Chronic tendon pathology: molecular basis and therapeutic implications [PDF]

open access: yes, 2005
Tendons are frequently affected by chronic pain or rupture. Many causative factors have been implicated in the pathology, which until relatively recently was under-researched and poorly understood.

Raman spectroscopic insight into osteoarthritic cartilage regeneration by mRNA therapeutics encoding cartilage-anabolic transcription factor Runx1

open access: yesMaterials Today Bio, 2022
While joint arthroplasty remains nowadays the most popular option available to repair chronically degenerated osteoarthritic joints, possibilities are recently emerging for regeneration of damaged cartilage rather than its replacement with artificial ...

Associations of Sleep and Shift Work With Osteoarthritis Risk

open access: yesArthritis Care &Research, EarlyView.
Objective Daily rhythms may be critical for maintaining homeostasis of joint tissues. We aimed to investigate the relationships among circadian clock disruption, sleep, and osteoarthritis (OA) risk in humans. Methods In the UK Biobank, a prospective 500,000–person cohort, we evaluated associations among sleep duration, sleeplessness/insomnia, and shift

Association of FCGR3A and FCGR3B haplotypes with rheumatoid arthritis and primary Sjögren's syndrome [POSTER PRESENTATION] [PDF]

open access: yes, 2005
Background Rheumatoid arthritis (RA) is an autoimmune disease that is thought to arise from a complex interaction between multiple genetic factors and environmental triggers.

Chondrogenic commitment of human umbilical cord blood and umbilical cord‐derived mesenchymal stem cells induced by the supernatant of chondrocytes: A comparison study

open access: yesAnimal Models and Experimental Medicine
Background Native cartilage has low capacity for regeneration because it has very few progenitor cells. Human umbilical cord blood‐derived mesenchymal stem cells (hUCB‐MSCs) and human umbilical cord‐derived MSCs (hUC‐MSCs) have been employed as promising

Mesenchymal stem cells for cartilage regeneration

open access: yesJournal of Tissue Engineering, 2020
Cartilage injuries are typically caused by trauma, chronic overload, and autoimmune diseases. Owing to the avascular structure and low metabolic activities of chondrocytes, cartilage generally does not self-repair following an injury. Currently, clinical

Does Long‐Term Lower Extremity Strength Training in Adults With Knee Osteoarthritis and Varus Alignment Reduce Knee Joint Loading During Gait?

open access: yesArthritis Care &Research, EarlyView.
Objective We examined whether 18 months of strength training in individuals with knee varus alignment and medial tibiofemoral osteoarthritis (OA) reduced knee joint loads during walking compared to an attention control group. Methods This study was a secondary analysis of a randomized clinical trial that compared the effects of strength training to a ...

Biochemical markers in cartilage injury and repair

open access: yesActa Orthopaedica et Traumatologica Turcica, 2020
Articular cartilage is a highly specialized tissue composed of chondrocytes which regulate the metabolism of extracellular matrix molecules responsible for maintaining cartilage function.

Triangular Index Ratio as An Alternative Method to the Alpha Angle for Defining the Presence of Cam Morphology: A Prospective Cohort Study

open access: yesArthritis Care &Research, Accepted Article.
Objective Cam morphology, a significant risk factor for hip osteoarthritis, is commonly quantified by the alpha angle (AA). This study aims to explore the potential of the triangular index ratio (TIR) to quantify cam morphology on anteroposterior radiographs by assessing the association between TIR‐defined cam morphology and the development of ...

Opportunities for organoids as new models of aging. [PDF]

open access: yes, 2018
The biology of aging is challenging to study, particularly in humans. As a result, model organisms are used to approximate the physiological context of aging in humans. However, the best model organisms remain expensive and time-consuming to use.
