Abstract
Introduction Diabetes and osteoarthritis (OA) are prevalent chronic conditions, often occurring concurrently and complicating patient management. While the individual impact of each condition on functional impairment is well documented, their combined effect remains poorly understood. This study aims to elucidate the relationship between diabetes and OA-related functional impairment. Methodology This was a cross-sectional study of 290 participants with unilateral knee OA. Their demographic, clinical, and diabetes data were collected. Functional impairment was assessed using the Western Ontario and McMaster Universities Osteoarthritis Index-Center for Rheumatic Diseases (WOMAC-CRD). Statistical analyses investigated the relationships between diabetes, OA severity, and functional impairment. Result Diabetic participants showed significantly worse physical function and overall disability, with lower WOMAC-CRD scores. Mean WOMAC-CRD pain scores were 6.46 (SD = 1.088) and 6.48 (SD = 1.101) for the diabetic and non-diabetic groups, respectively. Mean WOMAC-CRD stiffness scores were 6.48 (SD = 1.101) and 6.56 (SD = 1.083) for diabetic and non-diabetic groups. Diabetic participants had a mean WOMAC-CRD physical function score of 55.93 (SD = 2.484), compared to 64.02 (SD = 2.542) for non-diabetic participants. The mean total WOMAC score was 68.80 (SD = 2.857) for diabetic participants and 77.06 (SD = 2.933) for non-diabetic participants. Longer diabetes duration correlated negatively with physical function and total WOMAC scores. Discussion The findings suggest that diabetes exacerbates functional impairment in OA patients, particularly affecting physical function and overall disability. Chronic inflammation and the accumulation of advanced glycation end-products may contribute to the observed deterioration in joint function. Conclusion Integrated management strategies addressing both diabetes and OA are essential for optimizing patient care.

Abstract
Diabetes mellitus (DM) has been demonstrated to accelerate the progression of osteoarthritis (OA) by largely unknown mechanisms. Studies have shown that DM dysfunctional adipocyte-derived exosomes play a crucial role in the pathogenesis of remote organ functions. The present study aimed to clarify whether and how diabetic adipocyte-derived exosomes mediate the pathological regulation of OA. We found that intraarticular injection of DM serum exosomes in the non-diabetic mice significantly exacerbated OA injury as evidenced by a rough and fractured cartilage surface as well as increased chondrocyte apoptosis, decreased mitochondrial membrane potential (△Ψ) and increased expression of cleaved caspase-3. Mechanistic investigation identified that miR-130b-3p was significantly increased in circulating exosomes derived from DM mice and exosomes derived from HG-treated normal adipocytes, and we demonstrated that transfection of miR-130b-3p mimics significantly exacerbated the mitochondrial function of chondrocytes. Our data also indicated that miR-130b-3p impaired the △Ψ, increased cleaved caspase-3 levels, and decreased the expression of 5'-adenosine monophosphate-activated protein kinase α1 (AMPKα1), Silent mating-type information regulation 2 homolog 1 (SIRT1), and peroxisome proliferator-activated receptor gamma coactivator-1α (PGC-1α) in chondrocytes. Pharmacologic activation of AMPKα1 using AICAR reversed the △Ψ and catabolic responses in chondrocytes transfected with miR-130b-3p mimics. Moreover, AICAR decreased the effects of miR-130b-3p mimics on chondrocytes transfected with SIRT1-siRNA or PGC-1α-siRNA. The current study demonstrated that adipocyte-derived exosomal miR-130b-3p under DM conditions suppresses mitochondrial function in chondrocytes through targeting the AMPKα1/SIRT1/PGC1-α pathway, thus exacerbating OA injury.

[PMID: 38468219 DOI: 10.1186/s12889-024-18272-9] [Citation(s) in RCA: 0] [Impact Index Per Article: 0] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Key Words] [MESH Headings] [Grants] [Track Full Text] [Journal Information] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 09/23/2023] [Accepted: 03/04/2024] [Indexed: 03/13/2024] Open
Abstract
BACKGROUND The relationship between the triglyceride glucose (TyG) index and osteoarthritis (OA) remains unclear. The objective of this study was to examine potential associations between an elevated TyG index and an increased risk of OA prevalence. METHODS 3,921 participants with OA from the National Health and Nutrition Examination Survey (2015-2020) were included in this study. Participants were categorized into quartiles based on TyG index, which was determined using the formula: Ln [triglyceride (mg/dL) fasting blood glucose (mg/dL)/2]. Weighted multivariable regression, subgroup analyses, and threshold effect analyses were performed to calculate the independent association between TyG index and OA. RESULTS A total of 25,514 people were enrolled, with a mean TyG index of 8.48 ± 0.65. The results of multivariable logistic regression analysis after full adjustment showed a significant association between higher TyG index values and an increased risk of OA. Specifically, each incremental unit increase in the TyG index was associated with a 634% higher risk of OA [OR = 7.34; 95% CI: 2.25, 23.93; p = 0.0010]. Based on interaction tests, age, gender, BMI, and smoking status did not significantly affect the relationship between the TyG index and OA, while diabetes showed a stronger positive correlation between the TyG index and OA. CONCLUSION An increased risk of OA was associated with a higher TyG index. TyG could be a valuable predictor of OA and offer novel perspectives on the assessment and treatment of OA.

Abstract
Obesity is one of the main modifiable risk factors for osteoarthritis (OA). Moreover, obesity is associated with greater pain intensity and functional limitation, but also with a significantly lower responder rate to intra-articular treatments. Consequently, an arthroplasty is indicated earlier and more frequently in patients with obesity. However, pain and functional symptoms improve slightly less after arthroplasty in patients with obesity, who display higher incidence of early and late complications following prosthetic surgery. Bariatric surgery (BS) has increased worldwide and is efficient to induce major and sustainable weight-loss. Importantly, BS significantly reduces pain and functional limitation in patients with symptomatic knee OA. Biomarkers analysis also revealed a decrease in catabolic factors and an increase in anabolic one after BS suggesting a structural protective effect in knee OA. Nevertheless, the impact of BS prior to arthroplasty remains unclear. BS seems to decrease short- and mid-term complications such as infections or thrombosis. However, BS does not appear to modify long-term complications rate, and may even increase it, especially revisions and infections. Although few studies have compared the symptomatic and functional outcomes of joint replacement with or without BS, these are not significantly improved by prior BS. Despite these heterogeneous results, medico-economic studies found that BS prior to arthroplasty was cost-effective. To conclude, BS could significantly reduce the symptoms of OA and potentially slow its progression, but appears more disappointing in preventing long-term complications of arthroplasties and improving their functional results.

Abstract
Type 2 diabetes mellitus (T2DM) represents a significant health problem globally and is linked to a number of complications such as cardiovascular disease, bone fragility and periodontitis. Autologous bone marrow mesenchymal stem cells (BM-MSCs) are a promising therapeutic approach for bone and periodontal regeneration; however, the effect of T2DM on the expression of osteogenic and periodontal markers in BM-MSCs is not fully established. Furthermore, the effect of the presence of comorbidities such as diabetes and osteoarthritis on BM-MSCs is also yet to be investigated. In the present study, BM-MSCs were isolated from osteoarthritic knee joints of diabetic and nondiabetic donors. Both cell groups were compared for their clonogenicity, proliferation rates, MSC enumeration and expression of surface markers. Formation of calcified deposits and expression of osteogenic and periodontal markers were assessed after 1, 2 and 3 weeks of basal and osteogenic culture. Diabetic and nondiabetic BM-MSCs showed similar clonogenic and growth potentials along with comparable numbers of MSCs. However, diabetic BM-MSCs displayed lower expression of periostin (POSTN) and cementum protein 1 (CEMP-1) at Wk3 osteogenic and Wk1 basal cultures, respectively. BM-MSCs from T2DM patients might be suitable candidates for stem cell-based therapeutics. However, further investigations into these cells' behaviours in vitro and in vivo under inflammatory environments and hyperglycaemic conditions are still required.

Factors associated with physical activity following total knee arthroplasty for knee osteoarthritis: a longitudinal study. BMC Musculoskelet Disord 2024; 25:178. [PMID: 38413902 PMCID: PMC10898134 DOI: 10.1186/s12891-024-07306-3] [Citation(s) in RCA: 0] [Impact Index Per Article: 0] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Key Words] [MESH Headings] [Track Full Text] [Journal Information] [Submit a Manuscript] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 07/25/2023] [Accepted: 02/23/2024] [Indexed: 02/29/2024] Open
Abstract
BACKGROUND After total knee arthroplasty (TKA), patients' physical activity (PA) levels at 6 months are lower than those of healthy subjects. Few studies have investigated the factors associated with PA at 6 months after TKA by objectively measuring preoperative and postoperative PA intensity using an accelerometer and knee function using a goniometer and dynamometer. The purpose of this study was to determine the factors associated with PA levels at 6 months after TKA based on objective data. METHODS Eighty-two patients (mean [SD] age 74.5 [6.4] years) with moderate-to-severe knee osteoarthritis (OA) who were scheduled for TKA at the Nagoya Orthopaedic and Joint Replacement Clinic from July 2018 to July 2019 were enrolled in this longitudinal study. All patients underwent evaluations of knee function, including range-of-motion and knee-extension muscle strength; knee pain; performance in the timed up-and-go test; and accelerometer-measured PA both preoperatively and 6 months postoperatively. Factors associated with PA at 6 months after TKA were assessed using a hierarchical multiple linear regression analysis adjusted for age, sex, body mass index, and presence of diabetes mellitus. RESULTS A higher average daily step count at 6 months after TKA was significantly associated with greater preoperative knee-extension muscle strength on the operated side (β = 0.155, p = 0.028) as well as a higher preoperative average daily step count (β = 0.834, p < 0.001). Furthermore, average daily time spent in moderate-to-vigorous-intensity PA postoperatively was significantly associated only with time spent in moderate-to-vigorous-intensity PA preoperatively (β = 0.723, p < 0.001). CONCLUSION These findings indicate that a higher preoperative daily step count and greater preoperative knee-extension muscle strength on the operated side may be associated with a higher daily step count at 6 months after TKA. Factors associated with PA differed by the PA intensity level. Rehabilitation and interventions for psychosocial factors before TKA beginning when mild knee OA first occurs are expected to lead to increased PA in TKA patients.

