Clinical and research applications of synthetic bone substitutes in equine veterinary medicine: A systematic review

open access: yesEquine Veterinary Journal, EarlyView.
Abstract Background Bone grafting in equine medicine offers a promising contribution to treating orthopaedic developmental diseases and chondral, osteochondral and segmental bone defects. Among grafts, synthetic bone substitutes—alloplastics—show favourable biological properties addressing numerous limitations presented by autografts, xenografts and ...

Mass culture of equine synovial fluid‐derived mesenchymal stromal cells using nonwoven polyethylene terephthalate fabrics

open access: yesEquine Veterinary Journal, EarlyView.
Abstract Background Culture protocols need to yield 100 million equine synovial fluid (SF)‐derived mesenchymal stromal cells (SF‐MSCs) in around 3 weeks are needed, before these cells can be evaluated as agents of articular repair in clinical trials. Objectives To investigate mass culture of equine SF‐MSC culture protocols using nonwoven polyethylene ...

Review of articular cartilage repair techniques and their application in the horse

open access: yesEquine Veterinary Journal, EarlyView.
Abstract Articular cartilage lesions represent a significant career‐limiting problem in athletic horses. A healthy articular cartilage surface is vital for optimal joint function, and defects can result in irreversible degenerative changes. Successful treatment of cartilage lesions remains a long‐standing challenge for orthopaedic surgeons, prompting ...

CD8+ T‐cells, CD86+ macrophages and TNF‐α signalling pathways are correlated with fetlock osteoarthritis in racehorses

open access: yesEquine Veterinary Journal, EarlyView.
Abstract Background There is emerging evidence for the role of the immune system in osteoarthritis (OA) pathophysiology; however, little is known about how immune cells and the synovial transcriptome are altered in naturally occurring equine OA. Objectives To evaluate synovial fluid (SF) and synovial membrane (SM) immune cell populations and the SM ...

Melatonin Exerts Chondroprotective Effects Against Osteoarthritis by Promoting PI3K/AKT/FoxO3‐Mediated Mitophagy

open access: yesThe Kaohsiung Journal of Medical Sciences, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT Osteoarthritis (OA) is a prevalent degenerative joint disease. This study combines bioinformatics analysis with in vivo and in vitro experiments to elucidate the molecular mechanisms through which melatonin (MT) regulates mitophagy to alleviate OA.

USP7 Regulates TRPV1 Deubiquitination to Mediate Chondrocyte Ferroptosis and Alleviate Osteoarthritis

open access: yesThe Kaohsiung Journal of Medical Sciences, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT Osteoarthritis (OA) is a common degenerative joint disease characterized by chondrocyte dysfunction. In this study, we explored the function and mechanism of ubiquitin‐specific protease 7 (USP7) in chondrocyte ferroptosis in OA. The USP7, TRPV1, collagen II, and GPX4 levels in knee joint tissue were detected using immunohistochemistry ...
