Abstract
Extracellular vesicles (EVs) are important mediators of cell-to-cell communication in the extracellular space. These membranous nanoparticles carry various molecules, often referred to as "cargo," which are delivered to nearby target cells. In the past decade, developments in nanotechnology have allowed for various new laboratory techniques for the increased utilization of EVs in cellular and animal studies. Such techniques have evolved for the isolation, characterization, and delivery of EVs to biological tissues. This emerging technology has immense clinical potential for both diagnostic and therapeutic applications. Various EV cargo molecules, including DNA, RNA, and proteins, can act as pathological biomarkers. Furthermore, EVs derived from certain cell sources have shown therapeutic benefit in certain pathologies. In addition to their native therapeutic benefit, EVs can be engineered to carry and selectively deliver therapeutic agents. While EVs have gained increasing interest in various pathologies, few studies have compiled their clinical potential in musculoskeletal pathologies. To bridge this gap, we present an overview of EVs, introduce current laboratory preparation techniques, and outline the most recent literature regarding the potential therapeutic applications of EVs in musculoskeletal pathologies.

[PMID: 37175749 PMCID: PMC10178745 DOI: 10.3390/ijms24098041] [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: 03/19/2023] [Revised: 04/24/2023] [Accepted: 04/26/2023] [Indexed: 05/15/2023] Open
Abstract
Stroke is the second leading cause of death in the world. Approximately 80% of strokes are ischemic in origin. Many risk factors have been linked to stroke, including an increased level of plasminogen activator inhibitor-1 (PAI-1). PAI-1 levels increase and remain elevated in blood during the acute phase of ischemic stroke, which can impair fibrinolytic activity, leading to coronary artery disease and arterial thrombotic disorders. Here, we present a case-control study of 574 stroke patients and 425 controls seen for routine health examination or treatment for nonspecific dizziness, nonorganic headache, or anxiety for positive family history of stroke at the Bundang Medical Center in South Korea. Polymorphisms in PAI-1 were identified by polymerase chain reaction/restriction fragment length polymorphism analysis using genomic DNA. Specifically, three variations (-675 4G>5G, 10692T>C, and 12068G>A) were linked to a higher overall prevalence of stroke as well as a higher prevalence of certain stroke subtypes. Haplotype analyses also revealed combinations of these variations (-844G>A, -675 4G>5G, 43G>A, 9785A>G, 10692T>C, 11053T>G, and 12068G>A) that were significantly associated with a higher prevalence of ischemic stroke. To the best of our knowledge, this is the first strong evidence that polymorphic sites in PAI-1 promoter and 3'-UTR regions are associated with higher ischemic stroke risk. Furthermore, the PAI-1 genotypes and haplotypes identified here have potential as clinical biomarkers of ischemic stroke and could improve the prognosis and future management of stroke patients.

Abstract
Non-traumatic osteonecrosis of the femoral head (ONFH) relies on multiple pathogenic factors, including intravascular coagulation, osteoporosis and lipid metabolism disorders. Despite extensively explored from various aspects, genetic mechanism underlying non-traumatic ONFH has not been fully elucidated. We randomly collected blood and necrotic tissue samples from 32 patients with non-traumatic ONFH as well as blood samples from 30 healthy individuals for whole exome sequencing (WES). Germline mutation and somatic mutation were analyzed to identify new potential pathogenic genes responsible for non-traumatic ONFH. Three genes might correlate with non-traumatic ONFH: VWF, MPRIP (germline mutations) and FGA (somatic mutations). Germline or somatic mutations in VWF, MPRIP and FGA correlate with intravascular coagulation, thrombosis, and consequently, ischemic necrosis of the femoral head.

Abstract
Background Nontraumatic osteonecrosis of the femoral head (ONFH) can be corticosteroid-induced, alcohol-induced, and idiopathic ONFH (IONFH). Although corticosteroid- and alcohol-induced ONFH has been investigated extensively regarding its relationship with blood lipids and coagulation factor levels. However, the effect of blood lipid metabolism and coagulation function on IONFH has rarely been studied. Therefore, this study aimed to analyse the relationship of IONFH with blood lipid and coagulation indicators. Methods Total 680 patients diagnosed with IONFH in our institution during January 2011-June 2019 who met the inclusion criteria composed the case group; 613 healthy persons who underwent physical examination at our institution during the same period composed the control group. Propensity scores were used for baseline feature matching, and two matching groups each with 450 patients were established. After the matching, blood lipid and coagulation factor levels of both groups were comparatively analysed. Results The case group showed significantly higher total cholesterol (TC), triglyceride (TG), low-density lipoprotein (LDL) levels, low-density/high-density lipoprotein (LDL/HDL) ratio, and apolipoprotein B (Apo-B) levels than the control group (p < 0.05). Conversely, the HDL and apolipoprotein A (Apo-AI) levels in the case group were significantly lower than those in the control group (p < 0.05). Regarding coagulation indicators, the activated partial thromboplastin time and prothrombin time were lower in the case group than in the control group; however, the differences were insignificant (p > 0.05). Furthermore, fibrinogen (FIB) levels and thrombin time (TT) in the case group were higher than those in the control group. There were significant differences between the two groups only in terms of FIB levels (p < 0.05), while TT was not significantly different (p > 0.05). Conclusions IONFH has strong associations with blood lipid metabolism and coagulation function, which provide an avenue for exploring the mechanism of IONFH.

