Rheumatoid synovial fibroblasts (RSF) are activated by toll-like receptor (TLR) signaling pathways during the pathogenesis of rheumatoid arthritis (RA). Cathepsin K is highly expressed by RSF, and is known to play a key role in the degradation of type I and type II collagen. Cathepsin K is considered to be implicated in the degradation of bone and cartilage in RA. Recent observations have shown that hyaluronan (HA) is an important inhibitor of inflammation. In the present study, we show that lipopolysaccharide (LPS) stimulation significantly increases cathepsin K expression by real-time PCR and western blotting analysis via a TLR-4 signaling pathway. Furthermore, we demonstrate that HA suppresses LPS-induced cathepsin K expression, which is dependent on CD44 but not intercellular adhesion molecule-1 (ICAM-1) interaction. We also show that HA suppresses LPS-induced matrix metalloproteinase-1 (MMP-1) expression, which is dependent on both CD44 and ICAM-1 interaction. We conclude that the anti-inflammatory effect of HA occurs through crosstalk between more than one HA receptor. Our study provides evidence for HA mediated suppression of LPS-induced cathepsin K and MMP-1 expression, supporting a protective effect of HA in RA.

UI MeSH Term Description Entries
D008070 Lipopolysaccharides Lipid-containing polysaccharides which are endotoxins and important group-specific antigens. They are often derived from the cell wall of gram-negative bacteria and induce immunoglobulin secretion. The lipopolysaccharide molecule consists of three parts: LIPID A, core polysaccharide, and O-specific chains (O ANTIGENS). When derived from Escherichia coli, lipopolysaccharides serve as polyclonal B-cell mitogens commonly used in laboratory immunology. (From Dorland, 28th ed) Lipopolysaccharide,Lipoglycans

D000894 Anti-Inflammatory Agents, Non-Steroidal Anti-inflammatory agents that are non-steroidal in nature. In addition to anti-inflammatory actions, they have analgesic, antipyretic, and platelet-inhibitory actions. They act by blocking the synthesis of prostaglandins by inhibiting cyclooxygenase, which converts arachidonic acid to cyclic endoperoxides, precursors of prostaglandins. Inhibition of prostaglandin synthesis accounts for their analgesic, antipyretic, and platelet-inhibitory actions; other mechanisms may contribute to their anti-inflammatory effects.
