Zhou JP, Peng SS, Xu J, Cheng XW, Wang XH, Tao JL, Dai HW, Cao X. Exploring the therapeutic potential of urine-derived stem cell exosomes in temporomandibular joint osteoarthritis. FASEB J 2024; 38:e23852. [PMID: 39101942 DOI: 10.1096/fj.202400448rr] [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: 02/28/2024] [Revised: 07/15/2024] [Accepted: 07/21/2024] [Indexed: 08/06/2024]
Abstract
Temporomandibular joint osteoarthritis (TMJOA) is a degenerative ailment that causes slow cartilage degeneration, aberrant bone remodeling, and persistent discomfort, leading to a considerable reduction in the patient's life quality. Current treatment options for TMJOA have limited efficacy. This investigation aimed to explore a potential strategy for halting or reversing the progression of TMJOA through the utilization of exosomes (EXOs) derived from urine-derived stem cells (USCs). The USC-EXOs were obtained through microfiltration and ultrafiltration techniques, followed by their characterization using particle size analysis, electron microscopy, and immunoblotting. Subsequently, an in vivo model of TMJOA induced by mechanical force was established. To assess the changes in the cartilage of TMJOA treated with USC-EXOs, we performed histology analysis using hematoxylin-eosin staining, immunohistochemistry, and histological scoring. Our findings indicate that the utilization of USC-EXOs yields substantial reductions in TMJOA, while concurrently enhancing the structural integrity and smoothness of the compromised condylar cartilage surface. Additionally, USC-EXOs exhibit inhibitory effects on osteoclastogenic activity within the subchondral bone layer of the condylar cartilage, as well as attenuated apoptosis in the rat TMJ in response to mechanical injury. In conclusion, USC-EXOs hold considerable promise as a potential therapeutic intervention for TMJOA.

Abstract
Temporomandibular joint osteoarthritis (TMJOA) is considered to be a low-grade inflammatory disease involving multiple joint tissues. The crosstalk between synovium and cartilage plays an important role in TMJOA. Synovial cells are a group of heterogeneous cells and synovial microenvironment is mainly composed of synovial fibroblasts (SF) and synovial macrophages. In TMJOA, SF and synovial macrophages release a large number of inflammatory cytokines and extracellular vesicles and promote cartilage destruction. Cartilage wear particles stimulate SF proliferation and macrophages activation and exacerbate synovitis. In TMJOA, chondrocytes and synovial cells exhibit increased glycolytic activity and lactate secretion, leading to impaired chondrocyte matrix synthesis. Additionally, the synovium contains mesenchymal stem cells, which are the seed cells for cartilage repair in TMJOA. Co-culture of chondrocytes and synovial mesenchymal stem cells enhances the chondrogenic differentiation of stem cells. This review discusses the pathological changes of synovium in TMJOA, the means of crosstalk between synovium and cartilage, and their influence on each other. Based on the crosstalk between synovium and cartilage in TMJOA, we illustrate the treatment strategies for improving synovial microenvironment, including reducing cell adhesion, utilizing extracellular vesicles to deliver biomolecules, regulating cellular metabolism and targeting inflammatory cytokines.

Abstract
Fracture non-unions affect many patients worldwide, however, known risk factors alone do not predict individual risk. The identification of novel biomarkers is crucial for early diagnosis and timely patient treatment. This study focused on the identification of microRNA (miRNA) related to the process of fracture healing. Serum of fracture patients and healthy volunteers was screened by RNA sequencing to identify differentially expressed miRNA at various times after injury. The results were correlated to miRNA in the conditioned medium of human bone marrow mesenchymal stromal cells (BMSCs) during in vitro osteogenic differentiation. hsa-miR-1246, hsa-miR-335-5p, and miR-193a-5p were identified both in vitro and in fracture patients and their functional role in direct BMSC osteogenic differentiation was assessed. The results showed no influence of the downregulation of the three miRNAs during in vitro osteogenesis. However, miR-1246 may be involved in cell proliferation and recruitment of progenitor cells. Further studies should be performed to assess the role of these miRNA in other processes relevant to fracture healing.