Abstract
PURPOSE To examine the sex differences in the relationship of metabolic syndrome (MetS) criteria with arthritis and symptomatic arthritis among Mexican American older adults aged ≥ 65 without self-reported arthritis at baseline over 23-years of follow-up. METHODS Participants (N = 1447) were from the Hispanic Established Population for the Epidemiologic Study of the Elderly (1993/94-2016). Measures included MetS criteria, arthritis defined as self-reported physician-diagnosed arthritis, socio-demographics, morbidities, depressive symptoms, pain on weight-bearing, cognitive and physical function, handgrip strength, mobility, and activities of daily living (ADLs) limitations. Symptomatic arthritis was defined as self-reported arthritis and having ≥ 1 of the following: pain, mobility limitation, or limited ADLs. RESULTS At baseline, the mean age was 72.6 years and 730 (50.5%) of our participants were females. Female participants with 2 and 3 MetS criteria had greater odds of arthritis [odds ratio (OR) = 1.77, 95% Confidence Interval (Cl) = 1.28-2.45 and OR = 2.68, 95% CI = 1.69-4.27, respectively) and symptomatic arthritis (OR = 1.74, 95% Cl = 1.24-2.44 and OR = 3.27, 95% CI = 2.04-5.26, respectively) after controlling for covariates. Male participants with 2 and 3 MetS criteria had greater odds of arthritis (OR = 1.65, 95% Cl = 1.14-2.39 and OR = 2.52, 95% CI = 1.51-4.19, respectively) and symptomatic arthritis (OR = 1.93, 95% Cl = 1.30-2.86 and OR = 2.98, 95% CI = 1.62-5.47, respectively) after controlling for covariates. Both females and males with pain on weight-bearing had greater odds of arthritis than those without pain. CONCLUSIONS At 23-years of follow-up, Mexican American older adults with MetS have an increased risk of arthritis and symptomatic arthritis. Early MetS screening and management may reduce arthritis in this population at high risk of disability.

Abstract
INTRODUCTION This study aimed to investigate the associations of comorbidities with knee symptoms and radiographic abnormalities of osteoarthritis (OA). METHODS Participants were from the Osteoarthritis Initiative. Comorbidities were identified at baseline using the modified Charlson Comorbidity Index. For both knees, symptoms were assessed annually from baseline to 48 months using the Western Ontario and McMaster Universities Osteoarthritis Index (WOMAC) pain and function scores (rescaled range 0-100), and radiographic abnormalities using the Kellgren-Lawrence (KL, 0-4) grades. The presence of significant pain and functional disability was defined as a WOMAC score of ≥ 25 and ≥ 22, respectively, and radiographic OA (ROA) as KL ≥ 2. An increase of ≥ 9 in WOMAC scores and ≥ 1 in KL grades were defined as symptomatic and radiographic progression, respectively. RESULTS Of 3337 participants, 28% and 9% had one and ≥ 2 comorbidities, respectively. The number of comorbidities was associated with the presence of significant functional disability (odds ratios [ORs] 1.15; 1.46) and predicted the progression of both knee pain and functional disability (ORs 1.11; 1.51). For the type of comorbidities, non-OA musculoskeletal diseases were associated with the presence of ROA and significant functional disability (ORs 1.63; 1.82) and showed a trend to predict incident ROA (OR 1.84, 95% confidence interval 1.00-3.38 p = 0.051). Diabetes and kidney diseases were associated with symptomatic progression of OA (ORs 1.38; 2.72). CONCLUSIONS Having more comorbidities, especially diabetes and kidney diseases, is associated with symptomatic progression of knee OA. Moreover, non-OA musculoskeletal diseases may be associated with the presence and onset of ROA.

Association between High HbA1c Levels and Mast Cell Phenotype in the Infrapatellar Fat Pad of Patients with Knee Osteoarthritis. Int J Mol Sci 2024; 25:877. [PMID: 38255949 PMCID: PMC10815720 DOI: 10.3390/ijms25020877] [Citation(s) in RCA: 0] [Impact Index Per Article: 0] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Key Words] [MESH Headings] [Grants] [Track Full Text] [Journal Information] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 12/13/2023] [Revised: 01/02/2024] [Accepted: 01/09/2024] [Indexed: 01/24/2024] Open
Abstract
Diabetes mellitus (DM) has been suggested as a potential risk factor for knee osteoarthritis (KOA), and its underlying mechanisms remain unclear. The infrapatellar fat pad (IPFP) contributes to OA through inflammatory mediator secretion. Mast cells' (MCs) role in diabetic IPFP pathology is unclear. In 156 KOA patients, hemoglobin A1c (HbA1c) was stratified (HbA1c ≥ 6.5, n = 28; HbA1c < 6.5, n = 128). MC markers (TPSB2, CPA3) in IPFP were studied. Propensity-matched cohorts (n = 27 each) addressed demographic differences. MC-rich fraction (MC-RF) and MC-poor fraction (MC-PF) were isolated, comparing MC markers and genes elevated in diabetic skin-derived MC (PAXIP1, ARG1, HAS1, IL3RA). TPSB2 and CPA3 expression were significantly higher in HbA1c ≥ 6.5 vs. <6.5, both before and after matching. MC-RF showed higher TPSB2 and CPA3 expression than MC-PF in both groups. In the HbA1c ≥ 6.5 group, PAXIP1 and ARG1 expression were significantly higher in the MC-RF than MC-PF. However, no statistical difference in the evaluated genes was detected between the High and Normal groups in the MC-RF. Elevated TPSB2 and CPA3 levels in the IPFP of high HbA1c patients likely reflect higher numbers of MCs in the IPFP, though no difference was found in MC-specific markers on a cell-to-cell basis, as shown in the MC-RF comparison. These findings deepen our understanding of the intricate interplay between diabetes and KOA, guiding targeted therapeutic interventions.

Abstract
Although aging has traditionally been viewed as the most important risk factor for osteoarthritis (OA), an increasing amount of epidemiological evidence has highlighted the association between metabolic abnormalities and OA, particularly in younger individuals. Metabolic abnormalities, such as obesity and type II diabetes, are strongly linked to OA, and they affect both weight-bearing and non-weight-bearing joints, thus suggesting that the pathogenesis of OA is more complicated than the mechanical stress induced by overweight. This review aims to explore the recent advances in research on the relationship between metabolic abnormalities and OA risk, including the impact of abnormal glucose and lipid metabolism, the potential pathogenesis and targeted therapeutic strategies.

Abstract
The relation between obesity and osteoarthritis (OA) development has been traditionally explained as consequence of the excessive joint effort derived of overweight. However, in the last two decades a metabolic OA has been suggested through diverse molecular mechanism implying metabolic syndrome, although more investigation must be conducted to elucidate it. Metabolic syndrome is responsible of the release of diverse inflammatory cytokines, specially the increased adipokine in obesity, causing a chronic low-grade inflammatory status that alters the joint homeostasis. In this scenario, the microbiota dysbiosis contribute by worsening the low-grade chronic inflammation or causing metabolic disorders mediated by endotoxemia generated by an increased lipopolysaccharides intake. This results in joint inflammation and cartilage degradation, which contributes to the development of OA. Also, the insulin resistance provoked by type 2 Diabetes contributes to the OA development. When intake patterns are considered, some coincidences can be pointed between the food patterns associated to the metabolic syndrome and the food patterns associated to OA development. Therefore, these coincidences support the idea of a molecular mechanism of the OA development caused by the molecular mechanism generated under the metabolic syndrome status. This review points the relation between metabolic syndrome and OA, showing the connected molecular mechanisms between both pathologies as well as the shared dietary patterns that promote or prevent both pathologies.

Abstract
Osteoarthritis (OA) is the most common joint disorder, with a social and financial burden that is expected to increase in the coming years. Currently, there are no effective medications to treat it. Due to limited treatment options, patients often resort to supplements, such as collagen hydrolysates (CHs). CHs are products with low molecular weight (MW) peptides, often between 3 and 6 kDa, and are a result of industrialized processed collagen. Collagen extraction is often a by-product of the meat industry, with the main source for collagen-based products being bovine, although it can also be obtained from porcine and piscine sources. CHs have demonstrated positive results in clinical trials related to joint health, such as decreased joint pain, increased mobility, and structural joint improvements. The bioactivity of CHs is primarily attributed to their bioactive peptide (BAP) content. However, there are significant knowledge gaps regarding the digestion, bioavailability, and bioactivity of CH-derived BAPs, and how different CH products compare in that regard. The present review discusses CHs and their BAP content as potential treatments for OA.

