| Outline of Final Research Achievements |
We performed the study to examine the expression and function of periostin in human OA. The human cartilage samples were obtained from the knees of patients undergoing total knee arthroplasty as OA samples and from the femoral bone head of patients with femoral neck fracture as control samples. The periostin mRNA was significantly higher in OA cartilage than in control cartilage. Immunohistochemical analysis of periostin showed that the main positive signal was localized in chondrocytes and their periphery matrix near the erosive area. The expression of periostin was also detected in the fibrotic cartilage and fibrotic tissue of subchondral bone. In cultured human chondrocytes, periostin induced IL-6, 8, MMP-1, 3, 13, and NOS2 in a dose- and time-dependent manner. Inflammatory signaling by periostin was suppressed by NFκB inactivation in chondrocytes. Periostin was upregulated in OA cartilage, and it may amplify inflammatory events and accelerate OA pathology.
