The role of oxidative stress in aseptic loosening of total hip arthroplasties.

ABSTRACT: This study investigated the hypothesis that wear particle-induced oxidative stress initiates osteolysis after total hip arthroplasty (THA). Patient radiographs were scored for osteolysis and periprosthetic tissues were immunostained and imaged to quantify polyethylene wear, inflammation, and five osteoinflammatory and oxidative stress-responsive factors. These included high mobility group protein-B1 (HMGB1), cyclooxygenase-2 (COX2), inducible nitric oxide synthase (iNOS), 4-hydroxynonenal (4-HNE), and nitrotyrosine (NT). The results show wear debris correlated with inflammation, 4-HNE, NT and HMGB1, whereas inflammation only correlated with NT and HMGB1. Similar to wear debris and inflammation, osteolysis correlated with HMGB1. Additionally, osteolysis correlated with COX2 and 4-HNE, but not iNOS or NT. Understanding the involvement of oxidative stress in wear-induced osteolysis will help identify diagnostic biomarkers and therapeutic targets to prevent osteolysis after THA.

Project description:BackgroundAseptic loosening (AL) of hip prosthesis presents inflammation and pain as sign and symptom similarly to arthritis pathologies. Still, the immune and innervation profiles in hip AL remain unclear and their interplay is poorly explored. Herein, local tissue inflammatory response, sensory and sympathetic innervation as well as associated local mediators were assessed in hip joint microenvironment underlying AL and compared to osteoarthritis (OA).MethodsHistopathological analysis, immune cells (macrophages, T, B cells and PMNs) as well as sensory and sympathetic nerve fibers (SP(+), CGRP(+), TH(+)) distribution and profiles were analyzed on tissues retrieved from patients with failed hip prostheses due to AL (n = 20) and hip OA (n = 15) by immunohistochemistry. Additionally, transcriptional levels of pro-inflammatory cytokines (TNF-α, IL-1β, IL-6, IL-12a, iNOS), anti-inflammatory cytokine (IL-10), osteoclastic factor (RANKL) and bone remodeling factor (TGF-β1) were locally evaluated by qRT-PCR. Serum TGF-β1 levels were assessed preoperatively by ELISA.ResultsHistopathological analysis revealed that tissues, aseptic interface membranes of AL patients had distinct tissue architecture and immune cells profile when compared to OA synovial tissues. Macrophages, T cells and B cells showed significant differences in tissue distribution. In OA, inflammation is mostly confined to the vicinity of synovial membrane while in AL macrophages infiltrated throughout the tissue. This differential immune profile is also accompanied with a distinct pattern of sensory and sympathetic innervation. Importantly, in AL patients, a lack of sympathetic innervation aseptic interface membranes without compensation mechanisms at cellular levels was observed with simultaneous reorganization of sensorial innervation. Despite the different histopathological portrait, AL and OA patients exhibited similar transcriptional levels of genes encoding key proteins in local immune response. Nevertheless, in both pathologies, TGF-β1 expression was prominent in sites where the inflammation is occurring. However, at systemic level no differences were found.ConclusionThese findings indicate that AL patients exhibit different local inflammatory response and innervation signatures from OA patients in hip joint. These insights shed the light on neuro-immune interplay in AL and highlight the need to better understand this crosstalk to unravel potential mechanisms for targeted-therapies to improve hip joint lifetime and treatment.

Project description:BackgroundPatients with surgically treated osteoarthritis of the hip have an increased risk of cardiovascular morbidity and mortality many years after the operation compared with controls. Our hypothesis is that this increased risk after total hip arthroplasty (THA) is mediated by development of periprosthetic osteolysis leading to aseptic loosening of the implant.MethodsWe conducted a nation-wide, nested, case-control study consisting of patients receiving a cemented THA due to osteoarthritis between the years 1992 and 2005. Our study population included a total of 14,430 subjects identified in the Swedish hip arthroplasty register and linked to the Swedish National Patient Register. The case group consisted of patients (n = 2,886) who underwent reoperation of the treated hip due to osteolysis or aseptic loosening at any time within five years after the index surgery. Each case was matched with four controls (n = 11,544) who had not undergone reoperation. The main outcomes were cardiovascular events i.e. myocardial infarction, heart failure and cerebral infarction according to ICD-codes and time to the first cardiovascular event during the exposure period. Outcomes were subgrouped into cardiac and cerebral events. We used regression models to calculate the incidence rates and adjusted our results for confounders.FindingsOverall, 5.1% of patients had cardiac events, with slightly more overall cardiovascular events occurring in the control group (8.1% vs. 6.7%, odds ratio 0.8, 95% confidence interval (CI) 0.7 to 1.0). After adjusting for confounders, the case group had an increased relative risk of 1.3 (95% confidence interval (CI) 1.1 to 1.3) for total number of cardiovascular events. Similar effect sizes were observed for time to first event.InterpretationPatients with osteoarthritis who received THA and subsequently underwent a revision operation due to loosening had a higher relative risk of developing cardiovascular events than controls. Thus there is an association which could be explained by a common inflammatory disease pathway that requires further experimental research.
