Background: Polydatin (PD), also known as tiger cane glycoside, is a natural compound extracted from the Japanese knotweed plant, which is often referred to as white resveratrol. It exhibits anti-inflammatory, antioxidant, and anti-apoptotic effects in the treatment of various diseases. However, the potential molecular mechanisms of PD in osteoarthritis have not been clearly elucidated.
Methods: Anterior cruciate ligament transection (ACLT) surgery was performed to establish an osteoarthritis animal model. Female mice at the age of 12 weeks were intraperitoneally injected with different concentrations of PD (20 and 40 mg/kg). models were established by isolating mouse articular chondrocytes, which were subsequently treated with lipopolysaccharide or IL-1β for 24 h for subsequent experiments. In addition, different concentrations of PD were administered for 12 h. Morphological changes were observed by toluidine blue staining, joint bone metabolism changes were observed by tartrate-resistant acid phosphatase staining, immunohistochemistry was used to observe the expression levels of inflammatory factors and extracellular matrix. MicroCT analysis was conducted to assess changes in the microstructure of subchondral bone trabeculae, and Western blot was performed to measure the expression of nuclear factor kappa-light-chain-enhancer of activated B cells (NF-κB) signaling pathway and markers of M1 polarization in macrophages.
Results: PD significantly delays the progression of osteoarthritis induced by ACLT, effectively inhibits IL-1β-induced joint inflammation, bone metabolic remodeling and extracellular matrix degradation. In addition, paeoniflorin markedly suppresses the transmission of the NF-κB signaling pathway and reverses M1 polarization in macrophages induced by IL-1β.
Conclusion: Taken together, PD might be a potential therapeutic agent for the prevention and treatment of osteoarthritis.

Osteoarthritis (OA) is a globally prevalent degenerative joint disease. Recent studies highlight the role of ferroptosis in OA progression. Targeting ferroptosis regulation presents a promising therapeutic strategy for OA; however, current research primarily focuses on single targets associated with ferroptosis.

Purpose: The purpose of this retrospective study was to evaluate the efficacy of using a lateral wedge insole (LWI) during the first 3 months after medial meniscus posterior root (MMPR) repair.
Methods: Overall, 179 patients were categorized into LWI use (LWI group, 90 patients) and nonuse (control group, 89 patients) groups. Patients in the LWI group were instructed to wear an LWI from the initiation of load bearing up to 3 months postoperatively.

Femoroacetabular impingement syndrome (FAIS) is a common condition of the hip that can cause significant damage to the joint, leading to degeneration and osteoarthritis. FAIS constitutes an abnormal and dynamic contact between the femoral head-neck junction and the acetabular rim, resulting from altered bone morphology at one or both sites. Repetitive trauma at the site of impingement generates progressive damage to the acetabular labrum, chondrolabral junction, and articular cartilage.

Background: Synovitis is one of the key pathological feature driving osteoarthritis (OA) development. Diverse programmed cell death (PCD) pathways are closely linked to the pathogenesis of OA, but few studies have explored the relationship between PCD-related genes and synovitis.
Methods: The transcriptome expression profiles of OA synovial samples were obtained from the Gene Expression Omnibus (GEO) database.
