Dual-speci city tyrosine phosphorylation regulated kinase 1A (DYRK1A) signaling is involved in the dynamic balance of catabolism and anabolism in articular chondrocytes. This study aimed to investigate the roles and mechanism of DYRK1A in the pathogenesis of osteoarthritis (OA). MethodsThe expressions of DYRK1A and its downstream signal epidermal growth factor receptor (EGFR) were detected in the cartilage of adult wild-type mice with destabilized medial meniscus (DMM) and articular cartilage of patients with OA. We measured the progression of osteoarthritis in chondrocyte-speci c knockout DYRK1A(DYRK1A-cKO) mice after DMM surgery. Knee cartilage was histologically scored and assessed the effects of DYRK1A deletion on chondrocyte catabolism and anabolism. The effect of inhibiting EGFR signaling in chondrocytes from DYRK1A-cKO mice was analyzed. ResultsTrauma-induced OA mice and OA patients showed down-regulation of DYRK1A and EGFR signaling pathways. Conditional DYRK1A deletion aggravates DMM-induced cartilage degeneration, reduces the thickness of the super cial cartilage and increases the number of hypertrophic chondrocytes. The expression of collagen type II, p-ERK and aggrecan was also down-regulated, and the expression of collagen type X was up-regulated in the articular cartilage of these mice. ConclusionOur ndings suggest that DYRK1A delays the progression of knee osteoarthritis in mice, at least in part, by maintaining EGFR-ERK signaling in articular chondrocytes.
BackgroundShoulder arthroscopic surgery is a common surgical method used in orthopedics. However, severe postoperative pain can significantly limit the early joint movement of patients and adversely affect the impact of the surgery. At present, there is no consistent and effective analgesic scheme for the management of postoperative pain after arthroscopic surgery of the shoulder.PurposeThe aim of this study was to search for the most effective analgesic scheme to control pain in the perioperative period of arthroscopic surgery of the shoulder.Study DesignNetwork meta-analysis.MethodsWe searched 5 different databases (i.e., Medline, PubMed, Embase, Web of Science, and the Cochrane Library) from January 2011 to January 2021 for English literature. Thereafter, we sifted out randomized controlled trials (RCTs), which compared different intervention schemes for pain management after shoulder arthroscopy and selected only 12 h, 24 h, or 48 h after the patient leaves the operating room as an optimal period for administration of analgesic intervention schemes. Only patients with shoulder disease who have undergone arthroscopic shoulder surgery were included in this study. The Cochrane “risk of bias” was used for the quality assessment. Moreover, some additional tests were performed to enhance the credibility of the results.ResultsTwenty-nine RCTs involving 1,885 patients were included in this frequentist network meta-analysis (NMA). These articles mainly were divided into two distinct groups, namely, the nerve block group and the non-nerve block group. Regarding the nerve block group, at postoperative 12 h, the intervention suprascapular nerve block + interscalene nerve block (SSNB + INB) was ranked first, whereas INB + intra-articular injection (INB + IAI) was ranked first at 24 h and 48 h postoperation. In the non-nerve block group, external application (EA) was ranked first at postoperative 12 h, but oral administration (OA) exhibited a better analgesic effect at postoperative 24 h and postoperative 48 h.ConclusionWe conclude that the analgesic effect of SSNB+INB was the best at postoperative 12 h, and INB+IAI was the best at postoperative 24 h and 48 h in the nerve block group. For the non-nerve block group, the effect of EA was the best at postoperative 12 h, and the analgesic effect of OA at postoperative 24 h and 48 h was significantly better than any other interventions.Systematic Review Registrationhttps://www.crd.york.ac.uk/prospero/, identifier: CRD42021286777.
Osteoarthritis (OA) is a common disease in orthopedics. RNA N6-methyladenosine (m6A) exerts an essential effect in a variety of biological processes in the eukaryotes. In this study, we determined the effect of m6A regulators in the OA along with performing the subtype classification. Differential analysis of OA and normal samples in the database of Gene Expression Omnibus identified 9 significantly differentially expressed m6A regulators. These regulators were monitored by a random forest algorithm so as to evaluate the risk of developing OA disease. On the basis of these 9 moderators, a nomogram was established. The results of decision curve analysis suggested that the patients could benefit from a nomogram model. The OA sample was classified as 2 m6A models through a consensus clustering algorithm in accordance with these 9 regulators. These 2 m6A patterns were then assessed with principal component analysis. We also determined the m6A scores for the 2 m6A patterns and their correlation with immune infiltration. The results indicated that type A had a higher m6A score than type B. Thus, we suggest that the m6A pattern may provide a new approach for diagnose and provide novel ideas for molecular targeted therapy of OA.

These regulators were monitored by a random forest algorithm so as to evaluate the risk of developing OA disease. On the basis of these 9 moderators, a nomogram was established. The results of decision curve analysis (DCA) suggested that the patients could benefit from a nomogram model. The OA sample was classified as 2 m6A models through a consensus clustering algorithm in accordance with these 9 regulators. These 2 m6A patterns were then assessed with principal component analysis (PCA). We also determined the m6A scores for the 2 m6A patterns and their correlation with immune infiltration. The results indicated that type A had a higher m6A score than type B. Thus, we suggest that the m6A pattern may provide a new approach for diagnose and provide novel ideas for molecular targeted therapy of OA.
