Abstract
BACKGROUND Osteoarthritis is a prevalent joint disease affecting both humans and animals. It is characterized by articular cartilage degeneration and joint surface eburnation. Currently, no effective pharmacological treatment is available to restore the original function and structure of defective cartilage. OBJECTIVE This study explores the potential of stem cell-based therapy in treating joint diseases involving cartilage degeneration, offering a promising avenue for future research and treatment. The primary aim was to compare the characteristics and, more importantly, the chondrogenic differentiation potential of human and rat adipose-derived mesenchymal stem cells (AD-MSCs). METHODS Rat adipose tissue was collected from Sprague Dawley rats, while human adipose tissue was obtained in the form of lipoaspirate. The mesenchymal stem cells (MSCs) were then harvested using collagenase enzyme and subcultured. We meticulously evaluated and compared the cell morphology, percentage of cell viability, population doubling time, metabolic proliferation, and chondrogenic differentiation potential of MSCs harvested from both sources. Chondrogenic differentiation was induced at passage 3 using the 3D pellet culture method and assessed through histological and molecular analysis. RESULTS The findings revealed that human and rat AD-MSCs were phenotypically identical, and an insignificant difference was found in cell morphology, percentage of cell viability, metabolic proliferation, and population doubling time. However, the chondrogenic differentiation potential of human AD-MSCs was evaluated as significantly higher than that of rat AD-MSCs. CONCLUSION The current study suggests that research regarding chondrogenic differentiation of rat AD-MSCs can be effectively translated to humans. This discovery is a significant contribution to the field of regenerative medicine and has the potential to advance our understanding of stem cell-based therapy for joint diseases.

Xu T, Zhang B, Fang D. The effect of resistance training on patients with knee osteoarthritis: a systematic review and meta-analysis. Res Sports Med 2024:1-19. [PMID: 38980284 DOI: 10.1080/15438627.2024.2377087] [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: 06/15/2023] [Accepted: 07/02/2024] [Indexed: 07/10/2024]
Abstract
The objective of this study is to investigate the beneficial effects of resistance training (RT) on individuals suffering from knee osteoarthritis (KOA). In order to gather relevant studies from the beginning of various databases until January 2023, a comprehensive search was conducted on PubMed, Embase, Scopus, Web of Science, and The Cochrane Library. Additionally, manual searches were performed on the reference lists. The association between RT and KOA was analysed using a random-effects model. The results indicated that patients with KOA who underwent RT experienced a significant reduction in the WOMAC (Western Ontario and McMaster Universities Osteoarthritis) Pain index (WMD = -2.441; 95% CI = -3.610 to -1.273; p < 0.01), the WOMAC Stiffness index (WMD = -1.018; 95% CI = -1.744 to -0.293; p < 0.01), the WOMAC Function index (WMD = -7.208; 95% CI = -10.412 to -4.004; p < 0.01), and the VAS (Visual Analogue Scale) index (WMD = -5.721; 95% CI = -9.320 to -2.121; p < 0.01). These improvements were observed when compared to the control group. However, no significant difference was found in the 6-MWT (6-Minute Walk Test) index between the two groups (WMD = 2.659; 95% CI= -16.741 to 22.058; p = 0.788). Consequently, RT has the potential to positively enhance pain, stiffness, and function in patients with KOA, while the 6-MWT index may not exhibit significant improvement.

