PART I. Inhibitory effect of natural product extracts and single compounds on OA 21

1. Schisandra extract and Schisandrol A suppress OA progression 21

1.1. Schisandra extract regulates catabolic factors induced by IL-1β in mouse articular chondrocytes 21

1.2. Oral gavage of Schisandra extract prevents cartilage destruction in the DMM mouse OA model 26

1.3. Schisandrol A controls catabolic factors in chondrocytes stimulated with IL-1β 30

1.4. Schisandrol A modulates catabolic factors and attenuates cartilage degradation in an experimental OA mouse model 34

1.5. Schisandra extract regulates NF-κB and MAPK signaling pathways 37

2. Safflower seed extract represses OA pathogenesis 43

2.1. Safflower seed extract reduces Mmp3 and Mmp13 levels, and collagenase activity in chondrocytes stimulated by IL-1β 43

2.2. Safflower seed extract attenuates cartilage degradation in a DMM mouse model 47

2.3. N-feruloyl serotonin and N-(p-coumaroyl) serotonin reduce catabolic factors in IL-1β-stimulated chondrocytes 51

2.4. Safflower seed extract, N-feruloyl serotonin and N-(p-coumaroyl) serotonin suppress IL-1β-induced NF-κB signaling 55

PART Ⅱ. Roles of a BRD4 inhibitor, ABC in OA 59

ABC modulates OA progression by controlling catabolic factors 59

1. ABC reduces the expression of IL-1β-induced catabolic factors in mouse articular chondrocytes 59

2. ABC modulates the decay of cartilage in the DMM mouse model 63

3. ABC modulates the IL-1β-induced NF-κB and MAPK signaling pathways in articular chondrocytes 67

IV. Discussion 69

V. Conclusions 82
