Abstract
Worldwide, osteoarthritis (OA) is the most common cause of joint pain in older people. Many factors contribute to osteoarthritis' development and progression, including secondary osteoarthritis' underlying causes. It is important to note that osteoarthritis affects all four tissues: cartilage, bone, joint capsule, and articular apparatus. An increasingly prominent area of research in osteoarthritis regulation is microRNAs (miRNAs), a small, single-stranded RNA molecule that controls gene expression in eukaryotes. We aimed to assess and summarize current knowledge about the mechanisms of the action of miRNAs and their clinical significance. Osteoarthritis (OA) is affected by the interaction between miRNAs and inflammatory processes, as well as cartilage metabolism. MiRNAs also influence cartilage cell apoptosis, contributing to the degradation of the cartilage in OA. Studies have shown that miRNAs may have both an inhibitory and promoting effect on osteoporosis progression through their influence on molecular mechanisms. By identifying these regulators, targeted treatments for osteoarthritis may be developed. In addition, microRNA may also serve as a biomarker for osteoarthritis. By using these biomarkers, the disease could be detected faster, and early intervention can be instituted to prevent mobility loss and slow deterioration.

Abstract
Plant-derived extracellular vesicles (PDEV) constitute nanoscale entities comprising lipids, proteins, nucleic acids and various components enveloped by the lipid bilayers of plant cells. These vesicles play a crucial role in facilitating substance and information transfer not only between plant cells but also across different species. Owing to its safety, stability, and the abundance of raw materials, this substance has found extensive utilization in recent years within research endeavors aimed at treating various diseases. This article provides an overview of the pathways and biological characteristics of PDEV, along with the prevalent methods employed for its isolation, purification, and storage. Furthermore, we comprehensively outline the therapeutic implications of diverse sources of PDEV in musculoskeletal system disorders. Additionally, we explore the utilization of PDEV as platforms for engineering drug carriers, aiming to delve deeper into the significance and potential contributions of PDEV in the realm of the musculoskeletal system.

Abstract
Osteoarthritis (OA) is a multifactorial degenerative joint disease of which the underlying mechanisms are yet to be fully understood. At the molecular level, multiple factors including altered signaling pathways, epigenetics, metabolic imbalance, extracellular matrix degradation, production of matrix metalloproteinases, and inflammatory cytokines, are known to play a detrimental role in OA. However, these factors do not initiate OA, but are mediators or consequences of the disease, while many other factors causing the etiology of OA are still unknown. Here, it is revealed that microenvironmental osmolarity can induce and reverse osteoarthritis-related behavior of chondrocytes via altered intracellular molecular crowding, which represents a previously unknown mechanism underlying OA pathophysiology. Decreased intracellular crowding is associated with increased sensitivity to proinflammatory triggers and decreased responsiveness to anabolic stimuli. OA-induced lowered intracellular molecular crowding could be renormalized via exposure to higher extracellular osmolarity such as those found in healthy joints, which reverse OA chondrocyte's sensitivity to catabolic stimuli as well as its glycolytic metabolism.

Abstract
Bone and cartilage disorders are the leading causes of musculoskeletal disability. There is no absolute cure for all bone and cartilage disorders. The exploration of natural compounds for the potential therapeutic use against bone and cartilage disorders is proving promising. Among these natural chemicals, naringin, a flavanone glycoside, is a potential candidate due to its multifaceted pharmacological activities in bone and cartilage tissues. Emerging studies indicate that naringin may promote osteogenic differentiation, inhibit osteoclast formation, and exhibit protective effects against osteoporosis in vivo and in vitro. Many signaling pathways, such as BMP-2, Wnt/β-catenin, and VEGF/VEGFR, participate in the biological actions of naringin in mediating the pathological development of osteoporosis. In addition, the anti-inflammatory, anti-oxidative stress, and anti-apoptosis abilities of naringin also demonstrate its beneficial effects against bone and cartilage disorders, including intervertebral disc degeneration, osteoarthritis, rheumatoid arthritis, bone and cartilage tumors, and tibial dyschondroplasia. Naringin exhibits protective effects against bone and cartilage disorders. However, more efforts are still needed due to, at least in part, the uncertainty of drug targets. Further biological and pharmacological evaluations of naringin and its applications in bone tissue engineering, particularly its therapeutic effects against osteoporosis, might result in developing potential drug candidates.