Effect of strength training on knee proprioception in patients with knee osteoarthritis: A systematic review and meta-analysis. SPORTS MEDICINE AND HEALTH SCIENCE 2024; 6:101-110. [PMID: 38708322 PMCID: PMC11067762 DOI: 10.1016/j.smhs.2023.10.005] [Citation(s) in RCA: 0] [Impact Index Per Article: 0] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Key Words] [Track Full Text] [Download PDF] [Figures] [Journal Information] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 06/01/2023] [Revised: 10/14/2023] [Accepted: 10/30/2023] [Indexed: 05/07/2024] Open
Abstract
Proprioception is significantly impaired in knee osteoarthritis (KOA), contributing to reduced functionality. Strength training (ST) is essential in KOA by improving muscle strength, although it may also be effective in improving proprioception. The purpose was to determine the effect of ST on knee proprioception in KOA patients. Pubmed, CINAHL, Scopus, WOS, and PEDro were searched for randomized controlled trials (RCTs) (inception to March 2023). Comparisons for ST were physical exercise different from ST, non-exercise-based interventions, and no intervention. Methodological quality was assessed using the PEDro scale, and risk of bias (RoB) using the Cochrane tool. Meta-analyses were performed by comparison groups using the standardized mean difference (SMD) (Hedge's g) with random effects models, also considering subgroups by proprioception tests. Finally, six RCTs were included. The mean PEDro score was 6.3, and the highest proportion of biases corresponds to performance, selection, and detection. The meta-analysis indicated that only when compared with non-intervention, ST significantly improved knee proprioception for the joint position sense (JPS) (active + passive), JPS (passive), and threshold to detect passive motion (TTDPM) subgroups (g = -1.33 [-2.33, -0.32], g = -2.29 [-2.82, -1.75] and g = -2.40 [-4.23, -0.58], respectively). However, in the knee JPS (active) subgroup, ST was not significant (g = -0.72 [-1.84, 0.40]). In conclusion, ST improves knee proprioception compared to non-intervention. However, due to the paucity of studies and diversity of interventions, more evidence is needed to support the effectiveness of ST. Future RCTs may address the limitations of this review to advance knowledge about proprioceptive responses to ST and contribute to clinical practice.

Abstract
INTRODUCTION Knee osteoarthritis (KOA) is still a challenging degenerative joint disease with high morbidity and disease burden. Early-stage KOA, the focus of this study, could present a Window of Opportunity to arrest the disease process and reduce the disease burden. Yijinjing exercise is an important part of physical and psychological therapies in Traditional Chinese Exercise and may be an effective treatment. However, there is no clinical efficacy assessment of Yijinjing exercise for patients with early-stage KOA. Therefore, we designed a randomised controlled trial to evaluate the effectiveness of Yijinjing exercise on patients with early-stage KOA. METHODS AND ANALYSIS This is a parallel-design, two-arm, analyst assessor-blinded, randomised controlled trial. In total, 60 patients with early-stage KOA will be recruited and randomly assigned to the Yijinjing exercise group (n=30) and health education group (n=30) at a ratio of 1:1, receiving 12 weeks of Yijinjing exercise or health education accordingly. The primary outcome will be measured with the Western Ontario and McMaster Universities Osteoarthritis Index, and the secondary outcomes will include the Visual Analogue Scale, Short-Form 36 Item Health Survey Questionnaire, Beck Depression Inventory, Perceived Stress Scale, Berg Balance Scale, and Gait Analysis for a comprehensive assessment. Outcome measures are collected at baseline, at 12 week ending intervention and at the 12 week, 24 week and 48 week ending follow-up. The primay time point will be 12 weeks postintervention. Adverse events will be recorded for safety assessment. ETHICS AND DISSEMINATION This study has been approved by the ethical application of the Shanghai Municipal Hospital of Traditional Chinese Medicine Ethics Committee (2021SHL-KY-78). TRIAL REGISTRATION NUMBER ChiCTR2200065178.

