Abstract
The good lubrication ability of articular cartilage holds significant importance in our daily lives. Osteoarthritis (OA), the most prevalent degenerative joint disease, causes cartilage damage, increased friction, and inflammation. However, the current clinical treatments for OA exhibit some defects. Recently, the sustained drug release systems with lubricating function have attracted considerable attention for treating OA. This review introduces the lubrication mechanism of cartilage, focusing particularly on the boundary lubrication mechanism. The research progress of boundary-lubricated biomaterials with drug delivery, including microcarriers, hydrogels, and nanoparticles in the treatment of OA by improving inter-articular lubrication and relieving inflammation is discussed and summarized. The efficacy and challenges of boundary-lubricated biomaterials with drug delivery in the treatment of OA are summarized, and the prospects are also discussed.
关节软骨的良好润滑能力对我们的日常生活具有重要意义。骨关节炎(OA)是最常见的关节退行性疾病,会导致软骨损伤、摩擦加剧和炎症。然而,目前临床上治疗 OA 的方法存在一些缺陷。最近,具有润滑功能的药物缓释系统在治疗 OA 方面引起了广泛关注。本综述介绍了软骨的润滑机制,尤其侧重于边界润滑机制。讨论并总结了具有给药功能的边界润滑生物材料(包括微载体、水凝胶和纳米颗粒)在通过改善关节间润滑和缓解炎症来治疗 OA 方面的研究进展。总结了边界润滑生物材料与药物递送在治疗 OA 方面的疗效和挑战,并讨论了其前景。
