Bilateral mucoid degeneration of the posterior cruciate ligaments

Journal of the Belgian Society of Radiology, 2013
Mucoid (myxoid) degeneration of the anterior cruciate ligament (ACL) is well documented and well known. Mucoid degeneration of the posterior cruciate ligament (PCL) has been reported, but is rare in comparison. The changes may be subtle and may be missed

Structure, Mechanics, and Mechanobiology of Fibrocartilage Pericellular Matrix Mediated by Type V Collagen

Advanced Science, EarlyView.
This study defines the structure, mechanics, and mechanobiology of the fibrocartilage pericellular matrix (PCM) using the murine meniscus, showing how collagen V deficiency alters PCM properties and disrupts cell mechanosensitive signaling. Findings emphasize the critical role of PCM in fibrocartilage mechanobiology and suggest targeting it can enhance

Anatomical and clinical significance of Pterygospinous and Pterygoalar ligaments and bony bars in dentistry

Journal of Oral Research, 2019
The Pterygospinous Ligament (PSL) extends from the Pterygospinous process of the lateral Pterygoid plate to the spine of the sphenoid bone. Sometimes, it may be ossified forming a bar of bone bounding the pterygospinous foramen to which mandibular nerve ...

Piezoelectric Biomaterials for Bone Regeneration: Roadmap from Dipole to Osteogenesis

Advanced Science, EarlyView.
Piezoelectric biomaterials convert mechanical forces into electrical signals, offering novel strategies to restore and modulate bone microenvironments for tissue engineering. This review examines molecular dipole origins, spatial arrangements, and pseudo‐piezoelectric mechanisms and highlights dipole‐engineering techniques for osteogenesis regulation ...

M2 Macrophage‐Derived Extracellular Vesicles Reprogram Immature Neutrophils into Anxa1hi Neutrophils to Enhance Inflamed Bone Regeneration

Advanced Science, EarlyView.
This study reveals that M2‐EVs mitigate periodontitis‐induced bone resorption by modulating neutrophil fate. Single‐cell RNA sequencing identified an Anxa1hi neutrophil subpopulation with pro‐reparative properties. M2‐EVs disrupt neutrophil maturation, promoting this subpopulation through key reprogramming genes (Acvrl1, Fpr2). These findings highlight

Small Extracellular Vesicles Orchestrate Cisplatin‐Induced Ototoxicity: Potential Biomarker and Targets Discovery

Advanced Science, EarlyView.
Cisplatin causes reactive oxygen species accumulation, leading to apoptosis and inflammation in cochlear hair cells. Small extracellular vesicles primarily derived from the damaged hair cells likely contribute to cisplatin‐induced ototoxicity, carrying a variety of microRNAs and proteins.

Strong and Fatigue‐Resistant Hydrogels via Poor Solvent Evaporation Assisted Hot‐Stretching for Tendon Repair

Advanced Science, EarlyView.
An anisotropic hydrogel (AHs) is prepared in this study. The strength of AHs can reach up to 33.14 ± 2.05 MPa, and it exhibits unique defect‐insensitive characteristics. Cracks can only deflect along the fiber alignment direction, demonstrating an interesting self‐protection function.