Effects of different obesogenic diets on joint integrity, inflammation and intermediate monocyte levels in a rat groove model of osteoarthritis. Front Physiol 2023; 14:1211972. [PMID: 37520829 PMCID: PMC10372350 DOI: 10.3389/fphys.2023.1211972] [Citation(s) in RCA: 0] [Impact Index Per Article: 0] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Key Words] [Grants] [Track Full Text] [Figures] [Journal Information] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 04/25/2023] [Accepted: 07/05/2023] [Indexed: 08/01/2023] Open
Abstract
Introduction: Obesogenic diets aggravate osteoarthritis (OA) by inducing low-grade systemic inflammation, and diet composition may affect OA severity. Here, we investigated the effect of diet on joint damage and inflammation in an OA rat model. Methods: Wistar-Han rats (n = 24) were fed a chow, a high-fat (HF) diet, or a high-fat/high-sucrose (HFS) for 24 weeks. OA was induced unilaterally 12 weeks after the diet onset by groove surgery, and compared to sham surgery or no surgical intervention (contralateral limb). Knee OA severity was determined by OARSI histopathology scoring system. At several timepoints monocyte populations were measured using flow cytometry, and joint macrophage response was determined via CD68 immunohistochemistry staining. Results: Groove surgery combined with HF or HFS diet resulted in higher OARSI scores, and both HF and HFS diet showed increased circulating intermediate monocytes compared to chow fed rats. Additionally, in the HFS group, minimal damage by sham surgery resulted in an increased OARSI score. HFS diet resulted in the largest metabolic dysregulation, synovial inflammation and increased CD68 staining in tibia epiphysis bone marrow. Conclusion: Obesogenic diets resulted in aggravated OA development, even with very minimal joint damage when combined with the sucrose/fat-rich diet. We hypothesize that diet-induced low-grade inflammation primes monocytes and macrophages in the blood, bone marrow, and synovium, resulting in joint damage when triggered by groove OA inducing surgery. When the metabolic dysregulation is larger, as observed here for the HFS diet, the surgical trigger required to induce joint damage may be smaller, or even redundant.

Abstract
Cells in the body are exposed to dynamic external and internal environments, many of which cause cell damage. The cell's response to this damage, broadly called the stress response, is meant to promote survival and repair or remove damage. However, not all damage can be repaired, and sometimes, even worse, the stress response can overtax the system itself, further aggravating homeostasis and leading to its loss. Aging phenotypes are considered a manifestation of accumulated cellular damage and defective repair. This is particularly apparent in the primary cell type of the articular joint, the articular chondrocytes. Articular chondrocytes are constantly facing the challenge of stressors, including mechanical overloading, oxidation, DNA damage, proteostatic stress, and metabolic imbalance. The consequence of the accumulation of stress on articular chondrocytes is aberrant mitogenesis and differentiation, defective extracellular matrix production and turnover, cellular senescence, and cell death. The most severe form of stress-induced chondrocyte dysfunction in the joints is osteoarthritis (OA). Here, we summarize studies on the cellular effects of stressors on articular chondrocytes and demonstrate that the molecular effectors of the stress pathways connect to amplify articular joint dysfunction and OA development.

Abstract
Diabetes mellitus (DM) and osteoarthritis (OA) are chronic noncommunicable diseases that affect millions of people worldwide. OA and DM are prevalent worldwide and associated with chronic pain and disability. Evidence suggests that DM and OA coexist within the same population. The coexistence of DM in patients with OA has been linked to the development and progression of the disease. Furthermore, DM is associated with a greater degree of osteoarthritic pain. Numerous risk factors are common to both DM and OA. Age, sex, race, and metabolic diseases (e.g., obesity, hypertension, and dyslipidemia) have been identified as risk factors. These risk factors (demographics and metabolic disorder) are associated with DM or OA. Other possible factors may include sleep disorders and depression. Medications for metabolic syndromes might be related to the incidence and progression of OA, with conflicting results. Given the growing body of evidence indicating a relationship between DM and OA, it is vital to analyze, interpret, and integrate these findings. Therefore, the purpose of this review was to evaluate the evidence on the prevalence, relationship, pain, and risk factors of both DM and OA. The research was limited to knee, hip, and hand OA.

Abstract
OBJECTIVE Osteoarthritis (OA) has recently been suggested to be associated with diabetes. However, this association often disappears when accounting for body mass index (BMI), suggesting that mechanical stress may be a confounding factor. We investigated the combined influence of glucose level and loading stress on OA progression using a novel whole joint-in-motion (JM) culture system. DESIGN Whole mouse knee joints were placed in an enclosed chamber with culture media and actuated to recapitulate leg movement, with a dynamic stress regimen of 0.5 Hz, 8 h/day for 7 days. These joints were treated with varying levels of glucose and controlled for osmolarity and diffusion. Joint movement and joint space were examined by X-ray fluoroscopy and microCT. Cartilage matrix levels were quantified by blinded Mankin scoring and immunohistochemistry. RESULTS Culturing in the JM device facilitated proper leg extension and flexion movements, and adequate mass transport for analyzing the effect of glucose on cartilage. Treatment with higher levels of glucose either via media supplementation or intra-articular injection caused a significant decrease in levels of glycosaminoglycan (GAG) and an increase in aggrecan neoepitope in articular cartilage, but only under dynamic stress. Additionally, collagen II level was slightly reduced by high glucose levels. CONCLUSIONS High levels of glucose and dynamic stress have permissive effects on articular cartilage GAG loss and aggrecan degradation, implicating that mechanical stress confounds the association of diabetes with OA. The JM device supports novel investigation of mechanical stress on the integrity of an intact living mouse joint to provide insights into OA pathogenesis.

Abstract
Osteoarthritis (OA) is a common and debilitating joint disorder that leads to progressive joint breakdown and loss of articular cartilage. Accompanied by a state of low-grade inflammation, its etiology extends beyond that of a wear-and-tear disease, and the immune system might have a role in its initiation and progression. Obesity, which is directly associated with an increased incidence of OA, alters adipokine release, increases pro-inflammatory macrophage activity, and affects joint immune regulation. Studying inflammatory macrophage expression and strategies to inhibit inflammatory macrophage phenotype polarization might provide insights into disease pathogenesis and therapeutic applications. In pre-clinical studies, the detection of OA in its initial stages was shown to be possible using imaging techniques such as SPECT-CT, and advances are made to detect OA through blood-based biomarker analysis. In this review, obesity-induced osteoarthritis and its mechanisms in inducing joint degeneration are summarized, along with an analysis of the current developments in patient imaging and biomarker use for diagnostic and therapeutic strategies.

Zheng J, Huang X, Huang J, Meng B, Li F, Liu H, Chen L, Zhou R, Zou M, Wu X. Association of Diabetes Mellitus Status and Hyperglycemia With Symptomatic Knee Osteoarthritis. Arthritis Care Res (Hoboken) 2023; 75:509-518. [PMID: 35225437 DOI: 10.1002/acr.24872] [Citation(s) in RCA: 7] [Impact Index Per Article: 7.0] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Track Full Text] [Journal Information] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 09/24/2021] [Revised: 02/12/2022] [Accepted: 02/22/2022] [Indexed: 02/05/2023]
Abstract
OBJECTIVE Emerging evidence indicates that hyperglycemia has an adverse impact on the knee joint which, in turn, may increase the risk of knee osteoarthritis (OA), but evidence from the real-life settings of large-scale cohort studies remains unclear. We sought to evaluate the association of glycemic control and the risk of symptomatic knee OA in a community-based cohort of older adults. METHODS We conducted a prospective analysis of 10,730 participants without knee OA. Comprehensive blood biomarker data were obtained. Diabetes mellitus (DM) was defined mainly using a glycosylated hemoglobin (HbA1c ) level of ≥6.5%; poor glycemic control in individuals with DM was defined as an HbA1c level of ≥7%. We fit Cox regression models, stratified according to DM status. We evaluated the hazards associated with HbA1c and fasting blood glucose levels using a spline model. RESULTS During a median follow-up of 5 years, knee OA developed in 1,089 participants (108 with DM and 971 without). Knee OA was related to DM (hazard ratio [HR] 1.29 [95% confidence interval (95% CI) 1.02-1.78]), bad glycemic regulation in DM patients (HR 1.41 [95% CI 1.05-2.09]), and long-term DM (≥5 versus <5 years; HR 1.49 [95% CI 1.02-2.17]). High levels of HbA1c (>7.7% and 61 mmoles/mole) and fasting blood glucose (>186 mg/dl) were significantly associated with higher risk of incident knee OA. CONCLUSION DM, bad glycemic management, and long-term DM are potential risk factors of symptomatic knee OA independent of age and body mass index. Targeting blood glucose, in addition to bodyweight, may be an important avenue for prevention of knee OA.