Alshahrani MS, Reddy RS. Quadriceps Strength, Postural Stability, and Pain Mediation in Bilateral Knee Osteoarthritis: A Comparative Analysis with Healthy Controls. Diagnostics (Basel) 2023; 13:3110. [PMID: 37835853 PMCID: PMC10573007 DOI: 10.3390/diagnostics13193110] [Citation(s) in RCA: 2] [Impact Index Per Article: 2.0] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Key Words] [Grants] [Track Full Text] [Journal Information] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 08/18/2023] [Revised: 09/27/2023] [Accepted: 09/29/2023] [Indexed: 10/15/2023] Open
Abstract
Bilateral knee osteoarthritis (OA) poses significant challenges to individuals' functional abilities, including quadriceps strength, postural stability, and pain perception. Understanding the complex relationships among these factors is crucial for enhancing knee OA management strategies. The primary objective of this research is to evaluate and draw comparisons between the strength of the quadriceps and the level of postural stability in two distinct groups: individuals afflicted with bilateral knee OA and those who are healthy. Furthermore, the study seeks to examine the potential correlation between the strength of the quadriceps and the level of postural stability in individuals with knee OA. In addition to this, an investigation into the potential mediating effect of pain on the relationship between these physiological factors will also be conducted. A total of 95 participants with bilateral knee OA and 95 healthy controls were recruited. Quadriceps strength was assessed using dynamometry and postural stability was evaluated through anterior-posterior and medial-lateral sway measurements along with the ellipse area using a force plate. Pain levels were measured using the Visual Analog Scale (VAS). Mediation analysis was employed to explore the role of pain in mediating the relationship between quadriceps strength and postural stability. Statistical analyses included t-tests, Pearson correlation coefficients, and mediation analysis. Knee OA participants exhibited significantly lower quadriceps strength (1.08 Nm/kg ± 0.54) compared to controls (1.54 Nm/kg ± 0.57, p < 0.001). They also demonstrated compromised postural stability with increased anterior-posterior sway (9.86 mm ± 3.017 vs. 2.98 mm ± 1.12, p < 0.001), medial-lateral sway (7.87 mm ± 2.23 vs. 3.12 mm ± 1.34, p < 0.001), and larger ellipse area (935.75 mm2 ± 172.56 vs. 436.19 mm2 ± 135.48, p < 0.001). Negative correlations were observed between quadriceps strength and postural stability variables (r = from -0.43 to -0.51, p < 0.001). Pain significantly mediated the relationship between quadriceps strength and postural stability variables (p < 0.05). This study highlights the associations between quadriceps strength, postural stability, and pain mediation in individuals with bilateral knee OA. Our findings emphasize the need for targeted interventions addressing quadriceps weakness and compromised postural stability. Additionally, the mediation effect of pain underscores the complexity of these relationships, offering insights for more effective management strategies.

Low-frequency whole-body vibration can enhance cartilage degradation with slight changes in subchondral bone in mice with knee osteoarthritis and does not have any morphologic effect on normal joints. PLoS One 2023; 18:e0270074. [PMID: 37590222 PMCID: PMC10434961 DOI: 10.1371/journal.pone.0270074] [Citation(s) in RCA: 0] [Impact Index Per Article: 0] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [MESH Headings] [Grants] [Track Full Text] [Journal Information] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 06/13/2022] [Accepted: 07/20/2023] [Indexed: 08/19/2023] Open
Abstract
PURPOSES To evaluate the effects of low frequency whole-body vibration (WBV) on degeneration of articular cartilage and subchondral bone in mice with destabilization of the medial meniscus (DMM)induced osteoarthritis(OA) and mice with normal knee. METHODS Ten-week-old C57BL/6J male mice received DMM on right knees, while the left knees performed sham operation. There were six groups: DMM, SHAM DMM, DMM+WBV,SHAM DMM+WBV, DMM+ NON-WBV and SHAM DMM+NON-WBV. After four weeks, the knees were harvested from the DMM and SHAM DMM group. The remaining groups were treated with WBV (10 Hz) or NON-WBV. Four weeks later, the knees were harvested. Genes, containing Aggrecan(Acan) and CollagenⅡ(Col2a1), Matrix Metalloproteinases 3 and 13(MMP3,13), TNFα and IL6, were measured and staining was also performed. OA was graded with OARSI scores, and tibial plateaubone volume to tissue volume ratio(BV/TV), bone surface area to bone volume ratio (BS/BV), trabecular number(Tb.N) and trabecular thickness separation(TS) between groups were analyzed. RESULTS Increased OARSI scores and cartilage degradation were observed after WBV. BV/TV, Tb.N and TS were not significant between the groups. Significant reductions were observed in MMP3, MMP13, Col2a1, Acan, TNFα and IL6 in the DMM+WBV compared to SHAM DMM+WBV group. BV/TV, BS/BV, Tb.N, TS and OARSI scores were not significantly changed in the left knees. IL6 expression in the SHAM DMM+WBV group was significantly increased compared with the SHAM DMM+ NON-WBV group, while Col2a1, Acan and MMP13 expression decreased. CONCLUSION WBV accelerated cartilage degeneration and caused slight changes in subchondral bone in a DMM-induced OA model. WBV had no morphologic effect on normal joints.

