BACKGROUND
The aim of this study was to evaluate the role of interleukin-17 (IL-17) level in synovia and its relationship with the severity of knee osteoarthritis (OA).
MATERIAL AND METHODS
We enrolled 226 OA patients and 106 controls in this study. The symptomatic/radiation severity of OA was assessed by the Western Ontario McMaster University Osteoarthritis Index (WOMAC) pain score/Kellgren-Lawrence (KL) grading system. Serum IL-17 levels were measured by enzyme-linked immunosorbent assay (ELISA).
RESULTS
Synovia IL-17 levels were significantly higher in OA patients compared with controls (P<0.01), and were negatively correlated with OA severity. IL-17 level gradually decreased among different phases but lacked statistical significance.
CONCLUSIONS
IL-17 might play a crucial role in the pathogenesis of OA and is closely related to pain. Blocking the IL-17 signaling pathway may delay pain related to OA.
背景
本研究旨在评估滑膜中白细胞介素-17（IL-17）水平的作用及其与膝关节骨关节炎（OA）严重程度的关系。
材料与方法
本研究纳入了226例OA患者和106例对照。通过西安大略和麦克马斯特大学骨关节炎指数（WOMAC）疼痛评分/凯尔格伦-劳伦斯（KL）分级系统评估OA的症状/放射学严重程度。采用酶联免疫吸附测定（ELISA）法检测血清IL-17水平。
结果
与对照组相比，OA患者滑膜IL-17水平显著升高（P<0.01），且与OA严重程度呈负相关。IL-17水平在不同阶段逐渐降低，但缺乏统计学意义。
结论
IL-17可能在OA发病机制中起关键作用，且与疼痛密切相关。阻断IL-17信号通路可能延缓与OA相关的疼痛。
