Journal ArticleDOI
Comparison of the equilibrium response of articular cartilage in unconfined compression, confined compression and indentation
Rami K. Korhonen,Mikko S. Laasanen,Juha Töyräs,Jarno Rieppo,Jani Hirvonen,Heikki J. Helminen,Jukka S. Jurvelin +6 more
TL;DR: Values of the elastic parameters of the cartilage are dependent on the measurement technique in use and may depend on the indenter size in use, as well as the equilibrium response of articular cartilage under unconfined and confined compression.
Journal ArticleDOI
T2 relaxation reveals spatial collagen architecture in articular cartilage: a comparative quantitative MRI and polarized light microscopic study.
Miika T. Nieminen,Jarno Rieppo,Juha Töyräs,Juhana M. Hakumäki,Johanna Silvennoinen,Mika M. Hyttinen,Heikki J. Helminen,Jukka S. Jurvelin +7 more
TL;DR: The current results reveal the close connection between the laminar T2 structure and the collagen architecture in histologic zones.
Journal ArticleDOI
Normal and pathological adaptations of articular cartilage to joint loading.
TL;DR: The prevailing view is that osteoarthrosis starts from the cartilage surface through PG depletion and fibrillation of the superficial collagen network, and it has been suggested that the initial structural changes take place in the subchondral bone, especially when the joint is exposed to an impact type of loading.
Journal ArticleDOI
Optical and mechanical determination of Poisson's ratio of adult bovine humeral articular cartilage.
TL;DR: An optical method for the visualization of boundaries of cylindrical bovine humeral head articular cartilage disks, immersed in physiological solution, and compressed in unconfined geometry revealed that the lateral expansion, especially during the initial phase of relaxation, was inhomogeneous through the tissue depth.
Journal ArticleDOI
Moderate running exercise augments glycosaminoglycans and thickness of articular cartilage in the knee joint of young beagle dogs.
TL;DR: It is considered that moderate running exercise locally alters the biological properties of young articular cartilage at regions bearing the highest loading surplus.