Abstract
INTRODUCTION Atraumatic ONFH is one of the leading cause of hip morbidity in the working-age group. It is a multi-factorial disease whose root cause can be attributed to single-nucleotide polymorphism. Identifying such polymorphisms could pave the way for new modalities of treatment for ONFH. METHODOLOGY Two databases were electronically searched for relevant articles. The articles were screened through titles, abstract and full texts to include the relevant studies. A secondary search was done through the reference list of selected articles. RESULTS A total of 52 studies were included among the 181 hits. All 181 were case-control studies. Summary of these studies identifies multiple SNPs which can cause ONFH. There were 117 SNPs in all 181 studies, of which 92 were associated with the causation of ONFH and 25 were protective against ONFH. CONCLUSION SNPs play an essential role in causing atraumatic ONFH. Identification of SNP that contribute to causing ONFH may help reduce the disease burden by early identification, diagnosis and treatment, including targeted gene therapy.

A Network Pharmacology and Molecular Docking Strategy to Explore Potential Targets and Mechanisms Underlying the Effect of Curcumin on Osteonecrosis of the Femoral Head in Systemic Lupus Erythematosus. BIOMED RESEARCH INTERNATIONAL 2021; 2021:5538643. [PMID: 34557547 PMCID: PMC8455200 DOI: 10.1155/2021/5538643] [Citation(s) in RCA: 5] [Impact Index Per Article: 1.7] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Track Full Text] [Download PDF] [Figures] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 02/18/2021] [Accepted: 08/06/2021] [Indexed: 11/25/2022]
Abstract
Background Systemic lupus erythematosus (SLE) is a refractory immune disease, which is often complicated with osteonecrosis of the femoral head (ONFH). Curcumin, the most active ingredient of Curcuma longa with a variety of biological activities, has wide effects on the body system. The study is aimed at exploring the potential therapeutic targets underlying the effect of curcumin on SLE-ONFH by utilizing a network pharmacology approach and molecular docking strategy. Methods Curcumin and its drug targets were identified using network analysis. First, the Swiss target prediction, GeneCards, and OMIM databases were mined for information relevant to the prediction of curcumin targets and SLE-ONFH-related targets. Second, the curcumin target gene, SLE-ONFH shared gene, and curcumin-SLE-ONFH target gene networks were created in Cytoscape software followed by collecting the candidate targets of each component by R software. Third, the targets and enriched pathways were examined by Gene Ontology (GO) and Kyoto Encyclopedia of Genes and Genomes (KEGG) pathway enrichment analysis. Eventually, a gene-pathway network was constructed and visualized by Cytoscape software; key potential central targets were verified and checked by molecular docking and literature review. Results 201 potential targets of curcumin and 170 related targets involved in SLE-ONFH were subjected to network analysis, and the 36 intersection targets indicated the potential targets of curcumin for the treatment of SLE-ONFH. Additionally, for getting more comprehensive and accurate candidate genes, the 36 potential targets were determined to be analyzed by network topology and 285 candidate genes were obtained finally. The top 20 biological processes, cellular components, and molecular functions were identified, when corrected by a P value ≤ 0.05. 20 related signaling pathways were identified by KEGG analysis, when corrected according to a Bonferroni P value ≤ 0.05. Molecular docking showed that the top three genes (TP53, IL6, VEGFA) have good binding force with curcumin; combined with literature review, some other genes such as TNF, CCND1, CASP3, and MMP9 were also identified. Conclusion The present study explored the potential targets and signaling pathways of curcumin against SLE-ONFH, which could provide a better understanding of its effects in terms of regulating cell cycle, angiogenesis, immunosuppression, inflammation, and bone destruction.

Abstract
Osteonecrosis of the femoral head (ONFH) is a debilitating disease with major social and economic impacts. It frequently affects relatively young adults and has a predilection for rapid progression to femoral head collapse and end-stage hip arthritis. If not diagnosed and treated properly in the early stages, ONFH has devastating consequences and leads to mandatory total hip arthroplasty. The pathophysiology of non-traumatic ONFH is very complex and not fully understood. While multiple risk factors have been associated with secondary ONFH, there are still many cases in which a clear etiology cannot be established. Recognition of the prothrombotic state as part of the etiopathogeny of primary ONFH provides an opportunity for early medical intervention, with implications for both prophylaxis and therapy aimed at slowing or stopping the progression of the disease. Hereditary thrombophilia and hypofibrinolysis are associated with thrombotic occlusion of bone vessels. Anticoagulant treatment can change the natural course of the disease and improve patients' quality of life. The present work focused on highlighting the association between hereditary thrombophilia/hypofibrinolysis states and ONFH, emphasizing the importance of identifying this condition. We have also provided strong arguments to support the efficiency and safety of anticoagulant treatment in the early stages of the disease, encouraging etiological diagnosis and prompt therapeutic intervention. In the era of direct oral anticoagulants, new therapeutic options have become available, enabling better long-term compliance.

Abstract
BACKGROUND Osteonecrosis (ON) is one of the major therapy-related complications in childhood acute lymphoblastic leukemia (ALL). The purpose of the current study is to assess the frequency of ON in children with ALL and to detect whether polymorphisms in vitamin D receptor gene (VDR) and plasminogen activator inhibitor-1 (PAI-1) gene can affect the risk of ON. PATIENTS AND METHODS Nighty-six ALL children were enrolled. Serum 25-hydroxyvitamin D 25(OH)D levels were performed in addition to the detection of polymorphisms in PAI-1and VDR genes by polymerase chain reaction. RESULTS Ten out of 96 patients had ON (four males and six females aged above 10 years) and had an insufficient level of 25(OH)D. Fifty-two percent of patients had PAI-1 GG genotype while 48% had PAI-1 GA genotype. PAI-1 polymorphism was detected in 60% of all ON cases. The frequencies of VDR genotypes were CT (56.3%), CC (39.6%), and TT (4.2%). Osteonecrosis was found in eight patients with CC genotype and in two patients with CT genotype. CONCLUSION Osteonecrosis can develop early during the therapy of ALL. Older age and insufficient level of 25(OH)D were considered important risk factor for the development of osteonecrosis. PAT-1 and VDR gene polymorphism may be a genetic risk factor in its pathogenesis.

