Isoxanthanol has protective and anti-inflammatory effects on subchondral bone deterioration in experimental osteoarthritic rat model
Abstract
In the present study isoxanthanol was investigated for treatment of monosodium iodoacetate (MIA)-induced osteoarthritis (OA) in vivo. The study demonstrated that isoxanthanol inhibited excessive release of interleukin-6, NO and PGE2 in RAW264.7 cells treated with LPS in dose dependent manner. The effects of isoxanthanol were examined in a rat model of osteoarthritis (OA) and observed to ameliorate inflammatory damage and protect against OA. Moreover, in vivo data also confirmed inhibition of interleukin-6, NO and PGE2 levels in LPS-induced OA-rats. Deterioration of knee subchondral bone in LPS-induced OA-rats was also prevented effectively by isoxanthanol-treatment. Therefore, isoxanthanol prevents subchondral bone deterioration in OA rats via targeting inflammatory processes.
