Dynamic Regulation of Granular Hydrogels Through Guest‐Host Interactions to Spatiotemporally Guide Cellular Migration

open access: yesAdvanced Science, EarlyView.
A dynamic granular system composed of microgels crosslinked through guest‐host interactions is developed to reversibly alter its stiffness and microporosity in response to chemical stimuli, enabling temporal regulation of cell migration. Suspension bioprinting using this dynamic hydrogel allows for 4D spatiotemporal control over tissue formation ...

Synovial Fluid‐derived Micrococcus Luteus G18 Exacerbates Osteoarthritis Progression by Promoting Chondrocyte Degradation via TLR2/JNK/AP‐1 Signaling Pathway

open access: yesAdvanced Science, EarlyView.
Traditionally considered sterile, the articular cavity is now recognized to harbor microbial communities influencing osteoarthritis (OA). Integrating 16S rRNA sequencing and culturomics, Micrococcus luteus is enriched in advanced OA. Notably, M. luteus G18 exacerbates cartilage degeneration via TLR2/JNK/AP‐1‐mediated ECM disruption, revealing intra ...

Nanozyme‐Integrated Hydrogel Targeting AGEs for Diabetic Osteoarthritis Therapy

open access: yesAdvanced Science, EarlyView.
A nanozyme–integrated hydrogel (PTC‐MP) exhibiting with mild photothermal effects is constructed, and a “3R” (restrain‐restore‐reinforce) strategy is proposed for diabetic osteoarthritis (DOA) treatment based on advanced glycation end products (AGEs) targeting.

Lubrication at physiological pressures by polyzwitterionic brushes [PDF]

open access: yes, 2009
The very low sliding friction at natural synovial joints, which have friction coefficients of mu < 0.002 at pressures up to 5 megapascals or more, has to date not been attained in any human-made joints or between model surfaces in aqueous environments ...

Osteoclast‐Derived SLIT3 Mediates Osteoarthritis Pain and Degenerative Changes

open access: yesAdvanced Science, EarlyView.
In TMJ‐OA, osteoclasts play a significant role in promoting the growth of sensory nerves at the osteochondral interface. In early OA, TRAP+ osteoclast‐derived SLIT3 induces sensory nerve growth into the condylar cartilage. This nerve growth facilitates the development of pain associated with OA.