Abstract
PURPOSE Plasminogen activator inhibitor 1 (PAI-1) is a critical enzyme that regulates coagulation and fibrinolytic systems. The aim of this study was to determine the role of PAI-1 4G/5G polymorphism in nontraumatic avascular necrosis of the lunate. METHODS The study included 45 patients with Kienböck disease and 45 healthy individuals as a control group. In both groups, genomic DNA was extracted from peripheral blood samples to determine the distributions of PAI-1 4G/5G polymorphism using allele-specific polymerase chain reaction and sequencing. RESULTS No statistically significant difference was determined in the distribution of the gene polymorphism between the patient and control groups. We found the 5G/5G genotype to be 1.7 times higher in the control group compared with the patient group. A 1.6-fold increase in the 4G homozygote genotype was identified in the patient group. The patient and control groups were also evaluated for 4G/4G plus 4G/5G and 5G/5G in terms of genotype distribution. No statistically significant difference was found. CONCLUSIONS The findings suggest that the PAI-1 4G/4G polymorphism is not a genetic risk for Kienböck disease. CLINICAL RELEVANCE This study aimed to reveal the genetic etiology of Kienböck disease.

Abstract
Background Alcohol-induced osteonecrosis of the femoral head (ONFH) is caused by the interaction of genetic and environmental factors. Genetic variations of matrix metalloproteinase (MMP) system are associated with ONFH development and progression. In this study, we aimed to evaluate the relationships between MMP20 gene polymorphisms and the risk of alcohol-induced ONFH in Chinese Han males. Material/Methods In this case-control study, genotypes of 14 selected SNPs in the MMP20 gene were assayed using MassARRAY in 299 male cases with alcohol-induced ONFH and in 197 healthy males. Odds ratios (ORs) and 95% confidence intervals (CIs) were calculated to assess the influence of gene polymorphism on occurrence of alcohol-induced ONFH by allelic model analysis, genotype model analysis and haplotype analysis. Results After allelic model analysis, the minimum alleles of rs10895322, rs1784424, rs3781788, and rs1573954 correlated with an increased risk of alcohol-induced ONFH (P<0.05). Genetic model analysis revealed significant associations of 9 SNPs with alcohol-induced ONFH occurrence even after adjustment for age (P<0.05): 2 protective SNPs (rs1711423 and rs1784418) and 7 high-risk SNPs (rs10895322, rs1784424, rs3781788, rs7126560, rs1573954, rs1711399, and rs2292730). Moreover, 8 SNPs showed a statistically significant association with different clinical phenotypes (P<0.05). Beyond that, haplotype “CGGTTCCA” in MMP20 was discovered to correlate with a 1.63-fold increased risk of alcohol-induced ONFH (OR: 1.63, 95% CI: 1.15–2.30, P=0.0058). Conclusions Our data sheds new light on the associations of MMP20 gene polymorphisms with alcohol-induced ONFH predisposition in Chinese Han males.

MMP2 and MMP10 Polymorphisms Are Related to Steroid-Induced Osteonecrosis of the Femoral Head among Chinese Han Population. BIOMED RESEARCH INTERNATIONAL 2019; 2019:8298193. [PMID: 31192258 PMCID: PMC6525909 DOI: 10.1155/2019/8298193] [Citation(s) in RCA: 11] [Impact Index Per Article: 2.2] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Track Full Text] [Download PDF] [Figures] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 10/26/2018] [Accepted: 03/26/2019] [Indexed: 12/24/2022]
Abstract
Background Steroid-induced osteonecrosis of the femoral head is a relatively serious condition which seriously reduces patient quality of life. However, the pathogenesis of steroid-induced ONFH is still unclear. In recent years, more scholars have found that the pathogenesis of steroid-induced ONFH is related to susceptibility factors such as MMPs/TIMPs system. The main purpose of this study is to investigate the correlation between MMP2 and MMP10 gene polymorphisms and steroid-induced ONFH in Chinese Han population. Methods Six SNPs in MMP2 and two SNPs in MMP10 were genotyped using Agena MassARRAY RS1000 system from 286 patients of steroid-induced ONFH and in 309 healthy controls. The association between MMP2 and MMP10 polymorphisms and steroid-induced ONFH risk were estimated by the Chi-squared test, genetic model analysis, haplotype analysis, and stratification analysis. The relative risk was estimated by odd ratios (ORs) and 95% confidence intervals (CIs). Result We found that the minor TG allele of rs470154 in MMP10 was associated with an increased risk of steroid-induced ONFH (OR = 1.45, 95% CI, 1.03 – 2.05, p = 0.032). In the genetic model analysis, we found that rs2241146 in MMP2 gene and rs470154 in MMP10 gene showed a statistically significant association with increased risk of steroid-induced ONFH. The six SNPs (rs470154, rs243866, rs243864, rs865094, rs11646643, and rs2241146) showed a statistically significant association with different clinical phenotypes. Conclusion Our results verify that genetic polymorphisms of MMP2 and MMP10 contribute to steroid-induced ONFH susceptibility in the population of Chinese Han population, and our study provides new insights into the role that MMP2 and MMP10 plays in the mechanism of ONFH.

