Inflammatory Diseases of Cartilage

1991
Inflammatory diseases of cartilage are relatively uncommon but are occasionally encountered by dermatologists. There is often a traumatic component, whether dramatic as in a cauliflower ear or subtle as in chondrodermatitis nodularis helicis. The ears are exposed and very susceptible to cold injury.

Magnetic Resonance Imaging of Articular Cartilage and Evaluation of Cartilage Disease

Investigative Radiology, 2000
Clinical magnetic resonance imaging of articular cartilage is possible by using techniques that offer high contrast between articular cartilage and adjacent structures in reasonable examination times. The fat-suppressed, three-dimensional, spoiled gradient-echo sequence has been reported to be accurate and reliable, and the addition of this sequence to

Role of Epigenomics in Bone and Cartilage Disease

Journal of Bone and Mineral Research, 2019
ABSTRACT   Phenotypic variation in skeletal traits and diseases is the product of genetic and environmental factors. Epigenetic mechanisms include information-containing factors, other than DNA sequence, that cause stable changes in gene expression and are maintained during cell divisions.

Biochemistry of articular cartilage in health and disease

Clinical Biochemistry, 1992
Articular cartilage covers the ends of long bones in synovial joints, providing smooth articulation and cushioning of the underlying bone during joint movement. The tissue can be viewed as a viscoelastic, composite material composed of collagen type II (and smaller amounts of other collagens) entrapping compressed (underhydrated) proteoglycan ...

The pathophysiology of cartilage diseases.

Ortopedia, traumatologia, rehabilitacja, 2012
Treatment of traumatic or degenerative defects of articular cartilage is a well-known problem for surgeons. Temporary or permanent disablement and high cost are due to diseases of the cartilage and bone. The articular cartilage is considered a tissue without the capacity to repair so that the "mechanical wear" of joint tissues is often designated as a ...

Subchondral Bone and Cartilage Disease

Investigative Radiology, 2000
The role of subchondral bone in the pathogenesis of cartilage damage has likely been underestimated. Subchondral bone is not only an important shock absorber, but it may also be important for cartilage metabolism. Contrary to many drawings and published reports, the subchondral region is highly vascularized and vulnerable. Its terminal vessels have, in

Calcification of Auricular Cartilage in Addison's Disease

Archives of Otolaryngology - Head and Neck Surgery, 1960
A review of the literature on calcification of the auricular cartilage discloses that frostbite has, in the past, been believed to be the most common etiologic agent. Thus, Childrey 1 in 1938 reported on 61 cases presented by 21 observers. Other less common causes put forth at this time were (a) syphilis and (b) trauma with resulting perichondritis ...

The role of neuropilin in bone/cartilage diseases

Life Sciences
Bone remodeling is the balance between osteoblasts and osteoclasts. Bone diseases such as osteoporosis and osteoarthritis are associated with imbalanced bone remodeling. Skeletal injury leads to limited motor function and pain. Neurophilin was initially identified in axons, and its various ligands and roles in bone remodeling, angiogenesis, neuropathic

The role of CXCL10 in cartilage development and diseases

Cytokine
CXC motif chemokine ligand 10 (CXCL10), also known as interferon γ-induced protein 10 kDa, is a pleiotropic member of the CXC chemokine family and plays a potent role in cellular functions and pathophysiological processes, which include but are not limited to recruitment of immune cells, induction of cellular apoptosis, regulation of cell growth and ...

Adiponectin Interactions in Bone and Cartilage Biology and Disease

2012
The adipokine adiponectin promotes insulin sensitivity and fat β-oxidation. In addition to its metabolic effects, adiponectin is an important local and systemic modulator of bone remodeling and cartilage biology, involving direct and indirect mechanisms and a large set of downstream molecular signals.
