Biodistribution and Immunogenicity of Allogeneic Mesenchymal Stem Cells in a Rat Model of Intraarticular Chondrocyte Xenotransplantation
(Frontiers, 2017-11-06)
[Abstract] Xenogeneic chondrocytes and allogeneic mesenchymal stem cells (MSC) are considered a potential source of cells for articular cartilage repair. We here assessed the immune response triggered by xenogeneic ...
Hyperlipidemic microenvironment conditionates damage mechanisms in human chondrocytes by oxidative stress
(BMC, 2017-06-12)
[Abstract] Background, Currently, two pathogenic pathways describe the role of obesity in osteoarthritis (OA); one through biomechanical stress, and the other by the contribution of systemic inflammation. The aim of this ...
Amentadione from the Alga Cystoseira usneoides as a Novel Osteoarthritis Protective Agent in an Ex Vivo Co-Culture OA Model
(MDPI, 2020-12-07)
[Abstract] Osteoarthritis (OA) remains a prevalent chronic disease without effective prevention and treatment. Amentadione (YP), a meroditerpenoid purified from the alga Cystoseira usneoides, has demonstrated anti-inflammatory ...
Potential use of the human amniotic membrane as a scaffold in human articular cartilage repair
(Springer, 2010-04-13)
[Abstract] The human amniotic membrane (HAM) is an abundant and readily obtained tissue that may be an important source of scaffold for transplanted chondrocytes in cartilage regeneration in vivo. To evaluate the potential ...
Multilineage differentiation potential of cells isolated from the human amniotic membrane
(Wiley, 2010-11-01)
[Abstract] The human amniotic membrane (HAM) contains two cell types from different embryological origins. Human amnion epithelial cells (hAECs) are derived from the embryonic ectoderm, while human amnion mesenchymal stromal ...
Mitochondrial activity is modulated by TNFα and IL-1β in normal human chondrocyte cells
(Elsevier, 2006-05-05)
[Abstract] Objective. Pro-inflammatory cytokines play an important role in osteoarthritis (OA). In osteoarthritic cartilage, chondrocytes exhibit an alteration in mitochondrial activity. This study analyzes the effect of ...
Human amniotic mesenchymal stromal cells as favorable source for cartilage repair
(Mary Ann Liebert, 2017-01-10)
[Abstract]
Introduction: Localized trauma-derived breakdown of the hyaline articular cartilage may progress toward osteoarthritis, a degenerative condition characterized by total loss of articular cartilage and joint ...
A pharmacoproteomic study confirms the synergistic effect of chondroitin sulfate and glucosamine
(Nature, 2014-06-10)
[Abstract] Osteoarthritis (OA) is the most common age-related rheumatic disease. Chondrocytes play a primary role in mediating cartilage destruction and extracellular matrix (ECM) breakdown, which are main features of the ...
Mitochondrial Respiratory Chain Dysfunction Modulates Metalloproteases -1, -3 and -13 in Human Normal Chondrocytes in Culture
(BioMed Central, 2013-08-09)
[Abstract] Background. Mitochondrion has an important role in the osteoarthritis (OA) pathology. We have previously demonstrated that the alteration of the mitochondrial respiratory chain (MRC) contributes to the inflammatory ...
Gene Expression Signatures of Synovial Fluid Multipotent Stromal Cells in Advanced Knee Osteoarthritis and Following Knee Joint Distraction
(Frontiers Media S.A., 2020-10-14)
[Abstract]
Osteoarthritis (OA) is the most common musculoskeletal disorder. Although joint
replacement remains the standard of care for knee OA patients, knee joint distraction
(KJD), which works by temporarily off-loading ...
