Objective Temporomandibular joint osteoarthritis (TMJOA) seriously influences the quality of life patients. Chondrocyte mitochondrial dysfunction and pyroptosis play an important role in development osteoarthritis, but their TMJOA pathogenesis is elusive. We aimed to probe into mechanism TMJOA. Design rat models were established by unilateral anterior crossbite operation. Pathological changes cartilage tissues observed hematoxylin-eosin staining, evaluated immunohistochemistry. The biological function ZC3H13 determined cell experiments. Results discovered that occurred rats. expression was observably upregulated Further experiments showed interference restrained chondrocytes. RNA sequencing revealed NSUN4 significantly increased chondrocytes after knockdown. Silencing remarkably diminished level N6-methyladenosine (m6A) modification. Moreover, notably Conclusion Our study ZC3H13-mediated repressed progression modulating chondrocyte m6A-dependent manner, which may offer a potential strategy for treatment.

Nicotine contributes to the causation of atherosclerosis, which prominent cellular components are macrophages. Long non-coding RNAs (lncRNAs) play an important role in regulating cell functions such as proliferation, differentiation and programmed death. However, function mechanism lncRNAs nicotine-induced macrophage pyroptosis has not been reported. We screened deferentially expressed human carotid artery plaque (GSE97210) verified them Results showed only LINC01272 was up-regulated a dose-dependent manner The immunofluorescence staining result confirmed that interfering inhibited pyroptosis. Through bioinformatics analysis, dual luciferase reporter gene assay qPCR, we identified miR-515 significantly negatively correlated with expression LINC01272, KLF6 is target miR-515. Furthermore, our results demonstrated LINC01272/miR-515/KLF6 axis meditated In addition, peripheral blood mononuclear cells smoking populations, GSDMD-N, NLRP3, increased, while level reduced. This study nicotine increases competitively bind macrophages, reducing inhibitory effect on its KLF6, ultimately induces

Knee osteoarthritis (KOA) is characterized by joint wear and degeneration. Unfortunately, the medical community currently lacks effective treatment options for this disease. Suspension exercise therapy considered an form of non-weight-bearing treating KOA. However, its mechanism intervention in KOA unclear. Therefore, study aimed to evaluate protective effects on rats with attempted explore underlying mechanisms.In study, a papain-induced model was constructed, pathological changes cartilage tissue were observed hematoxylin eosin (H&E) staining scored according Mankin scoring principle. The serum levels interleukin (IL)-1β, IL-6, tumor necrosis factor-α (TNF-α) detected enzyme-linked immunosorbent assay. Reverse transcription-quantitative polymerase chain reaction Western blotting used detect expression mRNA proteins TLR4/MyD88/NF-κB signaling pathway.H&E score data confirmed that significantly improved articular degradation compared group. Further, we differentially reduced IL-1β, TNF-α. Mechanistically, downregulated gene protein TLR4, MyD88, NF-κB tissue.Non-weight-bearing resulted progression modulating pathway decreasing inflammatory cytokines TNF-α slow down degeneration cartilage.

Background Osteoarthritis (OA) is the most common joint degenerative disease, and so far, there no effective therapy to prevent or delay its development. Considerable attention now being given impact of m6A RNA methylation modification on disease immune regulation. However, much remains unknown about function in OA. Methods A total 63 OA 59 healthy samples were applied comprehensively examine regulators mediated pattern OA, evaluate impacts distinct patterns characteristics microenvironment, including infiltration cells, responses human leukocyte antigen (HLAs) genes expression. In addition, we screened out phenotype-related further explored their potential biological functions. At last, verified expression key associations with vitro . Results Most was differentially expressed compared normal tissues. Based six hub-m6A identified as abnormally samples, developed a classifier distinguish patients from individuals. We noted that correlated regulators. For instance, YTHDF2 had strongest significantly positive correlation regulatory T cells (Tregs) IGFBP2 negatively associated dendritic (DCs), which confirmed by immunohistochemistry (IHC) staining. Two determined: B higher infiltrating immunocytes more active than A, two differed HLA genes. also 1,592 could mediate synovitis cartilage degradation PI3K-Akt signaling pathway. Quantitative real-time polymerase chain reaction (qRT-PCR) results indicated overexpressed, while mRNA decreased consistent our findings. Conclusion Our research proves essential helps explain mechanism behind it, may open up new direction for precise immunotherapy osteoarthritis.
