Abstract Micro RNA s play critical roles in the pathogenesis of osteoarthritis, most common chronic degenerative joint disease. Exosomes derived from miR‐95‐5p‐overexpressing primary chondrocytes ( AC ‐miR‐95‐5p) may be effective treating osteoarthritis. Increased expression HDAC 2/8 occurs tissues and chondrocyte‐secreted exosomes patients with osteoarthritis mediates cartilage‐specific gene chondrocytes. We have been suggested that ‐miR‐95‐5p ‐miR‐95‐5p‐Exos) would enhance chondrogenesis...
Abstract MicroRNAs (miRNAs, miR) play a key role in the pathogenesis of osteoarthritis (OA). Few studies have examined regulatory P21-activated kinases (PAKs), family serine/threonine kinases, OA.

MiR-455-3p knockout mice showed significant knee cartilage. expression increased and PAK2 decreased late stage human adipose-derived stem cell (hADSC) chondrogenesis chondrocytes...
Increasing evidence suggest the biological roles of N6-methyladenosine (m6A) and long noncoding RNAs (lncRNAs) in bone disease, especially osteoarthritis (OA). However, interaction m6A lncRNA is still unclear. Here, we found that a m6A-related LINC00680 upregulated OA tissue IL-1β-induced isolated primary chondrocytes. Functionally, chondrocytes, silencing recovered proliferation repressed extracellular matrix (ECM) degradation. Mechanistically, methyltransferase METTL3 combined tithe site...
Chondrocyte senescence play an essential role in osteoarthritis (OA) progression. Recent studies have shown that snoRNA-derived RNA fragments (sdRNAs) are novel regulators of post-transcriptional gene expression. However, the expression profiles and their regulation chondrocyte OA progression is unknown. Here, we determined sdRNAs profile explored sdRNA-D43 its mechanism. We used qPCR arrays to determine chondrocytes areas undamaged damaged three knee samples. SdRNA-D43 was using...
Long non-coding RNAs (lncRNAs) play pivotal roles in diseases such as osteoarthritis (OA). However, knowledge of the biological lncRNAs is limited OA. We aimed to explore function and molecular mechanism HOTTIP chondrogenesis cartilage degradation. used human mesenchymal stem cell (hMSC) model chondrogenesis, parallel with, tissue biopsies from normal OA detect HOTTIP, CCL3, miR-455-3p expression vitro. Biological interactions between were determined by RNA silencing overexpression evaluated...
The neurogenin (Ngn) transcription factors control early neurogenesis and neurite outgrowth in mammalian cortex. In contrast to their proneural activity, function growth is poorly understood. Drosophila has a single predicted Ngn homolog, Tap, of unknown function. Here we show that Tap not protein but required for proper axonal guidance neurons the mushroom body, neuropile associative learning memory. Genetic expression analyses suggest inhibits excessive by fine regulation levels Wnt...
Abstract The effect of residual varus on survival rate and function in patients with knee osteoarthritis (OA) was considered an important issue for successful primary total arthroplasty (TKA). In this study, we compared the midterm clinical functional outcomes different varus. A retrospective review 175 (219 knees) OA > 3° hip-knee-ankle (HKA) who underwent TKA after exclusions loss to follow-up from 237 (281 knees). mean period 5.2 ( ± 1.1) years. Patients were divided into four groups...
Knee osteoarthritis (KOA) is a highly prevalent disabling joint disease in aged people. Progressive cartilage degradation the hallmark of KOA, but its deeper mechanism remains unclear. Substantial evidence indicates importance synovium for homeostasis. The present study aimed to determine whether regulates metabolism through chondrogenesis-related microRNAs (miRNAs) KOA microenvironment. Clinical sample testing and vitro cell experiments screened out miR-455 miR-210 as effective miRNAs....
Meniscus plays an important role in joint homeostasis. Tear or degeneration of meniscus might facilitate the process knee osteoarthritis (OA). Hence, to investigate transcriptome change during degeneration, we reveal alterations messenger RNA (mRNA), microRNA (miRNA), long noncoding (lncRNA), and circular (circRNA) OA by whole-transcriptome sequence. A total 375 mRNAs, 15 miRNAs, 56 lncRNAs, 90 circRNAs were significantly altered degenerative treated with interleukin-1β (IL-1β). More...
MicroRNAs (miRNAs) play a pivotal role in cartilage development and homeostasis osteoarthritis (OA). While the fundamental roles of miRNAs degeneration have been extensively studied, their effects on chondrogenic differentiation induced by human adipose-derived stem cells (hADSCs) underlying mechanisms remain largely elusive. Here, we investigated hADSC chondrocyte homeostasis. Using microarray analysis, screened expressed differentiated hADSCs identified miR-490-5p as most significantly...

Genetic screens are powerful methods for the discovery of gene-phenotype associations. However, a systems biology approach to genetics must leverage massive amount "omics" data enhance power and speed functional gene in vivo. Thus far, few computational function prediction have been rigorously tested their performance on genome-wide scale In this work, we demonstrate that integrating prioritization with large-scale genetic screening is tool discovery. To discover genes involved neural...
