Journal ArticleDOI
Induction of cytokine expression by leukemia inhibitory factor.
TL;DR: The results suggest that through the induction of cytokines, LIF can modulate inflammation, immune responses, and connective tissue metabolism, and act as a pathogenetic mediator in different disease states.
Journal ArticleDOI
Biomechanics of cartilage articulation: effects of lubrication and degeneration on shear deformation.
TL;DR: During articulation, peak cartilage shear is highest near the articular surface and decreases markedly with depth, and with degeneration and diminished lubrication, the markedly increased cartilageShear strain near theArticular surface may contribute to progressive cartilage deterioration and osteoarthritis.
Journal ArticleDOI
Biomechanical, structural, and biochemical indices of degenerative and osteoarthritic deterioration of adult human articular cartilage of the femoral condyle

TL;DR: Even in the cartilage of knees exhibiting overt fibrillation but not extensive erosions characteristic of clinical osteoarthritis, most features of advanced cartilage degeneration were present, providing evidence of coordinated mechanical dysfunction, collagen network remodeling, and surfacefibrillation.
Journal ArticleDOI
Regulation of Epstein-Barr virus infection by recombinant interferons: selected sensitivity to interferon-γ
TL;DR: Of the three recombinant IFN, only IFN‐γ reduced EBV‐induced proliferation and Ig secretion when added 3–4 days after virus infection;IFN‐α/β were only effective up to 24 h; and B lymphoblastoid lines already transformed by EBV are insensitive to the anti‐proliferative actions of all three types of IFN.
Journal ArticleDOI
Comparison of cartilage histopathology assessment systems on human knee joints at all stages of osteoarthritis development.

TL;DR: Both scoring systems were reliable but appeared too complex and time consuming for assessment of lesion severity, the major parameter determined in standardized scoring systems.
