Potential predictive and therapeutic applications of small extracellular vesicles-derived circPARD3B in osteoarthritis.

ABSTRACT: Background: Heterogeneous phenotypes that display distinct common characteristics of osteoarthritis (OA) are not well defined and will be helpful in identifying more customized therapeutic options for OA. Circular RNAs (circRNAs) have attracted more and more attention due to their role in the progression of OA. Investigating the role of circRNAs in the pathogenesis of OA will contribute to the phenotyping of OA and to individualized treatment. Methods: Small extracellular vesicles (sEV) were isolated from serum samples from patients with OA of different stages and sEV-derived circPARD3B was determined using RT-qPCR analysis. CircPARD3B expression in a stimulated coculture that included OA fibroblast-like synoviocytes (OA-FLS) as well as human dermal microvascular endothelial
