Perichondrial expression of Wdr5 regulates chondrocyte proliferation and differentiation

open access: yesDevelopmental Biology, 2009
Wdr5 is developmentally expressed in osteoblasts and is required for osteoblast differentiation. Mice overexpressing Wdr5 under the control of the mouse alpha(1)I collagen promoter (Col I-Wdr5) display accelerated osteoblast differentiation as well as accelerated chondrocyte differentiation, suggesting that overexpression of Wdr5 in osteoblasts affects

3D (Bio) Printing Combined Fiber Fabrication Methods for Tissue Engineering Applications: Possibilities and Limitations

open access: yesAdvanced Functional Materials, EarlyView.
Biofabrication aims at providing innovative technologies and tools for the fabrication of tissue‐like constructs for tissue engineering and regenerative medicine applications. By integrating multiple biofabrication technologies, such as 3D (bio) printing with fiber fabrication methods, it would be more realistic to reconstruct native tissue's ...

Integrin‐linked kinase regulates chondrocyte shape and proliferation [PDF]

open access: yesEMBO reports, 2003
The interaction of chondrocytes with the extracellular‐matrix environment is mediated mainly by integrins. Ligated integrins are recruited to focal adhesions (FAs) together with scaffolding proteins and kinases, such as integrin‐linked kinase (Ilk). Ilk binds the cytoplasmic domain of β1‐, β2‐ and β3‐integrins and recruits adaptors and kinases, and is ...

Distinct metabolic programs induced by TGF-β1 and BMP2 in human articular chondrocytes with osteoarthritis [PDF]

open access: yes, 2018
Objectives: Cellular energy metabolism is important for the function of all tissues, including cartilage. Recent studies indicate that superficial and deep subpopulations of articular chondrocytes (ACs) have distinct metabolic profiles.

A Visible Light‐Responsive Hydrogel to Study the Effect of Dynamic Tissue Stiffness on Cellular Mechanosensing

open access: yesAdvanced Functional Materials, EarlyView.
A visible light‐responsive polyacrylamide‐azobenzene hydrogel enables safe, reversible stiffness control for studying cell mechanobiology without harmful UV exposure. This approach reveals stem cells respond rapidly to mechanical changes, showing altered shape and protein distribution within one hour.

miR-29b inhibits TGF-β1-induced cell proliferation in articular chondrocytes

open access: yesBiochemistry and Biophysics Reports, 2022
Transforming growth factor β1 (TGF-β1) is a known regulator of chondrocyte proliferation and promotes cartilage repair in osteoarthritis (OA). microRNA-29b-3p (miR-29b-3p) is downregulated by TGF-β1 and overexpressed in OA cartilage. However, the ability