Abstract
Osteoarthritis (OA) is a common joint disease and has been studied extensively in recent years as no promising therapy available so far for its treatment and remains a great challenge for health care specialists. Although the identification of some major mechanisms that contribute to this disease suggests a plethora of bioactive agents in tackling the associated complications yet OA's pathophysiology is still poorly understood owing to complex mechanistic changes observed. Experimental research is now exploring a wide range of therapeutically effective agents in an effort to find a way to repair OA-related joint degeneration and halt it from getting worse. Data was acquired and reviewed from most relevant and recent studies. This review summarizes the studies that are currently available and focuses on how various unconventional functional oils affect osteoarthritis and the affected joint tissues. An analysis of the recent scientific literature allowed us to highlight the potential anti-arthritic properties of edible oils and their main constituents, which seems to suggest an interesting new potential therapeutic application. Due to eccentric nature of OA, it is necessary to concentrate initially on the management of symptoms. The evidence supporting functional oils chondroprotective potential is still accumulating, underpinning a global need for more sustainable natural sources of treatment. More clinical research that focuses on the consequences of long-term treatment, possible negative effects, and epigenetic implications is necessary to get optimistic results. However, different animal or clinical studies suggest that linolenic and linoleic fatty acids decreased chondrocyte oxidative stress, cartilage breakdown, and expression of inflammatory markers. Distinct fatty acids along with minor components of oils also reduced the generation of prostaglandins and decreased oxidative stress. Furthermore, the potential roles of the main components of edible oils and possible negative results (if any) are also reported. While no severe side effects have been reported for any edible oils. Overall, these studies identify and support the use of functional oils as an adjuvant therapy for the management of OA and as a means of symptomatic alleviation for OA patients. However, to prove the effectiveness or to draw precise conclusions, high-quality clinical trials are required.

Abstract
Introduction Osteoarthritis (OA) is a chronic degenerative joint disease accompanied by an elevated macrophage proinflammatory phenotype, which is triggered by persistent pathologically elevated calcium ion levels in mitochondria. However, existing pharmacological compounds targeting the inhibition of mitochondrial calcium ion (m[Ca2+]) influx are currently limited in terms of plasma membrane permeability and low specificity for ion channels and transporters. In the present study, we synthesized mesoporous silica nanoparticle-amidated (MSN)-ethylenebis (oxyethylenenitrilo)tetraacetic acid (EGTA)/triphenylphosphine (TPP)-polyethylene glycol (PEG) [METP] nanoparticles (NPs), which specifically target mitochondria and block excess calcium ion influx. Methods m[Ca2+] overload in OA mouse bone marrow-derived macrophages (BMDMs) was detected by a fluorescence probe. A tissue in situ fluorescence colocalization assay was used to evaluate METP NP uptake by macrophages. BMDMs from healthy mice were pretreated with a concentration gradient of METP NPs followed by lipopolysaccharide (LPS) stimulation and detection of m[Ca2+] levels in vitro. The optimal METP NP concentration was further applied, and the endoplasmic reticulum (ER) and cytoplasm calcium levels were detected. The inflammatory phenotype was measured by surface markers, cytokine secretion and intracellular inflammatory gene/protein expression. A Seahorse cell energy metabolism assay was performed to elucidate the mechanism by which METP NPs reverse the BMDM proinflammatory phenotype. Results The present study identified calcium overload in BMDM mitochondria of OA mice. We demonstrated that METP NPs reversed the increased m[Ca2+] levels in mitochondria and the proinflammatory phenotype of BMDMs, with both in vivo and in vitro experiments, via the inhibition of the mitochondrial aspartate-arginosuccinate shunt and ROS production. Conclusion We demonstrated that METP NPs are effective and highly specific regulators of m[Ca2+] overload. In addition, we demonstrated that these METP NPs reverse the macrophage proinflammatory phenotype by restoring m[Ca2+] homeostasis, thereby inhibiting the tissue inflammatory response and achieving a therapeutic effect for OA.

