Patophysiology of articular cartilage in elderly [PDF]

open access: yesBMC Geriatrics, 2010
Background Osteoarthritis is a degenerative disease involving diarthrosis articulations. The evolution of the disease is very slow; the first changes regard the cell- matrix morpho-functional unit of articular cartilage called chondron by Benninghoff.

Harnessing Photo‐Energy Conversion in Nanomaterials for Precision Theranostics

open access: yesAdvanced Materials, EarlyView.
Harnessing photo‐energy conversion in nanomaterials enables precision theranostics through light‐driven mechanisms such as photoluminescence, photothermal, photoelectric, photoacoustic, photo‐triggered surface‐enhanced Raman scattering (SERS), and photodynamic processes. This review explores six fundamental principles of photo‐energy conversion, recent

Preliminary characterisation of the surface of cartilage following exposure to saturated and unsaturated synthetic lips [PDF]

open access: yes, 2011
Articular cartilage is covered by a microscopic structure known as surface amorphous layer. This surface structure is often the first victim of attack during cartilage degeneration, thereby resulting in a gross impairment in cartilage function such as ...

Cryoprotectant kinetic analysis of a human articular cartilage vitrification protocol [PDF]

open access: yes, 2016
We recently published a protocol to vitrify human articular cartilage and a method of cryoprotectant removal in preparation for transplantation. The current study’s goal was to perform a cryoprotectant kinetic analysis and theoretically shorten the ...

4D Bioprinted Self‐Folding Scaffolds Enhance Cartilage Formation in the Engineering of Trachea

open access: yesAdvanced Materials Technologies, Volume 10, Issue 6, March 18, 2025.
A bilayer self‐folding scaffold, triggerable by humidity, is fabricated via 4D bioprinting for trachea engineering. An analytical model is derived to predict its radius of curvature, enabling its scalability. Cartilage progenitor cells seeded on the scaffold perceive scaffold final curvature and react to it, by enhancing the upregulation of pro ...
