However, its role in rheumatoid arthritis (RA) is yet to be revealed.</p><p><bold>Objective:</bold> We evaluated the effects of oridonin on the survival and autophagy of RA-fibroblast-like synoviocytes (FLSs).</p><p><bold>Materials and methods:</bold> RA-FLSs were treated with oridonin at serial concentrations of 0, 2, 4, 6, 8 and 10 µg/mL for 24, 48 and 72 h. Then, cell proliferation and apoptosis were measured. A GFP-LC3 plasmid was transfected into the cells to determine autophagy.</p><p><bold>Results:</bold> Oridonin suppressed RA-FLS proliferation in a dose-dependent manner. The half maximal inhibitory concentrations (IC<sub>50</sub>) of oridonin at 24, 48 and 72 h were 8.28, 7.88 and 8.35 µg/mL, respectively. Treatment with oridonin for 24 h increased apoptosis by 4.1%, and increased the protein levels of Bax and cleaved caspase-3 but significantly decreased the levels of IL-1β in the culture supernatant (<italic>p</italic> < 0.05). In addition, 6 h of oridonin treatment significantly decreased the number of GFP-LC3 punctate dots and inhibited the protein levels of ATG5 and Beclin1 by 80.01% and 42.12%, respectively. Chloroquine (CQ) significantly reinforced the effects of oridonin on inhibition of autophagy, suppression of proliferation, and induction of apoptosis in RA-FLSs (<italic>p</italic> < 0.05).</p><p><bold>Conclusions:</bold> Our results indicate that treatment with oridonin in combination with CQ inhibits autophagy and cell proliferation and induces apoptosis in RA-FLSs more effectively than treatment oridonin alone. This finding indicates that oridonin is a potential therapeutic agent for RA.</p></div></front><back><div1 type="bibliography"><listBibl><biblStruct><analytic><author><name sortKey="Alsaleh, G"

Cartilage degradation, synovial hyperplasia and cellular infiltration of multiple cell types are the pathological hallmarks of RA (Humby et al. <xref rid="CIT0014" ref-type="bibr">2007</xref>). RA affects nearly 0.5–1% of the world’s population (Gibofsky <xref rid="CIT0011" ref-type="bibr">2012</xref>). In China, approximately five million people are newly diagnosed with RA each year (Yu et al. <xref rid="CIT0036" ref-type="bibr">2018</xref>). Presently, RA treatment relies on nonsteroidal anti-inflammatory drugs, steroids, disease-modifying anti-rheumatic drugs and biologic response modifiers, which often exhibit potential biotoxicity (Tlustochowicz et al. <xref rid="CIT0032" ref-type="bibr">2018</xref>).</p><p>Fibroblast-like synoviocytes (FLSs) are cells derived from the mesenchyme that line the internal synovium and play an important role in RA progression (Bartok and Firestein <xref rid="CIT0002" ref-type="bibr">2010</xref>). FLSs directly participate in synovial hyperplasia (Tu et al. <xref rid="CIT0033" ref-type="bibr">2018</xref>). In the synovial tissues of patients with RA, RA-FLSs proliferate aberrantly when stimulated with inflammatory cytokines such as IL-1, IL-6 and TNF-α (McInnes et al. <xref rid="CIT0024" ref-type="bibr">2000</xref>; Okamoto et al. <xref rid="CIT0027" ref-type="bibr">2008</xref>; Bartok and Firestein <xref rid="CIT0002" ref-type="bibr">2010</xref>). Additionally, RA-FLSs exhibit resistance to apoptosis (Alsaleh et al. <xref rid="CIT0001" ref-type="bibr">2016</xref>; Jiao et al. <xref rid="CIT0017" ref-type="bibr">2018</xref>; Kim et al. <xref rid="CIT0019" ref-type="bibr">2018</xref>). This dysregulation of RA-FLSs contributes to hyperplasia of the synovial lining and the infiltration of inflammatory cells into the sub-lining. Furthermore, RA-FLSs release multiple factors, including inflammatory cytokines, chemokines and matrix-degrading enzymes such as TNF-α, IL-1β, prostanoids and matrix metallo-proteinases, leading to the modulation of immune cells and proteolytic destruction of the extracellular matrix, cartilage and bone (McInnes et al. <xref rid="CIT0024" ref-type="bibr">2000</xref>; Okamoto et al. <xref rid="CIT0027" ref-type="bibr">2008</xref>; Bartok and Firestein <xref rid="CIT0002" ref-type="bibr">2010</xref>). Recently, RA-FLSs were recognized as novel therapeutic targets (Mor et al. <xref rid="CIT0026" ref-type="bibr">2005</xref>; Sacre et al. <xref rid="CIT0030" ref-type="bibr">2005</xref>).