Abstract
The rat mono-iodoacetate (MIA) arthritis model has been used in studies on the hip, knee, and ankle joints. Few studies have explored its utility in shoulder arthritis research, and none have evaluated the effects of time and different MIA doses on arthritis progression. Therefore, we developed a rat MIA shoulder arthritis model to evaluate articular changes through radiological and histological analyses. Sprague-Dawley rats (n = 108) were equally divided into groups that were intra-articularly injected with 0.5 mg of MIA (in 50 µL of purified water), 2.0 mg of MIA (in 50 µL of purified water), or purified water (50 µL; sham group). Throughout the study period, 18 rats (six per group) were evaluated by computed tomography and assessed using the Larsen's classification system; 90 rats were further evaluated histologically using the Osteoarthritis Research Society International scoring system. Computed tomography revealed that the groups injected with MIA developed arthritis and osteophytes 14 days after injection, which progressed temporally. The Larsen's grades worsened over time; at all time points, the scores were higher in the group injected with 2.0 mg of MIA than in the group injected with 0.5 mg of MIA. Furthermore, concurrent with the worsening Larsen's grades, the Osteoarthritis Research Society International scores also significantly increased over time; at all time points, they were higher in the group injected with 2.0 mg of MIA than in the group injected with 0.5 mg of MIA. Our rat MIA shoulder arthritis model revealed radiologically and histologically confirmed temporal and MIA dose-dependent arthritic changes.

LncRNA MEG3 ameliorates NiO nanoparticles-induced pulmonary inflammatory damage via suppressing the p38 mitogen activated protein kinases pathway. ENVIRONMENTAL TOXICOLOGY 2022; 37:1058-1070. [PMID: 35006638 DOI: 10.1002/tox.23464] [Citation(s) in RCA: 5] [Impact Index Per Article: 2.5] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Key Words] [MESH Headings] [Track Full Text] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 08/27/2021] [Revised: 11/23/2021] [Accepted: 12/27/2021] [Indexed: 06/14/2023]
Abstract
The lung inflammatory damage could result from the nickel oxide nanoparticles (NiO NPs), in which the underlying mechanism is still unclear. This article explored the roles of long noncoding RNA maternally expressed gene 3 (lncRNA MEG3) and p38 mitogen activated protein kinases (p38 MAPK) pathway in pulmonary inflammatory injury induced by NiO NPs. Wistar rats were treated with NiO NPs suspensions (0.015, 0.06, and 0.24 mg/kg) by intratracheal instillation twice-weekly for 9 weeks. Meanwhile, A549 cells were treated with NiO NPs suspensions (25, 50, and 100 μg/ml) for 24 h. It can be concluded that the NiO NPs did trigger pulmonary inflammatory damage, which was confirmed by the histopathological examination, abnormal changes of inflammatory cells and inflammatory cytokines (IL-1β, IL-6, TGF-β1, TNF-α, IFN-γ, IL-10, CXCL-1 and CXCL-2) in bronchoalveolar lavage fluid (BALF), pulmonary tissue and cell culture supernatant. Furthermore, NiO NPs activated the p38 MAPK pathway and downregulated MEG3 in vivo and in vitro. However, p38 MAPK pathway inhibitor (10 μM SB203580) reversed the alterations in the expression levels of inflammatory cytokines induced by NiO NPs. Meanwhile, over-expressed MEG3 significantly suppressed NiO NPs-induced p38 MAPK pathway activation and inflammatory cytokines changes. Overall, the above results proved that over-expression of lncRNA MEG3 reduced NiO NPs-induced inflammatory damage by preventing the activation of p38 MAPK pathway.