Abstract
INTRODUCTION The association between diabetes mellitus (DM) and risk of osteoarthritis (OA) is inconsistent based on published observational studies. This study aimed to conduct a two-sample Mendelian randomization (MR) analysis to explore the causal link between glycated hemoglobin (HbA1c) level and OA risk. METHODS Genome-wide association studies (GWAS) summary statistics were obtained from the publicly available Integrative Epidemiology Unit (IEU) OpenGWAS database. A series of screening processes were performed to select qualified instrumental single-nucleotide polymorphisms (SNPs) strongly related to exposure. The inverse-variance-weighted method, weighted-median method, and MR-Egger method were performed to ensure robust and reliable results. The MR-Egger intercept test, Cochran's Q test, and the leave-one-out sensitivity analysis were utilized to assess the horizontal pleiotropy, heterogeneities, and stability of these genetic variants for OA. Odds ratio (OR) and 95% confidence interval (CI) were calculated. RESULTS MR analyses found a robust causal association of genetically determined HbA1c with knee OA (OR = 1.561; 95% CI 1.110-2.197; P = 0.011), but not with hip OA (OR = 1.073; 95% CI 0.674-1.710; P = 0.766) or overall OA (OR = 1.141; 95% CI 0.904-1.441; P = 0.804). Sensitivity analyses showed that there was a strong association between SNPs and HbA1c (F = 21.138), no evidence of heterogeneity (Q = 150.625, P = 0.402), and no potential SNPs affecting the causal link. CONCLUSION Our MR study supported a causal effect of genetically increased HbA1c on knee OA risk.

Device-measured sitting time and musculoskeletal pain in adults with normal glucose metabolism, prediabetes and type 2 diabetes-The Maastricht Study. PLoS One 2023; 18:e0285276. [PMID: 37141228 PMCID: PMC10159126 DOI: 10.1371/journal.pone.0285276] [Citation(s) in RCA: 0] [Impact Index Per Article: 0] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Track Full Text] [Journal Information] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 10/06/2022] [Accepted: 04/18/2023] [Indexed: 05/05/2023] Open
Abstract
BACKGROUND Detrimental associations of sedentary behaviour (time spent sitting) with musculoskeletal pain (MSP) conditions have been observed. However, findings on those with, or at risk of, type 2 diabetes (T2D) have not been reported. We examined the linear and non-linear associations of device-measured daily sitting time with MSP outcomes according to glucose metabolism status (GMS). METHODS Cross-sectional data from 2827 participants aged 40-75 years in the Maastricht Study (1728 with normal glucose metabolism (NGM); 441 with prediabetes; 658 with T2D), for whom valid data were available on activPAL-derived daily sitting time, MSP [neck, shoulder, low back, and knee pain], and GMS. Associations were examined by logistic regression analyses, adjusted serially for relevant confounders, including moderate-to-vigorous intensity physical activity (MVPA) and body mass index (BMI). Restricted cubic splines were used to further examine non-linear relationships. RESULTS The fully adjusted model (including BMI, MVPA, and history of cardiovascular disease) showed daily sitting time to be significantly associated with knee pain in the overall sample (OR = 1.07, 95%CI: 1.01-1.12) and in those with T2D (OR = 1.11, 95%CI: 1.00-1.22); this was not statistically significant in those with prediabetes (OR = 1.04, 95%CI: 0.91-1.18) or NGM (OR = 1.05, 95%CI: 0.98-1.13). There were no statistically significant associations between daily sitting time and neck, shoulder, or low back pain in any of the models. Furthermore, the non-linear relationships were statistically non-significant. CONCLUSION Among middle-aged and older adults with T2D, daily sitting time was significantly associated with higher odds of knee pain, but not with neck, shoulder, or low back pain. No significant association was observed in those without T2D for neck, shoulder, low back, or knee pain. Future studies, preferably those utilising prospective designs, could examine additional attributes of daily sitting (e.g., sitting bouts and domain-specific sitting time) and the potential relationships of knee pain with mobility limitations.

Diabetes-associated thigh muscle degeneration mediates knee osteoarthritis-related outcomes: results from a longitudinal cohort study. Eur Radiol 2023; 33:595-605. [PMID: 35951046 PMCID: PMC10448875 DOI: 10.1007/s00330-022-09035-4] [Citation(s) in RCA: 4] [Impact Index Per Article: 4.0] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Key Words] [MESH Headings] [Grants] [Track Full Text] [Journal Information] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 04/08/2022] [Revised: 07/01/2022] [Accepted: 07/24/2022] [Indexed: 11/04/2022]
Abstract
OBJECTIVES We examined the association between diabetes mellitus (DM) and longitudinal MRI biomarkers for thigh muscle degeneration in patients with knee osteoarthritis (KOA) and their mediatory role in worsening KOA-related symptoms. METHODS The Osteoarthritis Initiative (OAI) participants with radiographic KOA (Kellgren-Lawrence grade ≥ 2) were included. Thighs and corresponding knees of KOA patients with versus without self-reported DM were matched for potential confounders using propensity score (PS) matching. We developed and used a validated deep learning method for longitudinal thigh segmentation. We assessed the association of DM with 4-year longitudinal muscle degeneration in biomarkers of muscle cross-sectional area (CSA) and contractile percentage (non-fat CSA/total CSA). We further investigated whether DM is associated with 9-year risk of KOA radiographic progression, knee replacement (KR), and symptoms worsening. Finally, we evaluated whether the DM-KOA worsening association is mediated through preceding muscle degeneration. RESULTS After PS matching, 698 thighs/knees were included (185:513 with:without DM; average ± SD age:64 ± 8-years; female/male:1.4). Baseline DM was associated with a decreased contractile percent of total thigh muscles and quadriceps (mean difference, 95%CI -0.16%/year, -0.25 to -0.07, and -0.21%/year, -0.33 to -0.08). DM was also associated with an increased risk of worsening KOA-related symptoms (hazard ratio, 95%CI 1.70, 1.18-2.46) but not radiographic progression or KR. The decrease in quadriceps contractile percent partially mediated the increased risk of symptoms worsening in patients with DM. CONCLUSIONS Baseline DM is associated with thigh muscle degeneration and KOA-related symptoms worsening. As a potentially modifiable risk factor, DM-associated longitudinal thigh muscle degeneration may partially mediate the symptoms worsening in patients with DM and coexisting KOA. KEY POINTS • Diabetes mellitus (DM) is associated with worsening knee osteoarthritis (KOA)-related symptoms. • As a potentially modifiable factor, DM-associated thigh muscle (quadriceps) degeneration partially mediates the worsening of KOA-related symptoms.

Abstract
Background: Knee osteoarthritis (KOA) is a chronic degenerative pathology that is associated with multiple risk factors such as age, sex, obesity, or metabolic syndrome (MetS). The present clinical trial aimed to investigate the influence of the environment of origin, body mass index (BMI), and MetS parameters on the KOA differentiated degrees. Methods: 85 patients were admitted for the clinical study. The KOA presence was investigated using X-rays analysis. The Kellgren−Lawrence classification (KL) of the KOA severity and the MetS characteristic parameters using freshly collected blood were performed for each patient. All data collected were used for ANOVA statistic interpretation. Results: The total cholesterol and glycemia were found to be statistically significant (p < 0.028, and p < 0.03, respectively), with a high level in patients with severe KOA compared to healthy ones. Patients from rural regions are 5.18 times more prone to develop severe KOA when compared to ones from urban areas. Conclusions: The results of the statistical analysis confirmed the correlation between the incidence and severity of KOA and the influence of increased values of BMI, glycemia, triglycerides, and total cholesterol. The investigations revealed a statistically significant influence of the environment of origin on the KOA degree of the patients.

Abstract
Objective Metabolic factors have been shown to be associated to severe radiographic knee osteoarthritis (RKOA). However, more knowledge is needed in early clinical knee osteoarthritis (KOA). The aim was to study associations between metabolic factors and radiographic knee osteoarthritis (OA) in individuals with knee pain. A second aim was to study associations between metabolic factors and RKOA in those with normal BMI and in those overweight/obese, respectively. Method This cross-sectional study included 282 individuals with knee pain (without cruciate ligament injury) and aged 30–67 years, and 70% women. Waist circumference, body mass index (BMI), proportion of fat and visceral fat area (VFA) were assessed. RKOA was defined as Ahlbäck grade 1 in at least one knee. Fasting blood samples were taken and triglycerides, cholesterol (total, low density lipoprotein (LDL) and high density lipoprotein (HDL)), C-reactive protein (CRP), glucose, HbA1C were analysed. Metabolic syndrome was defined in accordance with the International Diabetes Federation (IDF). Associations were analysed by logistic regression. Results Individuals with RKOA were older, had higher BMI, higher VFA, larger waist circumference and had increased total cholesterol, triglycerides and LDL-cholesterol, but not fasting glucose. There was no difference between the group with RKOA vs. non-radiographic group regarding the presence of metabolic syndrome. In a subgroup analysis of individuals with normal BMI (n = 126), those with RKOA had higher VFA, more central obesity, higher levels of CRP and total cholesterol, compared with individuals without RKOA. In individuals with obesity, age was the only outcome associated to RKOA. Conclusion There were clear associations between metabolic factors and RKOA in individuals with knee pain, also in those with normal BMI. In individuals with obesity age was the only variable associated to RKOA. Trial registration: clinicalTrials.gov Identifier: NCT04928170.

