Intervertebral Disc Proteoglycans: Multifunctional Tissue Stabilizing and Instructional Cell Regulatory Proteins That Control Tissue Homeostasis

JOR SPINE, Volume 8, Issue 4, December 2025.
Matrix and cell‐associated proteoglycans are important tissue‐stabilizing, weight‐bearing, and tension‐resisting proteins in the intervertebral disc. Their glycosaminoglycan components have growth factor binding and cell‐instructive properties that allow cells to regulate tissue composition and function.

Genome-wide association studies for canine hip dysplasia in single and multiple populations – implications and potential novel risk loci

BMC Genomics, 2021
Background Association mapping studies of quantitative trait loci (QTL) for canine hip dysplasia (CHD) can contribute to the understanding of the genetic background of this common and debilitating disease and might contribute to its genetic improvement ...

Canine hip dysplasia is predictable by genotyping [PDF]

Osteoarthritis and Cartilage, 2011
To establish a predictive method using whole genome genotyping for early intervention in canine hip dysplasia (CHD) risk management, for the prevention of the progression of secondary osteoarthritis (OA), and for selective breeding.Two sets of dogs (six breeds) were genotyped with dense SNPs covering the entire canine genome.

When – and whether – should we spay/neuter companion dogs

Journal of Small Animal Practice, Volume 66, Issue 11, Page 761-766, November 2025.
The recent publication of guidelines for the control of reproduction in dogs and cats shows that a variety of non‐neoplastic and neoplastic conditions occur more commonly in spayed/neutered than entire dogs, and for several of such conditions the earlier the age at surgery – the higher the risk. In addition, unwanted behavioural changes may occur after

Shape and Variability of the Normal Medial Coronoid Process by Computed Tomography in Young Adult Labrador Retrievers

Veterinary Radiology &Ultrasound, Volume 66, Issue 6, November 2025.
ABSTRACT Medial coronoid process disease (MCPD) is the most frequently observed cause of elbow dysplasia, resulting in lameness in young, fast‐growing large‐breed dogs, including Labrador Retrievers (LRs). Computed tomography (CT) is the diagnostic imaging modality of choice for evaluating the medial coronoid process (MCP), as it is noninvasive and ...

A systemic review of existing serological possibilities to diagnose canine osteoarthritis with a particular focus on extracellular matrix proteoglycans and protein [PDF]

, 2017
Extra-cellular matrix (ECM) components are important and their stabilization is significant in maintaining normal healthy joint environment. In osteoarthritis (OA), ECM components are altered and indicate disease progression. The joint ECM is composed

Current Landscape of Short‐T2 Imaging Techniques in the Musculoskeletal System: The Past, Present and Future

Journal of Magnetic Resonance Imaging, Volume 62, Issue 4, Page 969-985, October 2025.
ABSTRACT Conventional MRI is limited in imaging tissues with short T2 relaxation times, such as bone, ligaments, and cartilage, due to their rapid signal decay. This limitation has spurred the development of specialized MRI techniques designed specifically for short‐T2 tissue imaging.
