Potential Application of a Water‐Soluble Fullerene C60 Decorated with Diethylene Glycol in Treatment of Osteoarthritis

Advanced NanoBiomed Research, EarlyView.
A new ethoxyethanol derivative of iminofullerene, F2, is synthesized and labeled with 99mTc to produce 99mTc‐F2. In vitro, compound F2 inhibits the activation of primary mouse bone marrow‐derived macrophages stimulated with lipopolysaccharide. Moreover, 99mTc‐F2 is selectively enriched in the injured joints of mice. Inflammatory macrophages play a role

Aberrant Gait Biomechanics Linked to Cartilage Changes After ACL Reconstruction in Those With High Body Mass Index

Journal of Orthopaedic Research, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT A history of anterior cruciate ligament reconstruction (ACLR) and high body mass index (BMI) are strong risk factors for incident knee osteoarthritis. Limited research has evaluated the interaction between ACLR and high BMI on limb‐level loading and early deleterious changes in cartilage health.

Acute Prolonged Hamstrings Vibration Reduces Limb Stiffness Following Anterior Cruciate Ligament Reconstruction During a Single‐Limb Drop‐Jump Task

Journal of Orthopaedic Research, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT Impaired quadriceps function influences lower limb biomechanics following anterior cruciate ligament reconstruction (ACLR). This often results in stiff limb loading which leads to the development of knee osteoarthritis. Greater hamstrings/quadriceps co‐activation is common after ACLR and is, in part, responsible for impaired quadriceps ...

Determination of patellar ligament and anterior cruciate ligament geometry using MRI

Genetics and Molecular Research, 2015
Ligament geometry is crucial to surgical treatment success in anterior cruciate ligament (ACL) injury. This study aimed to optimize the MRI technique to elucidate the geometry of the patellar ligament (PL) and ACL in vivo. A 1.5-T superconducting MRI system with a special surface coil and fast spin echo was used to acquire high-resolution T1-weighted ...

Sonographic Patellar and Quadriceps Tendon Length Pre‐ and Post‐Autograft Harvest: Reliability and Concurrent Validity

Journal of Orthopaedic Research, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT Extensor mechanism autografts used for anterior cruciate ligament reconstruction, namely bone‐patellar tendon‐bone (BPTB) and quadriceps tendon (QT), may result in harvest‐site tendon elongation. Extended field of view (EFOV) ultrasound imaging has the potential to evaluate changes in tendon length, but the reliability and validity of these ...