Abstract
Osteonecrosis is a pathological condition that could lead to a debilitating physical disease and impede daily activities. It is generally categorised into aetiology - primary (idiopathic) or secondary. When direct damage to the bone vasculature or direct injury of the bone marrow is related to an identifiable cause such as traumatic injuries, steroid or bisphosphonate use, increased alcohol intake, sickle cell disease, autoimmune diseases, chemotherapy or malignancy, it is categorised as secondary osteonecrosis. On the other hand, osteonecrosis wherein the mechanisms of development are not fully understood is categorised as primary or idiopathic osteonecrosis. This category includes inherited thrombophilia and hypofibrinolysis as potential causes. There are no clear guidelines or general agreements about anticoagulation treatment and duration in primary osteonecrosis due to thrombophilia or hypofibrinolysis. We report a case of primary osteonecrosis associated with hypofibrinolysis and successful control with lifelong direct oral anticoagulation therapy.

Abstract
Aims: The purpose of this study was to assess the relationship between genetic variants and steroid-induced osteonecrosis of the femoral head (SONFH) in steroid use populations. Methods: We searched the public databases up to April 15, 2018. This study analyzed only the single-nucleotide polymorphisms (SNPs) that have appeared in more than three studies and assessed the level of evidence by classifying the outcomes according to the Grading of Recommendations Assessment, Development, and Evaluation (GRADE) approach. Results: The ABCB1 rs1045642 C>T mutation had a protective effect against SONFH in the allelic model (I 2 = 50.2%; OR: 0.74; 95% CI: 0.55-1.00; p = 0.046). The rs2032582 mutation in the ABCB1 gene showed no relationship to SONFH (allelic model: I 2 = 63.4%; OR: 0.85; 95% CI: 0.58-1.23; p = 0.382). In ApoB rs693, four models showed that mutations can increase SONFH risk, but the allelic model did not. The ApoB rs1042031 mutation increased SONFH risk in the dominant model (I 2 = 50.3%; OR: 2.90; 95% CI: 1.49-5.66; p = 0.002). Conclusion: An allelic model of ABCB1 rs1045642 showed that mutations have a protective effect against SONFH at a very low level of evidence. The mutations in ApoB rs693 and rs1042031 increase the SONFH risk with moderate levels of evidence.

THE ARCHIVES OF BONE AND JOINT SURGERY 2018; 6:468-477.

Abstract
BACKGROUND The Plasminogen Activator Inhibitor-1 gene 4G/5G (PAI-1 4G/5G) polymorphism has been suggested to be associated with osteonecrosis of the femoral head (ONFH) susceptibility; however, the results are conflicting and inconclusive. We have carried out a comprehensive meta-analysis to derive a more precise estimation of the association. METHODS A comprehensive search in PubMed, EMBASE, Google Scholar, and ISI Web of Knowledge databases was conducted to identify all eligible case-control publications investigating the association between PAI-1 4G/5G polymorphism and ONFH risk. Odds ratios (OR) and corresponding 95% confidence intervals (CI) were used to assess the association. RESULTS A total of six studies with 456 cases and 1,019 controls were included in this review. Three studies were from Caucasian descendants and the three others were from East Asian descendants. Overall analysis suggests a significant association between PAI-1 4G/5G polymorphism and ONFH risk under the allele model (4G vs. 5G: OR =1.540, 95% CI =1.055-2.248, P=0.025) and the recessive model (4G4G vs. 4G5G+5G5G: OR=1.931, 95% CI: 1.162-3.207, P=0.011). When stratified by ethnicity, we have found a significant association between PAI-1 4G/5G polymorphism and ONFH risk among the Caucasian (4G5G vs. 5G5G: OR=1.806, 95% CI: 1.064-3.067, P=0.029) and East Asians (4G4G vs. 5G5G: OR=1.619, 95% CI: 1.025-2.556, P=0.039 and 4G4G vs. 4G5G+5G5G: OR=1.665, 95% CI: 1.207-2.297, P=0.002). CONCLUSION The present meta-analysis suggested that PAI-1 4G/5G (rs1799889) polymorphism is a potential risk factor for development of ONFH. However, large-scale and well-designed case-control studies in different ethnicities are required to validate these results.

Association between MMP-3 polymorphisms among Chinese patients with osteonecrosis of the femoral head. Oncotarget 2017; 8:108859-108866. [PMID: 29312574 PMCID: PMC5752487 DOI: 10.18632/oncotarget.22313] [Citation(s) in RCA: 4] [Impact Index Per Article: 0.6] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Key Words] [Track Full Text] [Download PDF] [Figures] [Journal Information] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 05/02/2017] [Accepted: 07/26/2017] [Indexed: 11/25/2022] Open
Abstract
Many potential causative factors are related to the initiation and progression of osteonecrosis of the femoral head (ONFH). The matrix metalloproteinase/tissue inhibitor of metalloproteinases (MMPs/TIMPs) system was found to play a significant role in the development of ONFH. The aim of this study is to investigate the association between polymorphisms of MMP-3 and ONFH in the Chinese population. We selected 8 single-nucleotide polymorphisms (SNPs) in 2 genes selected from the MMPs/TIMPs system in a case–control study with 585 cases of ONFH and 507 healthy controls. Odds ratios (ORs) and 95% confidence intervals (CIs) were estimated using the chi-squared test, genetic model analysis, haplotype analysis, and stratification analysis. We found that the minor allele of rs650108 and rs522616 (p<0.05) was assumed a risk allele compared to the wild-type allele. In the genetic model analysis, We observed two susceptibility SNPs additionally: rs650108, dominant model analyses (with adjustment: OR=0.73; 95%CI 0.56-0.95; p=0.017) and additive model analyses (with adjustment: OR=0.83; 95%CI 0.70-0.99; p=0.044); and rs522616 recessive model analyses (with adjustment: OR=1.52; 95%CI 1.07-2.14; p=0.018) and additive model analyses (with adjustment: OR=1.21; 95% CI 1.02-1.44; p=0.033). Our results verify that genetic variants of MMP3 contribute to ONFH susceptibility in the population of northern China. In addition, we found that gender differences might interact with MMP3 polymorphisms to contribute to the overall susceptibility to ONFH.

