Direct Visualisation of the Depth-Dependent Mechanical Properties of Full-Thickness Articular Cartilage. [PDF]
, 2012 The structural anisotropy of articular cartilage controls its deformation response. As proteoglycans and collagen vary with depth, simple uniaxial compression results in inhomogeneous deformation with distinct depth-dependent mechanical properties ...

A review of the differences between normal and osteoarthritis articular cartilage in human knee and ankle joints [PDF]
, 2009 Background: Osteoarthritis (OA) is the most common joint disease yet its pathophysiology is still poorly understood. It is more prevalent in some lower limb joints than others; in particular the knee is more commonly affected than the ankle.

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

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 ...

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

A novel method of articular cartilage repair. [PDF]
, 2007 Articular cartilage repair of post-traumatic articular cartilage defects and well-defined articular cartilage pathology is challenging in clinical practice and has been the focus of investigations for many years.
