Abstract:
Objective:To investigate the therapeutic efficacy of Jiawei Bushen Zhuangjin Tang(加味补肾壮筋汤,JBZT)against knee osteoarthritis(KOA)in mice,and to explore its underlying molecular mechanisms.Methods:①Animal experiment.Fifty-four 8-week-old male C57BL/6J mice were selected and randomized into a sham-operated group,a model group,a celecoxib group,a low-dose JBZT(L-JBZT)group,a medium-dose JBZT(M-JBZT)group,and a high-dose JBZT(H-JBZT)group,with 9 ones in each group.All mice but the ones in sham-operated group were subjected to medial meniscotibial ligament transection(MMTLT)on the right knee joints to induce KOA,while the ones in sham-operated group were merely incised the medial skin and subcutaneous tissues to expose the knee joint cavity at the corresponding sites and then sutured.One week after successful modeling,the mice in the L-,M-,and H-JBZT groups were intervened by intragastric administration with JBZT solution at crude drug dosages of 4.5,9.0,and 13.5 g/kg/day,respectively; the ones in celecoxib group with celecoxib suspension at a dose of 30 mg/kg/day; and the ones in the sham-operated group with an equal volume of normal saline every day for consecutive 8 weeks.Following the end of intervention,the blood was drawn and the knee cartilage tissues were harvested from the mice in each group for the following analyses:the serum levels of C-X-C motif chemokine ligand 1(CXCL1),interleukin(IL)-6,tumor necrosis factor-α(TNF-α),and IL-1β were measured; the histopathological changes of the knee joint cartilage were examined by observing the prepared knee joint sections under a microscope,and the severity of cartilage degeneration was then assessed using the Osteoarthritis Research Society International(OARSI)histological scoring system; furthermore,the relative protein expression levels of Z-DNA binding protein 1(ZBP1),absent in melanoma 2(AIM2),nucleotide-binding domain leucine-rich repeat and pyrin domain-containing receptor 3(NLRP3),gasdermin D(GSDMD),cleaved cysteine aspartic acid specific protease(c-caspase)-1,c-caspase-3,c-caspase-8,receptor-interacting protein kinase(RIPK)1,and RIPK3,as well as the phosphorylation levels of RIPK1 and RIPK3,in the mice knee joint cartilage tissues were detected.②Cell experiment.The knee articular hyaline cartilage tissues were harvested from the 3-week-old SPF-grade male C57BL/6J mice,and the primary chondrocytes were isolated from the knee articular hyaline cartilage tissues.After cultivation and passaging,the passage 1(P1)chondrocytes were divided into a model group,a JBZT intervention group,a ZBP1-overexpression(OE)group,and a JBZT intervention combined with ZBP1-OE group.The P1 chondrocytes in the model group and JBZT intervention group were transfected with the empty vector pcDNA3.1,while those in the ZBP1-OE group and JBZT intervention combined with ZBP1-OE group with the ZBP1-OE vector pcDNA3.1-ZBP1.Following the transfection and synchronization,the chondrocytes in all groups were stimulated with IL-1β at a final concentration of 10 ng/mL,meanwhile,those in JBZT intervention group and JBZT intervention combined with ZBP1-OE group were treated with JBZT decoction at a final concentration of 0.2 g/mL(crude drug).After further culture for 48 hours,the chondrocyte viability and apoptosis rate,as well as the relative protein expression levels of ZBP1,c-caspase-1,GSDMD,c-caspase-8,and c-caspase-3,were detected in each group.Results:①Findings from animal experiment.Compared with the model group,the L-JBZT group showed no significant diffe-rences in serum CXCL1 or IL-6 levels(P=1.000,P=0.124),whereas the M-JBZT group,H-JBZT group and celecoxib group all exhibited significantly lower serum levels of both CXCL1 and IL-6(CXCL1:P=0.007,P=0.000,P=0.000; IL-6:P=0.002,P=0.000,P=0.000).The serum CXCL1 level was lower in the M- and H-JBZT groups compared to the L-JBZT group(P=0.011,P=0.000),and was lowest in H-JBZT group(P=0.000).However,pairwise comparisons of serum IL-6 level among the L-,M-,and H-JBZT groups revealed no significant differences.The serum CXCL1 and IL-6 levels were lower in celecoxib