Abstract
BACKGROUND Gonarthrosis and diabetes mellitus are two diseases that are increasingly being linked. The aim of this study was to quantify serum levels of Gal-3, pro- and anti-inflammatory cytokines (including their ratios and correlations), and participant's condition (pain, stiffness, functional limitations) in gonarthrosis patients with and without diabetes mellitus. METHODS A between-subject, cross-sectional experimental design was adopted. Serum levels of TNF-α, IL-6, IL-12, IL-23, IFN-γ, IL-17, IL-10, Gal-3, and WOMAC score were measured. RESULTS Gonarthrosis patients with diabetes mellitus had significantly (p < 0.05) lower levels of TNF-α, IL-6, IL-12, IL-17, IFN-γ, and Gal-3 compared to gonarthrosis patients without diabetes mellitus. On the other hand, IL-10/TNF-α, IL-10/IL-6, IL-10/IL-12, Gal-3/TNF-α, Gal-3/IL-6, and Gal-3/IL-12 (p = 0.001) were significantly higher (p < 0.05) in gonarthrosis with diabetes mellitus. Moderate-large correlation (p < 0.05) was detected between the serum values of Gal-3 and pro- and anti-inflammatory cytokines, including IL-12 (r = 0.575), IL-10 (r = 0.535), TNF-α (r = 0.306), and IL-23 (r = 0.323). WOMAC index was significantly lower (p < 0.05) in gonarthrosis patients without diabetes mellitus compared to gonarthrosis patients with diabetes mellitus. CONCLUSIONS Correlation between Gal-3 and proinflammatory cytokines and its dominance over proinflammatory cytokines implicate the potential role of Gal-3 in preventing cartilage destruction.

Abstract
Introduction Osteoarthritis is a disease with degenerative joints. There are some risk factors for osteoarthritis, including age, gender, diabetes mellitus, smoking, and hypertension. The preview study also showed a relationship between osteoarthritis and diabetes mellitus. Besides diabetes mellitus, hypertension may be a risk factor for osteoarthritis. However, research about the relationship between diabetes mellitus and hypertension based on the degree of osteoarthritis is still controversial. This study aims to determine the association between diabetes mellitus and hypertension with the severity of knee osteoarthritis in general and based on gender. Methods This research used a retrospective cross-sectional research study with a sample size of 35 patients in Orthopaedic and Traumatology in East Java, who suffered from knee osteoarthritis. Data was collected with medical records, the questionnaire, and the Kellgren & Lawrence system to assess the grade of knee osteoarthritis. Results The Chi-Square test results showed no significant relationship (p > 0.05) between diabetes mellitus and hypertension on the severity of osteoarthritis, both in general and by gender. Conclusion This study concludes that there is no association between diabetes mellitus and hypertension on the severity of knee osteoarthritis between male and female patients. The elderly (>45 years) comprised the majority of those suffering from severe knee osteoarthritis. Most females suffer from knee osteoarthritis at menopause. BMI is a strong risk factor for diabetes mellitus and osteoarthritis, particularly for weight-being joints. Hypertension is not a risk factor for knee osteoarthritis.

Abstract
Obesity remains the most important risk factor for the incidence and progression of osteoarthritis (OA). The leading cause of OA was believed to be overloading the joints due to excess weight which in turn leads to the destruction of articular cartilage. However, recent studies have proved otherwise, various other factors like adipose deposition, insulin resistance, and especially the improper coordination of innate and adaptive immune responses may lead to the initiation and progression of obesity-associated OA. It is becoming increasingly evident that multiple inflammatory cells are recruited into the synovial joint that serves an important role in pathological changes in the synovial joint. Polarization of macrophages and macrophage-produced mediators are extensively studied and linked to the inflammatory and destructive responses in the OA synovium and cartilage. However, the role of other major innate immune cells such as neutrophils, eosinophils, and dendritic cells in the pathogenesis of OA has not been fully evaluated. Although cells of the adaptive immune system contribute to the pathogenesis of obesity-induced OA is still under exploration, a quantity of literature indicates OA synovium has an enriched population of T cells and B cells compared with healthy control. The interplay between a variety of immune cells and other cells that reside in the articular joints may constitute a vicious cycle, leading to pathological changes of the articular joint in obese individuals. This review addresses obesity and the role of all the immune cells that are involved in OA and summarised animal studies and human trials and knowledge gaps between the studies have been highlighted. The review also touches base on the interventions currently in clinical trials, different stages of the testing, and their shortcomings are also discussed to understand the future direction which could help in understanding the multifactorial aspects of OA where inflammation has a significant function.

Abstract
Aim: To examine the relationship of the RETN and RARRES2 genes with hand osteoarthritis (HOA) susceptibility risk, clinical severity and pain. Methods: A total of 3740 subjects comprising 1180 participants with HOA and 2560 controls were enrolled. Genetic association was evaluated at both single marker and haplotype levels using PLINK. Results: Two significant hits, single-nucleotide polymorphism (SNP) rs4721 from RARRES2 and SNP rs3745368 from RETN, were identified as being related to an increased risk of HOA. Significant associations were obtained for SNP rs3745368 with Kellgren-Lawrence grade in HOA patients and SNP rs4721 with pain analog scales of HOA patients. Conclusion: The authors' results indicate that RARRES2 and RETN affect HOA risk and are associated with clinical features and severity in patients with HOA.

Abstract
Whether the relationship between type 2 diabetes mellitus (T2DM) and osteoarthritis (OA) can be solely attributed to the shared risk factors, such as obesity, remains controversial. Several studies have revealed the critical role of abnormal glycosylation in the pathogenesis of OA and T2DM. Therefore, we speculate that T2DM may contribute to the pathogenesis of OA through the intrinsic mechanisms of N-glycosylation aberrations. Using N-glycoproteomics, we compared the changes in N-glycosylated protein abundance in cartilage samples from patients with OA without and with T2DM (DM-OA), and from patients with traumatic joint injury (NC) as controls. We identified 847 N-glycosylation sites corresponding to 729 peptides fragments from 374 proteins. The number of N-glycosylated proteins in the DM-OA group tended to decrease compared with that in the OA and NC groups. We identified 22 upregulated and 1 down-regulated N-glycosylated peptides in the OA group compared to the NC group, while only fibronectin 1 (FN1) at position N1007, cartilage intermediate layer protein 1 (CILP) at N346, and collagen type VI alpha 1 chain (COL6A1) at N804, were also identified in the DM-OA group. Compared to the OA group, the downregulation of secreted protein acidic and rich in cysteine (SPARC) at N116, collagen type VI alpha 1 chain (COL6A2) at N785, and asporin (ASPN) at N282, and the upregulation of complement component C8 alpha chain (C8α) at N437, were the most remarkable alterations in the DM-OA group. The differentially expressed N-glycosylated proteins between the OA and DM-OA groups were mainly located extracellularly and enriched in the KEGG pathways involving PI3K/Akt signaling, focal adhesion, and ECM-receptor interaction. Their predicted protein–protein interactions were also depicted. We were thus able to show the general characteristics of N-glycosylation aberrations in OA and DM-OA. Moreover, the upregulated glycosylated complement C8α in the DM-OA group might augment membrane attack complex activity, thereby exacerbating cartilage destruction. Although further confirmation is required, our hypothesis proposes a possible explanation for the deduction that T2DM is an independent risk factor for OA.

Abstract
In traditional Chinese medicine, Herba Lysimachiae (HL) is mainly used to treat rheumatic arthralgia. Current pharmacological studies also showed that HL has therapeutic potential for synovial diseases. HL is an oral drug, whose compounds need to enter the blood circulation before reaching the injured tissue, thus potentially causing activity or toxicity to the blood system. In this study, the biolabel-led research pattern was used to analyze the serum profile after HL intervention, based on which the safety and efficacy of HL were explored. Metabonomics and proteomics were combined to analyze the biolabels responsible for the interventions of HL on serum. Bioinformatics databases were used to screen for the material basis that may interfere with biolabels. Omics analysis showed that differentially expressed 19 proteins and 5 metabolites were identified and considered as the potential biolabels, which were involved in 8 biochemical processes (platelet activation and aggregation, blood glucose release, immune and inflammatory regulation, oxidative stress, endoplasmic reticulum stress, tumor progression, blood pressure regulation, and uric acid synthesis). Thirty-one compounds may be the material basis to interfere with eleven biolabels. The present research reveals that the potential activities and toxicities of HL can be explored based on the biolabel-led research pattern.

Abstract
BACKGROUND Knee osteoarthritis was reported as the second most prevalent condition in the national musculoskeletal survey. The purpose of this extended study was to identify risk factors for knee osteoarthritis in Bangladeshi adults. METHODS This cross-sectional study was conducted in rural and urban areas of Bangladesh using stratified multistage cluster sample of 2000 adults aged 18 years or older recruited at their households. The Modified Community Oriented Program for Control of Rheumatic Disorders (COPCORD) questionnaire was used to collect data. The diagnosis of knee osteoarthritis was made using the decision tree clinical categorization criteria of the American College of Rheumatology. Univariate and multivariate logistic regression analyses were done to identify the risk factors for knee osteoarthritis. RESULTS A total of 1843 individuals (892 men and 951 women) participated, and 134 had knee osteoarthritis yielding a prevalence of 7.3% (95% confidence interval (CI) 4.9 to 9.6%). The mean (standard deviation) age of the knee osteoarthritis patients was 51.7 (11.2) years. Multivariate logistic regression analysis found a significant association with increasing age (≥38 years OR 8.9, 95% CI 4.8-16.5; ≥58 years OR 13.9, 95% CI 6.9-28.0), low educational level (OR 1.7, 95% CI 1.0-2.7) and overweight (OR 1.9, 95% CI 1.2-2.9) with knee osteoarthritis. Knee osteoarthritis patients had a high likelihood of having work loss preceding 12 months (age and sex-adjusted OR 2.3; 95% CI 1.4-3.8; P < 0.01). CONCLUSIONS Knee osteoarthritis is a commonly prevalent musculoskeletal problem among Bangladeshi adults having link to work loss. Increasing age, low education and overweight are significant risk factors of knee osteoarthritis.

