ROS/oxidative stress signaling in osteoarthritis.

TL;DR: Targeting the complex oxidative stress signaling pathways would offer a valuable perspective for exploration of potential therapeutic strategies in the treatment of this devastating disease.
Journal ArticleDOI

Call for standardized definitions of osteoarthritis and risk stratification for clinical trials and clinical use.

TL;DR: The goals of this review are to stimulate use of standardized nomenclature for OA that could serve as building blocks for describing OA and defining OA phenotypes to provide unifying disease concepts for a heterogeneous disorder.

Role of Chondrocytes in Cartilage Formation, Progression of Osteoarthritis and Cartilage Regeneration.

TL;DR: The progress in cell based therapies that utilize Mesenchymal Stem Cell (MSC) infusion for cartilage repair may lead to new therapeutics in the long term, however, many questions are unanswered such as the efficacy of MSCs usage in therapy.
Journal ArticleDOI

NF-κB Signaling Pathways in Osteoarthritic Cartilage Destruction.

TL;DR: The roles of NF-κB in OA chondrocytes and related signaling pathways are discussed to better understand pathological cartilage remodeling and provide potential therapeutic targets that can interfere with NF-σB signaling for OA treatment.
Journal ArticleDOI

Oxidative stress and inflammation in osteoarthritis pathogenesis: Role of polyphenols

TL;DR: Plant polyphenols possess potent antioxidant and anti-inflammatory properties and can inhibit ROS production and inflammation in chondrocytes, cartilage explants and in animal models of OA.

The NF-κB Family of Transcription Factors and Its Regulation

TL;DR: The NF-kappaB pathway is a paradigm for understanding general principles of signal transduction and gene regulation as well as other pathway-specific mediators, and the transcription factors are themselves extensively modified.
Journal ArticleDOI

Role of proinflammatory cytokines in the pathophysiology of osteoarthritis

TL;DR: The current knowledge regarding the role of proinflammatory cytokines in the pathophysiology of OA is discussed and the potential of anticytokine therapy in the treatment of this disease is addressed.
Journal ArticleDOI

The role of synovitis in osteoarthritis pathogenesis

TL;DR: Most studies have concluded that the presence of synovitis in OA is associated with more severe pain and joint dysfunction, and may be predictive of faster rates of cartilage loss in certain patient populations.
Journal ArticleDOI

c-Jun N-terminal kinase is required for metalloproteinase expression and joint destruction in inflammatory arthritis

TL;DR: The novel JNK inhibitor SP600125 completely blocked IL-1--induced accumulation of phospho-Jun and induction of c-Jun transcription in synoviocytes and in joint arthritis, indicating that JNK is an important therapeutic target for RA.
