Intermittent Dynamic Compression Confers Anabolic Effects in Articular Cartilage

چکیده
(1) Background: Mechanical loading is an essential part of the function and maintenance joint. Despite importance intermittent mechanical loading, this factor rarely considered in preclinical models cartilage, limiting their translatability. The aim study was to investigate effects dynamic compression on extracellular matrix during long-term culture bovine cartilage explants. (2) Methods: Bovine articular explants were cultured for 21 days subjected 20 min 1 Hz cyclic compressive five consecutive each week. Cartilage remodeling investigated presence IGF-1 or TGF-β1, as well a TGF-β receptor (ALK5) kinase inhibitor assessed with biomarkers type II collagen formation (PRO-C2) fibronectin degradation (FBN-C). (3) Results: Compression increased release PRO-C2 FBN-C conditioned media and, furthermore, synergistically release. Inhibition ALK5 blocked dynamically compressed (4) Conclusions: Dynamic increases both degradation, interacts compression, increasing overall impact formation. These data show that important consider translational models.

Transient anabolic effects accompany epidermal growth factor receptor signal activation in articular cartilage in vivo
INTRODUCTION Signals from the epidermal growth factor receptor (EGFR) have typically been considered to provide catabolic activities in articular cartilage, and accordingly have been suggested to have a causal role in osteoarthritis progression. The aim of this study was to determine in vivo roles for endogenous EGFR signal activation in articular cartilage. METHODS Transgenic mice with condi...
متن کاملHypoxia Potentiates Anabolic Effects of Exogenous Hyaluronic Acid in Rat Articular Cartilage
Hyaluronic acid (HA) is used clinically to treat osteoarthritis (OA), but its pharmacological effects under hypoxic conditions remain unclear. Articular chondrocytes in patients with OA are exposed to a hypoxic environment. This study investigated whether hypoxia could potentiate the anabolic effects of exogenous HA in rat articular cartilage and whether these mechanisms involved HA receptors. ...

متن کاملDepth-dependent Relaxation of Articular Cartilage in Unconfined Compression
INTRODUCTION Articular cartilage (AC) is an inhomogeneous, anisotropic and multiphasic composite. Depth-dependent strain distribution in full thickness AC has previously been investigated with optical methods (Guilak, 1995; Schinagl, 1997; Wang, 2003). Depth and time-dependent compressive strain has been predicted with theoretical models (Li, 2000; Wang, 2001). Most recently, Electronic Speckle...
متن کاملStrain-rate dependent stiffness of articular cartilage in unconfined compression.
The stiffness of articular cartilage is a nonlinear function of the strain amplitude and strain rate as well as the loading history, as a consequence of the flow of interstitial water and the stiffening of the collagen fibril network. This paper presents a full investigation of the interplay between the fluid kinetics and fibril stiffening of unconfined cartilage disks by analyzing over 200 cas...
