In osteoarthritis (OA) joint articular cartilage fails. While the etiology of cartilage failure in OA is still controversial, some of the mechanisms responsible for loss of proteoglycans from these tissues have been identified and offer insights for potential avenues of therapeutic control. Many non-...

Intervals, thresholds, and long slow distance: the role of intensity and duration in endurance training. Sportsci. 2009;13:32–53. Google Scholar Haugen T, Seiler S, Sandbakk O, et al. The training and development of elite sprint performance: an integration of scientific and best practice...
Therefore, the prominent imperative is to develop effective treatments that simultaneously manage common symptoms and slow down KOA progression. In recent years, intra-articular injection of mesenchymal stem cells (MSCs) has received extensive attention due to its immunomodulatory potential, offering a ...
The defining feature of osteoarthritis is the breakdown and loss of articular cartilage. This strong, smooth, slippery cartilage normally covers the surfaces of bones where they meet at joints—for example, the bottom of the femur (thighbone) and top of the tibia (shin bone) are covered in ...
