Computational Models of Articular Cartilage [PDF]

Computational and Mathematical Methods in Medicine, 2013
In osteoarthritis, articular cartilage degenerates and eventually wears out, resulting in pain and disability. It is a major challenge in health care to prevent osteoarthritis or slow down the progression of the disease. The onset of osteoarthritis may result from an altered stress and strain state in cartilage, for example, due to an injury of ...

Cryopreservation of articular cartilage

Cryobiology, 2013
Cryopreservation has numerous practical applications in medicine, biotechnology, agriculture, forestry, aquaculture and biodiversity conservation, with huge potentials for biological cell and tissue banking. A specific tissue of interest for cryopreservation is the articular cartilage of the human knee joint for two major reasons: (1) clinically, there

Postnatal development of depth-dependent collagen density in ovine articular cartilage [PDF]

, 2010
Articular cartilage (AC) is the layer of tissue that covers the articulating ends of the bones in diarthrodial joints. Adult AC is characterised by a depth-dependent composition and structure of the extracellular matrix that results in depth-dependent ...

Conditional knockdown of hyaluronidase 2 in articular cartilage stimulates osteoarthritic progression in a mice model

Scientific Reports, 2017
The catabolism of hyaluronan in articular cartilage remains unclear. The aims of this study were to investigate the effects of hyaluronidase 2 (Hyal2) knockdown in articular cartilage on the development of osteoarthritis (OA) using genetic manipulated ...

Response of human engineered cartilage based on articular or nasal chondrocytes to interleukin-1? and low oxygen [PDF]

, 2012
Previous studies showed that human nasal chondrocytes (HNC) exhibit higher proliferation and chondrogenic capacity as compared to human articular chondrocytes (HAC).

Freeze-thaw treatment effects on the dynamic mechanical properties of articular cartilage.

, 2010
BACKGROUND: As a relatively non-regenerative tissue, articular cartilage has been targeted for cryopreservation as a method of mitigating a lack of donor tissue availability for transplant surgeries.

Dynamic stiffness of articular cartilage and potential repair materials [PDF]

, 2012
Cartilage has limited potential for self repair. Therefore, articular cartilage lesions often lead to early osteoarthritis. Early clinical results of cartilage replacement procedures such as autologous matrix-induced chondrogenesis (AMIC) seem promising,

Key roles of the superficial zone in articular cartilage physiology, pathology, and regeneration

Chinese Medical Journal
. The superficial zone (SFZ) of articular cartilage is an important interface that isolates deeper zones from the microenvironment of the articular cavity and is directly exposed to various biological and mechanical stimuli. The SFZ is not only a crucial
