Two commercial adhesive preparations--fibrin glue and mussel adhesive protein (MAP)--were tested in-vivo for their ability to fix a chondrocyte allograft internally. While results for the fibrin, including additional testing for chondro inductive/conductive properties, were at best inconclusive, the results for MAP are highly promising.

Eggshell membrane (ESM) is a rich source of bioactive compounds, including proteins, peptides, and antioxidants, contributing to its potential therapeutic benefits. These natural antioxidants might help neutralize reactive oxygen species (ROS) and modulate inflammatory responses, which are often linked with chondrocyte damage in osteoarthritis. In this study, we investigated the functional effects of ESM proteins on HO-induced oxidative stress in a neonatal canine chondrocytes.

The high-dynamic, high-loading environment in the joint cavity puts urgent demands on the cartilage regenerative materials with shear responsiveness and lubrication. Here, a new type of injectable hydrogel composed of oxidized hyaluronic acid (OHA), adipic dihydrazide-grafted hyaluronic acid (HA-ADH), oxidized chondroitin sulfate (OChs), and decellularized extracellular matrix methacrylate (dECMMA) was fabricated. The aldehyde groups in OHA and OChs reacted with the amino groups in HA-ADH to form a dynamic hydrogel, which was then covalently crosslinked with dECMMA to create a dual-crosslinked hydrogel with sufficient mechanical strength.

This study explores the utilization of digital light processing (DLP) printing to fabricate complex structures using native gelatin as the sole structural component for applications in biological implants. Unlike approaches relying on synthetic materials or chemically modified biopolymers, this research harnesses the inherent properties of gelatin to create biocompatible structures. The printing process is based on a crosslinking mechanism using a di-tyrosine formation initiated by visible light irradiation.

Lines of evidence have indicated that type 2 diabetes mellitus (T2DM) is an independent risk factor for osteoarthritis (OA) progression. However, the study focused on the relationship between T2DM and OA at the transcriptional level remains empty. We downloaded OA- and T2DM-related bulk RNA-sequencing and single-cell RNA sequencing data from the Gene Expression Omnibus (GEO) dataset.