A quick and innovative pipeline for producing chondrocyte-homing peptide-modified extracellular vesicles by three-dimensional dynamic culture of hADSCs spheroids to modulate the fate of remaining ear chondrocytes in the M1 macrophage-infiltrated microenvironment. J Nanobiotechnology 2024; 22:300. [PMID: 38816719 PMCID: PMC11141023 DOI: 10.1186/s12951-024-02567-5] [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: 01/28/2024] [Accepted: 05/16/2024] [Indexed: 06/01/2024] Open
Abstract
BACKGROUND Extracellular vesicles (EVs) derived from human adipose-derived mesenchymal stem cells (hADSCs) have shown great therapeutic potential in plastic and reconstructive surgery. However, the limited production and functional molecule loading of EVs hinder their clinical translation. Traditional two-dimensional culture of hADSCs results in stemness loss and cellular senescence, which is unfavorable for the production and functional molecule loading of EVs. Recent advances in regenerative medicine advocate for the use of three-dimensional culture of hADSCs to produce EVs, as it more accurately simulates their physiological state. Moreover, the successful application of EVs in tissue engineering relies on the targeted delivery of EVs to cells within biomaterial scaffolds. METHODS AND RESULTS The hADSCs spheroids and hADSCs gelatin methacrylate (GelMA) microspheres are utilized to produce three-dimensional cultured EVs, corresponding to hADSCs spheroids-EVs and hADSCs microspheres-EVs respectively. hADSCs spheroids-EVs demonstrate excellent production and functional molecule loading compared with hADSCs microspheres-EVs. The upregulation of eight miRNAs (i.e. hsa-miR-486-5p, hsa-miR-423-5p, hsa-miR-92a-3p, hsa-miR-122-5p, hsa-miR-223-3p, hsa-miR-320a, hsa-miR-126-3p, and hsa-miR-25-3p) and the downregulation of hsa-miR-146b-5p within hADSCs spheroids-EVs show the potential of improving the fate of remaining ear chondrocytes and promoting cartilage formation probably through integrated regulatory mechanisms. Additionally, a quick and innovative pipeline is developed for isolating chondrocyte homing peptide-modified EVs (CHP-EVs) from three-dimensional dynamic cultures of hADSCs spheroids. CHP-EVs are produced by genetically fusing a CHP at the N-terminus of the exosomal surface protein LAMP2B. The CHP + LAMP2B-transfected hADSCs spheroids were cultured with wave motion to promote the secretion of CHP-EVs. A harvesting method is used to enable the time-dependent collection of CHP-EVs. The pipeline is easy to set up and quick to use for the isolation of CHP-EVs. Compared with nontagged EVs, CHP-EVs penetrate the biomaterial scaffolds and specifically deliver the therapeutic miRNAs to the remaining ear chondrocytes. Functionally, CHP-EVs show a major effect on promoting cell proliferation, reducing cell apoptosis and enhancing cartilage formation in remaining ear chondrocytes in the M1 macrophage-infiltrated microenvironment. CONCLUSIONS In summary, an innovative pipeline is developed to obtain CHP-EVs from three-dimensional dynamic culture of hADSCs spheroids. This pipeline can be customized to increase EVs production and functional molecule loading, which meets the requirements for regulating remaining ear chondrocyte fate in the M1 macrophage-infiltrated microenvironment.

