Impact of prevalence ratios of chondroitin sulfate (CS)- 4 and -6 isomers derived from marine sources in cell proliferation and chondrogenic differentiation processes
(MDPI, 2020-01-31)
[Abstract]
Osteoarthritis is the most prevalent rheumatic disease. During disease progression,
differences have been described in the prevalence of chondroitin sulfate (CS) isomers. Marine
derived-CS present a higher ...
Leukocyte telomere length in patients with radiographic knee osteoarthritis
(Wiley, 2019-11-29)
[Abstract] Relative mean telomere sequence amount was determined by quantitative PCR (qPCR) of peripheral blood leukocyte (PBL) samples obtained at recruitment (n = 310) from individuals from the Osteoarthritis (OA) ...
Is It Time for Epigenetics in Osteoarthritis?
(Wiley, 2014-05-16)
[Abstract] DNA methylation is an epigenetic mechanism of reversible gene regulation which typically results in gene silencing upon hypermethylation in high CpG density regions of promoters (termed CpG islands), and increased ...
Chondrogenic Potential of Subpopulations of Cells Expressing Mesenchymal Stem Cell Markers Derived from Human Synovial Membranes
(Wiley, 2010-07-21)
[Abstract] In this study we analyzed the chondrogenic potential of subpopulations of mesenchymal stem cells (MSCs) derived from human synovial membranes enriched for CD73, CD106, and CD271 markers. Subpopulations of human ...
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 genetics and epigenetics in osteoarthritis
(Frontiers, 2020-01-17)
[Abstract] During recent years, the significant influence of mitochondria on osteoarthritis (OA), the most common joint disease, has been consistently demonstrated. Not only mitochondrial dysfunction but also mitochondrial ...
Differentiation of Synovial CD-105+ Human Mesenchymal Stem Cells into Chondrocyte-like Cells through Spheroid Formation
(Wiley, 2009-06-18)
[Abstract] Mesenchymal stem cells (MSCs) have the capacity to differentiate into several cell lineages, some of which can generate bone, cartilage, or adipose tissue. The presence of MSCs in the synovial membrane was ...
What did we learn from 'omics' studies in osteoarthritis
(Wolters Kluwer, 2018-01-01)
[Abstract] Purpose of review: 'Omics' technologies developed for the massive analysis of the major biologically relevant molecules (genes, proteins, metabolites) have been applied to the study of osteoarthritis (OA) for ...
Mitochondrial haplogroups define two phenotypes of osteoarthritis
(Frontiers, 2012-05-11)
[Abstract] Objective: To assess a mitochondrion-related phenotype in patients with osteoarthritis (OA).
Methods: Serum levels of the following OA-related biomarkers: matrix metalloproteinase-1 (MMP-1); MMP-3; MMP-13; ...
Genetic biomarkers in osteoarthritis: a quick overview
(Faculty Opinions, 2021-11-10)
[Abstract] Osteoarthritis (OA) is a chronic musculoskeletal disease with a polygenic and heterogeneous nature. In addition, when clinical manifestations appear, the evolution of the disease is usually already irreversible. ...
