Development of a peptide-siRNA nanocomplex targeting NF- κB for efficient cartilage delivery [PDF]
Delivery of therapeutic small interfering RNAs (siRNAs) in an effective dose to articular cartilage is very challenging as the cartilage dense extracellular matrix renders the chondrocytes inaccessible, even to intra-articular injections. Herein, we used

Intra-articular injections in the treatment of osteoarthritis
Local methods are widely used in the treatment of osteoarthritis (OA) and play a significant role in the complex therapy of this disease. A special place among them belongs to intra-articular (i/a) administration of drugs.

SOST/Sclerostin Improves Posttraumatic Osteoarthritis and Inhibits MMP2/3 Expression After Injury. [PDF]
Patients with anterior cruciate ligament (ACL) rupture are two times as likely to develop posttraumatic osteoarthritis (PTOA). Annually, there are ∼900,000 knee injuries in the United States, which account for ∼12% of all osteoarthritis (OA) cases.

Hypopigmentation after intra-articular corticosteroid injection [PDF]
Intra-articular corticosteroid injection may be associated with several adverse effects.[1][1] Identification of aetiology of hypopigmentation in a child with juvenile idiopathic arthritis is important to guide appropriate therapy.

24R,25-Dihydroxyvitamin D3 Protects against Articular Cartilage Damage following Anterior Cruciate Ligament Transection in Male Rats [PDF]
Osteoarthritis (OA) in humans is associated with low circulating 25-hydroxyvitamin D3 [25 (OH)D3]. In vitamin D replete rats, radiolabeled 24R,25-dihydroxyvitamin D3 [24R,25 (OH)2D3] accumulates in articular cartilage following injection of [3 H]-25(OH ...
