The anterior cruciate ligament in murine post-traumatic osteoarthritis: markers and mechanics

This study examines structural, cellular, and viscoelastic changes in the ACL of a murine PTOA model, finding ECM modifications and altered biomechanics.

Post-traumatic osteoarthritis development is not modified by postnatal chondrocyte deletion of CCN2.

This study shows that deleting CCN2 in adult chondrocytes does not alter the development of post-traumatic osteoarthritis in mice.

Syndecan-3 enhances anabolic bone formation through WNT signalling

This study shows that Syndecan-3 promotes bone formation by enhancing WNT signaling in osteoblasts, and its absence leads to osteoporosis-like features in mice.

Meniscal and ligament modifications in spontaneous and post-traumatic mouse models of osteoarthritis

This study examines meniscal and ligament changes in two mouse OA models, finding increased mineralisation and chondrogenesis associated with cartilage degeneration.