Abstract
Diabetes mellitus (DM) and osteoarthritis (OA) are commonly known metabolic diseases that affect a large segment of the world population. These two conditions share several risk factors such as obesity and aging; however, there is still no consensus regarding the direct role of DM on OA development and progression. Interestingly, both animal and human studies have yielded conflicting results, with some showing a significant role for DM in promoting OA, while others found no significant interactions between these conditions. In this review, we will discuss preclinical and clinical data that assessed the interaction between DM and OA. We will also discuss possible mechanisms associated with the effect of high glucose on the articular cartilage and chondrocytes. An emerging theme dominates the breath of published work in this area: most of the studies discussed in this review do not take into consideration the role of other factors such as the type of diabetes, age, biological sex, type of animal model, body mass index, and the use of pain medications when analyzing and interpreting data. Therefore, future studies should be more rigorous when designing experiments looking at DM and its effects on OA and should carefully account for these confounding factors, so that better approaches can be developed for monitoring and treating patients at risk of OA and DM. © 2022 The Authors.

Abstract
OBJECTIVE Obesity was once considered a risk factor for knee osteoarthritis (OA) primarily for biomechanical reasons. Here we provide an additional perspective by discussing how obesity also increases OA risk by altering metabolism and inflammation. DESIGN This narrative review is presented in four sections: 1) metabolic syndrome and OA, 2) metabolic biomarkers of OA, 3) evidence for dysregulated chondrocyte metabolism in OA, and 4) metabolic inflammation: joint tissue mediators and mechanisms. RESULTS Metabolic syndrome and its components are strongly associated with OA. However, evidence for a causal relationship is context dependent, varying by joint, gender, diagnostic criteria, and demographics, with additional environmental and genetic interactions yet to be fully defined. Importantly, some aspects of the etiology of obesity-induced OA appear to be distinct between men and women, especially regarding the role of adipose tissue. Metabolomic analyses of serum and synovial fluid have identified potential diagnostic biomarkers of knee OA and prognostic biomarkers of disease progression. Connecting these biomarkers to cellular pathophysiology will require future in vivo studies of joint tissue metabolism. Such studies will help reveal when a metabolic process or a metabolite itself is a causal factor in disease progression. Current evidence points towards impaired chondrocyte metabolic homeostasis and metabolic-immune dysregulation as likely factors connecting obesity to the increased risk of OA. CONCLUSIONS A deeper understanding of how obesity alters metabolic and inflammatory pathways in synovial joint tissues is expected to provide new therapeutic targets and an improved definition of "metabolic" and "obesity" OA phenotypes.

Continuous care intervention with carbohydrate restriction improves physical function of the knees among patients with type 2 diabetes: a non-randomized study. BMC Musculoskelet Disord 2022; 23:297.

Abstract
Background In a previous study, we assessed a novel, remotely monitored carbohydrate restricted diet regimen including nutritional ketosis in patients with type 2 diabetes and reported significant improvements in weight, glycemic control, abdominal fat and inflammation from baseline to 2 years. Knee outcome measures were collected as a secondary outcome in the trial. This study aims to assess the effect of this intervention on knee functional scores and to identify if changes in weight, central abdominal fat (CAF), glycemic status and high sensitivity C-reactive protein (hsCRP) were associated with its improvement. Methods This prospective analysis included continuous care intervention (CCI, n = 173) and usual care (UC, n = 69) trial participants with type 2 diabetes that reported knee pain at baseline. Knee outcome measures included the Knee injury and Osteoarthritis Outcome Score (KOOS) pain, symptoms, activities of daily living (ADL), sports and recreation function, and knee-related quality of life subscales, and total KOOS score were assessed from baseline to 2 years. Missing data at each time point were replaced with multiple imputation under the assumption of missing at random. To assess if the primary analysis of the knee scores changed under plausible missing not at random assumptions, sensitivity analysis was also performed using pattern mixture models. In CCI, we also assessed factors associated with the improvement of knee scores. Results In the primary analysis, CCI participants demonstrated a statistically significant improvement in total KOOS and all KOOS individual subscale scores at 1 year and maintained through 2 years as opposed to UC patients who showed no significant changes from baseline to 2 years. The significant improvement in total KOOS and its individual subscale scores from baseline to 2 years remained relatively stable in CCI in the sensitivity analysis under different missing not at random scenarios confirming the robustness of the findings from the primary analysis. Approximately 46% of the CCI participants met the 10 points minimal clinically important change at 2 years. A reduction in CAF was associated with improvement in total KOOS and KOOS ADL, while a decrease in hsCRP was associated with improvement in KOOS symptoms scores. Conclusion A very low carbohydrate intervention including nutritional ketosis resulted in significant improvements in knee pain and function among patients with T2D. The improvements in knee function were likely secondary to a reduction in central adiposity and inflammation. Future research on the applicability of this intervention in radiographically confirmed OA patients is important. Trial registration Clinical trial registration: NCT02519309 (10/08/2015).

Abstract
The purpose of the present study was to assess, prospectively, the safety, clinical effectiveness, and feasibility of a single intra-articular injection of microfragmented adipose tissue in different stages of knee osteoarthritis (OA). The study included patients (aged 18−70 years), affected by OA (Kellgren−Lawrence I-IV). Unselected patients were evaluated before and prospectively after 6, 12, and 24 months from the injection. Visual analog scale (VAS) and knee injury and osteoarthritis outcome score (KOOS) were used for clinical evaluations. A total of 202 patients were eligible. The mean follow-up time in the cohort of patients was 24.5 ± 9.6 months. Total KOOS significantly improved from pre-operative baseline levels to 6-month follow-up (p < 0.001), and again between 6- and 12-month follow-ups (p < 0.001). The VAS showed a prompt reduction at 6 months (p < 0.001 vs. baseline), but then it increased again at 12 months compared to the 6-month assessment (p < 0.001), even though it remained lower than baseline (p < 0.001). At 24 months, patients with KL-IV demonstrated a lower improvement compared to baseline; patients that had undergone previous corticosteroid injections had a greater risk to further injection treatment. The collected clinical results suggest that MFAT may represent a safe and effective treatment for OA symptoms, offering a low-demanding and minimally invasive treatment.

Abstract
OBJECTIVE Metabolic syndrome is a major health problem worldwide associated with obesity, thus drawing attention to its relation to osteoarthritis (OA). However, it is still uncertain whether metabolic syndrome or body fat distribution is associated with knee OA. The aim of this longitudinal study was to elucidate the association between metabolic obesity and adverse structural changes of knee OA assessed by magnetic resonance imaging (MRI). METHODS Participants were recruited from the Hallym Aging Study cohort in Korea. Knee MRI scans, along with dual-energy X-ray absorptiometry, were assessed in 226 participants at baseline and after 3 years. The structural progression in the tibiofemoral joint was evaluated using the semi-quantitative Whole-Organ MRI Score (WORMS) for cartilage morphology and bone marrow lesions (BML). Logistic regression with generalized estimating equation was performed for associations of metabolic risk factors with worsening of WORMS scores at the subregional level. RESULTS In the medial compartment, fat mass in women was associated with cartilage loss, but the statistical significance disappeared after adjusting for body mass index. Metabolic syndrome and each of its components were not associated with cartilage loss or increase of BML. On the other hand, the interaction effects of metabolic syndrome on the association between obesity and knee OA progression were not significant. CONCLUSION In this cohort, metabolic effects of obesity on knee cartilage damage and BML were not demonstrated. Further large-scale studies are required to prove the causal relationship between metabolic obesity and knee OA.

Abstract
OBJECTIVE To assess differences in biochemical composition of the deep cartilage layer in subjects with type 2 diabetes mellitus (T2DM) and nondiabetic controls using UTE (ultra-short echo time) T2* mapping and to investigate the association of vascular health and UTE T2* measurements. DESIGN Ten subjects with T2DM matched for age, sex, and body mass index with 10 nondiabetic controls. A 3D UTE sequence with 6 echo times was acquired using 3T magnetic resonance imaging of the knee. For UTE T2* analysis, the deep cartilage layer was segmented and analyzed in 5 compartments (patella, medial, and lateral femur and tibia). The ankle brachial index (ABI) was obtained in all subjects. Linear regression analyses were used to assess associations of T2DM and UTE T2* relaxation times and the associations of ABI measurements and UTE measurements. RESULTS Compared with nondiabetic controls, T2DM subjects had significantly lower mean T2*-UTE in the patella (mean difference 4.87 ms; 95% confidence interval [CI] 1.09-8.65; P = 0.015), the lateral tibia (mean difference 2.26 ms; 95% CI 0.06-4.45; P = 0.045), and the lateral femur (mean difference 4.96 ms; 95% CI 0.19-9.73; P = 0.043). Independent of diabetic status, subjects with higher ABI values, indicating better vascular health, had higher T2*-UTE of the patella (coefficient 15.2; 95% CI 3.3-21.4; P = 0.017), the medial tibia (coefficient 9.8; 95% CI 1.0-18.6; P = 0.031), and the lateral femur (coefficient 18.8; 95% CI 3.3-34.3; P = 0.021). CONCLUSIONS T2*-UTE measurements of the deep cartilage layer were consistently lower in subjects with T2DM and in subjects with impaired vascular health, likely indicating increased mineralization of this layer.

