Research progress of self-assembling peptide hydrogels in repairing cartilage defects

open access: yesFrontiers in Materials, 2022
Due to the lack of blood vessels, nerves and lymphatic vessels, the capacity of articular cartilage to heal is extremely limited. Once damaged, it is urgent for articular cartilage to repair the injury.

The Basic Science of Articular Cartilage

open access: yesSports health, 2009
Articular cartilage is the highly specialized connective tissue of diarthrodial joints. Its principal function is to provide a smooth, lubricated surface for articulation and to facilitate the transmission of loads with a low frictional coefficient ...

Effects of low tangential permeability in the superficial layer on the frictional property of articular cartilage

open access: yesBiosurface and Biotribology, 2015
The biphasic characteristics of articular cartilage are known to play important roles in cartilage lubrication. However, it is still difficult to biotribologically explain the extremely low friction coefficient observed in articular cartilage.

Effect of alendronate on post-traumatic osteoarthritis induced by anterior cruciate ligament rupture in mice. [PDF]

open access: yes, 2015
IntroductionPrevious studies in animal models of osteoarthritis suggest that alendronate (ALN) has antiresorptive and chondroprotective effects, and can reduce osteophyte formation.

Gene expression profiling reveals similarities between the spatial architectures of postnatal articular and growth plate cartilage. [PDF]

open access: yesPLoS ONE, 2014
Articular and growth plate cartilage are discrete tissues but arise from a common cartilaginous condensation and have comparable spatial architectures consisting of distinct layers of chondrocytes.

Computational Models of Articular Cartilage [PDF]

open access: yesComputational 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 ...
