High efficiency transfection of embryonic limb mesenchyme with plasmid DNA using square wave pulse electroporation and sucrose buffer

open access: yesBioTechniques, 2014
Micromass cultures of primary embryonic limb mesenchyme are a valuable model system for studying cartilage formation in vitro. However, high efficiency introduction of plasmid DNA into this hard-to-transfect cell type typically results in considerable ...

How to salvage the delivery of a wrong-sided meniscal allograft: A rare case series

open access: yesJournal of Cartilage & Joint Preservation, 2021
Introduction: Although rare, tissue processing errors have occurred during meniscal transplantation. The anatomic differences between the lateral and medial menisci makes this problematic for surgeons who find themselves with an incorrectly labeled graft.

Cartilage Grafting

open access: yesSeminars in Plastic Surgery, 2019
AbstractArthritis remains a widespread and yet unsolved therapeutic dilemma. Cartilage grafting has proven to be difficult and satisfactory results are often elusive. There are several inherent difficulties. These include both chondrocyte migration and the lack of sufficient uptake of nutrients to allow for graft survival.

Copper-Containing Alloy as Immunoregulatory Material in Bone Regeneration via Mitochondrial Oxidative Stress

open access: yesFrontiers in Bioengineering and Biotechnology, 2021
In the mammalian skeletal system, osteogenesis and angiogenesis are closely linked by type H vessels during bone regeneration and repair. Our previous studies confirmed the promotion of these processes by copper-containing metal (CCM) in vitro and in ...

Use of autologous adipose-derived mesenchymal stem cells for creation of laryngeal cartilage [PDF]

open access: yes, 2017
OBJECTIVES/HYPOTHESIS: Adipose-derived mesenchymal stem cells (ASCs) are an exciting potential cell source for tissue engineering because cells can be derived from the simple excision of autologous fat.

Vitamin D Receptor Genetic Polymorphisms Associate With a Decreased Susceptibility to Extremity Osteomyelitis Partly by Inhibiting Macrophage Apoptosis Through Inhibition of Excessive ROS Production via VDR-Bmi1 Signaling

open access: yesFrontiers in Physiology, 2022
Background: Previous studies had reported that vitamin D receptor (VDR) gene polymorphisms were related to the development of several inflammatory disorders. However, potential links between such variations and the risk of developing a bone infection and