Abstract
OBJECTIVE Obesity is a known risk factor for knee osteoarthritis (OA). Diabetes has been associated with progression of OA and metformin is the first-line treatment in type 2 diabetes. The effect of the body mass index (BMI) and metformin on the expression of certain matrix genes in human chondrocytes is unclear. The purpose of this study was to investigate the effect of BMI and metformin on the expression of matrix genes in primary human chondrocytes. DESIGN Adult female patients undergoing knee arthroplasty for end-stage OA were enrolled. Primary chondrocytes were cultivated and stimulated with metformin. Matrix gene expression was analyzed using polymerase chain reaction. Clinical data were used in multivariable regression models to assess the influence of BMI and metformin stimulation on gene expression. RESULTS A total of 14 patients were analyzed. BMI was a predictor of increased expression in ADAMTS5 (β = -0.11, P = 0.03). Metformin slightly reduced expression in ADAMTS5 (β = 0.34, P = 0.04), HIF-1a (β = 0.39, P = 0.04), IL4 (β = 0.30, P = 0.02), MMP1 (β = 0.47, P < 0.01), and SOX9 (β = 0.37, P = 0.03). The hip-knee-ankle angle and proton pump inhibitors (PPIs) intake were associated with reduced SOX9 expression (β = 0.23, P < 0.01; β = 2.39, P < 0.01). Higher C-reactive protein (CRP) levels were associated with increased MMP1 expression (β = -0.16, P = 0.02). CONCLUSION We found that BMI exerts a destructive effect via induction of ADAMTS5. Metformin reduced the expression of catabolic genes ADAMTS5 and MMP1 and might play a role in disease prevention. Limb malalignment and PPI intake was associated with a reduced expression of SOX9, and higher CRP levels correlated with increased MMP1 expression, indicating a destructive process.

Abstract
OBJECTIVE Advanced glycation end-product (AGE) accumulation is implicated in osteoarthritis (OA) pathogenesis in aging and diabetic populations. Here, we develop a representative nonenzymatic glycation-induced OA cartilage explant culture model and investigate the effectiveness of resveratrol, curcumin, and eugenol in inhibiting AGEs and the structural and biological hallmarks of cartilage degeneration. DESIGN Bovine cartilage explants were treated with AGE-bovine serum albumin, threose, and ribose to determine the optimal conditions that induce physiological levels of AGEs while maintaining chondrocyte viability. AGE crosslinks, tissue stiffness, cell viability, metabolism and senescence, nitrite release and loss of glycosaminoglycans were assessed. Explants were cotreated with resveratrol, curcumin, or eugenol to evaluate their anti-AGE properties. Blind docking analysis was conducted to estimate binding energies of drugs with collagen II. RESULTS Treatment with 100 mM ribose significantly increased AGE crosslink formation and tissue stiffness, resulting in reduced chondrocyte metabolism and enhanced senescence. Blind docking analysis revealed stronger binding energies of both resveratrol and curcumin than ribose, with glycation sites along a human collagen II fragment, indicating their increased likelihood of competitively inhibiting ribose activity. Resveratrol and curcumin, but not eugenol, successfully inhibited AGE crosslink formation and its associated downstream biological response. CONCLUSIONS We establish a cartilage explant model of OA that recapitulates several aspects of aged human cartilage. We find that resveratrol and curcumin are effective anti-AGE therapeutics with the potential to decelerate age-related and diabetes-induced OA. This in vitro nonenzymatic glycation-induced model provides a tool for screening OA drugs, to simultaneously evaluate AGE-induced biological and mechanical changes.

Abstract
Since their discovery in 2006, induced pluripotent stem cells (iPSCs) have shown promising potential, specifically because of their accessibility and plasticity. Hence, the clinical applicability of iPSCs was investigated in various fields of research. However, only a few iPSC studies pertaining to osteoarthritis (OA) have been performed so far, despite the high prevalence rate of degenerative joint disease. In this review, we discuss some of the most recent applications of iPSCs in disease modeling and the construction of 3D models in various fields, specifically focusing on osteoarthritis and OA-related conditions. Notably, we comprehensively reviewed the successful results of iPSC-derived disease models in recapitulating OA phenotypes for both OA and early-onset OA to encompass their broad etiology. Moreover, the latest publications with protocols that have used iPSCs to construct 3D models in recapitulating various conditions, particularly the OA environment, were further discussed. With the overall optimistic results seen in both fields, iPSCs are expected to be more widely used for OA disease modeling and 3D model construction, which could further expand OA drug screening, risk assessment, and therapeutic capabilities.

Abstract
Purpose: The aim of this study was to evaluate the protective effect of conditioned medium derived from human adipose mesenchymal stem cells (CM-hADSCs) on C28I2 chondrocytes against oxidative stress and mitochondrial apoptosis induced by high glucose (HG).
Methods: C28I2 cells were pre-treated with CM-hADSCs for 24 hours followed by HG exposure (75 mM) for 48 hours. MTT assay was used to assess the cell viability. Reactive oxygen species (ROS) and lipid peroxidation were determined by 2,7-dichlorofluorescein diacetate (DCFHDA) and thiobarbituric acid reactive substances (TBARS) assays, respectively. Expressions of glutathione peroxidase 3 (GPX 3), heme oxygenase-1 (HO-1), and NAD(P)H quinone dehydrogenase 1 (NQO1) were analyzed by RT-PCR. Finally, western blot analysis was used to measure Bax, Bcl-2, cleaved caspase-3, and Nrf-2 expression at protein levels.
Results: CM-hADSCs pretreatment mitigated the cytotoxic effect of HG on C28I2 viability. Treatment also markedly reduced the levels of ROS, lipid peroxidation, and augmented the expression of HO-1, NQO1, and GPx3 genes in HG-exposed group. CM-ADSCs enhanced Nrf-2 protein expression and reduced mitochondrial apoptosis through reducing Bax/Bcl-2 ratio and Caspase-3 activation.
Conclusion: MSCs, probably through its paracrine effects, declined the deleterious effect of HG on chondrocytes. Hence, therapies based on MSCs secretomes appear to be a promising therapeutic approaches to prevent joint complications in diabetic patients.

Abstract
Osteoarthritis (OA), the most common form of arthritis, is associated with metabolic diseases and gut microbiome dysbiosis. OA patients often take supplements of collagen hydrolysates (CHs) with a high peptide content. Following digestion, some peptides escape absorption to induce prebiotic effects via their colonic fermentation to generate short-chain fatty acids (SCFAs), branched-chain fatty acids (BCFAs) and colonic gases (NH4 and H2S). The capacity of CHs to generate microbial metabolites is unknown. Proteomic analysis of two CHs (CH-GL and CH-OPT) demonstrated different native peptide profiles with increased peptide diversity after in vitro gastric and small intestinal digestion. Subsequent 24 h fermentation of the CH digests in a dynamic gastrointestinal (GI) digestion model containing human fecal matter showed that CH-OPT increased (p < 0.05) H2S, SCFAs (propionic, butyric and valeric acids), BCFAs, and decreased NH4 in the ascending colon reactor with no major changes seen with CH-GL. No major effects were observed in the transverse and descending vessels for either CH. These findings signify that CHs can induce prebiotic effects in the ascending colon that are CH dependent. More studies are needed to determine the physiological significance of CH-derived colonic metabolites, in view of emerging evidence connecting the gut to OA and metabolic diseases.

Abstract
We aimed to explore the relationship between comorbidities and the structural progression in symptomatic knee and/or hip osteoarthritis (OA) patients. We analyzed the 5-year outcome of non-obese participants (body mass index (BMI) < 30 kg/m2) from the KHOALA cohort having symptomatic hip and/or knee OA (Kellgren and Lawrence (KL) ≥ 2). The primary endpoint was radiological progression, defined as ΔKL ≥ 1 of the target joint at 5 years. The secondary outcome was the incidence of total knee or hip replacement over 5 years. Dichotomous logistic regression models assessed the relationship of comorbidities with KL progression and joint replacement while controlling for gender, age and BMI. Data from 384 non-obese participants were analyzed, 151 with hip OA and 254 with knee OA. At 5 years, cardiovascular diseases (CVD) were significantly associated with the 5-year KL change in both knee (OR = 2.56 (1.14–5.78), p = 0.02) and hip OA (OR = 3.45 (1.06–11.17), p = 0.04). No significant relationship was found between any type of comorbidities and knee or hip arthroplasty. This 5-year association between CVD and radiological progression of knee and hip OA in non-obese participants argue for an integrated management of CVD in knee and hip OA non-obese patients.

