Dysregulation of Wingless and Int‐1 (Wnt) signaling has been strongly associated with development and progression of osteoarthritis (OA). Here, we set out to investigate the independent effects of either mechanical stress (MS) or inflammation on Wnt signaling in human neocartilage pellets, and to relate this Wnt signaling to OA pathophysiology. OA synovium‐conditioned media (OAS‐CM) was collected after incubating synovium from human end‐stage OA joints for 24 h in medium. Cytokine levels in the OAS‐CM were determined with a multiplex immunoassay (Luminex). Human neocartilage pellets were exposed to 20% MS, 2% OAS‐CM or 1 ng/mL Interleukin‐1β (IL‐1β). Effects on expression levels of Wnt signaling members were determined by reverse transcription‐quantitative polymerase chain reaction. Additionally, the expression of these members in articular cartilage from human OA joints was analyzed in association with joint space narrowing (JSN) and osteophyte scores. Protein levels of IL‐1β, IL‐6, IL‐8, IL‐10, tumor necrosis factor α, and granulocyte‐macrophage colony‐stimulating factor positively correlated with each other. MS increased noncanonical WNT5A and FOS expression. In contrast, these genes were downregulated upon stimulation with OAS‐CM or IL‐1β. Furthermore, Wnt inhibitors DKK1 and FRZB decreased in response to OAS‐CM or IL‐1β exposure. Finally, expression of WNT5A in OA articular cartilage was associated with increased JSN scores, but not osteophyte scores. Our results demonstrate that MS and inflammatory stimuli have opposite effects on canonical and noncanonical Wnt signaling in human neocartilage. Considering the extent to which MS and inflammation contribute to OA in individual patients, we hypothesize that targeting specific Wnt pathways offers a more effective, individualized approach.
