Fibroblast growth factor signaling in skeletal development and disease [PDF]
Fibroblast growth factor (FGF) signaling pathways are essential regulators of vertebrate skeletal development. FGF signaling regulates development of the limb bud and formation of the mesenchymal condensation and has key roles in regulating ...

Abstract Purpose To compare short‐term patient‐reported outcomes (PROMs) and revision rates between autologous hand‐minced cartilage implantation (MCI) and autologous chondrocyte implantation (ACI) for knee cartilage lesions. Methods All patients undergoing MCI or ACI at a single centre were retrospectively analysed from a prospectively maintained ...

Advancing Extracellular Vesicle Research: A Review of Systems Biology and Multiomics Perspectives
ABSTRACT Extracellular vesicles (EVs) are membrane‐bound vesicles secreted by various cell types into the extracellular space and play a role in intercellular communication. Their molecular cargo varies depending on the cell of origin and its functional state.

Chondrogenic Potential of Subpopulations of Cells Expressing Mesenchymal Stem Cell Markers Derived from Human Synovial Membranes [PDF]
[Abstract] In this study we analyzed the chondrogenic potential of subpopulations of mesenchymal stem cells (MSCs) derived from human synovial membranes enriched for CD73, CD106, and CD271 markers.

Regulation of chondrocyte hypertrophy in an osteochondral interface mimicking gel matrix
Calcified cartilage extracellular matrix (ECM) is a critical interface at the osteochondral junction which plays an important role in maintaining the structural continuity between articular cartilage and subchondral bone. This mineralized network is primarily composed of glycosaminoglycans (GAGs) and collagen type II (col II) and hosts hypertrophic ...

Non‐canonical PKG1 regulation in cardiovascular health and disease
It is well established that the cyclic GMP‐dependent protein kinase I (PKG1) is canonically activated by cyclic guanosine monophosphate (cGMP), enabling its regulation of vascular tone, cardiac function and smooth muscle homeostasis. However, diverse non‐canonical stimuli of PKG1 have also been identified.

Genome-wide microRNA and gene analysis of mesenchymal stem cell chondrogenesis identifies an essential role and multiple targets for miR-140-5p [PDF]
microRNAs (miRNAs) are abundantly expressed in development where they are critical determinants of cell differentiation and phenotype. Accordingly miRNAs are essential for normal skeletal development and chondrogenesis in particular.

A guide to the types, structures, and multifaceted functions of matrix metalloproteinases in cancer
Matrix metalloproteinases (MMPs) orchestrate cancer progression and metastasis through proteolytic and non‐proteolytic actions. By remodeling the tumor microenvironment, enhancing growth factor availability, and modulating cell behavior, MMPs promote proliferation, migration or invasion, and epithelial‐to‐mesenchymal transition. Alongside extracellular

FasL Expression in Articular Discs of Human Temporomandibular Joint and Association with Osteoarthrosis [PDF]
Background Apoptosis is a programme of cell death which does not induce an inflammatory response. Recent previous research has suggested a correlation between temporomandibular internal derangement and apoptosis.
