ATP‐induced chondrocalcinosis [PDF]

open access: yesArthritis & Rheumatism, 1992
AbstractObjective. To determine whether adult articular cartilage mineralizes in the presence of ATP.Methods. Intact adult porcine articular cartilage and monolayers of chondrocytes were cultured in physiologic media containing ATP, and mineralization was measured as retention of 45Ca. Cartilage was analyzed by electron microscopy.Results.

Comparison of three radiodiagnostic techniques for pyrophosphate arthropathy

open access: yesНаучно-практическая ревматология, 2012
Pyrophosphate arthropathy (PPA) is a disease that arises due to the formation and deposition of calcium pyrophosphate crystals within the articular cartilage and thereby develops into immune inflammation.

A Phage Display-Identified Short Peptide Capable of Hydrolyzing Calcium Pyrophosphate Crystals—The Etiological Factor of Chondrocalcinosis

open access: yesMolecules, 2021
Chondrocalcinosis is a metabolic disease caused by the presence of calcium pyrophosphate dihydrate crystals in the synovial fluid. The goal of our endeavor was to find out whether short peptides could be used as a dissolving factor for such crystals.

Case Report: Cervical chondrocalcinosis as a complication of Gitelman syndrome [version 1; referees: 2 approved]

open access: yesF1000Research, 2016
Gitelman syndrome is an inherited tubulopathy leading to a hypokalaemic metabolic alkalosis with hypomagnesaemia and hypocalciuria. Most cases are due to mutations in SLC12A3, encoding the apical thiazide sensitive co-transporter in the distal convoluted