Abstract
An imbalance between M1 and M2 macrophage polarization is critical in osteoarthritis (OA) development. We investigated the effect of M2 macrophage-derived extracellular vesicles (M2-EVs) to reprogramme macrophages from the M1 to M2 phenotype for OA treatment. M1 macrophages and mouse OA models were treated with M2-EVs. Proteomic analysis was performed to evaluate macrophage polarization in vitro. The OA models were as follows: destabilization of the medial meniscus (DMM) surgery-induced OA and collagenase-induced OA (CIOA). Hyaluronic acid (HA) was used to deliver M2-EVs. M2-EVs decreased macrophage accumulation, repolarized macrophages from the M1 to M2 phenotype, mitigated synovitis, reduced cartilage degradation, alleviated subchondral bone damage, and improved gait abnormalities in the CIOA and DMM models. Moreover, HA increased the retention time of M2-EVs and enhanced the efficiency of M2-EVs in OA treatment. Furthermore, proteomic analysis demonstrated that M2-EVs exhibited a macrophage reprogramming ability similar to IL-4, and the pathways might be the NOD-like receptor (NLR), TNF, NF-κB, and Toll-like receptor (TLR) signaling pathways. M2-EVs reprogrammed macrophages from the M1 to M2 phenotype, which resulted in beneficial effects on cartilage and attenuation of OA severity. In summary, our study indicated that M2-EV-guided reprogramming of macrophages is a promising treatment strategy for OA.

Abstract
Osteoarthritis (OA) is a low-grade, nonspecific inflammatory disease that affects the entire joint. This condition is characterized by synovitis, cartilage erosion, subchondral bone defects, and subpatellar fat pad damage. There is mounting evidence demonstrating the significance of crosstalk between synovitis and cartilage destruction in the development of OA. To comprehensively explore the phenotypic alterations of synovitis and cartilage destruction, it is important to elucidate the crosstalk mechanisms between chondrocytes and synovial cells. Furthermore, the updated iteration of single-cell sequencing technology reveals the interaction between chondrocyte and synovial cells. In the present review, the histological and pathological alterations between cartilage and synovium during OA progression are described, and the mode of interaction and molecular mechanisms between synovial cells and chondrocytes in OA, both of which affect the OA process mainly by altering the inflammatory environment and cellular state, are elucidated. Finally, the current OA therapeutic approaches are summarized and emerging therapeutic targets are reviewed in an attempt to provide potential insights into OA treatment.

Abstract
OBJECTIVE High-density lipoprotein (HDL) has well-characterized anti-atherogenic cholesterol efflux and antioxidant functions. Another function of HDL uncharacterized in rheumatoid arthritis (RA) is its ability to transport microRNAs (miRNAs) between cells and thus alter cellular function. The study's purpose was to determine if HDL-miRNA cargo is altered and affects inflammation in RA. METHODS HDL-microRNAs were characterized in 30 RA and 30 control participants by next generation sequencing and quantitative polymerase chain reaction. The most abundant differentially expressed miRNA was evaluated further. The function of miR-1246 was assessed by miRNA mimics, antagomiRs, small interfering RNA knockdown, and luciferase assays. Monocyte-derived macrophages were treated with miR-1246-loaded HDL and unmodified HDL from RA and control participants to measure delivery of miR-1246 and its effect on interleukin-6 (IL-6). RESULTS The most abundant miRNA on HDL was miR-1246; it was significantly enriched two-fold on HDL from RA versus control participants. HDL-mediated miR-1246 delivery to macrophages significantly increased IL6 expression 43-fold. miR-1246 delivery significantly decreased DUSP3 1.5-fold and DUSP3 small interfering RNA knockdown increased macrophage IL6 expression. Luciferase assay indicated DUSP3 is a direct target of miR-1246. Unmodified HDL from RA delivered 1.6-fold more miR-1246 versus control participant HDL. Unmodified HDL from both RA and control participants attenuated activated macrophage IL6 expression, but this effect was significantly blunted in RA so that IL6 expression was 3.4-fold higher after RA versus control HDL treatment. CONCLUSION HDL-miR-1246 was increased in RA versus control participants and delivery of miR-1246 to macrophages increased IL-6 expression by targeting DUSP3. The altered HDL-miRNA cargo in RA blunted HDL's anti-inflammatory effect.

