Effect of glucosamine and chondroitin sulfate on regulation of gene expression of proteolytic enzymes and their inhibitors in interleukin-1–challenged bovine articular cartilage explants

Abstract: GLN and CS, at concentrations that are within the range measured in synovial fluid and blood after oral administration, may regulate expression of matrix degrading enzymes and their inhibitors at the transcriptional level, providing a plausible mechanism for their purported chondroprotective properties.

“…MMPs, aggrecanases, and their post-translational activation mechanisms are obvious targets for clinical intervention in arthritis, and many natural and synthetic inhibitors have been investigated for potential therapeutic use (Chan, et al, 2005;Close, 2001). Indeed, a broad spectrum metalloproteinase inhibitor was found to reduce aggrecan depletion and loss of material properties in IL-1-stimulated cartilage explants .…”

“…More interestingly, there are also very few studies that describe the efficacy of a drug combination (i.e., GS-CS) in improving cartilage repair processes (Chan et al, 2005). The findings of our study appear to complement previous clinical studies in animals and in vitro conditions, demonstrating that: (1) combined therapy has been shown to have protective and beneficial effects in vitro by acting synergistically in stimulating the production of PGs in articular cartilage, while inhibiting the activity of the degradative enzymes (Dechant et al, 2005), and (2) in studies involving animal models, this combination is shown to exert a protective effect on cartilage degradation (Bassleer et al, 1998;Chan et al, 2005). However, these findings are not consistently supported by others, with many reports showing mixed results (Lipeela et al, 2000;Orth et al, 2002;Dodge and Jimenez, 2003;Ilic et al, 2003;Lippiello, 2003;Persiani et al, 2004).…”

“…In joint tissues affected by OA, CS has been shown to modify the chondrocyte death process 17,18) and promote subchondral bone homeostasis, 19) partly by reducing some proinflammatory and catabolic factors, such as nuclear-factor κB, and increasing anabolic factors. [20][21][22] The study by Morreale et al shows that oral CS needs to be administered for longer than diclofenac to produce a substantial reduction in the pain of knee OA, but that the effects of CS persist beyond treatment. 23) Given that repeated treatment is needed for benefits to appear with oral CS therapy in OA, it is considered a slow-acting drug.…”