Association of SREBP2 gene polymorphisms with the risk of osteonecrosis of the femoral head relates to gene expression and lipid metabolism disorders. Mol Med Rep 2017; 16:7145-7153. [PMID: 28901487 DOI: 10.3892/mmr.2017.7473] [Citation(s) in RCA: 12] [Impact Index Per Article: 1.7] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Track Full Text] [Journal Information] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 08/01/2016] [Accepted: 07/12/2017] [Indexed: 11/06/2022] Open
Abstract
Although lipid metabolism disorders have been recognized as a primary factor of osteonecrosis of the femoral head (ONFH), the molecular pathogenesis remains unclear. Sterol regulatory element‑binding protein 2 (SREBP2) specifically regulates cholesterol and fatty acid metabolism to maintain lipid homeostasis. To explore the roles of the SREBP2 gene in the development of ONFH, the authors analyzed the gene polymorphism and gene expression of three tag single nucleotide polymorphisms of the SREBP2 gene, the serum lipids levels, and their associations with ONFH development in 182 ONFH patients and 179 healthy controls. The results demonstrated that the stage IV proportions of ONFH patients carrying the rs2267439CT or CC genotype were significantly higher and lower than the stage III proportions of ONFH patients (P=0.039), respectively. The serum triglyceride, low‑density lipoprotein (LDL)‑c levels, and LDL‑C/high‑density lipoprotein (HDL)‑C ratio in the ONFH group were significantly increased compared to those in the control group (P=0.01, P=0.005, P=0.0001) while the HDL‑C level of ONFH group was remarkably lower than that of the control group (P=0.0001). Association analysis further revealed that the LDL‑c levels of the rs226744 GG and AG genotype carriers were statistically higher than that of the AA genotype carriers (P=0.039, P=0.05). These results demonstrated that the gene polymorphism of SREBP2 not only significantly associated with the clinical phenotypes of ONFH but also closely related to lipid metabolism disorder. The results indicated that SREBP2 gene polymorphism and function may play key roles in the development of ONFH.

Association between alcohol-induced osteonecrosis of femoral head and risk variants of MMPS in Han population based on a case-control study. Oncotarget 2017; 8:64490-64498. [PMID: 28969088 PMCID: PMC5610020 DOI: 10.18632/oncotarget.16380] [Citation(s) in RCA: 9] [Impact Index Per Article: 1.3] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Key Words] [Track Full Text] [Download PDF] [Figures] [Journal Information] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 09/07/2016] [Accepted: 03/09/2017] [Indexed: 01/06/2023] Open
Abstract
The study aimed to evaluate the association between MMP gene superfamily and alcohol-induced osteonecrosis of femoral head (alcohol-induced ONFH) risk given its high prevalence, poor therapeutic effect, and serious clinical prognosis. 308 subjects (mean age, 49.47 years; males, 64.0%) who participated in our control group and 300 alcohol-induced ONFH patients (mean age, 43.29 years; males, 99.7%) formed the case group was enrolled to estimate by statistical analysis. We selected 23 single nucleotide polymorphisms (SNPs) from MMPs, and performed the chi-squared test, Fisher's exact test, t-test and genetic model analyses. From the result, rs243849 which located in MMP2 were 1.355 (1.014-1.811), 1.34 (1.01-1.78) in allele model and log-addictive model, respectively. And the p-value of rs243849 in Cochran-Armitage trend test is 0.044. Unfortunately, the similar results of these SNPs were not observed when adjusted by gender and age. Our study is not enough to supply a positive result to benefit for alcohol-induced ONFH clinical prevention, but guide out a new direction for further experiment.

Significant Associations of SOX9 Gene Polymorphism and Gene Expression with the Risk of Osteonecrosis of the Femoral Head in a Han Population in Northern China. BIOMED RESEARCH INTERNATIONAL 2017; 2016:5695317.

Abstract
Sex determining region Y-box 9 (SOX9) is a key transcription factor involved in cartilage formation during the embryonic development stage and cartilage growth and repair after birth. To explore the roles of polymorphism and expression of the SOX9 gene in the development of osteonecrosis of the femoral head (ONFH), we analyzed the polymorphism of rs12601701 [A/G] and rs1042667 [A/C] and the serum protein expression of the SOX9 gene in 182 patients with ONFH and 179 healthy control subjects. Results revealed that the A-A haplotype of SOX9 gene as well as the GG and AA genotypes of rs12601701 was significantly associated with increased ONFH risk (P = 0.038) and the risk of bilateral hip lesions of ONFH (P = 0.009), respectively. The C-A, A-A, and A-G haplotypes were also statistically associated with the decreased and increased risk of bilateral hip lesions of ONFH (P = 0.03, P = 0.048, and P = 0.013), respectively, while the A-A haplotype closely related to the clinical stages of ONFH (P = 0.041). More importantly, the serum SOX9 protein expression of the ONFH group was greatly decreased compared to control group (P = 0.0001). Our results first showed that the gene polymorphism and gene expression of SOX9 were significantly associated with the risk and clinical phenotypes of ONFH and also indicate that the SOX9 gene may play a key role in the development of ONFH.

