Abstract:
Objective To explore the treatment effects and mechanism of Fangji Huangqi Xiaozhong Prescription in metabolic syndrome phenotype osteoarthritis(MS-OA)based on PPARγ/NF-κB signaling pathway.Methods SD rats were randomly divided into sham-operation group,OA group,MS-OA group,Western medicine group,and TCM high-and low-dasage groups.The modified Hulth method was used to make the OA model,and OA model was added with high-carbohydrate high-fat diet to make the MS-OA model.TCM high-and low-dosage groups were given 15.12,7.56 g/kg Fangji Huangqi Xiaozhong Prescription for gavage.The Western medicine group was given 16.2 mg/kg of losoprofen sodium by gavage,while the other groups were given physiological saline by gavage once a day for 6 consecutive weeks.Rat body mass was measured,biochemical detection of blood lipids and blood glucose was conducted,ELISA was used to detect the contents of serum TNF-α,IL-1β,IL-10 and leptin,morphological changes in cartilage tissue were observed using safranin O-fixed green and HE staining,immunohistochemical staining was used to detect expressions of Acan,ColⅩ,MMP13,TNF-α,IL-1β and PPARγ in cartilage tissue,Western blot was used to detected the expression of PPARγ,NF-κBp65 and p-NF-κBp65 protein in cartilage tissue.Results Compared with the sham-operation group,body mass and serum TC,TG,LDL-C,TNF-α,IL-1β and leptin of MS-OA group increased significantly(P<0.01),the contents of HDL-C and IL-10 decreased(P<0.01),cartilage tissue degeneration was significant,and the Mankin score increased(P<0.01),the expression of ColⅩ,MMP13,TNF-α,IL-1β,p-NF-κBp65 protein increased(P<0.05,P<0.01),and the expression of Acan and PPARγ protein decreased(P<0.01).Compared with the MS-OA group,the contents of serum TC,TG,LDL-C,TNF-α and leptin decreased in TCM high-dosage group(P<0.05,P<0.01),the content of IL-10 increased(P<0.05),the pathological damage of cartilage tissue improved,the Mankin score decreased(P<0.01),the expressions of ColⅩ,MMP13,TNF-α,IL-1β and p-NF-κBp65 protein in cartilage tissue decreased(P<0.05,P<0.01),and the protein expressions of Acan and PPARγ protein increased(P<0.01,P<0.05).Conclusion Fangji Huangqi Xiaozhong Prescription can improve lipid metabolism disorder,improve intra-articular inflammatory environment,balance cartilage metabolism,and delay cartilage degeneration in MS-OA rats.Its mechanism may be related to the regulation of PPARγ/NF-κB signaling pathway.
