Decreased levels of insulin-like growth factor-1 and vascular endothelial growth factor relevant to the ossification disturbance in femoral heads spontaneous hypertensive rats. [PDF]

open access: yes, 2006
Ossification disturbance in femoral head reportedly is seen in the Spontaneously Hypertensive rats (SHR) between ages of 10 and 20 weeks. We investigated serum and tissue levels of insulin-like growth factor-1 (IGF-1) and vascular endothelial growth ...

4D Bioprinted Self‐Folding Scaffolds Enhance Cartilage Formation in the Engineering of Trachea

open access: yesAdvanced Materials Technologies, Volume 10, Issue 6, March 18, 2025.
A bilayer self‐folding scaffold, triggerable by humidity, is fabricated via 4D bioprinting for trachea engineering. An analytical model is derived to predict its radius of curvature, enabling its scalability. Cartilage progenitor cells seeded on the scaffold perceive scaffold final curvature and react to it, by enhancing the upregulation of pro ...

A Poroelastic Mixture Model of Mechanobiological Processes in Tissue Engineering. Part I: Mathematical Formulation [PDF]

open access: yesarXiv, 2015
An adequate control of cell response in tissue engineering applications is of utmost importance to obtain products suitable to clinical practice. This paper is the first part of a series of two connected publications in which we study via mathematical tools the cultivation in bioreactors of articular chondrocytes.

Gene Delivery to Chondrocytes

open access: yes, 2023
AbstractDelivering genes to chondrocytes offers new possibilities both clinically, for treating conditions that affect cartilage, and in the laboratory, for studying the biology of chondrocytes. Advances in gene therapy have created a number of different viral and non-viral vectors for this purpose.

Vertical Membrane‐Free Organ‐on‐a‐Chip for High‐Throughput In Vitro Studies and Drug Screening

open access: yesAdvanced Materials Technologies, EarlyView.
This novel microfluidic organ‐on‐a‐chip (OoC) platform enables cost‐effective, high‐throughput in vitro modeling. With vertical compartmentalization and gravity‐driven flow, it eliminates porous membranes and external pumps. Successfully generating intestine, cartilage, and tendon models, this study demonstrates drug responses, including 5‐fluorouracil

A review of the differences between normal and osteoarthritis articular cartilage in human knee and ankle joints [PDF]

open access: yes, 2009
Background: Osteoarthritis (OA) is the most common joint disease yet its pathophysiology is still poorly understood. It is more prevalent in some lower limb joints than others; in particular the knee is more commonly affected than the ankle.

Investigation of high frequency transducers and coded signals suitable for cartilage volume imaging [PDF]

open access: yesarXiv, 2019
Cartilage degeneration in joints causing pain and various types of knee problems is a serious problem-affecting people in all ages. Degenerated articular cartilage is also known as a central hallmark of osteoarthritis, which is a complex musculoskeletal disorder involving numerous contributory genetic, constitutional and biomechanical factors.

Enhancing chondrogenic phenotype for cartilage tissue engineering: monoculture and coculture of articular chondrocytes and mesenchymal stem cells.

open access: yesTissue engineering. Part B, Reviews, 2014
Articular cartilage exhibits an inherently low rate of regeneration. Consequently, damage to articular cartilage often requires surgical intervention.