Abstract
The RANKL/RANK/OPG pathway plays an important role in regulating bone remodeling and bone turnover. However, the association of the genes variants with the risk of ONFH has rarely been reported. Here, we analyzed the correlation of the 10 SNPs polymorphisms of RANKL, RANK, OPG, TRAF6, and NFATC1 genes with the risk and development of ONFH in 200 ONFH patients and 177 health controls of Chinese population with using Mass ARRAY® platform. The results showed that the recessive model of NFATC1rs9518 was significantly associated with increased ONFH risk (OR:8.223, P=0.048); the proportion of stage Ⅳ patients in the rs9518TC genotype carriers was statistically higher than that of stage Ⅲ patients (P=0.03); in the T-C haplotype carriers of Naftac1, the proportion of bilateral hips lesions was also significantly enhanced than that of unilateral hip lesions(P=0.05). In addition, the proportion of idiopathic ONFH in the TT genotype carriers of OPGrs2073617 was significantly higher than that of steroid or alcohol-induced ONFH, respectively, while in the TC genotype carriers of the SNP, the proportion of idiopathic ONFH remarkably decreased compared with that of Alcohol-induced ONFH, P=0.021. Our results were first found that NFATC1rs9518 closely associated with the risk and the development of ONFH, while OPGrs2073617 statistically correlated with the etiological classification of ONFH.

Abstract
➤ Although multiple theories have been proposed, no one pathophysiologic mechanism has been identified as the etiology for the development of osteonecrosis of the femoral head. However, the basic mechanism involves impaired circulation to a specific area that ultimately becomes necrotic.➤ A variety of nonoperative treatment regimens have been evaluated for the treatment of precollapse disease, with varying success. Prospective, multicenter, randomized trials are needed to evaluate the efficacy of these regimens in altering the natural history of the disease.➤ Joint-preserving procedures are indicated in the treatment of precollapse disease, with several studies showing successful outcomes at mid-term and long-term follow-up.➤ Studies of total joint arthroplasty, once femoral head collapse is present, have described excellent outcomes at greater than ten years of follow-up, which is a major advance and has led to a paradigm shift in treating these patients.➤ The results of hemiresurfacing and total resurfacing arthroplasty have been suboptimal, and these procedures have restricted indications in patients with osteonecrosis of the femoral head.

Abstract
Previous studies indicate pathophysiological and epidemiological parallels between osteonecrosis (ON) and thromboembolism (TE), two common treatment-related morbidities in acute lymphoblastic leukemia (ALL). To elucidate risk factors for ON and explore the relationship between ON and TE, we undertook a retrospective study of children (n = 208) with ALL. Twenty-one (10.1%) children developed ON and 42 (20.2%) TE on therapy. Thromboembolism was a significant predictor of ON on univariate (OR 8.85) and multivariate analysis, along with older age and PEGylated asparaginase. This observation supports a role for hypercoagulability in the pathogenesis of ON. Larger prospective studies are needed to further test these findings.

Abstract
Polymorphisms of apolipoprotein B (ApoB), apolipoprotein A1 (ApoA1) gene and ApoB/ApoA1 Ratio were associated with lipid metabolism disorders in previous reports. The aim of this study assess whether variation of ApoB, ApoA1 gene are associated or not with alcohol-induced osteonecrosis of femoral head (ONFH). In a case-control study, we genotyped 4 single-nucleotide polymorphisms (SNPs) in ApoB and ApoA1 genes in 209 alcohol-induced ONFH patients and 300 healthy control subjects in Han Chinese population using χ(2) test and genetic model analysis. The analysis revealed that the frequencies of ApoB and ApoA1 genotypes were significantly different in alcohol-induced ONFH patients than in controls. We identified rs1042034, rs676210 and rs673548 in ApoB gene were associated with decreased risk of alcohol-induced ONFH using recessive model analysis (odds ratio [OR], 0.44; 95% confidence interval [CI], 0.19-0.99; P = 0.042), the OR, CI, P value of three SNPs were the same after adjusted for gender + age. We also identified rs632153 in ApoA1 gene was associated with increased risk of alcohol-induced ONFH using allele model (OR, 1.83; 95% CI, 1.16-2.88; P = 0.008) and log-additive model (adjusted OR, 1.77; 95% CI, 1.00-3.14; P = 0.046), analysis respectively. Haplotype analysis demonstrated no difference between ApoB and alcohol-induced ONFH. Polymorphisms of the ApoB and ApoA1 gene are associated with alcohol-induced ONFH in the Han Chinese population.

Abstract
UNLABELLED Perthes disease is one of the most common forms of pediatric femoral head osteonecrosis with an unknown etiology. Coagulation factors were the first genetic factors suspected to have a role in the pathogenesis of this disease, but studies showed inconsistent results. It is described that inflammation is present during early stages of Perthes disease, but its genetic aspect has not been studied extensively. Little is known regarding the status of apoptotic factors during the repair process that leads to the occurrence of hip deformity in patients. Therefore, the aim of this study was to analyze major mediators involved in coagulation, inflammation, and apoptotic processes as possible causative factors of Perthes disease. The study cohort consisted of 37 patients. Gene variants of TNF-α, FV, FII, and MTHFR genes were determined by PCR-RFLP, while IL-3 and PAI-1 were genotyped by direct sequencing. The expression level of Bax, Bcl-2, Bcl2L12, Fas and FasL was analyzed by quantitative reverse-transcriptase polymerase chain reaction (qRT-PCR) technique. Our results showed a significantly increased level of expression of pro-apoptotic factor Bax along with significantly higher Bax/Bcl-2 ratio in the patient group. CONCLUSION The results presented indicate that apoptosis could be one of the factors contributing to the lack of balanced bone remodeling process in Perthes patients.

