Abstract: | Rapidly destructive coxopathy (RDC), a rare disease of unknown etiology, is characterized by the rapid destruction of the hip joint. In the current study, the potential involvement of inflammasome signaling in the progression of RDC was investigated. Histopathologic changes and the gene expression of inflam-masome activation markers in hip synovial tissues collected from patients with RDC were evaluated and compared with those of osteoarthritis and osteonecrosis of the femoral head patients. The synovial tissues of patients with RDC exhibited remarkable increases in the number of infiltrated macrophages and osteoclasts, and the expression of inflammasome activation markers was also increased compared with those of osteoarthritis and osteonecrosis of the femoral head patients. To further understand the histopathologic changes in the joint, a co-culture model of macrophages and synoviocytes that mimicked the joint environment was developed. Remarkably, the gene expression levels of NLRP3, GSDMD, IL1B, TNFA, ADMTS4, ADMTS5, MMP3, MMP9, and RANKL were significantly elevated in the synoviocytes that were co-cultured with activated THP-1 macrophages, suggesting the association between synovitis and inflam-masome activation. Consistent with these findings, osteoclast precursor cells that were co-cultured with stimulated synoviocytes exhibited an increased number of tartrate-resistant acid phosphatase-positive cells, compared with cells that were co-cultured with non-stimulated synoviocytes. These findings suggest that the activation of inflammasome signaling in the synovium results in an increase in local inflammation and osteoclastogenesis, thus leading to the rapid bone destruction in RDC.& nbsp; |
