chondrocytes

[Cancer Research] Scientists studied proton radiotherapy (PRT) damage to skin and mesenchymal tissues of muscle and bone and found that flash PRT of the C57BL/6 murine hind leg produced fewer severe toxicities leading to death or requiring euthanasia than standard proton-PRT of the same dose.

[Stem Cell Research & Therapy] Researchers explored effects of lipopolysaccharide (LPS)-pre extracellular vesicles (EVs) on chondrocyte proliferation, migration, and chondrocyte apoptosis, as well as the protective effect of LPS-pre EVs on mouse articular cartilage.

[Cartilage] Investigators evaluated the effects of MSC-extracellular vesicles on chondrocyte proliferation in vitro and on cartilage repair in vivo following bone marrow stimulation of focal chondral defects of the knee.

[Scientific Reports] Scientists presented an integrative analysis of clinical data, cytokines, serum metabolomics in rheumatoid arthritis patients and mechanistic studies on adenosine deaminase-mediated effects on in vitro cell culture models.

[Biomaterials] Scientists investigated whether a gridded three-dimensional (3D) bioprinted construct would allow ingrowth of blood vessels and thus prove a functional concept for vascularization of bioengineered tissue.

[Stem Cell Research & Therapy] Researchers compared the cytoprotection between peritoneal dialysis (PD) effluent-derived MSCs and umbilical cord-derived MSCs in the treatment of both peritoneal membrane and kidney injury in uremic rats with chronic PD.
