Contribution of postnatal collagen reorientation to depth-dependent mechanical properties of articular cartilage [PDF]

, 2011
The collagen fibril network is an important factor for the depth-dependent mechanical behaviour of adult articular cartilage (AC). Recent studies show that collagen orientation is parallel to the articular surface throughout the tissue depth in perinatal

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

Clinical Validation of Artificial Intelligence (AI)‐based Cartilage Segmentation Predicting Knee Replacement

Arthritis Care &Research, Accepted Article.
Objective For cartilage morphology to serve as a scalable endpoint in clinical trials, analyses should be performed automatically without human interaction. To clinically validate artificial intelligence (AI)‐based analysis, we studied cartilage loss from MRI prior to knee replacement.

Engineering gene-activated bioprinted scaffolds for enhancing articular cartilage repair

Materials Today Bio
Untreated articular cartilage injuries often result in severe chronic pain and dyskinesia. Current repair strategies have limitations in effectively promoting articular cartilage repair, underscoring the need for innovative therapeutic approaches. A gene-

Effects of low tangential permeability in the superficial layer on the frictional property of articular cartilage

Biosurface and Biotribology, 2015
The biphasic characteristics of articular cartilage are known to play important roles in cartilage lubrication. However, it is still difficult to biotribologically explain the extremely low friction coefficient observed in articular cartilage.

O-alg-THAM/gel hydrogels functionalized with engineered microspheres based on mesenchymal stem cell secretion recruit endogenous stem cells for cartilage repair

Bioactive Materials, 2023
Lacking self-repair abilities, injuries to articular cartilage can lead to cartilage degeneration and ultimately result in osteoarthritis. Tissue engineering based on functional bioactive scaffolds are emerging as promising approaches for articular ...
