Intermittent fasting has profound positive effects on many health measures and can improve functional outcomes for many diseases.313 Animal research shows that intermittent fasting is protective against fibrosis of organs,314 and it is also known suppress inflammation313,315 and downregulate the inflammatory cytokines IL-1, IL-6 and TNF- in humans.316 Intermittent fasting suppresses the activity of NLRP3 inflammasomes,313 providing what appears to be a cumulative anti-fibrotic effect. Turhan, E., Doral, M. N., Atay, A. O. Not doing so is misleading and makes interpretation of results difficult. Blessing WA, Williamson AK, Kirsch JR, Grinstaff MW. 113, 251264 (2000). Hepatol. We now know that resolution is an active biochemical process mediated by these specialised pro-resolving LMs (SPMs), which act as a stop signal for inflammation and a return to homoeostasis.109 Specific SPMs have distinct anti-inflammatory, anti-microbial and pro-resolving effects.183,184 SPMs are derived from essential fatty acids, particularly omega 3 polyunsaturated fatty acids (-3 PUFA) found in fish oils and some plants, and are necessary in the human diet.185 SPMs have synergistic effects on immune function,186 downregulating the production of TNF- and IL-1,184 reducing pain, inhibiting neutrophil migration and protecting against uncontrolled inflammatory responses.185,187, Oral supplements of -3 PUFA result in biologically active levels of SPMs in serum including the important subtypes RVD1 and RVD2,188 and in synovial fluid, where SPM levels were negatively correlated with pain.189 These and other SPMs are able to switch macrophage phenotypes from pro-inflammatory to pro-resolving (ref.183 and references within), and reduce the expression of inflammasomes.184 SPM profiles in patients correlate with outcomes, with a lack of them linked to delayed resolution of inflammation.184. The IFP and pouches within the knee provide relatively contained spaces to trap injected therapeutic agents. Orthopedics 33, 15 (2010). This includes residual arthrofibrosis with a stiff joint, and active arthrofibrosis in which inflammatory processes and ECM formation are continuing. Swelling or warmth in the joint 1 . Lan, H.

Perspect. 23, 516524 (2013). 103). CPM may be useful for minimising joint contractions, however, research into the use of CPM to treat arthrofibrosis is lacking. AMPK orchestrates an elaborate cascade protecting tissue from fibrosis and aging. Milosavljevic, N. et al. B. et al. Nature 447, 869874 (2007). A 2014 Cochrane Review that analysed 24 randomised controlled trials of CPM following TKR over 117 days found that CPM use may slightly increase ROM and quality of life, although these were not clinically relevant, and low-quality evidence to indicate that CPM reduces the risk of MUA by 4%.236.

For example, patients with more severe ROM limitations may not benefit as much as those with relatively good ROM before treatment, but this type of outcome typically can not be determined from the published data. Gut bacteria produce short-chain fatty acids from non-digestible dietary fibre, which counter inflammation and suppress the cleavage of protease caspase-1 and secretion of IL-18.302, In addition, consumption of soy products may help reduce the levels of inflammatory cytokines. Production of activated TGF- is stimulated by oxidative stress,138 platelet degranulation144 and ROS released after injury or surgical insult.94 While ROS activates TGF- and results in apoptosis,150 TGF- also induces the production of ROS,101,138,151 thus creating a positive feedback cycle. In addition to pre-surgery applications, biomarkers could also be used post-operatively for all joint surgeries to monitor potential for developing arthrofibrosis, and following a diagnosis, to monitor the condition and its resolution. Pharmacol. Thank you for visiting nature.com. J. Med. Bian, E. B. et al. The production of IL-1 by macrophages further stimulates inflammasomes. In support of this, Panni et al.7 report that painful stiff knees do not respond well to arthroscopic surgery to lyse adhesions, and Babis et al.27 report that surgery to treat arthrofibrosis in TKR patients resulted in worse outcomes for pain in all patients, with some also losing flexion.

Extracellular matrix degradation in liver fibrosis: biochemistry and regulation. The most common etiologies are related to soft tissue trauma with subsequent fibrotic and contractile scar tissue formation within the ligaments and capsule of the ankle.

However, it can have different effects depending on the type of cells that secreted it, and the presence of other cytokines. J. Vasc. The Shelbourne classification34 has been widely used for knee arthrofibrosis in the past, but was developed from patients with arthrofibrosis arising from ACL reconstruction. These activate immune cells, causing more inflammation and a cascade of events that stimulates fibroblasts to differentiate into myofibroblasts, the key mediators of fibrosis. A common complication following total knee replacement (TKR) is arthrofibrosis, a severe stiffening of the knee caused by scar tissue. Am. Bone Jt.

Postoperative infection after the anterior cruciate ligament reconstruction (ACLR) can destroy the knee cartilage, necessitate graft removal, and cause arthrofibrosis, instability, limitation of motion, chronic pain, and disability. ACL tears have been demonstrated to increase the levels of IL-1 and TNF- in synovial fluid, with levels increasing with the degree of damage and with time since injury.82 It has been suggested that higher levels of these cytokines are responsible for the later development of OA.82 TGF- is also upregulated in the IFP at 2 weeks post-ACL reconstruction surgery,58 potentially contributing to the high rates of arthrofibrosis after this type of surgery.