group compared to L- and M-JBZT groups(CXCL1:P=0.000,P=0.023; IL-6:P=0.000,P=0.000),but showed no significant difference compared to H-JBZT group.Pairwise comparisons of serum TNF-α level among the model group and L-,M-,and H-JBZT groups revealed no significant differences.However,the serum TNF-α level was significantly lower in the celecoxib group compared to the model group and all three JBZT groups(P=0.000,P=0.000,P=0.000,P=0.000).Besides,pairwise comparisons of serum IL-1β level across the five groups(except for the sham-operated group)revealed no statistically significant differences.Histopathologically,in the model group,the knee joint cartilage surfaces were rough and defective,with chondrocytes arranged in a disordered and clustered pattern,the tidemarks indistinct or interrupted,and the cartilage matrix staining diminished; compared with the model group,these pathological alterations were mildly alleviated in the L-JBZT group,further improved in the M-JBZT group,and markedly improved in both the H-JBZT group and the celecoxib group,with comparable improvement degrees observed between the latter two groups.The knee joint OARSI score in the L-JBZT group was not significantly different from that in the model group,while,it was significantly lower in the M-JBZT group,H-JBZT group and celecoxib group compared to the model group or the L-JBZT group(P=0.001,P=0.000,P=0.000;

P=0.000,P=0.000,P=0.000).Compared with the model group,the JBZT intervention group and JBZT intervention combined with ZBP1-OE group also exhibited significantly higher chondrocyte viability and lower apoptosis rate(P=0.006,P=0.000; P=0.000,P=0.000).Compared with the JBZT intervention group,the JBZT intervention combined with ZBP1-OE group exhibited significantly lower chondrocyte viability and higher apoptosis rate(P=0.000; P=0.000).Regarding the PANoptosis-related proteins,the protein expression analysis revealed that,in the JBZT intervention group,the relative protein expression levels of GSDMD,c-caspase-1,c-caspase-3,and c-caspase-8 in chondrocytes were significantly lower than those in the model group(P=0.000,P=0.006,P=0.003,P=0.004),while the relative protein expression levels of ZBP1 showed no significant difference between the two groups.In the ZBP1-OE group,the relative protein expression levels of ZBP1,GSDMD,c-caspase-1,c-caspase-3,and c-caspase-8 in chondrocytes were all higher than those in the model group(P=0.000,P=0.000,P=0.002,P=0.000,P=0.003).In the JBZT intervention combined with ZBP1-OE group,the relative protein expression level of ZBP1 in chondrocytes was higher than that in the model group(P=0.000),however,the relative protein expression levels of GSDMD,c-caspase-1,c-caspase-3,and c-caspase-8 showed no significant difference between the two groups.Furthermore,compared with the ZBP1-OE group,the relative protein expression levels of ZBP1,c-caspase-1,GSDMD,c-caspase-3,and c-caspase-8 in chondrocytes were all lower in the JBZT intervention group(P=0.000,P=0.000,P=0.000,P=0.000,P=0.000),and the relative protein expression levels of c-caspase-1,GSDMD,c-caspase-3,and c-caspase-8 in chondrocytes were also lower in the JBZT intervention combined with ZBP1-OE group(P=0.000,P=0.000,P=0.000,P=0.001),but the relative protein expression level of ZBP1 showed no significant difference between the two groups; whereas,compared with the JBZT intervention group,the JBZT intervention combined with ZBP1-OE group showed higher relative protein expression levels of ZBP1,GSDMD,c-caspase-1,c-caspase-3,and c-caspase-8 in chondrocytes(P=0.000,P=0.002,P=0.041,P=0.047,P=0.022).Conclusion:JBZT can alleviate the inflammatory response in KOA mice,exhibiting a dose-dependent effect on specific pro-inflammatory cytokines.In addition,JBZT can effectively mitigate cartilage degeneration in KOA mice,with medium and high doses demonstrating superior efficacy comparable to celecoxib.It may exert its anti-KOA effects through reducing chondrocyte death via inhibiting PANoptosis-related signaling pathways,and ZBP1 may serve as a pivotal molecular target for its chondroprotective action.
