2. 1. Metabolism of articular cartilage proteoglycans in vitro : effects of synovial membrane products and mechanical pressure

   Author : Agneta Klämfeldt; Umeå universitet; []
   Keywords : MEDICIN OCH HÄLSOVETENSKAP; MEDICAL AND HEALTH SCIENCES; Articular cartilage; Proteoglycan metabolism; Synovial membrane products; Mechanical stress; Indom ethacin; Glucocorticoids; Prostaglandins; Osteoarthritis; Rheumatoid arthritis;

   Abstract : The effect of synovial membrane products and mechanical pressure upon the metabolism of articular cartilage proteoglycans has been studied in vitro. The degradation of cartilage proteoglycans was studied in an organ culture system and measured as the release of [35S ] sulphate from prelabelled cartilage. READ MORE

4. 2. Production of neocartilage tissues using primary chondrocytes

   Author : Janne Ylärinne; Mikko Lammi; Chengjuan Qu; Mats Brittberg; Umeå universitet; []
   Keywords : MEDICIN OCH HÄLSOVETENSKAP; MEDICAL AND HEALTH SCIENCES; primary chondrocytes; articular cartilage; tissue engineering; neocartilage; scaffold; scaffold-free; hyaluronan; self-assembling peptide; TGF-β3; glucosamine sulfate; hypoxia; hypertonic medium; glucose;

   Abstract : Hyaline cartilage is a highly specialized tissue, which plays an important role in the articulating joints of an individual. It provides the joints with a nearly frictionless, impact resisting surface to protect the ends of the articulating bones. READ MORE

5. 3. Joint disease biomarkers - discovery and application

   Author : Dovilė Sinkevičiūtė; Reumatologi och molekylär skelettbiologi; []
   Keywords : NATURVETENSKAP; NATURAL SCIENCES; MEDICIN OCH HÄLSOVETENSKAP; MEDICAL AND HEALTH SCIENCES; Osteoarthritis; Psoriatic arthritis; cartilage; Proteomics; Biomarkers; ELISA; Tissue culture; Extracellular matrix ECM ;

   Abstract : Dysregulated cartilage homeostasis, articular cartilage degradation and abnormal bone remodeling are common denominators in joint disease and can lead to severe disability for the patients. The molecular pathways behind the disease pathology can overlap across different joint diseases. READ MORE

6. 4. Biofabrication, Biomechanics and Biocompatibility of Nanocellulose-based Scaffolds for Auricular Cartilage Regeneration

   Author : Hector Martinez Avila; Chalmers tekniska högskola; []

   Abstract : In about 2:10,000 births the external part of the ear, the auricle, is severely malformed or absent. Furthermore, tumors and trauma can cause defects to the auricle. READ MORE

7. 5. Cartilage Tissue Engineering. A study on how to improve cartilage repair

   Author : Sebastian Concaro; Göteborgs universitet; []
   Keywords : MEDICIN OCH HÄLSOVETENSKAP; MEDICAL AND HEALTH SCIENCES; Cartilage tissue engineering Orthopaedics Knee Biomaterials;

   Abstract : One of the first examples of musculoskeletal tissue engineering is autologous chondrocyte implantation (ACI).The first patient with a cartilage lesion was operated with ACI in 1987 and at that time suspension implantation was used. READ MORE
