Abstract
Osteoarthritis (OA) is the most common form of arthritis, and its prevalence is expected to further increase as our society ages. Despite many approaches to cure OA, no drugs are currently proven to modulate the progression of OA. Nowadays, new OA treatment options are holistically developed and one of the approaches of treatment option is botanical drugs. Some botanical drugs for OA have shown both therapeutic effect comparable to refined drugs in small studies and fewer side effects. Hence, there are various health functional foods which are known to relieve symptoms of OA. However, since there are many botanical products, clinicians are not familiar to the efficacy of each botanical product, making it challenging to use them appropriately in clinical practice. Here, we summarize the botanical products available for treating OA, including prescription botanical drugs and health functional foods available in Korea. Further studies and the purification of effective molecules from botanical products will be necessary in future.

Heliyon 2023; 9:e21925. [PMID: 38034780 PMCID: PMC10682642 DOI: 10.1016/j.heliyon.2023.e21925] [Citation(s) in RCA: 0] [Impact Index Per Article: 0] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Key Words] [Track Full Text] [Figures] [Journal Information] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 07/03/2023] [Revised: 10/31/2023] [Accepted: 10/31/2023] [Indexed: 12/02/2023] Open
Abstract
Osteoclasts play a critical role in bone pathology frequently associated with autoimmune diseases. Studying the etiopathogenesis of these diseases and their clinical manifestations can involve in vitro osteoclastogenesis, an experimental technique that utilizes osteoclast precursors that are relatively easily accessible from peripheral blood or synovial fluid. However, the increasing number of methodical options to study osteoclastogenesis in vitro poses challenges in translating findings to clinical research and practice. This review compares and critically evaluates previous research work based on in vitro differentiation of human osteoclast precursors originating from patients, which aimed to explain autoimmune pathology in rheumatic and enteropathic diseases. The discussion focuses primarily on methodical differences between the studies, including the origin of osteoclast precursors, culture conditions, and methods for identifying osteoclasts and assessing their activity. Additionally, the review examines the clinical significance of the three most commonly used in vitro approaches: induced osteoclastogenesis, spontaneous osteoclastogenesis, and cell co-culture. By analyzing and integrating the gathered information, this review proposes general connections between different studies, even in cases where their results are seemingly contradictory. The derived conclusions and future directions aim to enhance our understanding of a potential and limitations of in vitro osteoclastogenesis and provide a foundation for discussing novel methods (such as osteoclastogenesis dynamic) and standardized approaches (such as spontaneous osteoclastogenesis) for future use in autoimmune disease research.

Identification of cuproptosis-related subtypes, characterization of immune microenvironment infiltration, and development of a prognosis model for osteoarthritis. Front Immunol 2023; 14:1178794. [PMID: 37809099 PMCID: PMC10551149 DOI: 10.3389/fimmu.2023.1178794] [Citation(s) in RCA: 0] [Impact Index Per Article: 0] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Key Words] [MESH Headings] [Track Full Text] [Figures] [Journal Information] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 03/03/2023] [Accepted: 08/07/2023] [Indexed: 10/10/2023] Open
Abstract
Background Osteoarthritis (OA) is a prevalent chronic joint disease with an obscure underlying molecular signature. Cuproptosis plays a crucial role in various biological processes. However, the association between cuproptosis-mediated immune infifiltration and OA progression remains unexplored. Therefore, this study elucidates the pathological process and potential mechanisms underlying cuproptosis in OA by constructing a columnar line graph model and performing consensus clustering analysis. Methods Gene expression profifile datasets GSE12021, GSE32317, GSE55235, and GSE55457 of OA were obtained from the comprehensive gene expression database. Cuproptosis signature genes were screened by random forest (RF) and support vector machine (SVM). A nomogram was developed based on cuproptosis signature genes. A consensus clustering was used to distinguish OA patients into different cuproptosis patterns. To quantify the cuproptosis pattern, a principal component analysis was developed to generate the cuproptosis score for each sample. Single-sample gene set enrichment analysis (ssGSEA) was used to provide the abundance of immune cells in each sample and the relationship between these significant cuproptosis signature genes and immune cells.To quantify the cuproptosis pattern, a principal component analysis technique was developed to generate the cuproptosis score for each sample. Cuproptosis-related genes were extracted and subjected to differential expression analysis to construct a disease prediction model and confifirmed by RT-qPCR. Results Seven cuproptosis signature genes were screened (DBT, LIPT1, GLS, PDHB, FDX1, DLAT, and PDHA1) to predict the risk of OA disease. A column line graph model was developed based on these seven cuproptosis signature genes, which may assist patients based on decision curve analysis. A consensus clustering method was used to distinguish patients with disorder into two cuproptosis patterns (clusters A and B). To quantify the cuproptosis pattern, a principal component analysis technique was developed to generate the cuproptosis score for each sample. Furthermore, the OA characteristics of patients in cluster A were associated with the inflflammatory factors IL-1b, IL-17, IL-21, and IL-22, suggesting that the cuproptosis signature genes play a vital role in the development of OA. Discussion In this study, a risk prediction model based on cuproptosis signature genes was established for the fifirst time, and accurately predicted OA risk. In addition, patients with OA were classifified into two cuproptosis molecule subtypes (clusters A and B); cluster A was highly associated with Th17 immune responses, with higher IL-1b, IL-17, and IL-21 IL-22 expression levels, while cluster B had a higher correlation with cuproptosis. Our analysis will help facilitate future research related cuproptosis-associated OA immunotherapy. However, the specifific mechanisms remain to be elucidated.

