Certain mouse strains have the ability to heal both ear wounds and knee articular cartilage injuries. A positive genetic correlation between cartilage healing and protection from osteoarthritis exists, which suggests that a common core of genes may operate in healing process. Here, we analyzed knee...

IL-1B is an important cytokine that is often found to be up-regulated during osteoarthritic and rheumatoid joint diseases. It is viewed as a catabolic factor, inducing enzymes that allow for the degradation of the cartilage extracellular matrix and also has essential roles as an autocrine and parac...

Analysis of differential gene expression in chondrocytes due to S1P ablation in mice. The hypothesis tested in this study was that ablation of S1P in mice would result in differential gene expression in chondrocytes that may be responsible for the S1Pcko phenotype. The chondroepiphyseal cartilage fr...

The anterior cruciate ligament (ACL) is an essential stabilizer of the tibiofemoral articulation. ACL tears often lead to functional instability and are associated with an increased risk for osteoarthritis. The healing potential of the injured ACL is poorly understood and is considered to be limited...

Injury to anterior cruciate ligament (ACL) is common in young individuals and a frequent cause of functional instability and early onset of osteoarthritis. The healing potential of an injured ACL is known to decay over time. The molecular origin of this healing deficiency largely remains elusive but...

Ectopic calcification in synovial tissues is devastating to diarthrodial joints. While some forms of synovial ectopic calcification have genetically simple basis, most cases manifest as complex traits with environmental and multigenic components. The location of causal loci or the physiological proc...
