Abstract
OBJECTIVE Osteoarthritis (OA) is a degenerative joint disease that affects elderly populations worldwide, causing pain and disability. Alteration of the fibroblast-like synoviocytes (FLSs) phenotype leads to an imbalance in the synovial inflammatory microenvironment, which accelerates the progression of OA. Despite this knowledge, the specific molecular mechanisms of the synovium that affect OA are still unclear. METHODS Both in vitro and in vivo experiments were undertaken to explore the role of ADAM8 playing in the synovial inflammatory of OA. A small interfering RNA (siRNA) was targeting ADAM8 to intervene. High-throughput sequencing was also used. RESULTS Our sequencing analysis revealed significant upregulation of the MAPK signaling cascade and ADAM8 gene expression in IL-1β-induced FLSs. The in vitro results demonstrated that ADAM8 blockade inhibited the invasion and migration of IL-1β-induced FLSs, while also suppressing the expression of related matrix metallomatrix proteinases (MMPs). Furthermore, our study revealed that inhibiting ADAM8 weakened the inflammatory protein secretion and MAPK signaling networks in FLSs. Mechanically, it revealed that inhibiting ADAM8 had a significant effect on the expression of migration-related signaling proteins, specifically FSCN1. When siADAM8 was combined with BDP-13176, a FSCN1 inhibitor, the migration and invasion of FLSs was further inhibited. These results suggest that FSCN1 is a crucial downstream factor of ADAM8 in regulating the biological phenotypes of FLSs. The in vivo experiments demonstrated that ADAM8 inhibition effectively reduced synoviocytes inflammation and alleviated the progression of OA in rats. CONCLUSIONS ADAM8 could be a promising therapeutic target for treating OA by targeting synovial inflammation.

Abstract
Under diabetic conditions, blood glucose fluctuations and exacerbated immunopathological inflammatory environments pose significant challenges to periosteal regenerative repair strategies. Responsive immune regulation in damaged tissues is critical for the immune microenvironment, osteogenesis, and angiogenesis stabilization. Considering the high-glucose microenvironment of such acute injury sites, a functional glucose-responsive immunomodulation-assisted periosteal regeneration composite material-PLA(Polylactic Acid)/COLI(Collagen I)/Lipo(Liposome)-APY29 (PCLA)-is constructed. Aside from stimulating osteogenic differentiation, owing to the presence of surface self-assembled type I collagen in the scaffolds, PCLA can directly respond to focal area high-glucose microenvironments. The PCLA scaffolds trigger the release of APY29-loaded liposomes, shifting the macrophages toward the M2 phenotype, inhibiting the release of inflammatory cytokines, improving the bone immune microenvironment, and promoting osteogenic differentiation and angiogenesis. Bioinformatics analyses show that PCLA enhances bone repair by inhibiting the inflammatory signal pathway regulating the polarization direction and promoting osteogenic and angiogenic gene expression. In the calvarial periosteal defect model of diabetic rats, PCLA scaffolds induce M2 macrophage polarization and improve the inflammatory microenvironment, significantly accelerating periosteal repair. Overall, the PCLA scaffold material regulates immunity in fluctuating high-glucose inflammatory microenvironments, achieves relatively stable and favorable osteogenic microenvironments, and facilitates the effective design of functionalized biomaterials for bone regeneration therapy in patients with diabetes.

Abstract
Rheumatoid arthritis (RA) is characterized by joint synovitis and bone destruction, the etiology of which remains to be explored. Many types of cells are involved in the progression of RA joint inflammation, among which the overactivation of M1 macrophages and osteoclasts has been thought to be an essential cause of joint inflammation and bone destruction. Glioma-associated oncogene homolog 1 (GLI1) has been revealed to be closely linked to bone metabolism. In this study, GLI1 expression in the synovial tissue of RA patients was positively correlated with RA-related scores and was highly expressed in collagen-induced arthritis (CIA) mouse articular macrophage-like cells. The decreased expression and inhibition of nuclear transfer of GLI1 downregulated macrophage M1 polarization and osteoclast activation, the effect of which was achieved by modulation of DNA methyltransferases (DNMTs) via transcriptional regulation and protein interactions. By pharmacological inhibition of GLI1, the proportion of proinflammatory macrophages and the number of osteoclasts were significantly reduced, and the joint inflammatory response and bone destruction in CIA mice were alleviated. This study clarified the mechanism of GLI1 in macrophage phenotypic changes and activation of osteoclasts, suggesting potential applications of GLI1 inhibitors in the clinical treatment of RA.

Abstract
Over the last decade, adipose-derived stem cells (ADSCs) have attracted increasing attention in the field of regenerative medicine. ADSCs appear to be the most advantageous cell type for regenerative therapies owing to their easy accessibility, multipotency, and active paracrine activity. This review highlights current challenges in translating ADSC-based therapies into clinical settings and discusses novel strategies to overcome the limitations of ADSCs. To further establish ADSC-based therapies as an emerging platform for regenerative medicine, this review also provides an update on the advancements in this field, including fat grafting, wound healing, bone regeneration, skeletal muscle repair, tendon reconstruction, cartilage regeneration, cardiac repair, and nerve regeneration. ADSC-based therapies are expected to be more tissue-specific and increasingly important in regenerative medicine.
