研究问题
This therapeutic gap may partly reflect the complexity of OA, which is driven not by a single pathway but by persistent interactions between damaged structural tissues and dysregulated cell populations within the joint [].；Immune dysregulation has been studied extensively in autoimmune and inflammatory arthritis [, , ], whereas the contribution of B cells to OA remains incompletely defined [].；However, whether these alterations merely reflect the inflammatory joint environment or represent a senescence‐associated, pathogenic B‐cell state that actively contributes to cartilage degeneration remains unclear.
方法
This study integrated single‐cell RNA sequencing (scRNA‐seq), spatial transcriptomics, tissue‐level validation, cell‐based functional assays, genetic MIF deficiency, and a biomaterial intervention to define the role of the senescence‐associated B cell–MIF axis in osteoarthritis (OA) progression and joint aging.；The discovery cohort comprised 24 mouse knee‐joint samples from healthy controls, naturally aged mice (15 and 30 months), and destabilization of the medial meniscus (DMM)‐induced OA mice collected 2, 4, 8, 12, or 24 weeks after surgery.；Multiple sections, regions of interest, microscopic fields, or cells obtained from the same mouse were treated as technical or nested observations and were summarized within each mouse before between‐group statistical analysis.；Libraries were sequenced on an Illumina platform using paired‐end sequencing.
核心结论
To characterize cellular alterations associated with OA progression and joint aging, we performed single‐cell RNA sequencing on knee‐joint tissues collected from wild‐type control mice, naturally aged mice, and mice at multiple time points after OA induction.；B‐cell abundance was lower in aged and late‐stage OA joints than in healthy controls (Figure ).；Immunofluorescence showed reduced Cd79a‐positive area together with increased FN1 deposition in diseased tissues (Figure ). ‖ 结论：In conclusion, our findings identify senescence‐associated B cells as key mediators of OA through MIF‐driven chondrocyte degeneration.
局限
By attenuating B‐cell senescence, limiting excessive plasma‐cell differentiation, and inhibiting MIF–CD74/CD44‐NF‐κB signaling, SQH hydrogel may reduce inflammatory cytokine and matrix‐degrading enzyme production, preserve cartilage homeostasis, and delay OA progression.；Future studies should aim to unravel the complex intercellular signaling networks orchestrated by other immune cells and cytokines in the osteoarthritic context.
