Effect of mechanical stimuli on physicochemical properties of joint fluid in osteoarthritis.

To analyze the differences in the effects of different mechanical stimuli on cells, cytokines, and proteins in synovial fluid of osteoarthritis joints, and to elucidate the indirect mechanism by which mechanical signals remodel the synovial fluid microenvironment through tissue cells. Systematically integrate recent literature, focusing on the regulatory effects of different mechanical stimuli on the physicochemical properties of synovial fluid. Analyze the dynamic process by which mechanical stimuli regulate secretory and metabolic activities through tissue cells, thereby altering the physicochemical properties of cytokines and proteins. Appropriate mechanical stimuli activate mechanical signals in chondrocytes, macrophages, and synovial cells, thereby influencing cellular metabolic activities, including inhibiting the release of pro-inflammatory factors and promoting the secretion of anti-inflammatory factors, and regulating the expression of matrix and inflammation-related proteins such as cartilage oligomeric matrix protein, peptidoglycan recognition protein 4, and matrix metalloproteinases. Mechanical stimuli act on tissue cells, indirectly reshaping the synovial fluid microenvironment through metabolic activities, thereby regulating the pathological process of osteoarthritis.