Abstract
Osteoarthritis (OA) is a disease due to the aging of the articular cartilage, a post-mitotic tissue that stays functioning until primary homeostatic processes fail. Because of pain and disability, OA significantly influences national healthcare expenses and patient quality of life. It is a whole-joint illness characterized by inflammatory and oxidative signaling pathways and significant epigenetic alterations that cause cartilage extracellular matrix degradation. The canonical Wnt pathway (Wnt/β-catenin pathway) and nuclear factor kappa B (NF-κB) signaling pathways may function in joint tissues by modulating the activity of synovial cells, osteoblasts, and chondrocytes. However, finding innovative ways to treat osteoarthritis and get the joint back to average balance is still a struggle. Nutraceuticals are dietary supplements that promote joint health by balancing anabolic and catabolic signals. New therapeutic methods for OA treatment have been developed based on many research findings that show nutraceuticals have strong anti-inflammation, antioxidant, anti-bone resorption, and anabolic properties. For the treatment of osteoarthritis, we explore the possible involvement of nutraceuticals that target the Wnt/β-catenin and NF-κB pathways. PRACTICAL APPLICATIONS: In keeping with the aging population, osteoarthritis is becoming more widespread. In this extensive research, we studied the role of the Wnt/β-catenin and NF-κB pathway in OA formation and progression. Nutraceuticals that target these OA-related signaling pathways are a viable therapy option. Wnt/β-catenin and NF-κB signaling pathway are inhibited by polyphenols, flavonoids, alkaloids, and vitamins from the nutraceutical category, making them possible therapeutic drugs for OA therapy.

Abstract
Canine osteoarthritis is a significant cause of pain in many dogs and can therefore compromise animal welfare. As the understanding of the biology and pain mechanisms underpinning osteoarthritis grows, so do the number of treatments available to manage it. Over the last decade, there have been a number of advances in the pharmaceutical treatment options available for dogs with osteoarthritis, as well as an increasing number of clinical trials investigating the efficacy of pre-existing treatments. This review aims to examine the current evidence behind pharmaceutical treatment options for canine osteoarthritis, including non-steroidal anti-inflammatory drugs, piprants, monoclonal antibodies, adjunctive analgesics, structure modifying osteoarthritis drugs and regenerative therapies.

Abstract
Costimulatory molecules of the CD28 family play a crucial role in the activation of immune responses in T lymphocytes, complementing and modulating signals originating from the T-cell receptor (TCR) complex. Although distinct functional roles have been demonstrated for each family member, the specific signaling pathways differentiating ICOS- from CD28-mediated costimulation during early T-cell activation are poorly characterized. In the present study, we have performed RNA-Seq-based global transcriptome profiling of anti-CD3-treated naïve CD4+ T cells upon costimulation through either inducible costimulator (ICOS) or CD28, revealing a set of signaling pathways specifically associated with each signal. In particular, we show that CD3/ICOS costimulation plays a major role in pathways related to STAT3 function and osteoarthritis (OA), whereas the CD3/CD28 axis mainly regulates p38 MAPK signaling. Furthermore, we report the activation of distinct immunometabolic pathways, with CD3/ICOS costimulation preferentially targeting glycosaminoglycans (GAGs) and CD3/CD28 regulating mitochondrial respiratory chain and cholesterol biosynthesis. These data suggest that ICOS and CD28 costimulatory signals play distinct roles during the activation of naïve T cells by modulating distinct sets of immunological and immunometabolic genes.

Abstract
Osteoarthritis (OA) is an age-related disorder that affects the joints and causes functional disability. Hericium erinaceus is a large edible mushroom with several known medicinal functions. However, the therapeutic effects of H. erinaceus in OA are unknown. In this study, data from Sprague-Dawley rats with knee OA induced by anterior cruciate ligament transection (ACLT) indicated that H. erinaceus mycelium improves ACLT-induced weight-bearing asymmetry and minimizes pain. ACLT-induced increases in articular cartilage degradation and bone erosion were significantly reduced by treatment with H. erinaceus mycelium. In addition, H. erinaceus mycelium reduced the synthesis of proinflammatory cytokines interleukin-1β and tumor necrosis factor-α in OA cartilage and synovium. H. erinaceus mycelium shows promise as a functional food in the treatment of OA.

Development of human cartilage circadian rhythm in a stem cell-chondrogenesis model. Theranostics 2022; 12:3963-3976.

Abstract
The circadian clock in murine articular cartilage is a critical temporal regulatory mechanism for tissue homeostasis and osteoarthritis. However, translation of these findings into humans has been hampered by the difficulty in obtaining circadian time series human cartilage tissues. As such, a suitable model is needed to understand the initiation and regulation of circadian rhythms in human cartilage. Methods: We used a chondrogenic differentiation protocol on human embryonic stem cells (hESCs) as a proxy for early human chondrocyte development. Chondrogenesis was validated using histology and expression of pluripotency and differentiation markers. The molecular circadian clock was tracked in real time by lentiviral transduction of human clock gene luciferase reporters. Differentiation-coupled gene expression was assessed by RNAseq and differential expression analysis. Results: hESCs lacked functional circadian rhythms in clock gene expression. During chondrogenic differentiation, there was an expected reduction of pluripotency markers (e.g., NANOG and OCT4) and a significant increase of chondrogenic genes (SOX9, COL2A1 and ACAN). Histology of the 3D cartilage pellets at day 21 showed a matrix architecture resembling human cartilage, with readily detectable core clock proteins (BMAL1, CLOCK and PER2). Importantly, the circadian clocks in differentiating hESCs were activated between day 11 (end of the 2D stage) and day 21 (10 days after 3D differentiation) in the chondrogenic differentiation protocol. RNA sequencing revealed striking differentiation coupled changes in the expression levels of most clock genes and a range of clock regulators. Conclusions: The circadian clock is gradually activated through a differentiation-coupled mechanism in a human chondrogenesis model. These findings provide a human 3D chondrogenic model to investigate the role of the circadian clock during normal homeostasis and in diseases such as osteoarthritis.

