Longitudinal measurement of serum cartilage oligomeric matrix protein can detect the progression of cartilage degeneration in anterior cruciate ligament reconstruction patients

open access: yesAsia-Pacific Journal of Sports Medicine, Arthroscopy, Rehabilitation and Technology
Background/objective: Cartilage oligomeric matrix protein (COMP) has utility as a diagnostic marker for osteoarthritis (OA). Our previous study revealed that the serum COMP level can be used to detect early cartilage change in non-OA patients with ...

Classification of patients with knee osteoarthritis in clinical phenotypes: data from the osteoarthritis initiative [PDF]

open access: yes, 2018
ObjectivesThe existence of phenotypes has been hypothesized to explain the large heterogeneity characterizing the knee osteoarthritis. In a previous systematic review of the literature, six main phenotypes were identified: Minimal Joint Disease (MJD ...

Wnt signaling in cartilage development and degeneration

open access: yesBMB Reports, 2008
The Wnt signaling network, which is composed of Wnt ligands, receptors, antagonists, and intracellular signaling molecules, has emerged as a powerful regulator of cell fate, proliferation, and function in multicellular organisms. Over the past two decades, the critical role of Wnt signaling in embryonic cartilage and bone development has been well ...

Lipid Metabolism in Cartilage Development, Degeneration, and Regeneration

open access: yesNutrients, 2022
Lipids affect cartilage growth, injury, and regeneration in diverse ways. Diet and metabolism have become increasingly important as the prevalence of obesity has risen. Proper lipid supplementation in the diet contributes to the preservation of cartilage function, whereas excessive lipid buildup is detrimental to cartilage. Lipid metabolic pathways can

Articular cartilage corefucosylation regulates tissue resilience in osteoarthritis

open access: yeseLife
This study aimed to investigate the glycan structural changes that occur before histological degeneration in osteoarthritis (OA) and to determine the mechanism by which these glycan conformational changes affect cartilage degeneration.

An in silico Framework of Cartilage Degeneration That Integrates Fibril Reorientation and Degradation Along With Altered Hydration and Fixed Charge Density Loss

open access: yesFrontiers in Bioengineering and Biotechnology, 2021
Injurious mechanical loading of articular cartilage and associated lesions compromise the mechanical and structural integrity of joints and contribute to the onset and progression of cartilage degeneration leading to osteoarthritis (OA).