Abstract
Background A keloid is pathological scar caused by aberrant response to skin injuries, characterized by excessive accumulation of histological extracellular matrix, and occurs in genetically susceptible individuals. Plasminogen activator inhibitor-1 (PAI-1) has been implicated in the pathogenesis of keloid. We investigated the association between PAI-1 polymorphisms and plasma PAI-1 level with keloid risk. Material/Methods A total of 242 Chinese keloid patients and 207 controls were enrolled in this study. Polymerase chain reaction-restriction technique was used to determine PAI-1 promoter polymorphism (-675 4G/5G and -844 A/G) distribution. Plasma PAI-1 levels were detected using enzyme-linked immunosorbent assay (ELISA). Results There was a statistically significant difference in the distribution of PAI-1 -675 4G/5G polymorphism between keloid patients and healthy controls. 4G/4G carriers were more likely to develop keloid. In contrast, the -844 A/G polymorphism distribution did not vary significantly between keloid patients and controls. The keloid patients group had a significantly higher plasma PAI-1 level than the control group. In the -675 4G/4G carrier population, the plasma PAI-1 levels were significant higher in keloid patients compared with controls. Conclusions Our study provides evidence that PAI-1 promoter polymorphism -675 4G/5G and plasma PAI-1 level are associated with keloid risk. PAI-1 -675 4G/5G polymorphism may be an important hereditary factor responsible for keloid development in the Chinese Han population.

Abstract
The present study presents results from a linkage and mutation screening analysis aiming to identify the causative gene of femoral head necrosis, also known as osteonecrosis of femoral head (ONFH), in a Chinese pedigree. We collected clinical data on the osteonecrosis pedigree, and extracted blood and genomic DNA from the family members. Polymerase chain reaction (PCR) and direct sequencing allowed to identify a mutation in the COL2A1 gene of the proband; the clinical manifestations of the proband meet the criteria for osteonecrosis. The exons of COL2A1 were amplified by polymerase chain reaction and mutation screening was conducted by direct sequencing in all the family members. The locus was also sequenced in 50 unrelated healthy controls. The c.3665G>A heterozygous mutation was detected in patients of the pedigree, but not in healthy individuals. We conclude that a mutation in the COL2A1 gene is the causative agent of ONFH in this family. Therefore, this mutation may be associated with osteonecrosis in Chinese populations.

Abstract
Generally, recurrent spontaneous abortions (RSAs) have no identifiable cause; yet, vascular alterations during pregnancy may be associated with pregnancy loss. Therefore, we evaluated the association between thrombophilic mutations and RSAs. This case–control study was conducted in 112 patients who had RSAs and 98 health control women. Genomic DNA was extracted from whole blood, and polymorphism genotyping was conducted using polymerase chain reaction. The following 6 genetic variants were analyzed: factor V Leiden, prothrombin mutation, methylenetetrahydrofolate reductase C677T and A1298C, plasminogen activator inhibitor type 1 (4G>5G), and factor XIII G103T (V34L). No correlations were found in any of the investigated polymorphisms. Moreover, 35.0% of cases and 25.5% of controls had at least 2 mutations in combination, and 4.8% of cases and 5.1% of controls had 3, but these combinations were not associated with additional risk. In conclusion, we found no association between the polymorphisms studied and the occurrence of RSAs.

Abstract
Background Steroid usage has been considered as a leading cause of non-traumatic osteonecrosis of the femoral head (ONFH), which is involved in hypo-fibrinolysis and blood supply interruption. Genetic polymorphisms in plasminogen activator inhibitor-1 (PAI-1) have been demonstrated to be associated with ONFH risk in several populations. However, this relationship has not been established in Chinese population. The aim of this study was to investigate the association of PAI-1 gene polymorphisms with steroid-induced ONFH in a large cohort of Chinese population. Methods A case–control study was conducted, which included 94 and 106 unrelated patients after steroid administration recruited from 14 provinces in China, respectively. Two SNPs (rs11178 and rs2227631) within PAI-1 were genotyped using Sequenom MassARRAY system. Results rs2227631 SNP was significantly associated with steroid-induced ONFH group in codominant (P = 0.04) and recessive (P = 0.02) models. However, there were no differences found in genotype frequencies of rs11178 SNP between controls and patients with steroid-induced ONFH (all P > 0.05). Conclusions Our data offer the convincing evidence for the first time that rs2227631 SNP of PAI-1 may be associated with the risk of steroid-induced ONFH, suggesting that the genetic variations of this gene may play an important role in the disease development.

Abstract
Background The etiology of osteonecrosis of femoral head (ONFH) has not been fully elucidated. Increased intravascular coagulation and/or hypofibrinolysis have been proposed as pathogenic mechanisms. Previous reports demonstrated significant association between incidence of ONFH and polymorphisms of genes related with thrombophilia especially in Caucasian subjects. The aim of our study was to evaluate the relationship between genetic mutations leading to coagulation disorders and ONFH in Polish patients. Methods We have investigated the frequencies of four markers among 68 unrelated individuals with clinically and radiographically documented ONFH and among 100 healthy unrelated blood donors in Eastern part of Poland. The three genes were involved in thrombophilia: factor V Leiden (G1691A), prothrombin (G20210A), Methylenetetrahydrofolate Reductase (MTHFR C677T) and one in hypofibrinolysis: Tissue Plasminogen Activator (PLAT TPA25 I/D). The samples were genotyped with polymerase chain reaction followed by restriction enzyme analysis for the restriction fragment length polymorphisms. The allele and genotype frequencies were analyzed in the relation to ONFH etiology (idiopathic and secondary), gender, age (patients younger or older than 50 years) and the number of affected joints (unilateral or bilateral ONFH). Results No significant difference in allele frequencies between patients and control groups were observed in genes involved in thrombophilia. We have found a statistically significant increased frequency of D allele of PLAT TPA 25 I/D polymorphism between the entire group of patients with ONFH and controls (p=0,026, OR=1,54, CI 0,99-2,4). D allele frequency was also significantly increased in patients with primary ONFH (p=0,009, OR=1,81 CI 1,1-3,01), in males (p= 0,013; OR 1,74; 95% CIs 1,08-2,78), patients older than 50 years (p= 0,018, OR= 2,04; 95% CIs 1,09-3,82) and in cases with bilateral ONFH (p= 0,01; OR= 1,92; 95% CIs 1,13-3,27) (Table 9). The differences in DD homozygous genotype frequency were statistically significant for patients with idiopathic ONFH compared with control group (p=0,023, OR=2,75, CI 0,99-7,9) and in cases of bilateral ONFH (p=0,034; OR 3,12; 95% CIs 1,06-9,18) (Table 10). The frequencies of ID heterozygous genotype were statistically significantly higher in entire group of patients with ONFH (p=0,004 OR 2,71; 95% CIs 1,32-5,57), idiopathic ONFH (p= 0,01; OR 2,91; 95% CIs 1,24-6,87), males (p=0,0007; OR 3,75; 95% CIs 1,67-8,42), patients older than 50 years (p=0,001; OR 6,89; 95% CIs 1,87-25,84) and in cases with bilateral ONFH (p=0,009; OR 3,19; 95% CIs 1,26-8,03). Conclusion The results suggest that inherited hypofibrinolysis is a risk factor of idiopathic ONFH in Polish population.

