- W2166564704 abstract "Defensins are antibiotic peptides that are involved in host defence at epithelial and mesenchymal surfaces. Previous studies have shown the induction of human β-defensin-3 (HBD-3) in osteoarthritic joints, suggesting that these molecules have functions in addition to their ability to kill microbes. The aim of this study was to investigate the production of a further human β-defensin, named HBD-2, in osteoarthritis (OA) and to determine its regulation by inflammatory cytokines. Healthy and osteoarthritic cartilage was assessed for HBD-2 expression by RT-PCR, immunohistochemistry, and ELISA. C28/I2 chondrocytes, primary chondrocytes, and cartilage explants were cultured for in vitro studies. After 24 h of stimulation with tumour necrosis factor-α (TNF-α), interleukin-1 (IL-1) or IL-6, real-time RT-PCR and ELISA experiments were performed to evaluate the effect of these cytokines on the production of HBD-2. In contrast to healthy cartilage, HBD-2 expression was identified in most of the OA samples examined (eight of ten). Cytokines that are potentially involved in the pathogenesis of OA, namely TNF-α, IL-1, and IL-6, were transcriptional inducers of HBD-2 in cultured chondrocytes and cartilage explants in vitro, as measured by real-time RT-PCR and ELISA. These results illustrate the induction of HBD-2 in osteoarthritic cartilage and suggest that it is a further factor in the pathogenesis of OA. However, further studies are required to elucidate the role played by HBD-2 in osteoarthritic cartilage. Copyright © 2006 Pathological Society of Great Britain and Ireland.
