Wednesday, June 2, 2021

Findings from the study indicate its investigational oral osteoarthritis (OA) drug APPA can reduce reactive oxygen species (ROS) production and senescence of human articular chondrocytes, both indicators associated with OA pathogenesis.

Key Points: 
  • Findings from the study indicate its investigational oral osteoarthritis (OA) drug APPA can reduce reactive oxygen species (ROS) production and senescence of human articular chondrocytes, both indicators associated with OA pathogenesis.
  • In chondrocytes, senescence-associated secretory phenotype factors, such as pro-inflammatory cytokines and extracellular matrix degrading enzymes, can contribute to the development and progression of OA[2][3].
  • This research builds on previous work from INBIC and other laboratories that showed APPA modifies a number of pathways involved in the development of OA.
