متن کاملCellular and extracellular matrix changes in anterior cruciate ligaments during human knee aging and osteoarthritis
INTRODUCTION Anterior cruciate ligament (ACL) degeneration is observed in most osteoarthritis (OA)-affected knee joints. However, the specific spatial and temporal relations of these changes and their association with extracellular matrix (ECM) degeneration are not well understood. The objective of this study was to characterize the patterns and relations of aging-related and OA-associated chan...
