Summary: | Osteoarthritis (OA), a degenerative disease, has attracted extensive attention all over the world. In this study, a rat model involving medial meniscus resection (MMx) and anterior to medial collateral ligament (ACL) operation was successfully established to study the effects of bovine cartilage hydrolysates rich in type II collagen peptides (BIIP) on cartilage protection. The results of histological analysis indicated that oral administration of BIIP at doses of 200 and 500 mg kg

ameliorated cartilage degeneration. Moreover, the potential targets of BIIP affecting OA

were studied by proteomics, and the effects of BIIP on OA through signaling pathways, such as NF-κB, Wnt/β-catenin and MAPK, were further explored at mRNA and protein levels. BIIP downregulated the expression of IL-6, RUNX2, NF-κB p65, HIF-2α, β-catenin and p-JNK, which may be the main factor leading to the prevention of OA. These results suggest that BIIP can be used as a novel potential substance of functional foods to exert chondroprotective action.
Type II collagen peptides could significantly influence OA. |
