ABSTRACT
Osteoarthritis (OA) is one of the most important causes of global disability, and dysfunction of chondrocytes is an important risk factor. The treatment of OA is still a challenge. Orexin-A is a hypothalamic peptide, and its effects in OA are unknown. In this study, we found that exposure to interleukin-1ß (IL-1ß) reduced the expression of orexin-2R, the receptor of orexin-A in TC-28a2 chondrocytes. Importantly, the senescence-associated ß-galactosidase (SA-ß-gal) staining assay demonstrated that orexin-A treatment ameliorates IL-1ß-induced cellular senescence. Importantly, the presence of IL-1ß significantly reduced the telomerase activity of TC-28a2 chondrocytes, which was rescued by orexin-A. We also found that orexin-A prevented IL-1ß-induced increase in the levels of Acetyl-p53 and the expression of p21. It is shown that orexin-A mitigates IL-1ß-induced reduction of sirtuin 3 (SIRT3). Silencing of SIRT3 abolished the protective effects of orexin-A against IL-1ß-induced cellular senescence. These results imply that orexin-A might serve as a promising therapeutic agent for OA.
