The chondro-osseous continuum: is it possible to unlock the potential assigned within? [PDF]

open access: yes, 2018
Endochondral ossification (EO), by which long bones of the axial skeleton form, is a tightly regulated process involving chondrocyte maturation with successive stages of proliferation, maturation, and hypertrophy, accompanied by cartilage matrix ...

Collagen type II suppresses articular chondrocyte hypertrophy and osteoarthritis progression by promoting integrin β1−SMAD1 interaction

open access: yesBone Research, 2019
Hypertrophic differentiation is not only the terminal process of endochondral ossification in the growth plate but is also an important pathological change in osteoarthritic cartilage.

Detecting new microRNAs in human osteoarthritic chondrocytes identifies miR-3085 as a human, chondrocyte-selective, microRNA [PDF]

open access: yes, 2015
Objective: To use deep sequencing to identify novel microRNAs in human osteoarthritic cartilage which have a functional role in chondrocyte phenotype or function.

Iron regulates chondrocyte phenotype in haemophilic cartilage through the PTEN/PI3 K/AKT/FOXO1 pathway

open access: yesHematology, 2023
Objective Our previous study demonstrated that iron overload could lead to haemophilic cartilage destruction by changing chondrocyte phenotype. This change was caused by iron’s effect on chondrocyte expression of FGF23 and SOX9, in addition to iron ...

Chondrocyte Apoptosis in the Pathogenesis of Osteoarthritis

open access: yesInternational Journal of Molecular Sciences, 2015
Apoptosis is a highly-regulated, active process of cell death involved in development, homeostasis and aging. Dysregulation of apoptosis leads to pathological states, such as cancer, developmental anomalies and degenerative diseases. Osteoarthritis (OA),

An injectable, self-healing and MMP-inhibiting hyaluronic acid gel via iron coordination [PDF]

open access: yes, 2021
Regulating the activity of matrix metalloproteinases (MMPs) is a potential strategy for osteoarthritis (OA) therapy, although delivering this effect in a spatially and temporally localised fashion remains a challenge. Here, we report an injectable and self-healing hydrogel enabling factor-free MMP regulation and biomechanical competence in situ.

The Incidence and Clinical Relevance of Graft Hypertrophy After Matrix-Based Autologous Chondrocyte Implantation [PDF]

open access: yes, 2012
Background: Graft hypertrophy is the most common complication of periosteal autologous chondrocyte implantation (p-ACI). Purpose: The aim of this prospective study was to analyze the development, the incidence rate, and the persistence of graft ...

The Role of Chondrocyte Morphology and Volume in Controlling Phenotype—Implications for Osteoarthritis, Cartilage Repair, and Cartilage Engineering

open access: yesCurrent Rheumatology Reports, 2019
Purpose of ReviewArticular chondrocytes are exclusively responsible for the turnover of the extracellular matrix (ECM) of hyaline cartilage. However, chondrocytes are phenotypically unstable and, if they de-differentiate into hypertrophic or fibroblastic

Chondrocyte De-Differentiation: Biophysical Cues to Nuclear Alterations

open access: yesCells, 2022
Autologous chondrocyte implantation (ACI) is a cell therapy to repair cartilage defects. In ACI a biopsy is taken from a non-load bearing area of the knee and expanded in-vitro.
