Immune Mediators in Osteoarthritis: Infrapatellar Fat Pad-Infiltrating CD8+ T Cells Are Increased in Osteoarthritic Patients with Higher Clinical Radiographic Grading.

ABSTRACT: Osteoarthritis is a condition of joint failure characterized by many pathologic changes of joint-surrounding tissues. Many evidences suggest the role of both innate and adaptive immunity that interplay, resulting either in initiation or in progression of osteoarthritis. Adaptive immune cells, in particular T cells, have been demonstrated to play a role in the development of OA in animal models. However, the underlying mechanism is yet unclear. Our aim was to correlate the frequency and phenotype of tissue-infiltrating T cells in the synovial tissue and infrapatellar fat pad with radiographic grading. Our results show that CD8+ T cells are increased in osteoarthritic patients with higher radiographic grading. When peripheral blood CD8+ T cells were examined, we show that CD8+ T cells possess a significantly higher level of activation than its CD4+ T cell counterpart (P < 0.0001). Our results suggest a role for CD8+ T cells and recruitment of these activated circulating peripheral blood CD8+ T cells to the knee triggering local inflammation within the knee joint.

Project description:Background Infrapatellar fat pad (IPFP) quality has been implicated as a marker for predicting knee osteoarthritis (KOA); however, no valid quantification for subtle IPFP abnormalities has been established. Purpose To investigate whether MRI-based three-dimensional texture analysis of IPFP abnormalities could help predict incident radiographic KOA. Materials and Methods In this prospective nested case-control study, 690 participants whose knees were at risk for KOA were included from the Pivotal Osteoarthritis Initiative MRI Analyses incident osteoarthritis cohort. All knees had a Kellgren-Lawrence grade of 1 or less at baseline. During the 4-year follow-up, case participants were matched 1:1 to control participants, with incident radiographic KOA as the outcome. MRI scans were segmented at the incident time point of KOA (hereafter, P0), 1 year before P0 (hereafter, P-1), and baseline. MRI-based three-dimensional texture analysis was performed to extract IPFP texture features. Least absolute shrinkage and selection operator and multivariable logistic regressions were applied in the development cohort and evaluated in the test cohort. The area under the receiver operating characteristic curve (AUC) was used to evaluate the discriminative value of the clinical score, IPFP texture score, and MRI Osteoarthritis Knee Score. Results Participants were allocated to development (n = 500, 340 women; mean age, 60 years) and test (n = 190, 120 women; mean age, 61 years) cohorts. In both cohorts, IPFP texture scores (AUC ≥0.75 for all) showed greater discrimination than clinical scores (AUC ≤0.69 for all) at baseline, P-1, and P0, with significant differences in pairwise comparisons (P ≤ .002 for all). Greater predictive and concurrent validities of IPFP texture scores (AUC ≥0.75 for all) compared with MRI Osteoarthritis Knee Scores (AUC ≤0.66 for all) were also demonstrated (P < .001 for all). Conclusion MRI-based three-dimensional texture of the infrapatellar fat pad was associated with future development of knee osteoarthritis.
