Consequences of chondrocyte hypertrophy on osteoarthritic cartilage: potential effect on angiogenesis. [PDF]
peer reviewedOBJECTIVE: The aim of this study was to investigate the link between the hypertrophic phenotype of chondrocytes and angiogenesis in osteoarthritis (OA) and more particularly to demonstrate that OA hypertrophic chondrocytes potentially ...

Osteoarthritis as an evolutionary legacy: Biological ageing and chondrocyte hypertrophy. [PDF]
Osteoarthritis (OA) is a progressive joint disease habitually linked to ageing, characterized by the gradual breakdown of cartilage leading to pain and reduced mobility. Historically viewed as mainly a "wear and tear" condition, new insights suggest that OA may be part of an evolutionary, age-related biological process rather than mainly driven by ...

In Vitro Study of Licorice on IL-1β-Induced Chondrocytes and In Silico Approach for Osteoarthritis
Osteoarthritis (OA) is a common degenerative joint disorder that affects joint function, mobility, and pain. The release of proinflammatory cytokines stimulates matrix metalloproteinases (MMPs) and aggrecanase production which further induces articular ...

Regulating the Regulators of Chondrocyte Hypertrophy [PDF]
THE DEVELOPMENT, growth, and maintenance of a functional skeleton relies on the existence of several different types of chondrocytes with markedly different fates. The articular chondrocytes on the surface of joints are expected to persist throughout life, producing extracellular matrix components which provide a cushion to distribute load on bone at ...

WISP3 - IGF1 interaction regulates chondrocyte hypertrophy [PDF]
WISP3 (Wnt Induced Secreted Protein 3) is a multi-domain protein of mesenchymal origin. Mutations in several domains of WISP3 cause PPRD (Progressive Pseudo Rheumatoid Dysplasia), which is associated with cartilage loss and restricted skeletal development.

Thyroxine downregulates Sox9 and promotes chondrocyte hypertrophy [PDF]
Thyroid hormones exert a profound effect on development, growth, and metabolism of skeleton. In the present study, we evaluated the effects of thyroxine (T4) and growth hormone (GH) on the terminal differentiation of rib growth plate chondrocytes in three-dimensional pellet culture.

Effects of Concanavalin A on Chondrocyte Hypertrophy and Matrix Calcification [PDF]
Resting chondrocytes do not usually undergo differentiation to the hypertrophic stage and calcification. However, incubating these cells with concanavalin A resulted in 10-100-fold increases in alkaline phosphatase activity, binding of 1,25(OH)2-vitamin D3, type X collagen synthesis, 45Ca incorporation into insoluble material, and calcium content.

Tyrosine kinases regulate chondrocyte hypertrophy: promising drug targets for Osteoarthritis [PDF]
Osteoarthritis (OA) is a major health problem worldwide that affects the joints and causes severe disability. It is characterized by pain and low-grade inflammation. However, the exact pathogenesis remains unknown and the therapeutic options are limited.

Regulation of α5 and αV Integrin Expression by GDF-5 and BMP-7 in Chondrocyte Differentiation and Osteoarthritis. [PDF]
The Integrin β1 family is the major receptors of the Extracellular matrix (ECM), and the synthesis and degradation balance of ECM is seriously disrupted during Osteoarthritis (OA).