Abstract
Exosomes are the smallest subset of extracellular signaling vesicles secreted by most cells with the ability to communicate with other tissues and cell types over long distances. Their use in regenerative medicine has gained tremendous momentum recently due to their ability to be utilized as therapeutic options for a wide array of diseases/conditions. Over 5000 publications are currently being published yearly on this topic, and this number is only expected to dramatically increase as novel therapeutic strategies continue to be developed. Today exosomes have been applied in numerous contexts including neurodegenerative disorders (Alzheimer's disease, central nervous system, depression, multiple sclerosis, Parkinson's disease, post-traumatic stress disorders, traumatic brain injury, peripheral nerve injury), damaged organs (heart, kidney, liver, stroke, myocardial infarctions, myocardial infarctions, ovaries), degenerative processes (atherosclerosis, diabetes, hematology disorders, musculoskeletal degeneration, osteoradionecrosis, respiratory disease), infectious diseases (COVID-19, hepatitis), regenerative procedures (antiaging, bone regeneration, cartilage/joint regeneration, osteoarthritis, cutaneous wounds, dental regeneration, dermatology/skin regeneration, erectile dysfunction, hair regrowth, intervertebral disc repair, spinal cord injury, vascular regeneration), and cancer therapy (breast, colorectal, gastric cancer and osteosarcomas), immune function (allergy, autoimmune disorders, immune regulation, inflammatory diseases, lupus, rheumatoid arthritis). This scoping review is a first of its kind aimed at summarizing the extensive regenerative potential of exosomes over a broad range of diseases and disorders.

Abstract
OBJECTIVES Innate immunity plays a significant role in the pathogenesis of temporomandibular joint osteoarthritis (TMJOA), which is characterized by synovial inflammation and condylar cartilage degradation. We are urged to investigate the impact of Resatorvid, a preventative drug that inhibits Toll-like receptor 4 (TLR4), on experimental inflammatory TMJOA pathology. METHODS An intra-articular injection of complete Freund's adjuvant (CFA) was used to induce an experimental inflammatory mouse TMJOA model, and TLR4 expression was identified by immunofluorescent labeling. Intraperitoneal injections of Resatorvid were administered to CFA-induced TMJOA mice, and the pathology of TMJOA animals with and without Resatorvid treatment was examined by H&E, Safranin-O/Fast Green, and TRAP staining, as well as micro-CT, immunohistochemistry, and immunofluorescence. The impact of Resatorvid on chondrocyte pyroptosis and macrophage inflammation was further investigated using ATDC5 chondrocytes and RAW264.7 macrophages pretreated with relevant antagonists. RESULTS CFA-induced TMJOA mice revealed remarkable synovial inflammation, together with a time course of cartilage degradation and bone destruction, with TLR4 elevated in the synovium and condylar cartilage. Prophylactic treatment with Resatorvid mitigated synovial inflammation, cartilage degeneration, and bone destruction in CFA-induced TMJOA mice and downregulated MyD88/NF-κB expression. Ex vivo studies demonstrated that Resatorvid treatment alleviated NOD-like receptor protein 3 (NLRP3)-mediated chondrocyte pyroptosis and degeneration and relieved macrophage inflammation by preventing reactive oxygen species (ROS) production through NLRP3 signaling. CONCLUSION Prophylactic treatment with Resatorvid alleviates TMJOA pathology by inhibiting chondrocyte pyroptosis and degeneration, as well as ROS-induced macrophage inflammation, through TLR4/MyD88/NF-κB/NLRP3.

