Abstract
Osteoarthritis (OA) is a chronic joint disease characterized by progressive cartilage degeneration, which imposes a heavy physical and financial burden on the middle-aged and elderly population. As the pathogenesis of OA has not been fully elucidated, it is of great importance to develop targeted therapeutic or preventive medications. Traditional therapeutic drugs, such as non-steroidal anti-inflammatory drugs, steroids and opioids, have significant side effects, making the exploration for safe and effective alternative therapeutic drugs urgent. In recent years, many studies have reported the role of plant-derived polysaccharides in anti-inflammation, anti-oxidation, regulation of chondrocyte metabolism and proliferation, and cartilage protection, and have demonstrated their great potential in the treatment of OA. Therefore, by focusing on studies related to the intervention of plant-derived polysaccharides in OA, including in vivo and in vitro experiments, this review aimed to classify and summarize the existing research findings according to different mechanisms of action. In addition, reports on plant-derived polysaccharides as nanoparticles were also explored. Then, candidate monomers and theoretical bases were provided for the further development and application of novel drugs in the treatment of OA.

J Med Food 2022; 25:239-250. [PMID: 35235416 DOI: 10.1089/jmf.2021.k.0152] [Citation(s) in RCA: 3] [Impact Index Per Article: 1.5] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Key Words] [Track Full Text] [Journal Information] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Indexed: 11/12/2022] Open
Abstract
The aim of this study was to investigate the effects of krill oil (FJH-KO) in monoiodoacetate (MIA)-induced osteoarthritis in rat models, and H2O2- or lipopolysaccharide (LPS)-treated primary chondrocytes and the SW982 synovial cell line. We found that 150 mg/kg b.w. FJH-KO supplementation increased running speed, stride, and foot pressure in MIA-induced osteoarthritic rats. In the H2O2-treated SW982 synovial cell line and primary chondrocytes, FJH-KO treatment prevented cell death and suppressed matrix degradation by increasing the levels of anabolic factors of cartilage tissue, including aggrecan, collagen type Ⅰ, collagen type Ⅱ, tissue inhibitors of metalloproteinase (TIMP)-1, and TIMP-3, and decreasing those of catabolic factors of cartilage tissue, including phosphorylation of Smad, MMP-3, and MMP-13. In addition, FJH-KO treatment suppressed the activation of inflammation and apoptosis pathways in the LPS-treated SW982 synovial cell line and primary chondrocytes. We suggest that FJH-KO supplementation may help prevent osteoarthritis progression because of its direct effects on inflammation and apoptosis of chondrocytes.

[PMID: 34359532 PMCID: PMC8306711 DOI: 10.3390/foods10071660] [Citation(s) in RCA: 4] [Impact Index Per Article: 1.3] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Key Words] [Track Full Text] [Download PDF] [Figures] [Journal Information] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 06/19/2021] [Revised: 07/13/2021] [Accepted: 07/15/2021] [Indexed: 02/07/2023] Open
Abstract
The brown seaweed Hizikia fusiformis (syn. Sargassum fusiforme), commonly known as “Hijiki”, has been utilized in traditional cuisine and medicine in East Asian countries for several centuries. H. fusiformis has attracted much attention owing to its rich nutritional and pharmacological properties. However, there has been no comprehensive review of the nutritional and pharmacological properties of H. fusiformis. The aim of this systematic review was to provide detailed information from the published literature on the nutritional and pharmacological properties of H. fusiformis. A comprehensive online search of the literature was conducted by accessing databases, such as PubMed, SpringerLink, ScienceDirect, and Google Scholar, for published studies on the nutritional and pharmacological properties of H. fusiformis between 2010 and 2021. A total of 916 articles were screened from all the databases using the preferred reporting items for systematic reviews and meta-analyses method. Screening based on the setdown criteria resulted in 59 articles, which were used for this review. In this review, we found that there has been an increase in the number of publications on the pharmacological and nutritional properties of H. fusiformis over the last 10 years. In the last 10 years, studies have focused on the proximate, mineral, polysaccharide, and bioactive compound composition, and pharmacological properties, such as antioxidant, anticancer, antitumor, anti-inflammatory, photoprotective, neuroprotective, antidiabetic, immunomodulatory, osteoprotective, and gastroprotective properties of H. fusiformis extracts. Overall, further studies and strategies are required to develop H. fusiformis as a promising resource for the nutrition and pharmacological industries.

Abstract
Sargassum fusiforme polysaccharides, acidic water-soluble polysaccharides extract from Sargassum fusiforme, are mainly composed of alginic acid, fucoidan and laminaran. Alginic acid is carboxyl-containing polysaccharide formed by joining β-D-mannuronic acid and α-L-guluronic acid through β-(1→4)/α-(1→4) glycosidic bond. Fucoidan, a natural water-soluble sulfated heteropolysaccharide with fucose and sulfuric acid groups as the core structure, is mainly linked by L-fucose through α-(1→3) glycosidic bond and has the strongest biological activity. Laminaran is mainly composed of β-D-glucose through β-(1→3) glycosidic bond linkage. Sargassum fusiforme polysaccharides have a variety of pharmacological activities, including antioxidant, anti-tumor, promoting immunity, anti-aging, prompting bone growth, lowering blood glucose, anti-coagulation, anti-virus, anti-bacteria, anti-fatigue, promoting growth and development, and skin protection. These activities are closely related to the functions of fucoidan in Sargassum fusiforme polysaccharides, which fucoidan is able to strengthen immune system and antioxidation in human body. In this review, the composition, the isolation and purification, and the biological activities of Sargassum fusiforme polysaccharides are discussed and can bereference for further study.

