RESUMEN
BACKGROUND:Osteoarthritis is one of the most common senile chronic degenerative diseases in China.Due to its complex pathogenesis and cellular molecular communication pathways,there is currently no effective method to slow down the progression of osteoarthritis.Studies have found that transforming growth factor-β is one of the key factors in the maintenance and regulation of joint stability and plays a significant role in the formation of early joints,as well as the development of bone and cartilage,and the remodeling of joints at various stages. OBJECTIVE:To review the regulatory role of the transforming growth factor-β subfamily in the occurrence and development of osteoarthritis,both domestically and internationally in recent years,to analyze the impacts it has at different stages of osteoarthritis,and to explore the potential application prospects of transforming growth factor-β in the clinical treatment of osteoarthritis,with a view to informing clinical treatment protocols.. METHODS:The relevant articles were searched by computer from CNKI Database and PubMed Database.The search terms were"osteoarthritis,transforming growth factor,signaling pathway,bone remodeling,cartilage degeneration,angiogenesis,treatment"in Chinese and English,respectively.Finally,57 articles were included for review. RESULTS AND CONCLUSION:The pathogenesis of osteoarthritis remains a subject of ongoing exploration with no unified consensus.Numerous studies highlight the close correlation between osteoarthritis and cytokines,focusing on the transforming growth factor-β superfamily as a pivotal mechanism and therapeutic breakthrough.Transforming growth factor-β plays a crucial role in early joint cartilage formation and maintenance,promoting cartilage repair.However,post-joint formation,its protective effect weakens,leading to potential destructive consequences.This dual regulatory role is a current clinical treatment focus,necessitating further research to delineate its application scope for standardized protocols.Highly active transforming growth factor-β participates in the regulation of bone cells,osteoblasts,and osteoclasts under mechanical stress,and intervenes in the subsequent remodeling of bone microstructure.Specific inhibitors present potential targeted therapeutics,yet their safety and efficacy in clinical settings require refinement.Vascular proliferation may serve as a potential disruptive pathway in transforming growth factor-β-mediated cartilage degeneration and subchondral bone remodeling.Abnormal communication pathways can further disrupt the homeostasis of the microenvironment of osteochondral units,thereby accelerating key pathological progressions of osteoarthritis.Research on transforming growth factor-β in osteoarthritic contexts is comprehensive,holding broad clinical application prospects.Drugs related to transforming growth factor-β are in clinical trial phases,but addressing potential impacts on other tissues and precise control of targeted delivery are critical concerns.As research advances,there is optimism for innovative breakthroughs in slowing the progression of osteoarthritis in the future.
RESUMEN
OBJECTIVE@#To summarize the regulatory effect of non-coding RNA (ncRNA) on type H vessels angiogenesis of bone.@*METHODS@#Recent domestic and foreign related literature about the regulation of ncRNA in type H vessels angiogenesis was widely reviewed and summarized.@*RESULTS@#Type H vessels is a special subtype of bone vessels with the ability to couple bone formation. At present, the research on ncRNA regulating type H vessels angiogenesis in bone diseases mainly focuses on microRNA, long ncRNA, and small interfering RNA, which can affect the expressions of hypoxia inducible factor 1α, platelet derived growth factor BB, slit guidance ligand 3, and other factors through their own unique ways of action, thus regulating type H vessels angiogenesis and participating in the occurrence and development of bone diseases.@*CONCLUSION@#At present, the mechanism of ncRNA regulating bone type H vessels angiogenesis has been preliminarily explored. With the deepening of research, ncRNA is expected to be a new target for the diagnosis and treatment of vascular related bone diseases.
