The Regulation of Chondrocyte Function by Proinflammatory Mediators: Prostaglandins and Nitric Oxide

Goldring, Mary B, Berenbaum, Francis·2004·Clinical Orthopaedics & Related Research

Abstract

Within the mature articular cartilage matrix, which has no blood or nerve supply, chondrocytes show little metabolic activity with low turnover of matrix components. Under conditions of stress because of biomechanical factors, however, chondrocytes are capable of producing mediators that are associated with inflammation, including cytokines such as interleukin-1 and tumor necrosis factor-alpha, which in turn stimulate the production of prostaglandins and nitric oxide. Chondrocytes also express receptors for these mediators, which accumulate at high local concentrations and can act in an autocrine-paracrine fashion to feedback-regulate chondrocyte responses. Prostaglandin E2 can exert catabolic or anabolic effects depending on the microenvironment. Nitric oxide can promote cellular injury and increase chondrocyte susceptibility to cytokine-induced apoptosis. Because cross-talk between these mediators produces complex modulation of catabolic and anabolic pathways, further studies in vitro and in vivo are required to elucidate their precise roles in osteoarthritis.

About these checks

Registry, retraction, Cites and statistics results are computed, not judged, with one exception: a printed reference that no index lists is read once by a model before it counts as a citation error. Claims are extracted by a model and kept only when their quote appears verbatim in the text; each cited source is then checked, with a model’s help, for whether it says what the claim relies on. Those verdicts can be wrong — read the claim’s quote and the cited source before relying on one.

Statistics and arithmetic are recomputed, not judged.

Confidence bands are shown only for fields calibrated on our annotated test set. None is calibrated yet, so no band is shown.
