Autoreactivity Versus Autoimmunity: Characteristics of Autoantigen‐Specific CD4 T Cells in Rheumatoid Arthritis and Health

Arthritis &Rheumatology, EarlyView.
Objective CD4 T cells specific for citrullinated (cit) peptides are key players in rheumatoid arthritis (RA) immunopathogenesis. Characterizing these cells and identifying features of healthy and RA‐associated autoreactivity will provide valuable insight into disease mechanisms and form the basis of immune state biomarkers to facilitate the next ...

The feasibility of human embryonic stem cell (hESC)-derived cartilage for tracheoplasty

Regenerative Therapy
Introduction: Airway reconstruction with autologous costal cartilage often results in long-term complications. On the other hand, implant-type regenerated cartilage using chondrocytes and scaffolds is associated with better biocompatibility and outcomes.

Comparison of Structure and Viability of Block Cartilage Grafts With Ultrafine Diced Cartilage Grafts in Rabbits

Plastic and Reconstructive Surgery - Global Open
Background: Autologous block cartilage grafts are traditional and commonly used but have an incidence of warping of 39%. Autologous diced cartilage does not warp or require a long learning curve and can be made from a combination of cartilage sources.

Arthroscopic Fixation of Unstable Adolescent Knee Osteochondritis Dissecans With Structural Tibial Cancellous Bone Autograft

Arthroscopy Techniques, EarlyView.
Abstract The treatment of knee osteochondritis dissecans in young patients remains challenging. Unstable or displaced lesions and those unresponsive to conservative management require surgical treatment. Because the articular surface morphology is complex and patient‐specific, preservation and fixation of the native osteochondritis dissecans fragment ...