Mori Folium water extract alleviates articular cartilage damages and inflammatory responses in monosodium iodoacetate‑induced osteoarthritis rats. Mol Med Rep 2017; 16:3841-3848. [PMID: 29067461 PMCID: PMC5646961 DOI: 10.3892/mmr.2017.7075] [Citation(s) in RCA: 18] [Impact Index Per Article: 2.6] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Track Full Text] [Download PDF] [Figures] [Journal Information] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 03/08/2017] [Accepted: 06/21/2017] [Indexed: 01/06/2023] Open
Abstract
Mori folium, the leaf of Morus alba L. (Moraceae), has been widely used in traditional medicine for the treatment of various diseases. It has been recently reported that Mori folium possesses potential chondroprotective effects in interleukin (IL)-1β-stimulated human chondrocytes; however, its protective and therapeutic potential against osteoarthritis (OA) in an animal model remains unclear. In this study, as part of an ongoing screening program to evaluate the anti-osteoarthritic potential of Mori folium, the protective effects of a water extract of Mori folium (MF) on cartilage degradation and inflammatory responses in a monosodium iodoacetate (MIA)-induced OA rat model were evaluated. The results demonstrated that administration of MF had a tendency to attenuate the damage to articular cartilage induced by MIA, as determined by knee joint swelling and the histological grade of OA. The elevated levels of matrix metalloproteinases-13 and two bio-markers for the diagnosis and progression of OA, such as the cartilage oligomeric matrix protein and C-telopeptide of type II collagen, were markedly ameliorated by MF administration in MIA-induced OA rats. In addition, MF significantly suppressed the production of pro-inflammatory cytokines, including IL-1β, IL-6 and tumor necrosis factor-α. MF also effectively inhibited the expression of inducible nitric oxide (NO) synthase and cyclooxygenase-2, thus inhibiting the release of NO and prostaglandin E2. Although further work is required to fully understand the critical role and clinical usefulness, these findings indicate that MF may be a potential therapeutic option for the treatment of OA.

Abstract
Schisandrae Fructus, the fruit of Schisandra chinensis (Turcz.) Baill., is widely used in traditional medicine for the treatment of a number of chronic diseases. Although, Schisandrae Fructus was recently reported to attenuate the interleukin (IL)-1β-induced inflammatory response in chondrocytes in vitro, its protective and therapeutic potential against osteoarthritis (OA) in an animal model remains unclear. Therefore, we investigated the effects of the ethanol extract of Schisandrae Fructus (SF) on inflammatory responses and cartilage degradation in a monosodium iodoacetate (MIA)-induced OA rat model. Our results demonstrated that administration with SF had a tendency to attenuate MIA-induced damage of articular cartilage as determined by a histological grade of OA. SF significantly suppressed the production of pro-inflammatory cytokines such as interleukin (IL)-1β, IL-6, and tumor necrosis factor-α in MIA-induced OA rats. SF also effectively inhibited expression of inducible nitric oxide (NO) synthase and cyclooxygenase-2, thereby inhibiting the release of NO and prostaglandin E2. In addition, the elevated levels of matrix metalloproteinases-13 and two biomarkers for diagnosis and progression of OA, such as cartilage oligomeric matrix protein and C-telopeptide of type II collagen, were markedly ameliorated by SF administration. These findings indicate that SF could be a potential candidate for the treatment of OA.

Abstract
This study aimed to assess whether Ginsenoside Rg1 (Rg1) inhibits inflammatory responses in human chondrocytes and reduces articular cartilage damage in a rat model of osteoarthritis (OA). Gene expression and protein levels of type II collagen, aggrecan, matrix metalloproteinase (MMP)-13 and cyclooxygenase-2 (COX-2) were determined in vitro by quantitative real-time-polymerase chain reaction and Western blotting. Prostaglandin E2 (PGE2) amounts in the culture medium were determined by enzyme-linked immunosorbent assay (ELISA). For in vivo assessment, a rat model of OA was generated by anterior cruciate ligament transection (ACLT). Four weeks after ACLT, Rg1 (30 or 60 mg/kg) or saline was administered by gavage once a day for eight consecutive weeks. Joint damage was analyzed by histology and immunohistochemistry. Ginsenoside Rg1 inhibited Interleukin (IL)-1β-induced chondrocyte gene and protein expressions of MMP-13, COX-2 and PGE2, and prevented type II collagen and aggrecan degradation, in a dose-dependent manner. Administration of Ginsenoside Rg1 to OA rats attenuated cartilage degeneration, and reduced type II collagen loss and MMP-13 levels. These findings demonstrated that Ginsenoside Rg1 can inhibit inflammatory responses in human chondrocytes in vitro and reduce articular cartilage damage in vivo, confirming the potential therapeutic value of Ginsenoside Rg1 in OA.