Luo P, Du M, Sun Q, Zhao T, He H. IL-38 suppresses macrophage M1 polarization to ameliorate synovial inflammation in the TMJ via GLUT-1 inhibition. Int Immunopharmacol 2023; 122:110619. [PMID: 37463548 DOI: 10.1016/j.intimp.2023.110619] [Citation(s) in RCA: 0] [Impact Index Per Article: 0] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Key Words] [MESH Headings] [Track Full Text] [Journal Information] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 01/16/2023] [Revised: 06/25/2023] [Accepted: 07/05/2023] [Indexed: 07/20/2023]
Abstract
OBJECTIVES Interleukin (IL)-38 was discovered as an anti-inflammatory factor. However, IL-38's role in M1 macrophage polarization in the temporomandibular joint (TMJ) and the related mechanism are still unclear. We aimed to explore the effect and the mechanism of IL-38 on synovial inflammation in the TMJ in this study. METHODS The expression of IL-38 in the TMJ synovium and macrophages was determined using immunohistochemistry (IHC) and Western blotting (WB). M1 macrophage polarization was induced by LPS, the macrophages were pre-treated with IL-38, and the levels of inflammatory markers associated with M1 macrophages were measured. To assess the mechanism of IL-38, small-interfering RNA (siRNA)-GLUT-1 and STF31 were administered to macrophages, and the affected pathways were identified by WB. The effect of macrophage-conditioned medium (CM) on chondrocyte function was also determined. Finally, a mouse model of CFA-induced TMJ inflammation was established. Histological staining and IHC were used to determine the effect of IL-38. RESULTS IL-38 was detected at high levels in macrophages after lipopolysaccharide (LPS)challenge, and IL-38 downregulated M1 macrophage-related proinflammatory markers (iNOS, IL-6, TNF-α, and COX-2) in vitro. IL-38 suppressed M1 polarization by inhibiting GLUT-1 expression, NF-κB signaling, and MAPK signaling. Intriguingly, CM from macrophages that were pretreated with IL-38 and STF31 decreased inflammatory protein expression in chondrocytes. In addition, intra-articular injection of recombinant IL-38 ameliorated synovial inflammation in the TMJ by inhibiting M1 macrophage polarization and suppressing cartilage inflammation in vivo. CONCLUSIONS IL-38 is a novel anti-inflammatory factor that contributes to alleviating TMJ inflammation by inhibiting macrophage M1 polarization, thereby ameliorating chondrocyte inflammation and restoring TMJ homeostasis.

Abstract
Temporomandibular joint osteoarthritis (TMJ OA) is a progressive degenerative disease of the temporomandibular joint (TMJ). The unclear etiology and mechanisms of TMJ OA bring great difficulties to early diagnosis and effective treatment, causing enormous burdens to patients' life and social economics. In this narrative review, we summarized the main pathological changes of TMJ OA, including inflammatory responses, degeneration of extracellular matrix (ECM), abnormal cell biological behaviors (apoptosis, autophagy, and differentiation) in TMJ tissue, and aberrant angiogenesis. All pathological features are closely linked to each other, forming a vicious cycle in the process of TMJ OA, which results in prolonged disease duration and makes it difficult to cure. Various molecules and signaling pathways are involved in TMJ OA pathogenesis, including nuclear factor kappa-B (NF-κB), mitogen-activated protein kinases (MAPKs), extracellular regulated protein kinases (ERKs) and transforming growth factor (TGF)-β signaling pathways et al. One molecule or pathway can contribute to several pathological changes, and the crosstalk between different molecules and pathways can further lead to a complicated condition TMJ OA. TMJ OA has miscellaneous etiology, complex clinical status, depressed treatment results, and poor prognosis. Therefore, novel in-vivo and in-vitro models, novel medicine, materials, and approaches for therapeutic procedures might be helpful for further investigation of TMJ OA. Furthermore, the role of genetic factors in TMJ OA needs to be elucidated to establish more reasonable and effective clinical strategies for diagnosing and treating TMJ OA.

Exosomes from Inflamed Macrophages Promote the Progression of Parkinson's Disease by Inducing Neuroinflammation. Mol Neurobiol 2023; 60:1914-1928.

