Surviving the drought: burrowing frogs save energy by increasing mitochondrial coupling.

During dormancy energy conservation is a key priority and as such dormant animals undergo a major metabolic depression to conserve their limited endogenous fuel supplies. Mitochondrial coupling efficiency, the efficiency with which mitochondria convert oxygen into ATP, significantly affects aerobic metabolism and thus to maximise energy savings during dormancy it has been hypothesised that coup...

Save the Meniscus, A Good Strategy to Preserve the Knee

With increasing life expectancy, the demand for preservation of native articular cartilage is increasing to delay joint arthroplasties. In the knee, there are many different strategies to preserve the articular cartilage including but not limited to corrective osteotomies, chondral injury restoration, intraarticular injection of cells or growth factors(PRP).