Abstract
Regeneration of articular cartilage remains challenging. The aim of this study was to increase the stability of pure bioactive glass (BG) scaffolds by means of solvent phase polymer infiltration and to maintain cell adherence on the glass struts. Therefore, BG scaffolds either pure or enhanced with three different amounts of poly(D-L-lactide-co-glycolide) (PLGA) were characterized in detail. Scaffolds were seeded with primary porcine articular chondrocytes (pACs) and human mesenchymal stem cells (hMSCs) in a dynamic long-term culture (35 days). Light microscopy evaluations showed that PLGA was detectable in every region of the scaffold. Porosity was greater than 70%. The biomechanical stability was increased by polymer infiltration. PLGA infiltration did not result in a decrease in viability of both cell types, but increased DNA and sulfated glycosaminoglycan (sGAG) contents of hMSCs-colonized scaffolds. Successful chondrogenesis of hMSC-colonized scaffolds was demonstrated by immunocytochemical staining of collagen type II, cartilage proteoglycans and the transcription factor SOX9. PLGA-infiltrated scaffolds showed a higher relative expression of cartilage related genes not only of pAC-, but also of hMSC-colonized scaffolds in comparison to the pure BG. Based on the novel data, our recommendation is BG scaffolds with single infiltrated PLGA for cartilage tissue engineering.

Abstract
Platelets are an essential component of hemostasis, with an increasing role in host inflammatory processes in injured tissues. The reaction between receptors and vascular endothelial cells results in the recruitment of platelets in the immune response pathway. The aim of the present review is to describe the role of platelets in osteoarthritis. Platelets induce secretion of biological substances, many of which are key players in the inflammatory response in osteoarthritis. Molecules involved in cartilage degeneration, or being markers of inflammation in osteoarthritis, are cytokines, such as tumor necrosis factor α (TNFα), interleukins (IL), type II collagen, aggrecan, and metalloproteinases. Surprisingly, platelets may also be used as a treatment modality for osteoarthritis. Multiple randomized controlled trials included in our systematic review and meta-analyses prove the effectiveness of platelet-rich plasma (PRP) as a minimally invasive method of pain alleviation in osteoarthritis treatment.

Abstract
The development of skeleton system is a complex biological process and be regulated by many transcription factors. Previous studies have shown that BMP6 is involved in skeleton development and other cells transforming to chondrocytes, but it is still not known whether do something to tibial dyschondroplasia (TD) broilers chondrocytes. In this study, RT-PCR revealed that the expression level of BMP6 in TD broiler chondrocytes at 7 days age was significantly decreased compared with normal group (P < 0.05). CCK-8 and EdU assay showed that the proliferation of cells transfected with interference BMP6 was significantly decreased compared with control siRNA, while cell proliferation was significantly increased after overexpression of BMP6. Meanwhile, the proportion of G0/G1 phase cells was significantly increased and the proportion of G2/M phase cells was significantly decreased after interference of BMP6 for 48 h in TD chicken chondrocytes (P < 0.05). In addition, flow cytometry analysis exhibited that interference BMP6 significantly increased apoptosis rate and necrotizing rate of cells. In conclusion, these results suggest that BMP6 plays a positive role in the growth and development of TD broiler chondrocytes. Our findings reveal a new target for TD prevention in broiler chickens.