Abstract
OBJECTIVE To explore the correlation between post-severe acute respiratory symptom (SARS) patients with osteonecrosis, investigate the etiology of post-SARS osteonecrosis and select the sensitive molecular symbols for early diagnosis and distinguish the high-risk population. METHODS The studied subjects were divided into two groups. Sixty-two post-SARS patients with osteonecrosis were one group, and 52 age- and sex-matched healthy people were as normal controlled group. Empty stomach blood samples from cubital veins were collected from both groups. Plasminogen activator inhibitor (PAI) by means of enzyme-linked immunosorbent assay and PAI-1 4G/5G polymorphism was detected by polymerase chain reaction and solid phase oligonucleotide assay. RESULTS The blood agents of post-SARS patients changed obviously with 15.64 ± 13.85 U/ml while the control group 7.96 ± 4.27 U/ml; 4G/4G genotype for the PAI-1 polymorphism detected in post-SARS group was more than that of the control group, but had no statistical significance. The plasma PAI activity was related to homozygote 4G/4G genotype. This reveals that homozygote 4G/4G genotype may be a susceptible gene mark to Chinese osteonecrosis patients. CONCLUSION Plasminogen activator inhibitor-1 is sensitive blood symbol for screening high-risk susceptible population; 4G/4G PAI-1 genotype may be an etiological factor in osteonecrosis.

Abstract
The aim of this review was to provide information about the variety of thrombophilic and hypofibrinolytic markers that are possible risk factors for the development of osteonecrosis and bone marrow edema syndrome. A total of 48 parameters were identified in 45 studies that included 2163 patients. The most frequently reported laboratory findings included altered serum concentrations of lipoproteins, decreased concentration and function of fibrinolytic agents, increased levels of thrombophilic markers, and several single nucleotide polymorphisms. Despite inhomogeneities in reported parameters, results, patients' collectives, and treatment strategies, these data suggest that coagulation abnormalities may play an important role in the emergence of osteonecrosis and bone marrow edema syndrome.

Abstract
Glucocorticoid-induced osteonecrosis is a common and severe adverse event. We conducted a meta-analysis to investigate whether polymorphisms in target genes were associated with the risk of corticosteroid-induced osteonecrosis. Published literature from PubMed and EMBASE were searched for eligible publications. Pooled odds ratio (OR) and 95% confidence interval (CI) were calculated using a fixed- or random-effects model. There were 23 articles with 35 genes described the relationship between polymorphisms and glucocorticoid-induced osteonecrosis. Meta-analyses were carried out for those SNPs with three or more eligible studies, which included four SNPs located in three genes (PAI-1, MTHFR, ABCB1). The meta-analysis revealed that the PAI-1 4G allele was associated with an increased risk of osteonecrosis compared with the 5G allele (combined studies: OR=1.932, 95% CI=1.145-3.261). The OR for the 4G/4G vs. 5G/5G genotype of PAI-1 was 3.217 (95% CI 1.667-6.209 with combined studies), The relative risk of osteonecrosis was increased in the 4G allele vs. 5G/5G and 4G/4G genotype vs. 5G allele, with odds ratios of 2.304 (95% CI=1.235-4.299) and 2.307 (95% CI=1.527-3.485) in combined studies, respectively. The ABCB1 C3435T genotype distributions available confirmed that the C allele increased osteonecrosis risk compared with the T allele (OR 1.668, 95% CI=1.214-2.293) and TT genotype (OR 2.946, 95% CI=1.422-6.101). There was no evidence for significant association between MTHFR C677T and ABCB1 G2677T/A polymorphisms and risk of osteonecrosis. Results of this meta-analysis indicate that the PAI-1 4G/5G and ABCB1 C3435T polymorphisms may be risk factors for osteonecrosis.

Abstract
An impeded blood flow through the femoral head is incriminated in the etiopathogenesis of osteonecrosis of the femoral head (ONFH). Vascular endothelial growth factor (VEGF) is a strong angiogenic protein and also plays a role in the formation of cartilage and bone. The aim of this study was to evaluate the association of VEGF -634G/C polymorphism with ONFH in a Chinese population. A total of 220 unrelated patients with nontraumatic ONFH and 220 unrelated control subjects were consecutively enrolled in a hospital-based case-control study. A polymerase chain reaction-restriction fragment length polymorphism analysis was used to detect the VEGF -634G/C genotype. Patients with ONFH had a significantly higher frequency of the CC genotype (odds ratio=1.64, 95% confidence interval=1.03, 2.60; p=0.04) than controls. There were no significant associations between any genotypes and the cause of ONFH. Our results support the hypothesis that the VEGF -634CC genotype is a risk factor of ONFH in the Chinese population. However, current results should be validated prospectively in larger cohorts.
