Osteo-articular diseases are characterized by a dysregulation of joint and/or bone homeostasis. These include diseases affecting the joints originally, such as osteoarthritis and rheumatoid arthritis, or the bone, such as osteoporosis. Inflammation and the involvement of Wingless-related integration site (Wnt) signaling pathways are key pathophysiological features of these diseases resulting in tissue degradation by matrix-degrading enzymes, namely matrix metalloproteinases (MMPs) and a disintegrin and metalloproteinases with thrombospondin motifs (ADAMTs), secreted by the joint resident cells and/or by infiltrating immune cells. Activation of Wnt signaling pathways is modulated by different families of proteins, including Dickkopfs and the secreted Frizzled-related proteins (sFRPs). The sFRP family is composed of five secreted glycoproteins in mammals that regulate Wnt signaling in the extracellular compartment. Indeed, sFRPs are able to bind both to the soluble Wnt ligands and to their cell membrane receptors, the Frizzled proteins. Their expression profile is altered in osteo-articular diseases, suggesting that they could account for the abnormal activation of Wnt pathways. In the present article, we review how sFRPs are more than simple antagonists of the Wnt signaling pathways and discuss their pathophysiological relevance in the context of osteo-articular diseases. We detail their Wnt-dependent and their Wnt-independent roles, with a particular emphasis on their ability to modulate the inflammatory response and extracellular matrix (ECM) remodeling. We also discuss their potential therapeutic use with a focus on bone remodeling, osteo-articular cancers, and tissue engineering.
