Schematic diagram illustrating the mechanisms of omentin-1 function in OA. The schematic diagram summarizes the mechanisms underlying the omentin-1-induced increase in the production of IL-4 in human OASFs via the PI3K, ERK, and AMPK pathways, which inhibited the expression of pro-inflammatory cytokines, while facilitating M2 macrophage polarization and antagonizing OA progression.