Abstract
Inflammation is a common feature both for Parkinson's disease (PD) and obesity-associated metabolic syndromes. Inflammation mediated by inflamed macrophages in white adipose tissue plays a pivotal role for the pathogenesis of metabolic syndromes. Exosomes are important carriers connecting peripheral tissues and the central nervous system (CNS). Therefore, we speculate that exosomes derived from inflamed macrophages may be involved in the pathological progression of PD. Here, we prepared exosomes from lipopolysaccharide (LPS) or interferon gamma (IFNγ) treated macrophages (inflamed macrophages) and examined their potential roles in PD. Our data showed that exosomes from inflamed macrophages stimulate proinflammatory cytokine expression in primary microglia and astrocytes. In vivo, inflamed macrophage exosomes induce behavioral defects in mice as evidenced by shortened duration in the rotarod test and prolonged latency in the pole test. The treatment of exosomes also reduces tyrosine hydroxylase (TH) positive cells in the substantia nigra pars compacta (SNpc) and striatum. All these PD-like phenotypes are likely due to the activation of microglia and astrocytes induced by exosomes from inflamed macrophages. Exosome sequencing, together with bioinformatics analysis and functional studies, revealed that exosomal miRNAs such as miR-155-5p are likely a key factor for inducing an inflammatory response in glial cells. These results indicate that exosomes derived from inflamed macrophages are likely a causative factor for developing PD. In this regard, inflamed macrophage exosomes might be a linker transducing the peripheral tissue inflammation into the CNS.

Abstract
M2 macrophages-derived extracellular vesicles (M2-EVs) serve as a tool for the delivery of miRNAs and play an anti-inflammatory role in diseases. This study sought to explore the role of (M2-EVs) in the proliferation and inflammatory responses of IL-1β-stimulated chondrocytes. M2 macrophages were induced and characterized, followed by isolation and characterization of M2-EVs. Chondrocytes were treated with 10 ng/mL IL-1β and co-cultured with M2 macrophages transfected with Cy3-labeled miR-370-3p. Cell viability, TNF (tumor necrosis factor)-α, IL(Interleukin)-18, IL-10, miR-370-3p, and sex-determining region Y-related high-mobility-group box transcription factor 11 (SOX11) mRNA were determined via cell counting assay kit, colony formation, ELISA, and qRT-PCR. The binding relationship between miR-370-3p and SOX11 was testified via the dual-luciferase assay. The functional rescue experiment was designed to confirm the role of SOX11. M2-EVs improved chondrocyte viability and colony formation, lowered TNF-α and IL-18, and elevated IL-10. M2-EVs delivered miR-370-3p into chondrocytes to upregulate miR-370-3p. Upregulation of miR-370-3p in M2-EVs enhanced the protective role of M2-EVs in chondrocytes. miR-370-3p inhibited SOX11 transcription. SOX11 overexpression attenuated the protective role of M2-EVs in chondrocytes. Overall, our findings suggested that M2-EVs promote proliferation and suppress inflammatory responses in IL-1β-stimulated chondrocytes via the miR-370-3p/SOX11 axis.

Abstract
Orthodontic tooth movement relies on bone remodeling and periodontal tissue regeneration in response to the complicated mechanical cues on the compressive and tensive side. In general, mechanical stimulus regulates the expression of mechano-sensitive coding and non-coding genes, which in turn affects how cells are involved in bone remodeling. Growing numbers of non-coding RNAs, particularly mechano-sensitive non-coding RNA, have been verified to be essential for the regulation of osteogenesis and osteoclastogenesis and have revealed how they interact with signaling molecules to do so. This review summarizes recent findings of non-coding RNAs, including microRNAs and long non-coding RNAs, as crucial regulators of gene expression responding to mechanical stimulation, and outlines their roles in bone deposition and resorption. We focused on multiple mechano-sensitive miRNAs such as miR-21, - 29, -34, -103, -494-3p, -1246, -138-5p, -503-5p, and -3198 that play a critical role in osteogenesis function and bone resorption. The emerging roles of force-dependent regulation of lncRNAs in bone remodeling are also discussed extensively. We summarized mechano-sensitive lncRNA XIST, H19, and MALAT1 along with other lncRNAs involved in osteogenesis and osteoclastogenesis. Ultimately, we look forward to the prospects of the novel application of non-coding RNAs as potential therapeutics for tooth movement and periodontal tissue regeneration.

