Depletion of aquaporin 1 decreased ADAMTS-4 expression in human chondrocytes
Inflammation serves an important role in the progression of osteoarthritis (OA), and IL‑1β may act as a catabolic factor on cartilage, reducing the synthesis of primary cartilage components type II collagen and aggrecan. Aquaporin 1 (AQP1) is a 28‑kDa water channel formed of six transmembrane domains on the cell membrane. AQP1 is highly expressed in the anus, gallbladder and liver, and is moder...
متن کاملHyaluronan inhibits expression of ADAMTS4 (aggrecanase-1) in human osteoarthritic chondrocytes
BACKGROUND Intra-articular injection of hyaluronan (HA) has been suggested to have a disease-modifying effect in osteoarthritis, but little is known about the possible mechanisms. OBJECTIVE To investigate the effects of HA species of different molecular mass, including 800 kDa (HA800) and 2700 kDa (HA2700), on the expression of aggrecanases (ie, ADAMTS species), which play a key role in aggre...
متن کاملAquaporin-1 expression is decreased in human and mouse corneal endothelial dysfunction.
PURPOSE To determine if aquaporin-1 expression is decreased in human and mouse corneal endothelial dysfunction. METHODS Immunohistochemistry with anti-aquaporin 1 antibody and confocal microscopy were used to study a case series of human corneal specimens, and a mouse model of corneal endothelial injury was created with injection of sterile hot water into the anterior chamber with a 33 gauge ...
متن کاملExpression of Angiotensin II Receptor-1 in Human Articular Chondrocytes
Background. Besides its involvement in the cardiovascular system, the renin-angiotensin-aldosterone (RAS) system has also been suggested to play an important role in inflammation. To explore the role of this system in cartilage damage in arthritis, we investigated the expression of angiotensin II receptors in chondrocytes. Methods. Articular cartilage was obtained from patients with osteoarthri...
متن کاملEvaluation of CD98 Expression in Normal and Osteoarthritic Human Articular Chondrocytes
Background: Recent studies have provided evidence that integrins play roles in recognition of mechanical stimuli and its translation into a cellular response. Integrin signaling may be regulated by a number of mechanisms including accessory proteins such as CD98 (4F2 antigen). Objectives: To determine CD98 expression by human articular chondrocytes and its involvement in human articular mechano...
