متن کاملMagnetic Resonance Imaging of Cartilage Repair
Magnetic resonance imaging is an important noninvasive modality in characterizing cartilage morphology, biochemistry, and function. It serves as a valuable objective outcome measure in diagnosing pathology at the time of initial injury, guiding surgical planning, and evaluating postsurgical repair. This article reviews the current literature addressing the recent advances in qualitative and qua...
متن کاملRepair of porcine articular cartilage defect with autologous chondrocyte transplantation.
Articular cartilage is known to have poor healing capacity after injury. Autologous chondral grafting remains the mainstay to treat well-defined, full-thickness, symptomatic cartilage defects. We demonstrated the utilization of gelatin microbeads to deliver autologous chondrocytes for in vivo cartilage generation. Chondrocytes were harvested from the left forelimbs of 12 Lee-Sung pigs. The cell...
متن کاملThe Role of Gene Therapy in Cartilage Repair
The key principle of gene delivery to articulations by direct intra-articular injection is to release complementary DNA(cDNA)-encoding medical products that will lead to maintained, endogenous production of the gene products withinthe articulation. In fact, this has been accomplished for both in vivo and ex vivo gene delivery, using several vectors,genes, and cells in some animal models. Some c...
متن کاملRepair Mechanisms in Articular Cartilage—A Porcine in Vitro Study
Explants are excellent systems for studying homeostasis in cartilage. The systems are very useful in pharmacological studies involving OA-treatment and in studies of repair mechanisms during injury to hyaline cartilage. The purpose of this study was to evaluate the reparative processes occurring in a young age porcine cartilage explant model examining tissue by Light (LM) and Transmission Elect...
