Abstract Purpose The treatment of Achilles tendon (AT) rupture can be conservative or surgical; the latter is better indicated in high‐performance athletes. The pursuit of faster recovery and reductions in skin complications and re‐ruptures have improved the tendon repair technique and early assisted rehabilitation programs.

Insulin‐Like Growth Factors, Binding Proteins and Their Role in Pregnancy in Patients With Diabetes
The insulin‐like growth factor (IGF) axis, an evolutionarily conserved system, is critical in regulating cell growth, proliferation, and survival, affecting nearly all organ systems. This axis comprises two growth factors, IGF‐I and IGF‐II, and six insulin‐like growth factor–binding proteins (IGFBPs), modulating IGF activity.

Chondroitin sulfate in invertebrate development
Abstract Chondroitin sulfate (CS) is one of the most evolutionarily conserved glycosaminoglycans (GAGs). Although CS's function in skeletal development is well established in vertebrates, CS exists in more primitive animal species with no cartilage or bone, such as C.

Proteomic exploration of potential blood biomarkers in haemophilic arthropathy
Abstract Background and Aims The pathophysiology of haemophilic arthropathy (HA) is complex and largely undefined. Proteomic analyses provide insights into the intricate mechanisms of the HA. Our study aimed to identify differentially expressed proteins in relation to the severity of HA, explore their pathophysiological roles, and evaluate their ...

This study examined the effects of metformin (MF) and trodusquemine (MSI‐1436) on the livers of young, developing mice. We discovered that MSI‐1436 significantly alters mRNA and miRNA expression more potently than MF, impacting key metabolic pathways.

Scale‐Dependent Rheology of Synovial Fluid Lubricating Macromolecules
A multiscale methodology using optical tweezers is developed to examine the interactions between hyaluronic acid (HA) and proteoglycan‐4 (PRG4/lubricin), which are major lubricating biomolecules of synovial fluid in the joints. For the first time, the length scale dependent structure and rheology in solution are characterized, providing a framework for

Proteoglycan 4 (PRG4) treatment improves skin wound healing in a porcine model
Proteoglycan 4 (PRG4) is commonly found in synovial fluid of the articular joint and serves as a boundary lubricant of articular cartilage. Interestingly, we show that human recombinant proteoglycan 4 (rhPRG4) improves healing of porcine full‐thickness skin injuries. rhPRG4 treatment decreases fibrosis, increases vascularization, and retains adipocytes