Abstract
OBJECTIVE To observe the effect of melatonin intervention on rat knee osteoarthritis (KOA) model and explore its mechanism. METHODS A total of 81 Sprague-Dawley (SD) rats were employed. Haematoxylin and eosin (H&E) staining and safranin o-solid green staining were used to observe the changes of pathology in KOA, and inflammation factors in serum were detected by enzyme-linked immunosorbent assay (ELISA), type II collagen (Col-II) was detected by immunohistochemistry, chondrocyte apoptosis was detected by TdT-mediated dUTP nick-end labeling (TUNEL). The expression of matrix metalloproteinases (MMPs) and JAK2/STAT3 signaling were detected by western blot. RESULTS Melatonin treatment ameliorated the histomorphology of knee joint in rats compared to the model group. The contents of TNF-α, IL-6, and IL-1β in serum were decreased after melatonin treatment. In addition, compared to the model group, the positive expression of Col-II increased, the chondrocyte apoptosis decreased after melatonin treatment. Interestingly, the expression levels of MMP3, MMP9, MMP13, p-JAK2 and p-STAT3 decreased (p < 0.05). Importantly, melatonin combined with AG490 is significantly ameliorates histomorphology of knee joint, reduced cartilage loss compared with melatonin treatment alone. CONCLUSIONS Melatonin treatment can effectively diminish the cartilage injury. Its mechanism may be related to protect the articular cartilage by reducing the release of inflammatory factors, inhibit the expression of MMPs and JAK2/STAT3 signaling.

Abstract
ABSTRACT Introduction: The research on vibration training has experienced a period of development in many projects, such as badminton, handball, long jump, and volleyball. However, there is still no quantitative research evaluation of its effects on the development of shoulder, elbow, and upper limb muscle strength in volleyball athletes. It is believed that a specific training protocol with vibration may bring benefits to sensory-motor performance and muscle strength implementation in volleyball athletes. Objective: To study the effects of vibration training on upper limb function in volleyball players. Methods: Literature, experimental, and mathematical-statistical research methods were used to explore the relationship between vibration training under the muscle strength of the upper limbs and their joints. Results: The vibration training with an amplitude of 2mm, at a vibration frequency between 30Hz and 45Hz, the frequency of vibration training presented inversely proportional to the effect of vibration training. Conclusion: Vibration training showed the benefits of motor coordination and increased muscle strength in volleyball players. An appropriate vibration training strategy can maximize athletes’ skills, such as body coordination, flexibility, and jumping ability. Level of evidence II; Therapeutic studies - investigation of treatment outcomes.

Abstract
ABSTRACT Introduction Modern basketball is very competitive and enjoyable; it combines several factors. Basketball requires specific physical characteristics such as high stature, which raises the position of the center of gravity, making the stability angle smaller. This compromises stability, especially in sudden speed and direction changes, because it requires a large base opening. The core musculature is intimately involved with body balance; however, there is a lack of studies verifying the impact of specific training of this region on balance in basketball athletes. Objective To explore the influence of core strengthening on the physical fitness of college basketball players. Methods 12 college basketball players were selected and randomly divided into a control group and an experimental group. The experimental group performed core strengthening training, while the control group practiced traditional strength training. After six weeks, physical fitness and basic skills were compared between the groups. Data were statistically treated and discussed confronting the literature. Results Basketball players in the experimental group obtained higher fast dribbling passes and shots than before the experiment (P<0.05), there was no statistically significant difference in several indicators in the control group ( P>0.05); Basketball players in the experimental group had higher fast dribbling passes and shots than the control group (P<0.05), there was no statistically significant difference in approach height between the experimental group and the control group (P>0.05). Conclusion Core strengthening training can improve the physical fitness of college basketball players. Evidence level II; Therapeutic Studies - Investigating the results.

