 82.8%, 77.6%, and 50.0%, respectively. According to the K/L scale, 70.7% of the OA + MetS group had grade IV knee affection. The HAQ-DI and WOMAC scores were significantly (P < .001) higher among the OA + MetS individuals compared with the OA individuals. Interleukin (IL)-6 serum levels were also significantly higher in the OA + MetS group (P = .036) and increased significantly with the more serious radiological damage and functional disability. We found significant positive correlations between HAQ-DI and WOMAC with waist circumference (P = .004, .001), as well as triglycerides (P = .006, .008), cholesterol (P = .041, .048), fasting blood sugar (P < .001, < .001) and significant negative correlations with high-density lipoprotein levels (P = .628, .002). Conclusions: Individuals with knee OA with MetS showed more significant radiological damage, severe functional disability, and poor HRQOL. They also had higher levels of IL-6, which correlated significantly with the degree of disability, promoting it as a significant therapeutic target.

5,7,3',4'-tetramethoxyflavone ameliorates cholesterol dysregulation by mediating SIRT1/FOXO3a/ABCA1 signaling in osteoarthritis chondrocytes. Future Med Chem 2021; 13:2153-2166.

Abstract
Dyslipidemia has been associated with the development of osteoarthritis. Our previous study found that 5,7,3',4'-tetramethoxyflavone (TMF) exhibited protective activities against the pathological changes of osteoarthritis. Aim: To investigate the roles of TMF in regulating ABCA1-mediated cholesterol metabolism. Methods: Knockdown and overexpression were employed to study gene functions. Protein-protein interaction was investigated by co-immunoprecipitation, and the subcellular locations of proteins were studied by immunofluorescence. Results: IL-1β decreased ABCA1 expression and induced apoptosis. Therapeutically, TMF ameliorated the effects of IL-1β. FOXO3a knockdown expression abrogated the effects of TMF, and FOXO3a overexpression increased ABCA1 expression by interacting with LXRα. TMF promoted FOXO3a nuclear translocation by activating SIRT1 expression. Conclusions: TMF ameliorates cholesterol dysregulation by increasing the expression of FOXO3a/LXRα/ABCA1 signaling through SIRT1 in C28/I2 cells.
