EFFECTS OF OSTEOARTHRITIS AND INFLAMMATION ON MENISCUS CELL RESPONSE TO OSTEOGENIC PROTEIN 1 (OP1)
… member, Osteogenic Protein 1 (OP1/BMP7) in meniscus cells. We have focused on the meniscus, because this tissue is highly susceptable to injuries which often fail to heal and lead to osteoarthritis (OA). OA is driven by molecular inflammation which disrupts tissue homeostasis through the …

Role of ATG 5 in ER stress-induced apoptosis in meniscus.
… was to examine the effect of these FFAs in meniscus joint tissues. Our study demonstrated that saturated free fatty acid palmitate induces endoplasmic reticulum stress in primary porcine meniscus cells, and significantly decreased the protein level of ATG 5, a major autophagy related protein …

Harnessing the Regenerative Characteristics of Meniscus Superficial Zone Cells
The meniscus is a semilunar fibrocartilaginous structure that is critical for knee joint function. Tears in the knee meniscus present a significant clinical burden due to the limited endogenous healing capacity. Superficial meniscus cells are thought to play a critical role in meniscus injury …

Kultivierung humaner Meniskuszellen in verschiedenen Kultursystemen
In den letzten Jahren konnte gezeigt werden, dass die Degeneration sowie auch die durch Verletzung bedingten Schäden der Menisci eine große Rolle im Gesundheitswesen spielen. Obwohl viele Studien im Rahmen der Meniskusersatztherapie hoffnungsvolle Ergebnisse bezüglich der Heilungsrate, der …
