Atomic Force Microscopy Micro-Indentation Methods for Determining the Elastic Modulus of Murine Articular Cartilage

open access: yesSensors, 2023
The mechanical properties of biological tissues influence their function and can predict degenerative conditions before gross histological or physiological changes are detectable. This is especially true for structural tissues such as articular cartilage,

Clinical Application Status of Articular Cartilage Regeneration Techniques: Tissue-Engineered Cartilage Brings New Hope

open access: yesStem Cells International, 2020
Hyaline articular cartilage lacks blood vessels, lymphatics, and nerves and is characterised by limited self-repair ability following injury. Traditional techniques of articular cartilage repair and regeneration all have certain limitations.

Influence of collagen fibre orientation on the frictional properties of articular cartilage

open access: yesBiosurface and Biotribology, 2021
Articular cartilage has a unique collagen fibre network structure that exhibits both anisotropy and depth dependency. Collagen fibre orientation in a cross‐section parallel to the articular cartilage surface may affect the lubrication properties of ...

The synovial microenvironment suppresses chondrocyte hypertrophy and promotes articular chondrocyte differentiation

open access: yesnpj Regenerative Medicine, 2022
During the development of the appendicular skeleton, the cartilaginous templates undergo hypertrophic differentiation and remodels into bone, except for the cartilage most adjacent to joint cavities where hypertrophic differentiation and endochondral ...

Electrically Conductive Hydrogels for Articular Cartilage Tissue Engineering

open access: yesGels, 2022
Articular cartilage is a highly specialized tissue found in diarthrodial joints, which is crucial for healthy articular motion. Despite its importance, articular cartilage has limited regenerative capacities, and the degeneration of this tissue is a ...

Use of mesenchymal stem cells seeded on the scaffold in articular cartilage repair

open access: yesInflammation and Regeneration, 2018
Articular cartilage has poor capacity for repair. Once damaged, they degenerate, causing functional impairment of joints. Allogeneic cartilage transplantation has been performed for functional recovery of articular cartilage.

The influences of walking, running and stair activity on knee articular cartilage: Quantitative MRI using T1 rho and T2 mapping. [PDF]

open access: yesPLoS ONE, 2017
To explore the different influences of walking, running and stair activity on knee articular cartilage with T1 rho and T2 mapping sequences.MRI (3.0-T) scans of the right knee were performed in twenty-three young healthy adults immediately after 30 ...

Study of the collagen structure in the superficial zone and physiological state of articular cartilage using a 3D confocal imaging technique

open access: yesJournal of Orthopaedic Surgery and Research, 2008
Introduction The collagen structure in the superficial zone of articular cartilage is critical to the tissue's durability. Early osteoarthritis is often characterized with fissures on the articular surface.

Repair of full-thickness articular cartilage defects using IEIK13 self-assembling peptide hydrogel in a non-human primate model

open access: yesScientific Reports, 2021
Articular cartilage is built by chondrocytes which become less active with age. This declining function of the chondrocytes, together with the avascular nature of the cartilage, impedes the spontaneous healing of chondral injuries.

Study on the damage mechanism of articular cartilage based on the fluid–solid coupled particle model

open access: yesAdvances in Mechanical Engineering, 2015
Articular cartilage damage is the primary cause of osteoarthritis. Very little literature work focuses on the microstructural damage mechanism of articular cartilage.
