Patients with temporomandibular dysfunction (TMD) usually suffer from pathology or malpositioning of the temporomandibular joint (TMJ) disk, leading to the degenerative lesion of condyles. Kartogenin can promote the repair of damaged cartilage. This study aimed to explore whether intra-articular injection of kartogenin could alleviate the TMJ injury induced by type II collagenase. We measured the head withdrawal threshold and found that kartogenin alleviated the pain around TMD induced by type II collagenase. We observed the morphology of the condylar surface and found that kartogenin protected the integration of the condylar surface. We analyzed the density of the subchondral bone and found that kartogenin minimized the damage of TMJ injury to the subchondral bone. We next explored the histological changes and found that kartogenin increased the thickness of the proliferative layer and more collagen formation in the superficial layer. Then, to further ensure whether kartogenin promotes cell proliferation in the condyle, we performed immunohistochemistry of proliferating cell nuclear antigen (PCNA). The ratio of PCNA-positive cells was significantly increased in the kartogenin group. Next, immunofluorescence of TGF-ß1 and SMAD3 was performed to reveal that kartogenin activated the TGF-ß/SMAD pathway in the proliferative layer. In conclusion, kartogenin may have a therapeutic effect on TMJ injury by promoting cell proliferation in cartilage and subchondral bone. Kartogenin may be promising as an intra-articular injection agent to treat TMD.
