Abstract:
Objective: To observe the influence of matrix metalloproteinases-2 ( MMP-2 ) , monocyte chemoattractant protein-1 ( MCP-1 ) , CD47 , L-selectin and advanced oxidation proteinproducts ( AOPP ) in osteoarthritis and the intervention of curcumin .Methods: A total of 20 male C57 BL/6 mice ( 10.05 -15.00 g ) were randomly divided into control group , OA group, Cur25 group and Cur50 group ( intraperitoneal injected 25 μmol/L or 50 μmol/L of curcumin everyday after modeling ) .After 4 weeks treatment , we observed the morphological changes of the gross specimen by immunohistochemical method , and observed the ultrastructure of cartilage tissue under electron microscope .The expression of MMP-2, MCP-1 and CD47 were detected by western blotting , and L-selectin and AOPP were detected by ELISA and spectrophotometer , respectively. Results: In the cartilage tissue morphology, the chondrocytes of OA group showed obvious change , while Cur25 and Cur50 groups maintained the good cartilage cell membrane intact .Compared with control group , the expressions of MMP-2 , MCP-1 , L-selectin and AOPP in OA group , Cur25 group and Cur 50 group were increased ( all P<0.05 ) , while CD47 levels were decreased ( all P <0.05 ).Compared with OA group, the expressions of MMP-2, MCP-1, L-selectin and AOPP in Cur25 group and Cur50 group were decreased (all P<0.05), while CD47 levels were increased (all P<0.05), and such changes were more significant in Cur50 group (all P<0.05).Conclusion: The MMP-2, MCP-1, CD47, L-selectin and AOPP are closely associated with the pathology course of OA .Curcumin has protection effect on cartilage , which can relieve joint cartilage degeneration , reduce cartilage inflammation and increase the metabolic activity of chondrocytes .
