Advanced Science, EarlyView.Cartilage injury promotes local fibrinogen deposition, which accelerates monosodium urate crystallization and activates integrin‐mediated matrix‐degradation. This self‐amplifying cycle drives gout‐related cartilage erosion. Disrupting fibrinogen deposition or restoring the cartilage barrier could interrupt this vicious cycle.

Biomechanical comparison of menisci from different species and artificial constructs [PDF]
, 2013 Background: Loss of meniscal tissue is correlated with early osteoarthritis but few data exist regarding detailed biomechanical properties (e. g. viscoelastic behavior) of menisci in different species commonly used as animal models.

Regional and zonal histo-morphological characteristics of the lapine menisci
, 2010 The menisci have crucial weight-bearing roles in the knee. Regional variations in structure and cellularity of the meniscus have only been minimally investigated. Therefore, the goal of this study was to illustrate the regional cell density, tissue area,

Upper and lower tear menisci on contact lenses
, 2009 The purpose of this study was to measure upper and lower tear menisci on contact lenses using real time optical coherence tomography (OCT). Both eyes of 20 adapted contact lens wearers were imaged when they wore two types of silicone hydrogel lenses ...

Advanced Science, EarlyView.In the pathological context of osteoarthritis (OA), the phosphorylation of AKT1 at Ser473 enhances its binding to Lys140 of Insig1, which facilitates the formation of AKT1–Insig1 complex. Subsequently, the activation of AKT1 promotes the phosphorylation of Insig1 at Ser189, potentially enhancing the dissociation of Insig1 from sterol regulatory element‑

Nematic Liquid Crystal Locking Menisci [PDF]
, 2013 We study meniscus driven locking of point defects of nematic liquid crystals confined within a cylindrical tube with free ends. Curvilinear coordinate system is introduced in order to focus on the phenomena of both (convex and concave) types of menisci ...

Hamaker Constants of van der Waals Materials under Clean‐Interface Conditions
Advanced Science, EarlyView.Clean‐interface adhesion in representative van der Waals materials is quantified by Ultra High Vacuum (UHV) Atomic Force Microscopy (AFM) with in situ cleaning and calibrated probes. Benchmark Hamaker constants for graphene, MoS2, and SiO2 are established, while humidity is shown to reversibly amplify adhesion, explaining much of the scatter in ...