A systematic review with meta-analyses. Osteoarthritis Cartilage 2022; 30:1420-1433. [PMID: 35970256 DOI: 10.1016/j.joca.2022.07.008] [Citation(s) in RCA: 11] [Impact Index Per Article: 5.5] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Key Words] [Track Full Text] [Journal Information] [Submit a Manuscript] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 03/16/2022] [Revised: 07/18/2022] [Accepted: 07/20/2022] [Indexed: 02/02/2023]
Abstract
PRIMARY OBJECTIVE Investigate the effects of land-based exercise-therapy on physical activity in people with knee osteoarthritis (KOA). DESIGN Systematic review and meta-analysis of randomised or quasi-randomised trials investigating land-based exercise-therapy on physical activity, fitness, and general health in people with KOA. We updated a 2013 Cochrane review search on exercise-therapy for KOA in April 2021 and applied the Cochrane Risk-of-Bias Tool 1.0 to included articles. Standardised mean differences (SMDs) and 95% confidence intervals (CI) were calculated. GRADE was used to assess certainty of the evidence. RESULTS Twenty-eight randomised controlled trials (2,789 participants) evaluating the effects of resistance-training (n = 10), walking (n = 6) and mixed-exercise programs (n = 7) were identified. Low to moderate certainty evidence indicated small increases in physical activity for exercise-therapy compared to non-exercise interventions in the short-term (SMD, 95% CI = 0.29, 0.09 to 0.50), but not the medium- (0.03, -0.11 to 0.18) or long-term (-0.06, -0.34 to 0.22). Low certainty evidence indicated large increases in physical activity for walking programs (0.53, 0.11 to 0.95) and mixed-exercise programs (0.67, 0.37 to 0.97) compared to non-exercise interventions in the short-term. Low certainty evidence indicated moderate and small increases in physical activity for resistance-training combined with education focused on pain coping skills and self-efficacy compared to education alone at medium-term follow-up (0.45, 0.19 to 0.71). CONCLUSION Walking and mixed-exercise, but not resistance-training, may improve physical activity in people with KOA in the short-term. Combining resistance-training with education may increase physical activity in the medium-, but not the long-term, highlighting the potential importance of developing more effective longer-term interventions for people with KOA. Future studies evaluating land-based exercise-therapy are encouraged to include physical activity outcomes and longer-term follow-up to increase the certainty of evidence.

[PMID: 34536625 DOI: 10.1016/j.jbspin.2021.105276] [Citation(s) in RCA: 2] [Impact Index Per Article: 0.7] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Key Words] [MESH Headings] [Track Full Text] [Journal Information] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 05/17/2021] [Accepted: 09/01/2021] [Indexed: 11/19/2022]
Abstract
With the gradual increase of the aging population in Chinese society, the incidence of knee osteoarthritis showed an increasing trend. However, there are very few practical solutions for it. As a novel neuromuscular training technique, whole-body vibration training has become a candidate for treating knee osteoarthritis. In this review, we firstly elaborated on the mode of action and influence factors of the whole-body vibration training. Next, we summarized its effects in knee osteoarthritis, including improving knee function and some uncertain muscle function and proprioception effects. Next, we also summarized its possible mechanisms, including improving bone microstructure, delaying articular cartilage degeneration, modulating inflammatory cells and inflammatory factors. Then, we summarized the clinical effectiveness of whole-body vibration training by analyzing some clinical randomized controlled trials. Finally, based on the above summary, we analyzed and listed the limitations of whole-body vibration training in treating knee osteoarthritis and found the shortcomings in the existing studies. This review provides ideas for the future application of whole-body vibration training in the treatment of knee osteoarthritis.
