The intra-articular injection of RANKL-binding peptides inhibits cartilage degeneration in a murine model of osteoarthritis

open access: yesJournal of Pharmacological Sciences, 2017
We recently found that the receptor activator of NF-κB ligand (RANKL)-binding peptide, OP3-4 stimulated the differentiation of both chondrocytes and osteoblasts. OP3-4 is also shown to inhibit cartilage degeneration.

Serum and synovial fluid lipidomic profiles predict obesity-associated osteoarthritis, synovitis, and wound repair [PDF]

open access: yes, 2017
High-fat diet-induced obesity is a major risk factor for osteoarthritis (OA) and diminished wound healing. The objective of this study was to determine the associations among serum and synovial fluid lipid levels with OA, synovitis, adipokine levels, and

Degeneration of Acetabular Articular Cartilage to Bipolar Hemiarthroplasty

open access: yesYonsei Medical Journal, 2008
This study examined the rate of degeneration of acetabular cartilage by the bipolar head according to time, and also which clinical factors are related to the degeneration of acetabular cartilage.Among 192 patients (226 hip joints) who received bipolar hemiarthroplasty from August 1996 to August 2002, 61 patients (65 hip joints) were enrolled in this ...

Genetically inspired organoids prevent joint degeneration and alleviate chondrocyte senescence via Col11a1–HIF1α‐mediated glycolysis–OXPHOS metabolism shift

open access: yesClinical and Translational Medicine
Introduction Developmental dysplasia of hip (DDH) is a hip joint disorder leading to subsequent osteoarthritis. Previous studies suggested collagen XI alpha 1 (COL11A1) as a potential gene in hip dysplasia and chondrocyte degeneration.