</p><p>Autophagy is an evolutionarily conserved secondary lysosomal degradation process by which cells degrade and recycle intracellular components in response to environmental stress (Mizushima <xref rid="CIT0025" ref-type="bibr">2007</xref>). Autophagy is critical for cellular homeostasis, innate and adaptive immune responses, and the regulation of inflammation (Deretic and Levine <xref rid="CIT0005" ref-type="bibr">2009</xref>; Dokladny et al. <xref rid="CIT0006" ref-type="bibr">2013</xref>). Recent studies have shown that dysregulation of autophagy occurs in rheumatic diseases (Dokladny et al. <xref rid="CIT0006" ref-type="bibr">2013</xref>; Rockel and Kapoor <xref rid="CIT0029" ref-type="bibr">2017</xref>; Hua et al. <xref rid="CIT0013" ref-type="bibr">2018</xref>), including systemic lupus erythematosus, osteoarthritis and RA. In patients with RA, autophagy is dramatically enhanced in the synovial linings of the synovial tissues and in RA-FLSs (Shin et al. <xref rid="CIT0031" ref-type="bibr">2010</xref>; Yang et al. <xref rid="CIT0035" ref-type="bibr">2017</xref>; Zhu et al. <xref rid="CIT0037" ref-type="bibr">2017</xref>). In addition, the inhibition of proteasomal activity in RA-FLSs increases LC3-II protein levels and prolongs RA-FLS cell survival (Kato et al. <xref rid="CIT0018" ref-type="bibr">2014</xref>), indicating that increased autophagy in RA-FLSs promotes RA-associated synovitis.</p><p>Oridonin, a bioactive diterpenoid isolated from <italic>Rabdosia rubescens</italic> (Benth.) Miq. (Myrtaceae), exhibits various pharmacological and physiological activities, including antibacterial, anti-inflammatory, pro-apoptotic, anticancer and neurological effects (Ikezoe et al. <xref rid="CIT0016" ref-type="bibr">2003</xref>; Li et al. <xref rid="CIT0022" ref-type="bibr">2011</xref>; He et al. <xref rid="CIT0012" ref-type="bibr">2018</xref>). Oridonin stimulates apoptosis in lung cancer, colorectal cancer, hepatocellular carcinoma and RA-FLSs (Ikezoe et al. <xref rid="CIT0016" ref-type="bibr">2003</xref>; Li et al. <xref rid="CIT0022" ref-type="bibr">2011</xref>). In the present study, we explored the effects of oridonin on the proliferation, apoptosis and autophagy of RA-FLSs. Additionally, we evaluated the effects of oridonin in combination with chloroquine (CQ), an inhibitor of autophagy, on RA-FLSs.</p></sec><sec id="s0002"><title>Materials and methods</title><sec id="s0003"><title>Cell culture</title><p>RA-FLSs were obtained from patients admitted to the Shenzhen Nanshan People’s Hospital.

The role of FLSs in the onset and progression of RA is well established (Bartok and Firestein <xref rid="CIT0002" ref-type="bibr">2010</xref>). FLSs are implicated in several pathological aspects of RA via the promotion of synovitis and pannus growth, and ultimately cartilage/bone destruction (Bartok and Firestein <xref rid="CIT0002" ref-type="bibr">2010</xref>).</p><p>In patients with RA, FLSs undergo hyperplasia due to dysregulated proliferation and compromised autophagy. The capacity of RA-FLSs for hyper-survival is considered a tumour-like characteristic and leads to the formation of an aggressive pannus within the synovium (Firestein <xref rid="CIT0009" ref-type="bibr">1996</xref>; Bartok and Firestein <xref rid="CIT0002" ref-type="bibr">2010</xref>).</p><p>Oridonin stimulates apoptosis and suppresses proliferation in a variety of cancer cells, such as prostate, breast and non-small cell lung cancer cells (Ikezoe et al. <xref rid="CIT0016" ref-type="bibr">2003</xref>; Li et al. <xref rid="CIT0022" ref-type="bibr">2011</xref>). In the present study, we found that oridonin suppresses proliferation of RA-FLSs in a dose-dependent but not time-dependent manner.