Background: Steroid-induced osteonecrosis of the femoral head (ONFH) is aseptic necrosis of the femoral head caused by glucocorticoid use. Once necrotic femoral head necrosis occurs, it irreversibly affects the quality of life seriously. Studies have shown that the susceptibility to steroid-induced ONFH is likely to be related to the variation of miRNA-coding genes. Therefore, this study aimed was to investigate the effect of MIR3142HG on steroid-induced ONFH.
Methods: Agena MassARRAY was used to genotype MIR3142HG gene rs1582417, rs2431689, rs7727155, and rs17057846 in 199 patients and 725 healthy people. A genetic model and haplotype analysis were used to evaluate the relationship between the MIR3142HG polymorphism and the risk of steroid-induced ONFH. The odds ratio and 95% confidence intervals were obtained through logistic regression to assess the influence of gene polymorphisms on the occurrence of steroid-induced ONFH.
Results: The consequences show that rs7727115 is a protective factor, it could reduce the risk of steroid-induced ONFH, and rs1582417 could increase the risk of steroid-induced ONFH. In the genetic model, rs1582417 was associated with increased risk of alcohol-induced ONFH in dominant model and log-additive model. rs7727115 showed a decreased risk in codominant model, dominant model, and log-additive model. In addition, rs2431689 is related to HDL-C (p = 0.012) and ApoA1 (p = 0.010) levels, and rs17057846 (p = 0.024) is related to ApoB levels. Thelinkage analysis indicated 3 single-nucleotide polymorphisms (rs2431689, rs7727115, and rs17057846) in MIR3142HG with significant chain imbalance. In addition, haplotype "GGG" of MIR3142HG was found out and is harmful for steroid-induced ONFH.
Conclusion: Our results first confirm that the genetic polymorphism of MIR3142HG is associated with steroid-induced ONFH susceptibility in Chinese Han population.

Background: Glucocorticoids (GCs) are critical regulatory molecules in the body, commonly utilized in clinical practice for their potent anti-inflammatory and immunosuppressive properties. However, prolonged, high-dose GC therapy is frequently associated with femoral head necrosis, a condition known as glucocorticoid-induced osteonecrosis of the femoral head (GC-ONFH). Emerging evidence suggests that enhanced autophagy may mitigate apoptosis, thereby protecting osteoblasts from GC-induced damage and delaying the progression of ONFH.

Background: Osteonecrosis of the femoral head (ONFH) is a refractory orthopedic disease with a high disability rate. Long-term administration of steroids is the most common pathogenic factor for non-traumatic ONFH. Early diagnosis of steroid-induced osteonecrosis of the femoral head (SONFH) is difficult and mainly depends on imaging.

Methylprednisolone (MPS) use is linked to increased cases of osteonecrosis of the femoral head (ONFH). Bone marrow mesenchymal stem cells (BMSCs) have shown potential for treating MPS-induced ONFH, but their effectiveness is limited by high apoptosis rates post-transplantation. We developed a pre-treatment strategy for BMSCs to improve their viability.
