Chondrocytes are the only cell type in normal cartilage. The pathological changes of
osteoarthritis (OA) mostly revolve around the apoptosis and dysfunction of chondrocytes …

Purpose The present study was conduced in order to analyse the molecular changes during
the apoptotic cascade in knee articular cartilage of patients with OA. Method Articular …

This study addresses the occurrence and significance of chondrocyte apoptosis in the
pathogenesis of cartilage destruction. Chondrocyte apoptosis can be inducedin vitroby nitric …

Traumatic injuries of the knee joint result in a wide variety of pathomechanisms, which
contribute to the development of so-called posttraumatic osteoarthritis (PTOA). These …

Objective The severity of osteoarthritis (OA) and cartilage degeneration is highly correlated
with the development of synovitis, which is mediated by the activity of inflammatory …

Osteoarthritis (OA) is characterized by cartilage attrition, subchondral bone remodeling,
osteophyte formation and synovial inflammation. Perturbed homeostasis caused by …

Osteoarthritis (OA) is the most common degenerative joint disease that causes painful
swelling and permanent damage to the joints in the body. The molecular mechanisms of OA …

OBJECTIVES: To investigate the frequency of chondrocyte apoptosis in equine articular
cartilage (AC) specimens and to examine the relationship between the process of cell death …

New research has shown that the development of osteoarthritis (OA) is regulated by different
mechanisms of cell death and types of cytokines. Therefore, elucidating the mechanism of …

Chondrocyte apoptosis is closely related to the development and progression of
osteoarthritis (OA); however, the underlying mechanisms remain enigmatic. Previous studies …
