Histopathologic Analysis of the Morpho‐Functional Zones of the Human Acetabular Labrum

Clinical Anatomy, Volume 39, Issue 7, Page 787-800, October 2026.
ABSTRACT The structural and functional adaptation of soft tissues to mechanical load controls their ability to withstand injury and influences their capacity for healing. Similar to the knee meniscus, the acetabular labrum exhibits zonal differences in mechanical load distribution, resulting in distinct regions with unique structural and functional ...

Juglanin inhibits IL-1β-induced inflammation in human chondrocytes

Artificial Cells, Nanomedicine, and Biotechnology, 2019
Osteoarthritis (OA) is one of the most characterized joint diseases associated with chondrocyte apoptosis. Juglanin has been reported to have anti-inflammation activity. This study aimed to evaluate the protective anti-inflammatory effects of juglanin in

Expression of COL6A1 in Tumor Matrix of Cholangiocarcinoma and Its Mechanism of Tumor Progression

Cancer Reports, Volume 9, Issue 10, October 2026.
ABSTRACT Background Cholangiocarcinoma (CCA), a malignant tumor originating from the bile duct epithelial cells, is characterized by aggressive invasion and poor prognosis. Abnormal remodeling of the tumor microenvironment plays a pivotal role in its disease progression.

Proteolytic activities of human ADAMTS-5: comparative studies with ADAMTS-4.

The Journal of biological chemistry, 2007
Aggrecanases have been characterized as proteinases that cleave the Glu373-Ala374 bond of the aggrecan core protein, and they are multidomain metalloproteinases belonging to the ADAMTS (adamalysin with thrombospondin type 1 motifs) family. The first aggrecanases discovered were ADAMTS-4 (aggrecanase 1) and ADAMTS-5 (aggrecanase 2).

Immune cells in the pathogenesis of abdominal aortic aneurysm: Roles, regulation and targeted interventions

Clinical and Translational Discovery, Volume 6, Issue 5, October 2026.
This review provides a comprehensive overview of how macrophages, neutrophils, T cells and other immune cells infiltrate the aortic wall, undergo phenotypic shifts and interact with one another in abdominal aortic aneurysm (AAA). Background Abdominal aortic aneurysm (AAA) is a lethal degenerative vascular disease with no approved clinical drugs. Immune

USP25 stabilises GLI1 through K48‐linked deubiquitination within a reciprocal regulatory circuit in osteoarthritis models

Clinical and Translational Medicine, Volume 16, Issue 10, October 2026.
GLI1‐centred USP25‐GLI1 reciprocal regulation in OA‐relevant models. Hedgehog/GLI1 signalling transcriptionally reinforces USP25 expression, while USP25 deubiquitinates and stabilises GLI1. This reciprocal circuit is associated with inflammatory and cartilage‐catabolic changes in the tested models.

Functional evolution of ADAMTS genes: Evidence from analyses of phylogeny and gene organization

BMC Evolutionary Biology, 2005
Background The ADAMTS (A Disintegrin-like and Metalloprotease with Thrombospondin motifs) proteins are a family of metalloproteases with sequence similarity to the ADAM proteases, that contain the thrombospondin type 1 sequence repeat motifs (TSRs ...

Dehydroepiandrosterone inhibits ADAMTS expression via an ERK-dependent mechanism in chondrocytes.

PLoS ONE
Osteoarthritis (OA) is a joint disease in which cartilage degradation is the hallmark pathological change. In this study, we investigated the anti-osteoarthritic effects of DHEA in rabbit chondrocytes.
