Non-invasive Loading Model of Murine Osteoarthritis
Osteoarthritis is the commonest degenerative joint disease, leading to joint pain and disability. The mouse has been the primary animal used for research, due to its size, relatively short lifespan, and the availability of genetically modified animals. Importantly, they show pathogenesis similar to osteoarthritis in humans. Mechanical loading is a major risk factor for osteoarthritis, and vario...
متن کاملinvestigating the feasibility of a proposed model for geometric design of deployable arch structures
deployable scissor type structures are composed of the so-called scissor-like elements (sles), which are connected to each other at an intermediate point through a pivotal connection and allow them to be folded into a compact bundle for storage or transport. several sles are connected to each other in order to form units with regular polygonal plan views. the sides and radii of the polygons are...
A novel murine model for keratoprosthesis.
PURPOSE To establish a murine model for keratoprosthesis. METHODS A miniature keratoprosthesis (m-KPro) device was created consisting of a poly[methyl methacrylate] front part and a titanium back plate, designed after the Boston KPro, which is in widespread clinical use. BALB/c mice were used and a 2 mm in diameter donor cornea was punched out. After 2-mm trepanation of the syngeneic recipien...
متن کاملPartial weight suspension: a novel murine model for investigating adaptation to reduced musculoskeletal loading.
We developed a new model of hypodynamic loading to support mice in chronic conditions of partial weight bearing, enabling simulations of reduced gravity environments and related clinical conditions. The novel hardware allows for reduced loading between 10 and 80% of normal body weight on all four limbs and enables characteristic quadrupedal locomotion. Ten-week-old female BALB/cByJ mice were su...
متن کاملA Novel Model for Pallet Loading Problem Using Hybrid Optimization
A Pallet is a squared structure used for storage. As it has been produced over five million pallets a year, methodologies that reduce the storage cost are interesting. It is necessary to best allocate the items, which we‟ve used as boxes, to take the best advantage of the storage space. There are many possible allocations for a box on the pallet, and simply solve the problem can take a long tim...