Abstract
Rheumatoid arthritis (RA) is a chronic immune disease involving the small joints, which often causes irreversible damage. In recent years, elevated interleukin 20 (IL-20) has been observed in synovial fluid, while IL-20 receptor overexpression has been observed in synovial cells. IL-20 is a pleiotropic cytokine that participates in various immune diseases. Further understanding of the relationship between IL-20 and RA can help to identify a potential clinical treatment for RA. This study demonstrated that IL-20 can regulate osteoclast differentiation and function in a dose-dependent manner, while influencing the expression of Notch signaling. Quantitative reverse transcription polymerase chain reaction and western blotting showed that γ-secretase-inhibiting drugs can reverse the effects of IL-20. The effects of Notch2 on IL-20-induced osteoclastogenesis were investigated by immunofluorescence and Notch2 gene silencing via transfection of small interfering RNA; the results showed that Notch2 obviously affected the expression levels of the key protein NFATc1 and downstream osteoclastic proteins. In conclusion, we found that IL-20 regulated the osteoclastogenesis in a dose-dependent manner via Notch signaling, primarily by means of Notch2 activity. This study may help to find new targets for RA treatment.

A New Concern in the Osteoimmunology Arena. Aging Dis 2021; 12:1150-1161.

Abstract
Cellular senescence is a biological process triggered in response to time-accumulated DNA damage, which prioritizes cell survival over cell function. Particularly, senescent T lymphocytes can be generated prematurely during chronic inflammatory diseases regardless of chronological aging. These senescent T lymphocytes are characterized by the loss of CD28 expression, a co-stimulatory receptor that mediates antigen presentation and effective T-cell activation. An increased number of premature senescent CD4+CD28- T lymphocytes has been frequently observed in osteolytic diseases, including rheumatoid arthritis, juvenile idiopathic arthritis, ankylosing spondylitis, osteopenia, osteoporosis, and osteomyelitis. Indeed, CD4+CD28- T lymphocytes produce higher levels of osteoclastogenic molecular mediators directly related to pathologic bone loss, such as tumor necrosis factor (TNF)-α, interleukin (IL)-17A, and receptor-activator of nuclear factor κB ligand (RANKL), as compared with regular CD4+CD28+ T lymphocytes. In addition, premature senescent CD8+CD28- T lymphocytes have been negatively associated with bone healing and regeneration by inhibiting osteoblast differentiation and mesenchymal stromal cell survival. Therefore, accumulated evidence supports the role of senescent T lymphocytes in osteoimmunology. Moreover, premature senescence of T-cells seems to be associated with the functional imbalance between the osteolytic T-helper type-17 (Th17) and bone protective T regulatory (Treg) lymphocytes, as well as the phenotypic instability of Treg lymphocytes responsible for its trans-differentiation into RANKL-producing exFoxp3Th17 cells, a key cellular phenomenon directly related to bone loss. Herein, we present a framework for the understanding of the pathogenic characteristics of T lymphocytes with a premature senescent phenotype; and particularly, we revise and discuss their role in the osteoimmunology of osteolytic diseases.

Abstract
Biomaterials as bone substitutes are always considered as foreign bodies that can trigger host immune responses. Traditional designing principles have been always aimed at minimizing the immune reactions by fabricating inert biomaterials. However, clinical evidence revealed that those methods still have limitations and many of which were only feasible in the laboratory. Currently, osteoimmunology, the very pioneering concept is drawing more and more attention-it does not simply regard the immune response as an obstacle during bone healing but emphasizes the intimate relationship of the immune and skeletal system, which includes diverse cells, cytokines, and signaling pathways. Properties of biomaterials like topography, wettability, surface charge, the release of cytokines, mediators, ions and other bioactive molecules can impose effects on immune responses to interfere with the skeletal system. Based on the bone formation mechanisms, the designing methods of the biomaterials change from immune evasive to immune reprogramming. Here, we discuss the osteoimmunomodulatory effects of the new modification strategies-adjusting properties of bone biomaterials to induce a favorable osteoimmune environment. Such strategies showed potential to benefit the development of bone materials and lay a solid foundation for the future clinical application.
