Abstract |
Osteoarthritis (OA) is a degenerative joint disease that is commonly accompanied by inflammation. Scoparone is a biologically active constituent isolated from Artemisia capillaris and possesses anti-inflammatory activity. However, the effect of scoparone on inflammatory response in OA has not been authenticated. The aim of this study was to evaluate the role of scoparone in OA in vitro. Our results showed that IL-1β treatment significantly inhibited the cell viability of chondrocytes, whereas the inhibition effect was attenuated by scoparone in a dose-dependent manner. IL-1β also efficiently induced the production of nitric oxide (NO), prostaglandin E2 (PGE2), MMP-3, MMP-13, ADAMTS-4 and ADAMTS-5 in chondrocytes. However, scoparone dose-dependently suppressed the induction. In addition, scoparone repressed IL-1β-induced the expression of iNOS and COX-2 in chondrocytes. Furthermore, the activation of the PI3K/Akt/NF-κB pathway induced by IL-1β was diminished by scoparone treatment. Taken together, these findings indicated that scoparone inhibited the expression of inflammatory mediators in IL-1β-induced chondrocytes via regulating the PI3K/Akt/NF-κB pathway. Thus, scoparone may be used as a new therapeutic agent for the treatment of OA.
