Treatment of failed articular cartilage reconstructive procedures of the knee: A systematic review [PDF]

, 2018
Background: Symptomatic articular cartilage lesions of the knee are common and are being treated surgically with increasing frequency. While many studies have reported outcomes following a variety of cartilage restoration procedures, few have ...

Arthroscopic Treatment of Cartilage Lesions With Microfracture and BST-CarGel

Arthroscopy Techniques, 2014
Bone marrow stimulation techniques for the treatment of articular cartilage defects such as microfracture so far have solely reproduced mechanically inferior fibrous cartilage tissue, which might result in unsatisfactory clinical results at midterm ...

Osteoarthritis severely decreases the elasticity and hardness of knee joint cartilage: A nanoindentation study [PDF]

, 2019
The nanoindentation method was applied to determine the elastic modulus and hardness of knee articular cartilage. Cartilage samples from both high weight bearing (HWB) and low weight bearing (LWB) femoral condyles were collected from patients diagnosed ...

Returning to Work After Articular Cartilage Repair Intervention: A Systematic Review

Orthopaedic Journal of Sports Medicine, 2020
Background: The process of returning to work after cartilage treatment has not been studied in depth, even though a better understanding of potential outcomes could lead to significant benefits for the general population.

Repairing a critical cranial defect using WISP1-pretreated chondrocyte scaffolds

Journal of Tissue Engineering, 2023
In cranial flat bone fractures, spontaneous bone repair will occur only when the fracture ends are in close contact. However, in cases wherein bone discontinuity is extensive, surgical interventions are often required.

The effect of intervertebral cartilage on neutral posture and range of motion in the necks of sauropod dinosaurs [PDF]

, 2013
The necks of sauropod dinosaurs were a key factor in their evolution. The habitual posture and range of motion of these necks has been controversial, and computer-aided studies have argued for an obligatory sub-horizontal pose.

Hypoxia regulates RhoA and Wnt/β-catenin signaling in a context-dependent way to control re-differentiation of chondrocytes

Scientific Reports, 2017
Cartilage tissue is avascular and hypoxic which regulates chondrocyte phenotype via stabilization of HIFs. Here, we investigated the role of hypoxia and HIFs in regulation of Rho and canonical Wnt signaling in chondrocytes.

Development of a peptide-siRNA nanocomplex targeting NF- κB for efficient cartilage delivery [PDF]

, 2019
Delivery of therapeutic small interfering RNAs (siRNAs) in an effective dose to articular cartilage is very challenging as the cartilage dense extracellular matrix renders the chondrocytes inaccessible, even to intra-articular injections. Herein, we used

Cartilage Restoration Using Dehydrated Allogeneic Cartilage, Platelet-Rich Plasma, and Autologous Cartilage Mixture Sealed With Activated Autologous Serum

Arthroscopy Techniques, 2020
Articular cartilage injury is a common source of knee pain and dysfunction. Patients in whom conservative treatment fails may benefit from surgical intervention to restore function and alleviate pain.
