Joint hemorrhage accelerates cartilage degeneration in a rat immobilized knee model
Background Joint hemorrhage is caused by trauma, ligament reconstruction surgery, and bleeding disorders such as hemophilia. Recurrence of hemorrhage in the joint space induces hemosiderotic synovitis and oxidative stress, resulting in both articular ...

Fibrin deposition associates with cartilage degeneration in arthritis
Cartilage damage in inflammatory arthritis is attributed to inflammatory cytokines and pannus infiltration. Activation of the coagulation system is a well known feature of arthritis, especially in rheumatoid arthritis (RA). Here we describe mechanisms by which fibrin directly mediates cartilage degeneration.Fibrin deposits were stained on cartilage and

The role of proteases in pathologies of the synovial joint [PDF]
Synovial (diarthrodial) joints are employed within the body to provide skeletal mobility and have a characteristic structure adapted to provide a smooth almost frictionless surface for articulation.

Induction of WNT16 via peptide-mRNA nanoparticle-based delivery maintains cartilage homeostasis [PDF]
Osteoarthritis (OA) is a progressive joint disease that causes significant disability and pain and for which there are limited treatment options. We posit that delivery of anabolic factors that protect and maintain cartilage homeostasis will halt or ...
