As the research of traditional Chinese medicine (TCM) on knee osteoarthritis (KOA) is progressing, researchers have discovered that a variety of Chinese medicines can delay the progress of KOA by regulating signaling pathways at the molecular level. The Chinese medicines and their active ingredients mentioned in this article are associated with the signaling pathways in KOA. They can regulate the levels of targeted molecules via different signaling pathways to inhibit cartilage inflammatory cytokine, apoptosis, and cartilage matrix degradation and promote chondrocyte autophagy, so as to reduce the synovial inflammatory edema and delay cartilage degeneration. This paper systematically reviews the studies about the TCM intervention of KOA. Baicalein can reduce the inflammatory cytokines and apoptosis and promote the autophagy of chondrocytes by blocking the phosphatidylinositol-3 kinase/protein kinase (PI3K/Akt) signaling pathway. Cornuside I can decrease the phosphorylation activity of Janus kinase 2/signal transducer and activator of transcription 3 (JAK2/STAT3) pathway to reduce synovial inflammation and delay cartilage matrix degeneration. Salvianolic acid A can reduce inflammation and cartilage matrix degradation by inhibiting the phosphorylation of the nuclear factor-κB (NF-κB) pathway. Emodin can reduce the activity of Wnt/β-catenin pathway to inhibit the decomposition of collagen and proteoglycan. Myristicoside can inhibit apoptosis by blocking the p38 mitogen-activated protein kinase (p38 MAPK) signaling pathway. Akebia saponin D can enhance the activity of nuclear factor E2-related factor 2/heme oxygenase 1(Nrf2/HO-1) pathway to inhibit oxidative stress in chondrocytes. The saponins in Achyranthis Bidentatae Radix reduce cartilage matrix degradation by enhancing the transforming growth factor-β (TGF-β)/Smad signaling pathway. Crocin inhibits the cartilage inflammation and apoptosis factor increase by stimulating the activity of hippo-Yes-associated protein (Hippo-YAP). Ligustrazine blocks the Notch pathway to improve the morphology and abnormality of chondrocytes. Oleanolic acid reduces the destruction and degeneration of cartilage matrix via the estrogen signaling pathway. The above summary aims to provide references for future clinical and experimental research on KOA.

Objective To compare the effects of short- term high- intensity interval training (HIT) and moderate continuous training (MCT) on inflammatory mediators for healthy young males. Methods 19 healthy young male volunteers were randomized into HIT group (n=6), MCT group (n=7) and no training control (CON, n=6) group. The groups of HIT and MCT accepted treadmill exercise once per 2 days to 6 times (2 weeks), and the CON group did not accepted treadmill exercise. The levels of high-sensitive C-reactive protein (hs-CRP), interleukin (IL) -1α, IL-6 and tumor necrosis factor α (TNF-α) were detected 3 days before exercise, immediately after the first exercise, 3 days after the course. Results There was no difference among groups in the level of hs-CRP, IL-1α, IL-6 and TNF-α in all the time (P>0.05). The concentration of IL-1α increased in the MCT group after the first exercise (P<0.01), and also the concentration of IL-6 in the CON group after the course (P<0.05). Conclusion It needs further srudy for the significance of HIT and MCT in the levels of inflammatory media.