Abstract
Both hair follicle stem cells (HFSC) and dermal papilla cells (DPC) are essential for hair follicle growth and proliferation. In this study, HFSCs and DPCs that made signature proteins like KRT14, KRT15, KRT19, α-SMA, and Versican were obtained. Cell coculture systems between HFSCs and DPCs were used to measure the increased PCNA protein content in HFSCs. Additionally, exosomes from dermal papilla cells (DPC-Exos), the overexpression and silencing of Wnt3a, could regulate the Wnt/β-catenin signaling pathway downstream genes. After collecting DPC-ExosOE-Wnt3a, the treatment of HFSC with DPC-ExosOE-Wnt3a showed that DPC-ExosOE-Wnt3a could upregulate the mRNA expression of downstream genes in the Wnt/β-catenin signaling pathway and that DPC-ExosOE-Wnt3a enhanced the proliferation of HFSCs while inhibiting their apoptosis. These findings suggest that DPC-Exos could regulate HFSC cell proliferation via the Wnt3a/β-catenin signaling pathway. This research offers novel concepts for the molecular breeding and efficient production of Angora rabbits, as well as for the treatment of human hair problems.

Abstract
Osteoarthritis (OA) is a highly prevalent whole-joint disease that causes disability and pain and affects a patient's quality of life. However, currently, there is a lack of effective early diagnosis and treatment. Although stem cells can promote cartilage repair and treat OA, problems such as immune rejection and tumorigenicity persist. Extracellular vesicles (EVs) can transmit genetic information from donor cells and mediate intercellular communication, which is considered a functional paracrine factor of stem cells. Increasing evidences suggest that EVs may play an essential and complex role in the pathogenesis, diagnosis, and treatment of OA. Here, we introduced the role of EVs in OA progression by influencing inflammation, metabolism, and aging. Next, we discussed EVs from the blood, synovial fluid, and joint-related cells for diagnosis. Moreover, we outlined the potential of modified and unmodified EVs and their combination with biomaterials for OA therapy. Finally, we discuss the deficiencies and put forward the prospects and challenges related to the application of EVs in the field of OA.

Abstract
Chronic inflammation is implicated in numerous human pathologies. In particular, low-grade inflammation is currently recognized as an important mechanism of osteoarthritis (OA), at least in some patients. Among the signs of the inflammatory process are elevated macrophage numbers detected in the OA synovium compared to healthy controls. High macrophage counts also correlate with clinical symptoms of the disease. Macrophages are central players in the development of chronic inflammation, pain, cartilage destruction, and bone remodeling. However, macrophages are also involved in tissue repair and remodeling, including cartilage. Therefore, reduction of macrophage content in the joints correlates with deleterious effects in OA models. Macrophage population is heterogeneous and dynamic, with phenotype transitions being induced by a variety of stimuli. In order to effectively use the macrophage inflammatory circuit for treatment of OA, it is important to understand macrophage heterogeneity and interactions with surrounding cells and tissues in the joint. In this review, we discuss functional phenotypes of macrophages and specific targeting approaches relevant for OA treatment development.

Abstract
An imbalance in bone homeostasis results in bone loss and poor healing in bone diseases and trauma. Osteoimmune interactions, as a key contributor to bone homeostasis, depend on the crosstalk between mesenchymal stem cell-osteoblast (MSC-OB) and monocyte-macrophage (MC-Mφ) lineages. Currently, extracellular vesicles (EVs) are considered to be involved in cell-to-cell communication and represent a novel avenue to enhance our understanding of bone homeostasis and to develop novel diagnostic and therapeutic options. In this comprehensive review, we aim to present recent advances in the study of the effect of MC-Mφ-derived EVs on osteogenesis and the regulatory effects of MSC-OB-derived EVs on the differentiation, recruitment and efferocytosis of Mφ. Furthermore, we discuss the role of EVs as crucial mediators of the communication between these cell lineages involved in the development of common bone diseases, with a focus on osteoporosis, osteoarthritis, bone fracture, and periodontal disease. Together, this review focuses on the apparent discrepancies in current research findings and future directions for translating fundamental insights into clinically relevant EV-based therapies for improving bone health.

