Hyaluronic acid/diminazene aceturate combination ameliorates osteoarthritic anomalies in a rodent model: a role of the ACE2/Ang1-7/MasR axis
2023
Overview
The implication of the tissue-localized renin-angiotensin system (RAS) in the pathogenesis of osteoarthritis (OA) has been documented in the last decades. A combination of intraarticular (IA) corticosteroid and hyaluronic acid (HYAL) is approved for pain relief in patients with mild to moderate OA. Combining HYAL with an activator of angiotensin-converting enzyme 2, diminazen aceturate (DIZE), was evaluated in this study for its therapeutic potential. Monosodium iodoacetate was used to induce OA. The effects of daily administration of DIZE versus once-per-week IA injection of HYAL and a combination of both drugs for 21 days on OA deformities in rats’ knees were observed. Evaluation of motor activities, pain, and inflammatory response was done using rotarod, knee bend, and knee swelling tests. RAS components, inflammatory biomarkers, and oxidative stress mediators were measured in the knee joint. X-ray radiological examination and histopathological investigations were used to assess joint degeneration and regeneration. Levels of both inflammatory and oxidative markers in knee joint homogenate of OA rats rose, and these increments were mostly improved by the three therapies with a more prominent effect of the drug combination, an effect that was also reflected in the behavioral tests. RAS markers have shown better responsiveness to the combination therapy over both drugs individually, showing a pronounced increase in the angiotensin 1–7 amount. Both radiological and histopathology investigations came to confirm the biochemical results, nominating a combination of HYAL and DIZE as a possible therapeutic option for OA.
