Exosomes from osteoarthritic fibroblast-like synoviocytes promote cartilage ferroptosis and damage via delivering microRNA-19b-3p to target SLC7A11 in osteoarthritis.

ABSTRACT:

Objective

Our previous studies revealed that normal synovial exosomes promoted chondrogenesis, and microRNA (miR)-19b-3p independently related to osteoarthritis (OA) risk. Subsequently, this study intended to further explore the effect of OA fibroblast-like synoviocyte (OA-FLS) exosomal miR-19b-3p on OA ferroptosis and its potential mechanisms.

Methods

Interleukin (IL)-1β-stimulated chondrocytes and medial meniscus surgery were used to construct the OA cellular model and the OA rat model, respectively. OA-FLS exosomes with/without miR-19b-3p modification were added to the IL-1β-stimulated chondrocytes and OA rat models, followed by direct miR-19b-3p mimic/inhibitor transfection with/without SLC7A11 overexpression plasmids. miR-19b-3p, ferroptosis-related markers (malondialde