Abstract
Osteoarthritis (OA) is a whole joint disease characterized by synovitis, cartilage destruction, and subchondral bone sclerosis and cyst. Despite decades’ study, effective treatment is rare for this chronic disease. Extracellular vesicles (EVs), including exosomes, microvesicles, and apoptosis bodies, are nano-sized vesicles with a cargo containing biologically active agents, such as nucleic acids, lipids, and proteins. As a group of short non-coding RNAs, microRNAs (miRNAs) can be delivered by parental cells secreted EVs. Negatively regulate the target mRNAs at the posttranscriptional level and regulate gene expression in recipient cells without modifying gene sequence. Recently, most studies focused on the function of EVs mediated miRNAs in the pathophysiological process of OA. However, all kinds of EVs specific and OA specific factors might influence the administration of EVs-miRNAs, especially the precise quantitative management. As a result, the flourishing of current research about EVs in the laboratory might not promote the relevant clinical transformation in OA treatment. In this review, we reviewed the present application of EVs-miRNAs in the therapeutic of OA and further analyzed the potential factors that might influence its application. Further progress in the quantitative management of EVs-miRNAs would accelerate the clinical transformation of miRNAs enriched EVs in the OA field.

Abstract
AIM To explore the relationship between long non-coding RNAs (lncRNAs) and immune response and to construct an immune-related competing endogenous RNA (ceRNA) network in periodontitis. MATERIALS AND METHODS Gene expression profiles in gingival tissues were acquired from the Gene Expression Omnibus database. Bioinformatic analysis was performed to establish an immune-related ceRNA network. Subsequently, functional enrichment analysis was performed to detect the biological processes in which the ceRNA network might be involved. RESULTS A combined classification model involving seven lncRNAs was constructed. Receiver operating characteristic curve analysis showed satisfactory classification ability of the established model. Further analysis revealed that the screened lncRNAs were significantly correlated with patient immunity. Finally, an immune-related ceRNA network was constructed based on the lncRNA MIAT, miR-1246, miR-1260b, miR-3652, miR-4286, and 27 mRNAs. Accordingly, functional enrichment analysis demonstrated that this network is closely related to the proliferation, differentiation, and activation of B cells. CONCLUSIONS The lncRNA MIAT and the MIAT-based ceRNA network may be instrumental in regulating the immune response, especially of B cells, during the progression of periodontitis.

Abstract
Osteoarthritis (OA) is a degenerative joint disease that affects the entire joint and has been a tremendous burden on the health care system worldwide. Although cell therapy has made significant progress in the treatment of OA and cartilage regeneration, there are still a series of problems. Recently, more and more evidence shows that extracellular vesicles (EVs) play an important role in the progression and treatment of OA. Here, we discuss that EVs from different cell sources not only participate in OA progression, but can also be used as effective tools for the diagnosis and treatment of OA. In addition, cell pretreatment strategies and EV tissue engineering play an increasingly prominent role in the field of OA treatment. This article will systematically review the latest developments in these areas. As stated above, it may provide new insights for improving OA and cartilage regeneration.

Abstract
The disruption of bone homeostasis with the decrease in osteoblastic bone formation and facilitated osteoclastic bone resorption is the leading cause of periprosthetic osteolysis. Accumulative studies have indicated that irisin has the function of maintaining and rebalancing bone homeostasis. In this study, we explored the protective effect of irisin on wear-particle-induced osteolysis in mice. The results showed that irisin effectively inhibited titanium (Ti) particle-induced calvarial osteolysis, supported by a lower bone loss and existence of more collagen, compared with the ones stressed by Ti particles. Further analysis demonstrated that irisin not only rescued Ti-particle-impaired osteogenesis derived from bone mesenchymal stem cells (BMSCs) but also alleviated the increase in wear-particle-induced nuclear factor-κB ligand (RANKL) secreted by BMSCs-derived osteoblasts, which consequently restrained the activation of osteoclasts. Meanwhile, irisin inhibited osteoclastogenesis by the direct inactivation of reactive oxygen species (ROS) signaling. These results revealed that irisin functions to fight against osteolysis caused by wear particles through rebalancing the periprosthetic bone homeostasis microenvironment, which may provide a potential therapeutic strategy for the management of osteolysis and induced prosthetic loosening.
