Journal ArticleDOI
Tendon: biology, biomechanics, repair, growth factors, and evolving treatment options.
TL;DR: Screening the genes expressed during tendon morphogenesis and determining the growth factors most crucial for tendon development will likely lead to treatment options that result in superior repair tissue and ultimately improved functional outcomes.
Journal ArticleDOI
Establishing human prostate cancer cell xenografts in bone: Induction of osteoblastic reaction by prostate‐specific antigen‐producing tumors in athymic and SCID/bg mice using LNCaP and lineage‐derived metastatic sublines

TL;DR: A PSA‐producing and osteoblastic human prostate cancer xenograft model in mice is established and whereas LNCaP cells injected intracardially failed to develop metastasis, C4‐2 cells injected similarly had the highest metastatic capability in SCID/bg mice.
Journal ArticleDOI
The Pathogenesis and Prevention of Steroid Induced Osteonecrosis
TL;DR: In this paper, the effects of a lipid lowering agent, lovastatin, on the prevention of steroid induced adipogenesis in vitro in cell culture, and on adipogenesis and osteonecrosis in vivo in chickens, were evaluated.
Journal ArticleDOI
Marrow stromal cells embedded in alginate for repair of osteochondral defects
TL;DR: Alginate induces the chondrogenic phenotype in marrow stromal cells in vitro, and possesses the necessary physical characteristics and handling properties to support cells and serve as a carrier to fill full-thickness osteochondral defects in vivo.
Journal ArticleDOI
Steroid-induced adipogenesis in a pluripotential cell line from bone marrow.
TL;DR: The data indicate that dexamethasone stimulates the differentiation of cells in bone-marrow stroma into adipocytes as well as the accumulation of fat in the marrow at the expense of expression of type-I collagen and osteocalcin mRNA, thereby suppressing differentiation into osteoblasts.
