BACKGROUND:Various proteins,signaling pathways,and inflammatory mediators are involved in the pathophysiological process of osteoarthritis.The development of small molecule drugs targeting these proteins,signaling pathways,and inflammatory mediators can effectively delay the progression of osteoarthritis and ameliorate its clinical manifestations. OBJECTIVE:To review the research progress of small molecule drugs in the treatment of osteoarthritis based on the pathogenesis of osteoarthritis. METHODS:PubMed,CNKI,and WanFang databases were searched with English search terms"osteoarthritis,arthritis,osteoarthrosis,degenerative,arthritides,deformans,small molecule drugs,small molecule inhibitors,small molecule agents"and Chinese search terms"osteoarthritis,small molecule drugs,small molecule inhibitors."A total of 68 articles were included for review according to the inclusion and exclusion criteria. RESULTS AND CONCLUSION:(1)Currently,studies concerning the pathogenesis of osteoarthritis remain unclear.The occurrence and development of osteoarthritis are strongly associated with proteins,cytokines,and signal transduction pathways,so its therapeutic mechanism is relatively complex.Currently,targeting proteins,cytokines,and signal transduction pathways related to osteoarthritis with small molecule drugs has become a major research focus.(2)Small molecule drugs frequently possess visible intracellular or extracellular targets and efficacy,containing enhancing cartilage repair,resisting joint degradation,attenuating inflammation,and relieving pain.Other anti-osteoarthritis small molecule drugs have shown promise in promoting stem cell chondrogenic differentiation and cartilage matrix reconstruction.(3)At present,small molecule drugs targeting the pathophysiological process of osteoarthritis to delay the progression of osteoarthritis are still in the experimental stage,but most of these small molecule drugs have shown the expected results in the experimental process,and there are no relevant studies to illustrate the efficacy of small molecule drugs in the treatment of osteoarthritis.(4)Small molecule drugs for the treatment of osteoarthritis have reached the expected experimental results in the basic experimental stage.Numerous studies have exhibited that small molecule drugs can target the suppression of specific proteins,cytokines,and signal transduction pathways that cause osteoarthritis,so as to treat osteoarthritis.Nevertheless,its safety and effectiveness still need to be identified by further basic and clinical studies.This process needs to be investigated and studied by more scholars.(5)At present,many scholars in and outside China have made contributions to the treatment of osteoarthritis.Compared with traditional treatment methods,small molecule drugs reveal better efficacy and safety in the basic experimental stage,and it is expected to become an emerging method for the treatment of osteoarthritis in the future to rid patients of pain.

Objective:To investigate the effect of early high-sucrose diet (eHSD) on cognitive function and its regulatory mechanism in 3×Tg-AD mice.Methods:(1) Eighteen specific-pathogen-free (SPF)-grade 2-month-old wide-type (WT) mice were randomly divided into a WT+normal chow diet (NCD) group and a WT+eHSD group, with 9 mice in each group; and 18 SPF-grade 2-month-old 3×Tg-AD mice were randomly divided into a 3×Tg-AD+NCD group and a 3×Tg-AD+eHSD group, with 9 mice in each group. At 2-5 months old, mice in the 4 groups received standard laboratory food+purified water or 30% sucrose water, followed by standard feed for all groups. At 8 months old, cognitive function was assessed by Morris water maze test; fluorescent intensity of AT8 (phosphorylated [p]-tau) and T22 (tau oligomers) in the hippocampal tissues was detected by immunofluorescent staining; concentrations of β-amyloid protein (Aβ) 42 and Aβ 40 were detected by enzyme-linked immunosorbent assay (ELISA); protein expressions of stimulator of interferon genes (STING), TANK-binding kinase 1 (TBK1), p-TBK1, and CCAAT/enhancer-binding protein β (C/EBPβ) were detected by Western blotting; activity of C/EBPβ transcription factor was detected by activity assay; mitochondrial DNA (mtDNA) content in the cytoplasm of cell was detected by real-time quantitative PCR (qPCR). (2) Eighteen SPF-grade 2-month-old 3×Tg-AD mice were randomized into a 3×Tg-AD+eHSD+H-151 group and a 3×Tg-AD+eHSD+dimethyl sulfoxide (DMSO) group, with 9 mice in each group. Mice at 2-5 months old were given standard laboratory food+30% sucrose water; they were, respectively, injected intraperitoneally with STING pathway inhibitor H-151 or DMSO at 5 months old, and continually injected until 8 months old; and then, the behavioral testing, immunofluorescent staining, ELISA, Western blotting and C/EBPβ transcription factor activity experiments were repeated as before. (3) After crossing C/EBPβ heterozygous knockout (C/EBPβ +/-) mice with 3×Tg-AD mice, 3×Tg-AD/C/EBPβ +/- mice were obtained, and 3×Tg-AD mice were used as controls; they were named 3×Tg-AD/C/EBPβ +/-+eHSD group and 3×Tg-AD+eHSD group, with 9 mice in each group. Both groups of mice were given standard laboratory food+30% sucrose water at 2-5 months old, followed by standard feed until 8 months old; and then, the behavioral testing, immunofluorescent staining, ELISA, and Western blotting experiments were repeated as before.

Gene therapy, harnessing the power of CRISPR-Cas9 and/or DNAzyme systems, stands as a pivotal approach in cancer therapy, enabling the meticulous manipulation of genes pivotal to tumorigenesis and immunity. However, the pursuit of precise gene therapy encounters formidable hurdles. Herein, a near-infrared upconversion theranostic nanomachine is devised and tailors for CRISPR-Cas9/DNAzyme systems mediate precise gene therapy. An ingenious logic DNAzyme system consists of Chain 1 (C1)/Chain 2 (C2) and endogenous lncRNA is designed. We employ manganese modified upconversion nanoparticles for carrying ultraviolet-responsive C1-PC linker-C2 (C₂P) chain and Cas9 ribonucleoprotein (RNP), with outermost coats with hyaluronic acid. Upon reaching tumor microenvironment (TME), the released Mn²⁺ ions orchestrate a trifecta: facilitating endosomal escape, activating cGAS-STING signaling, and enabling T1-magnetic resonance imaging. Under near-infrared irradiation, Cas9 RNP/C₂P complex dissociates, releasing Cas9 RNP into the nucleus to perform gene editing of Ptpn2, while C1/C2 chains self-assemble with endogenous lncRNA to form a functional DNAzyme system, targeting PD-L1 mRNA for gene silencing. This strategy remodels the TME by activating cGAS-STING signaling and dual immune checkpoints blockade, thus realizing tumor elimination. Our theranostic nanomachine armed with the CRISPR-Cas9/DNAzyme logic systems, represents a resourceful and promising strategy for advancing cancer systemic immunotherapy and precise gene therapy.
