Temporomandibular joint arthritis increases canonical Wnt pathway expression in the articular cartilage and trigeminal ganglion in rats

open access: yesBone Reports, 2023
The canonical Wnt pathway participates in inflammatory diseases and it is involved in neuropathic pain. This study evaluated the immunoexpression of the canonical Wnt signaling pathway in the articular cartilage of the temporomandibular joint (TMJ) and ...

Gene therapy for articular cartilage repair [PDF]

open access: yes, 2007
Articular cartilage serves as the gliding surface of joints. It is susceptible to damage from trauma and from degenerative diseases. Restoration of damaged articular cartilage may be achievable through the use of cell-regulatory molecules that augment ...

Fresh Osteochondral Allograft Transplantation for Treatment of Articular Cartilage Defects of the Knee

open access: yesArthroscopy Techniques, 2016
Articular cartilage damage of the knee can cause severe morbidity. Owing to its avascular nature, articular cartilage has limited potential for self-healing and increased propensity to progress to osteoarthritis.

Osteopontin level in synovial fluid is associated with the severity of joint pain and cartilage degradation after anterior cruciate ligament rupture. [PDF]

open access: yesPLoS ONE, 2012
To explore the molecular function of Osteopontin (OPN) in the pathogenesis of human OA, we compared the expression levels of OPN in synovial fluid with clinical parameters such as arthroscopic observation of cartilage damage and joint pain after joint ...