</p><p>Autophagy plays an important role in homeostasis, mediating the digestion and recycling of cytoplasmic organelles, proteins and macromolecules (Feng et al. <xref rid="CIT0008" ref-type="bibr">2018</xref>). The generation of autophagosomes is a hallmark of autophagy (Mizushima <xref rid="CIT0025" ref-type="bibr">2007</xref>). Beclin1 plays a critical role in the initial phase of autophagy (Parzych and Klionsky <xref rid="CIT0028" ref-type="bibr">2014</xref>); complexes involving PI3KCIII with either Beclin1-UVRAG or Beclin1-Ambral activate autophagy and initiate nucleation (Parzych and Klionsky <xref rid="CIT0028" ref-type="bibr">2014</xref>). During autophagophore elongation, the Atg12–Atg5–Atg16L complex acts as an E3-ubiquitin-like ligase, conjugating phosphatidylethanolamine to LC3-I and converting it to LC3-II. Then, LC3-II attaches to the surfaces of autophagophores and promotes autophagophore expansion (Hurley and Young <xref rid="CIT0015" ref-type="bibr">2017</xref>). In the synovial tissues of patients with RA, autophagy is enhanced, and the protein levels of Beclin1 and LC3 are upregulated (Xu et al. <xref rid="CIT0034" ref-type="bibr">2013</xref>; Zhu et al. <xref rid="CIT0037" ref-type="bibr">2017</xref>). To explore the effects of oridonin on autophagy in RA-FLSs, we determined the protein levels of ATG5 and Beclin1 in treated and untreated cells. Our results show that oridonin treatment dramatically downregulated ATG5 and Beclin1 levels and impaired autophagy in RA-FLSs.</p><p>Apoptosis is the mechanism by which cells undergo genetically programmed regulated self-elimination that functions as a homeostatic mechanism to maintain cell populations in tissues and is a defence mechanism against damaged cells (Elmore <xref rid="CIT0007" ref-type="bibr">2007</xref>). Several studies indicate a connection between dysregulated apoptosis and RA (Xu et al. <xref rid="CIT0034" ref-type="bibr">2013</xref>; Jiao et al. <xref rid="CIT0017" ref-type="bibr">2018</xref>; Kim et al. <xref rid="CIT0019" ref-type="bibr">2018</xref>). Resistance to apoptosis has been observed in RA-FLSs. Therefore, we assessed levels of apoptosis in oridonin-treated cells. Our results demonstrate that oridonin enhanced apoptosis. Consistent with the proliferation results, the induction of apoptosis was dose-dependent but not time-dependent; there was no significant increase in apoptosis in cells treated for 48 or 72 h compared with those treated for 24 h.</p><p>The crosstalk between apoptosis and autophagy is complicated and experimental results on the topic are often contradictory. This crosstalk can be categorized into three main types: cooperative apoptosis and autophagy to induce cell death; autophagy that blocks apoptosis by promoting cell survival; and autophagy that enables apoptosis to induce cell death without autophagocytic cell death (Booth et al. <xref rid="CIT0003" ref-type="bibr">2014</xref>; Marino et al. <xref rid="CIT0023" ref-type="bibr">2014</xref>). In RA-FLSs, multiple mechanisms may contribute to compromised apoptosis, including increased anti-apoptotic factors (Kurowska et al. <xref rid="CIT0020" ref-type="bibr">2002</xref>; Jiao et al. <xref rid="CIT0017" ref-type="bibr">2018</xref>), suppressed pro-apoptotic factors (Garcia et al. <xref rid="CIT0010" ref-type="bibr">2010</xref>) and increased autophagy (Dai and Hu <xref rid="CIT0004" ref-type="bibr">2016</xref>). Reduced apoptosis correlates with enhanced autophagy in the synovial tissues of patients with RA (Xu et al. <xref rid="CIT0034" ref-type="bibr">2013</xref>). Further, it has been suggested that in fibroblasts from patients with RA, autophagy protects cells from death by alleviating the ER stress response (Xu et al. <xref rid="CIT0034" ref-type="bibr">2013</xref>). Therefore, we hypothesized that CQ could enhance the effects of oridonin on the suppression of RA-FLS survival. Our results show that treatment with a combination of CQ and oridonin inhibits autophagy and cell proliferation and induces apoptosis more effectively than oridonin alone.</p></sec><sec id="s0017"><title>Conclusions</title><p>Oridonin can impair autophagy and proliferation, promote apoptosis, and attenuate IL-1β secretion in RA-FLSs. Autophagy inhibition with CQ significantly enhances the anti-survival effects of oridonin. The findings of the present study indicate that oridonin is a potential therapeutic agent for RA, although the topic requires further research.</p></sec></body><back><sec id="s0018"><title>Disclosure
