Abstract
Osteoarthritis (OA) synovial membrane is mainly characterized by low-grade inflammation, hyperplasia with increased cell proliferation and fibrosis. We previously underscored a critical role for CEMIP in fibrosis of OA cartilage. However, its role in OA synovial membrane remains unknown. An in vitro model with fibroblast-like synoviocytes from OA patients and an in vivo model with collagenase-induced OA mice were used to evaluate CEMIP-silencing effects on inflammation, hyperplasia and fibrosis. Our results showed that i. CEMIP expression was increased in human and mouse inflamed synovial membrane; ii. CEMIP regulated the inflammatory response pathway and inflammatory cytokines production in vitro and in vivo; iii. CEMIP induced epithelial to mesenchymal transition pathway and fibrotic markers in vitro and in vivo; iv. CEMIP increased cell proliferation and synovial hyperplasia; v. CEMIP expression was increased by inflammatory cytokines and by TGF-β signaling; vi. anti-fibrotic drugs decreased CEMIP expression. All these findings highlighted the central role of CEMIP in OA synovial membrane development and underscored that targeting CEMIP could be a new therapeutic approach.

Association between Markers of Synovial Inflammation, Matrix Turnover and Symptoms in Knee Osteoarthritis: A Cross-Sectional Study. Cells 2021; 10:cells10071826. [PMID: 34359996 PMCID: PMC8307303 DOI: 10.3390/cells10071826] [Citation(s) in RCA: 8] [Impact Index Per Article: 2.7] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Key Words] [Track Full Text] [Download PDF] [Figures] [Journal Information] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 06/12/2021] [Revised: 07/12/2021] [Accepted: 07/15/2021] [Indexed: 01/15/2023] Open
Abstract
To investigate the association between markers of synovial inflammation and matrix turnover (MRI-based and serum biomarkers) and knee symptoms in established knee osteoarthritis (KOA). This cross-sectional study utilised data from a randomised, multicentre placebo-controlled trial (UK-VIDEO) of vitamin D therapy in symptomatic KOA. Data on serum biomarkers, type III collagen degradation (C3M), metabolite of C-reactive protein (CRPM) and cartilage oligomeric matrix protein (COMP), were available at baseline whilst contrast-enhanced (CE) MRI data were acquired in a subsample at baseline and annually. Knee symptoms were assessed using WOMAC at all visits. We examined the cross-sectional association between knee symptoms and three MRI-based and three serum markers of synovitis and matrix turnover, respectively. A total of 447 participants were included in the serum and 136 participants in the MRI analyses. MRI-defined medial perimeniscal synovitis was positively associated with knee pain and, suprapatellar and medial perimeniscal synovitis with knee function in multivariate analysis. We observed a statistically significant, negative association between a higher concentration of serum C3M and CRPM and knee pain, respectively. Furthermore, the highest CRPM quartile was negatively associated with knee function. Our findings suggest that, in established painful radiographic KOA, MRI-defined medial perimeniscal and suprapatellar synovitis were positively associated with knee symptoms. Serum-based C3M and CRPM markers were negatively associated with knee symptoms. Pain fluctuations are common in KOA and a better understanding of the relationship between markers of synovitis and matrix turnover and knee symptoms would facilitate a more accurate assessment of temporal changes in disease progression.

Abstract
Joint capsule fibrosis caused by excessive inflammation results in post-traumatic joint contracture (PTJC). Transforming growth factor (TGF)-β1 plays a key role in PTJC by regulating fibroblast functions, however, cytokine-induced TGF-β1 expression in specific cell types remains poorly characterized. Macrophage migration inhibitory factor (MIF) is a proinflammatory cytokine involved in inflammation- and fibrosis-associated pathophysiology. In this study, we investigated whether MIF can facilitate TGF-β1 production from fibroblasts and regulate joint capsule fibrosis following PTJC. Our data demonstrated that MIF and TGF-β1 significantly increased in fibroblasts of injured rat posterior joint capsules. Treatment the lesion sites with MIF inhibitor 4-Iodo-6-phenylpyrimidine (4-IPP) reduced TGF-β1 production and relieved joint capsule inflammation and fibrosis. In vitro, MIF facilitated TGF-β1 expression in primary joint capsule fibroblasts by activating mitogen-activated protein kinase (MAPK) (P38, ERK) signaling through coupling with membrane surface receptor CD74, which in turn affected fibroblast functions and promoted MIF production. Our results reveal a novel function of trauma-induced MIF in the occurrence and development of joint capsule fibrosis. Further investigation of the underlying mechanism may provide potential therapeutic targets for PTJC.

Abstract
Osteoarthritis (OA) is a chronic degenerative joint disease where the main characteristics include cartilage degeneration and synovial membrane inflammation. These changes in the knee joint eventually dampen the function of the joint and restrict joint movement, which eventually leads to a stage where total joint replacement is the only treatment option. While much is still unknown about the pathogenesis and progression mechanism of OA, joint fibrosis can be a critical issue for better understanding this disease. Synovial fibrosis and the generation of fibrocartilage are the two main fibrosis-related characteristics that can be found in OA. However, these two processes remain mostly misunderstood. In this review, we focus on the fibrosis process in OA, especially in the cartilage and the synovium tissue, which are the main tissues involved in OA.

Tomlinson J, Zwirner J, Ondruschka B, Prietzel T, Hammer N. Innervation of the hip joint capsular complex: A systematic review of histological and immunohistochemical studies and their clinical implications for contemporary treatment strategies in total hip arthroplasty. PLoS One 2020; 15:e0229128. [PMID: 32101545 PMCID: PMC7043757 DOI: 10.1371/journal.pone.0229128] [Citation(s) in RCA: 11] [Impact Index Per Article: 2.8] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [MESH Headings] [Track Full Text] [Download PDF] [Figures] [Journal Information] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 05/20/2019] [Accepted: 01/30/2020] [Indexed: 01/17/2023] Open
Abstract
The hip joint capsule contributes to the stability of the hip joint and lower extremity, yet this structure is incised and often removed during total hip arthroplasty (THA). Increasing incidence of osteoarthritis is accompanied by a dramatic rise in THAs over the last few decades. Consequently, to improve this treatment, THA with capsular repair has evolved. This partial restoration of physiological hip stability has resulted in a substantial reduction in post-operative dislocation rates compared to conventional THA without capsular repair. A further reason for the success of this procedure is thought to be the preservation of the innervation of the capsule. A systematic review of studies investigating the innervation of the hip joint capsular complex and pseudocapsule with histological techniques was performed, as this is not well established. The literature was sought from databases Amed, Embase and Medline via OVID, PubMed, ScienceDirect, Scopus and Web of Science; excluding articles without a histological component and those involving animals. A total of 21 articles on the topic were identified. The literature indicates two primary outcomes and potential clinical implications of the innervation of the capsule. Firstly, a role in the mechanics of the hip joint, as mechanoreceptors may be present in the capsule. However, the nomenclature used to describe the distribution of the innervation is inconsistent. Furthermore, the current literature is unable to reliably confirm the proprioceptive role of the capsule, as no immunohistochemical study to date has reported type I-III mechanoreceptors in the capsule. Secondly, the capsule may play a role in pain perception, as the density of innervation appears to be altered in painful individuals. Also, increasing age may indicate requirements for different strategies to surgically manage the hip capsule. However, this requires further study, as well as the role of innervation according to sex, specific pathology and other morphometric variables. Increased understanding may highlight the requirement for capsular repair following THA, how this technique may be developed and the contribution of the capsule to joint function and stability.
