A Canine Musculoskeletal Robot for Investigating Biomechanical Functions During Locomotion

Advanced Robotics Research, EarlyView.
In this study, a dog limb musculoskeletal robot was developed using thin McKibben artificial muscles to investigate the effects of the dog's musculoskeletal structure on walking. Walking experiments were conducted in both indoor and outdoor environments, suggesting that the flexible structure of the dog's shoulders contributes to an increase in stroke ...

Multiomics Analyses Reveal an Essential Role of Tryptophan in Treatment of csDMARDs in Rheumatoid Arthritis

Advanced Science, EarlyView.
Rheumatoid arthritis is a disease characterized by joint inflammation. Approximately 50% of patients show insufficient response to traditional synthetic disease‐modifying antirheumatic drugs. This study aims to elucidate differential molecular profiles of the mechanisms underlying drug responses through multi‐omics strategy.

Mesenchymal Stem Cells for Treating Articular Cartilage Defects and Osteoarthritis

Cell Transplantation, 2015
Articular cartilage damage and osteoarthritis are the most common joint diseases. Joints are prone to damage caused by sports injuries or aging, and such damage regularly progresses to more serious joint disorders, including osteoarthritis, which is a ...

Biocatalytic Nanoregulators Restore Joint Redox‐Immune Homeostasis in Rheumatoid Arthritis

Advanced Science, EarlyView.
Mesenchymal stem cell‐derived extracellular vesicles (EVs) coat ruthenium‐loaded metal‐organic frameworks (Ru@ZrMOF), creating a targeted therapeutic (Ru@ZrMOF/EVs). This platform scavenges ROS, generates oxygen, and polarizes macrophages from M1 to M2, alleviating inflammation, inhibiting pannus, promoting cartilage repair, and downregulating HIF‐1α ...

Inhibition of Hypersialylation in Human Intervertebral Disc Degeneration Modulates Inflammation and Metabolism

Advanced Science, EarlyView.
Glycosylation, specifically hypersialylation, is identified as a critical factor in human intervertebral disc (IVD) degeneration—a major cause of low back pain. This study demonstrates that inhibiting sialylation reduces inflammation and oxidative stress in IVD tissues, suggesting new therapeutic possibilities.

Targeted Inhibition of CD74+ Macrophages by Luteolin via CEBPB/P65 Signaling Ameliorates Osteoarthritis Progression

Advanced Science, EarlyView.
This study identifies CD74⁺ macrophages as key drivers of synovial inflammation in osteoarthritis (OA). The flavonoid luteolin is predicted to inhibit this pathway by blocking Nuclear Factor Kappa‐light‐chain‐enhancer of Activated B cells (NF‐κB) signaling. To enhance delivery, a targeted nanoplatform (MDSPL) is developed.

THE THERAPEUTIC TACTICS OF INTRA-ARTICULAR FRACTURES OF THE ANKLE (LITERATURE REVIEW)

Acta Biomedica Scientifica, 2013
As a result of the analysis of literature it was revealed that in case of pronation-abduction ankle injury takes place injury of the articular surfaces. The hyaline cartilage significantly suffers.

FSTL1 Orchestrates Metabolic‐Epigenetic Crosstalk: Glycolysis‐Dependent H3K18 Lactylation Drives Cartilage Fibrosis in Osteoarthritis

Advanced Science, EarlyView.
FSTL1 promotes glycolysis during chondrocyte fibrosis by triggering the HIF‐1 signaling pathway, which causes lactate to accumulate. The buildup of lactate leads to changes in histone lysine lactylation, which in turn enhances the expression of genes associated with fibrosis.

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

Advanced 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 ...

Hydrogel-Based 3D Bioprinting Technology for Articular Cartilage Regenerative Engineering

Gels
Articular cartilage is an avascular tissue with very limited capacity of self-regeneration. Trauma or injury-related defects, inflammation, or aging in articular cartilage can induce progressive degenerative joint diseases such as osteoarthritis.
