Abstract:
Objective To detect the expression levels of urokinase-type plasminogen activator (uPA), matrix metalloproteinase-3 (MMP-3),MMP-9,MMP-13 and MMP-14 in the patients with osteoarthritis(OA)before and after arthroscopic debridement,and to explore the influence of arthroscopic debridement in the expressions of uPA, MMP-3,MMP-9,MMP-13, and MMP-14.Methods 420 cases of synovial fluid from knee OA patients undergoing arthroscopic debridement were obtained before operation. After six months follow-up, 350 cases of synovial fluid samples were obtained and according to inclusion and exclusion criteria, 228 synovial fluid were selected to analyze.The expression levels of uPA,MMP-3,MMP-9,MMP-13,and MMP-14 were measured by ELISA assay.Pain intensity of these patients before operation and six months after operation were recorded using the Visual Analogue Scale/Score(VAS).The differences of the expression levels of uPA,MMP-3,MMP-9, MMP-13,and MMP-14 between before operation and after operation were compared.The relationship between the expression levels of uPA, and MMP-3, MMP-9, MMP-13, MMP-14 and VAS was analyzed with Spearman analysis.Results All the patients were followed up for 36.5 months. Compared with before operation, the expression levels of uPA and MMP-3 in the synovial fluid of the patients after arthroscopic debridement were significantly decreased(P<0.01),the expression levels of MMP-9 and MMP-13 were also decreased (P<0.05), but the MMP-14 expression level showed no significant change.The expression levels of uPA,MMP-3,MMP-9, MMP-13,MMP-14 were positively associated with VAS before arthroscopic debridement (r=0.361,r=0.417, r=0.136,r=0.514,r=0.156,P<0.05 );uPA and MMP-3 were positively correlated with VAS after arthroscopic debridement(r=0.981,r=0.831,P<0.01),as well as the expression level of MMP-13 and VAS, but there were no significant differences between the expression levels of MMP-9, MMP-14 and VAS. Conclusion The decreased levels of uPA,MMP-3 and MMP-13 in synovial fluid may contribute to the pain-relief effects of arthroscopic debridement.
