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 ...
Mesenchymal Stromal Cells for Articular Cartilage Repair: Preclinical Studies
(AO Research Institute Davos (ARI), 2020-08-26)
[Abstract]
Rheumatic diseases such as osteoarthritis (OA) are a major social and economic burden because of the
population aging and the lack of curative solutions. An effective cell therapy may be the best treatment ...
Study of Fucoidans as Natural Biomolecules for Therapeutical Applications in Osteoarthritis
(Elsevier, 2021-01-26)
[Abstract]
Osteoarthritis (OA) is the most prevalent articular chronic disease. Although, to date there is no cure for OA. Fucoidans, one of the main therapeutic components of brown algae, have emerged as promising molecules ...
Hydrogen sulfide and inflammatory joint diseases
(Bentham, 2017)
[Abstract] Background: Rheumatoid arthritis (RA) and osteoarthritis (OA) are widespread rheumatic diseases characterized by persistent inflammation and joint destruction. Hydrogen sulfide (H2S) is an endogenous gas with ...
Effect of balneotherapy in sulfurous water on an in vivo murine model of osteoarthritis
(Springer, 2019-11-01)
[Abstract] Osteoarthritis (OA) is a chronic joint disease that results in progressive cartilage destruction and subsequently joint dysfunction. Growing evidence indicates beneficial impact of balneological interventions ...
Intraarticular Administration Effect of Hydrogen Sulfide on an In Vivo Rat Model of Osteoarthritis
(MDPI, 2020-10-08)
[Abstract]
Osteoarthritis (OA) is the most common articular chronic disease. However, its current treatment is limited and mostly symptomatic. Hydrogen sulfide (H2S) is an endogenous gas with recognized physiological ...
The nuclear factor-erythroid 2-related factor/heme oxygenase-1 axis is critical for the inflammatory features of type 2 diabetes–associated osteoarthritis
(American Society for Biochemistry and Molecular Biology, 2017-09-01)
[Asbtract] Epidemiological findings support the hypothesis that type 2 diabetes mellitus (T2DM) is a risk factor for osteoarthritis (OA). Moreover, OA cartilage from patients with T2DM exhibits a greater response to ...
Effect of hydrogen sulfide sources on inflammation and catabolic markers on interleukin 1β-stimulated human articular chondrocytes
(Elsevier, 2014-07)
[Abstract] Objective. Hydrogen sulfide (H2S), the third gasotransmitter together with NO and CO, is emerging as a regulator of inflammation. To test if it might offer therapeutic value in the treatment of osteoarthritis ...
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 ...
Therapeutic Delivery of rAAV sox9 via Polymeric Micelles Counteracts the Effects of Osteoarthritis-Associated Inflammatory Cytokines in Human Articular Chondrocytes
(MDPI, 2020-06-25)
[Abstract]
Osteoarthritis (OA) is a prevalent joint disease linked to the irreversible degradation of key extracellular cartilage matrix (ECM) components (proteoglycans, type-II collagen) by proteolytic enzymes due to an ...
