Articular cartilage mineralization in osteoarthritis of the hip [PDF]

, 2009
Background The aim of this study was to examine the frequency of articular cartilage calcification in patients with end-stage hip OA. Further, its impact on the clinical situation and the OA severity are analyzed.

Does radiofrequency ablation (RFA) epiphysiodesis affect adjacent joint cartilage?

Journal of Children's Orthopaedics, 2016
Purpose To test the hypothesis that epiphysiodesis made with radiofrequency ablation (RFA) is a safe procedure that disrupts the growth plate without damaging the adjacent joint articular cartilage.

Injectable hypoxia-preconditioned cartilage progenitor cells-laden GelMA microspheres system for enhanced osteoarthritis treatment

Materials Today Bio, 2023
Osteoarthritis (OA) is the most common age-related degenerative joint disease mainly characterized by the destruction of articular cartilage. Owing to its native avascular property, intrinsic repair of articular cartilage is very limited.

Recent progress of hydrogel-based biomimetic articular cartilage in mechanical and lubricated enhancement

Friction
Articular cartilage covering a joint surface provides excellent lubrication and a load-bearing interface for the daily activities of the human body, which is characterized by high load-bearing, low friction, and wear resistance.

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

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

Magnetically targeted delivery through cartilage

AIP Advances, 2018
In this study, we have invented a method of delivering drugs deep into articular cartilage with shaped dynamic magnetic fields acting on small metallic magnetic nanoparticles with polyethylene glycol coating and average diameter of 30 nm.

Osteochondrosis lesions of the lateral trochlear ridge of the distal femur in four ponies [PDF]

, 2011
Lesions of the lateral trochlear ridge (LTR) of the distal femur were investigated in four pony or pony cross horses. The animals were all geldings and were six to 15 months of age.

SOST/Sclerostin Improves Posttraumatic Osteoarthritis and Inhibits MMP2/3 Expression After Injury. [PDF]

, 2018
Patients with anterior cruciate ligament (ACL) rupture are two times as likely to develop posttraumatic osteoarthritis (PTOA). Annually, there are ∼900,000 knee injuries in the United States, which account for ∼12% of all osteoarthritis (OA) cases.

Adipose-Derived Stem Cells Cocultured with Chondrocytes Promote the Proliferation of Chondrocytes

Stem Cells International, 2017
Articular cartilage injury and defect caused by trauma and chronic osteoarthritis vascularity are very common, while the repair of injured cartilage remains a great challenge due to its limited healing capacity.