Abstract
OBJECTIVE To investigate the relationship between hypoxia inducible factor-1α (HIF-1α) and the autophagic response in osteoarthritic chondrocytes (OA), under inflammatory insult as represented by in vitro OA model. METHODS Human chondrocyte cell line C28/I2 was cultured in both normoxic and hypoxic conditions and treated with interleukin-1β (IL1β) to emulate OA inflammatory insult in vitro. Cellular HIF-1α expression was silenced using siRNA transfection and cellular autophagic (P62/LC3II) response and OA chondrocyte damage (COL2A1/MMP13) related proteins were examined using western blotting. Cellular mitophagic (BNIP3/PINK1/Parkin) and apoptotic (Caspase/Cleaved Caspase 3) were also evaluated to assess mitophagy-mediated cell death due to HIF-1α silencing. RESULTS Chondrocyte basal autophagy levels were higher in a HIF-1α elevated environment and was more resistant to IL1β-induced inflammatory insult. Increase in autophagic proteins showed better chondrocyte repair, which resulted a lower level of reactive oxygen species production, and lesser damage to chondrocyte integrity. Silencing HIF-1α activates cellular PINK1/Parkin and BNIP3 mitophagic proteins, which leads to the activation of Caspase/Cleaved Caspase 3 apoptotic cascade. CONCLUSION Our results show that chondrocyte autophagy is dependent on HIF-1α expression, showing the importance of HIF-1α in hypoxic chondrocyte function in OA. Dysregulation of HIF-1α expression results in the activation of mitophagy-mediated apoptosis.

Abstract
Osteoarthritis (OA) is the most common degenerative joint disease. Rapamycin is a potential candidate for OA treatment by increasing the autophagy process implicated in its physiopathology. To optimize Rapamycin profit and avoid systemic side effects, intra-articular (i.a.) administration appeared helpful. However, Rapamycin's highly hydrophobic nature and low bioavailability made it challenging to develop purpose-made drug delivery systems to overcome these limitations. We developed Rapamycin-loaded nanoparticles (NPs) using poly (lactic-co-glycolic acid) by emulsion/evaporation method. We evaluated these NPs' cytocompatibility towards cartilage (chondrocytes) and synovial membrane cells (synoviocytes) for a potential i.a. administration. The in vitro characterization of Rapamycin-loaded NPs had shown a suitable profile for an i.a. administration. In vitro biocompatibility of NPs was highlighted to 10 µM of Rapamycin for both synoviocytes and chondrocytes, but significant toxicity was observed with higher concentrations. Besides, synoviocytes are more sensitive to Rapamycin-loaded NPs than chondrocytes. Finally, we observed in vitro that an adapted formulated Rapamycin-loaded NPs could be safe at suitable i.a. injection concentrations. The toxic effect of Rapamycin encapsulated in these NPs on both articular cells was dose-dependent. After Rapamycin-loaded NPs i.a. administration, local retention, in situ safety, and systemic release should be evaluated with experimental in vivo models.

Abstract
Osteoarthritis (OA) is the most common articular disease in adults and has a current prevalence of 12% in the population over 65 years old. This chronic disease causes damage to articular cartilage and synovial joints, causing pain and leading to a negative impact on patients' function, decreasing quality of life. There are many limitations regarding OA conventional therapies-pharmacological therapy can cause gastrointestinal, renal, and cardiac adverse effects, and some of them could even be a threat to life. On the other hand, surgical options, such as microfracture, have been used for the last 20 years, but hyaline cartilage has a limited regeneration capacity. In recent years, the interest in new therapies, such as cell-based and cell-free therapies, has been considerably increasing. The purpose of this review is to describe and compare bioregenerative therapies' efficacy for OA, with particular emphasis on the use of mesenchymal stem cells (MSCs) and platelet-rich plasma (PRP). In OA, these therapies might be an alternative and less invasive treatment than surgery, and a more effective option than conventional therapies.

Abstract
Osteoarthritis (OA) is a progressive degenerative joint disease whose molecular mechanism has not been revealed clearly, and there is still no effective approach to cure OA completely. Recently, reactive oxygen species (ROS) are exposed as an important mediator of OA's inflammatory response, and it has been regarded as a therapeutic target for OA treatment. MnO2 nanoparticles possess good biocompatibility and can act as an artificial nanoenzyme to scavenge ROS in various diseases effectively. In this study, the modified Stöber method was applied to synthesize hollow MnO2 (H-MnO2) and H-MnO2 was modified with NH2-PEG-NH2, which possesses excellent biological stability and biocompatibility. It induced a change in the articular cartilage structure changes in vivo, with the knee tissue staining and micro-CT scanning of the whole knee suggesting that H-MnO2 nanoparticles could effectively remove ROS and significantly relieve the inflammatory response of OA without obvious side effects. This study reveals the therapeutic effects of MnO2-based nanomedicine toward OA, which provides potential alternative therapeutic options for patients with inflammation tissue.