Abstract
Objective To explore the possible way of proline‐serine–threonine phosphatase‐interacting protein 2 (PSTPIP2) influencing diabetes mellitus‐osteoarthritis (DM‐OA) progression. Methods In vivo, eight‐week‐old male Sprague Dawley rats were induced with DM‐OA by intraperitoneal injection of streptozotocin with high‐fat diet feeding and intra‐articular injection of monoiodoacetate. PSTPIP2 overexpression was achieved by intra‐articular injection of lentivirus vectors. PSTPIP2 expression was verified by real‐time polymerase chain reaction and Western blotting. Histological changes were examined by hematoxylin/eosin and safranin‐O/fast‐green staining. In vitro, rat synovial fibroblasts were induced DM‐OA by stimulation of high glucose (HG) and interleukin (IL)‐1β. PSTPIP2 overexpression was achieved by lentivirus infection. U0126 was added as an ERK inhibitor. Levels of tumor necrosis factor (TNF)‐α, IL‐6, and IL‐1β were detected using enzyme‐linked immunosorbent assay. Expression of matrix metalloproteinase (MMP)‐3, MMP‐13, aggrecanase‐2 (ADAMTS‐5), intercellular cell adhesion molecule (ICAM)‐1, extracellular regulated protein kinase (ERK) and phospho‐ERK (p‐ERK) was detected by Western blotting. Results In DM‐OA rats, PSTPIP2 relative messenger RNA (mRNA) level was significantly decreased compared to control rats. The protein expression was also decreased obviously. Inflammation score in synovium was dramatically increased, accompanying with increased TNF‐α, IL‐6, and IL‐1β levels. Osteoarthritis research society international (OARSI) score in cartilage was markedly increased, along with increased MMP‐3, MMP‐13, ADAMTS‐5, ICAM‐1, ERK and p‐ERK expression. In PSTPIP2‐overexpressed DM‐OA rats, PSTPIP2 mRNA level and protein expression was increased compared to DM‐OA rats received negative‐control lentivirus vectors. The inflammation score, as well as TNF‐α, IL‐6, and IL‐1β levels were dramatically decreased. Also, the OARSI score and protein expression of MMP‐3, MMP‐13, ADAMTS‐5, ICAM‐1, ERK and p‐ERK were decreased. In HG+IL‐1β‐treated rat synovial fibroblasts, PSTPIP2 protein expression was decreased compared to normal glucose (NG)‐treated cells. Levels of TNF‐α, IL‐6, and IL‐1β, as well as expression of MMP‐3, MMP‐13, ADAMTS‐5, ICAM‐1, ERK and p‐ERK were increased. After cells were infected with PSTPIP2‐overexpressed lentivirus, levels of TNF‐α, IL‐6, and IL‐1β, and expression of MMP‐3, MMP‐13, ADAMTS‐5, ICAM‐1, ERK and p‐ERK were obviously decreased compared to cells infected with NC lentivirus. In addition, ERK inhibitor U0126 treatment also decreased the TNF‐α, IL‐6, and IL‐1βlevels and MMP‐3, MMP‐13, ADAMTS‐5, ICAM‐1, ERK and p‐ERK expression in HG + IL‐1β treated rat synovial fibroblasts. Conclusion Overexpression of PSTPIP2 alleviates synovial inflammation and cartilage injury during DM‐OA progression via inhibiting ERK phosphorylation.

INTERNATIONAL JOURNAL OF ENVIRONMENTAL RESEARCH AND PUBLIC HEALTH 2021; 18:4414. [PMID: 33919455 PMCID: PMC8122394 DOI: 10.3390/ijerph18094414] [Citation(s) in RCA: 2] [Impact Index Per Article: 0.7] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Key Words] [MESH Headings] [Track Full Text] [Download PDF] [Figures] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 03/09/2021] [Revised: 03/30/2021] [Accepted: 04/16/2021] [Indexed: 12/29/2022]
Abstract
BACKGROUND This study examined the association between baseline gait speed with incident diabetes mellitus (DM) among people with or at elevated risk for knee OA. MATERIALS AND METHODS Participants from the Osteoarthritis Initiative, aged 45 to 79 years, where included. Participants with or at risk of knee OA from baseline to the 96-month visit were included. Participants with self-reported DM at baseline were excluded. DM incidence was followed over the 4-time points. Gait speed was measured at baseline using a 20-m walk test. Generalized estimating equations with logistic regression were utilized for analyses. Receiver operator characteristic curves and area under the curve were used to determine the cutoff score for baseline speed. RESULTS Of the 4313 participants included in the analyses (58.7% females), 301 participants had a cumulative incidence of DM of 7.0% during follow-up. Decreased gait speed was a significant predictor of incident DM (RR 0.44, p = 0.018). The threshold for baseline gait speed that predicted incident DM was 1.32 m/s with an area under the curve of 0.59 (p < 0.001). CONCLUSIONS Baseline gait speed could be an important screening tool for identifying people at risk of incident diabetes, and the determined cutoff value for gait speed should be examined in future research.

[PMID: 32060073 PMCID: PMC7046958 DOI: 10.1136/rmdopen-2019-001030] [Citation(s) in RCA: 22] [Impact Index Per Article: 7.3] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Key Words] [Track Full Text] [Download PDF] [Figures] [Journal Information] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 06/11/2019] [Revised: 12/18/2019] [Accepted: 12/21/2019] [Indexed: 12/22/2022] Open
Abstract
BACKGROUND Association between diabetes mellitus (DM) and risk of osteoarthritis (OA) can be confounded by body mass index (BMI), a strong risk factor for both conditions. We evaluate the association between DM or hyperglycaemia with OA using systematic review and meta-analysis. METHODS We searched PubMed and Web of Science databases in English for studies that gave information on the association between DM and OA. Two meta-analysis models were conducted to address: (1) risk of DM comparing subjects with and without OA and (2) risk of OA comparing subjects with and without DM. As far as available, risk estimates that adjusted for BMI were used. RESULTS 31 studies with a pooled population size of 295 100 subjects were reviewed. 16 and 15 studies reported positive associations and null/ negative associations between DM and OA. 68.8% of positive studies had adjusted for BMI, compared with 93.3% of null/negative studies. In meta-analysis model 1, there was an increase prevalence of DM in subjects with OA compared with those without (OR 1.56, 95% CI 1.28 to 1.89). In meta-analysis model 2, there was no increased risk of OA (OR 1.14, 95% CI 0.98 to 1.33) in subjects with DM compared with those without, regardless of gender and OA sites. Comparing subjects with DM to those without, an increased risk of OA was noted in cross-sectional studies, but not in case-control and prospective cohort studies. CONCLUSIONS This meta-analysis does not support DM as an independent risk factor for OA. BMI was probably the most important confounding factor.

Abstract
BACKGROUND Articular cartilage is an extremely specialized connective tissue which covers all diarthrodial joints. Implantation of chondrogenic cells without or with additional biomaterial scaffolds in ectopic locationsin vivo generates substitutes of cartilage with structural and functional characteristics that are used in fundamental investigations while also serving as a basis for translational studies. METHODS Literature search in Pubmed. RESULTS AND DISCUSSION This narrative review summarizes the most relevant ectopic models, among which subcutaneous, intramuscular, and kidney capsule transplantation and elaborates on implanted cells and biomaterial scaffolds and on their use to recapitulate morphological and functional features of articular cartilage. Although the absence of a physiological joint environment and biomechanical stimuli is the major limiting factor, ectopic models are an established component for articular cartilage research aiming to generate a bridge between in vitro data and the clinically more relevant translational orthotopic in vivo models when their limitations are considered.

Abstract
OBJECTIVE Diabetes mellitus (DM) appears to increase osteoarthritic knee pain, which may be related to greater adiposity and more advanced disease status often observed in individuals with osteoarthritis (OA) and DM. We aimed to assess whether OA knee pain and health status are worse in individuals with OA and DM, independent of these potential confounders. METHODS We included 202 OA participants with DM and 2,279 without DM from the Osteoarthritis Initiative. Knee pain was evaluated using the Knee Injury and Osteoarthritis Outcome Score (KOOS) and a numeric rating scale (NRS). Physical and mental status were assessed by the Medical Outcomes Study Short Form 12 (SF-12) questionnaire, physical component summary (PCS) score and mental component summary (MCS) score, and by the Center for Epidemiologic Studies Depression Scale (CES-D). Linear regression models assessed the influence of DM, adjusted for age, sex, body mass index (BMI), and radiographic severity. RESULTS OA participants with DM reported worse knee pain and greater physical and mental issues compared with participants without DM. Individuals with DM had worse KOOS pain (β = -4.72 [95% confidence interval (95% CI) -7.22, -2.23]) and worse NRS pain (β = 0.42 [95% CI 0.04, 0.80]) independent of BMI, OA severity, age, and sex. The negative influence of DM was also apparent for SF-12 PCS (β = -3.49 [95% CI -4.73, -2.25]), SF-12 MCS (β = -1.42 [95% CI -2.57, -0.26]), and CES-D (β = 1.08 [95% CI 0.08, 2.08]). CONCLUSION Individuals with knee OA experience on average higher pain intensity and a worse physical and mental health status if they have DM. Linear regression models show that DM is a risk factor for higher pain, in addition to and independent of greater BMI and radiographic OA severity.
