  1. 11. Chondrocyte-matrix interactions: with emphasis on the collagen binding integrin a10ß1

    Författare :Lisbet Camper; Lunds universitet; []
    Nyckelord :MEDICIN OCH HÄLSOVETENSKAP; MEDICAL AND HEALTH SCIENCES; muscle system; Skeleton; chondrocyte; integrin; cartilage; chondroadherin; collagen; Biochemistry; metabolism; Biokemi; reumatologi; muskelsystem; Skelett; rheumatology locomotion;

    Sammanfattning : The work in this thesis has been focused on chondrocyte integrins and their interaction with the matrix proteins chondroadherin (CHAD) and collagen type II (CII). Affinity purification of CHAD-binding proteins from chondrocyte lysate, followed by immunoprecipitation of EDTA-eluted material identified alpha2beta1 as a CHAD-binding integrin. LÄS MER

  3. 12. Inflammation and tendon healing

    Författare :Parmis Blomgran; Per Aspenberg; Jan Ernerudh; Patrik Danielson; Linköpings universitet; []
    Nyckelord :MEDICIN OCH HÄLSOVETENSKAP; MEDICAL AND HEALTH SCIENCES;

    Sammanfattning : Tendons heal through three different overlapping phases; the inflammatory, proliferative and remodeling phase. Many studies have investigated what factors influence healing of tendons. However, little was known about inflammation and the immune cells present during Achilles tendon healing by the time this thesis started. LÄS MER

  4. 13. Synchrotron-based characterization of mechanobiological effects on the nanoscale in musculoskeletal tissues

    Författare :Isabella Silva Barreto; Avdelningen för Biomedicinsk teknik; []
    Nyckelord :TEKNIK OCH TEKNOLOGIER; ENGINEERING AND TECHNOLOGY; nanoscale; microscale; mechanical properties; synchrotron; x-ray imaging; collagen; hydroxyapatite; biomechanics; experimental mechanics; x-ray tomography; small-angle x-ray scattering SAXS ; wide-angle x-ray scattering WAXS ; x-ray fluorescence XRF ; small-angle x-ray scattering tensor tomography SASTT ; Fourier-transform infrared spectroscopy FTIR ; polarized light microscopy PLM ; bone development; Achilles tendon; tendon healing;

    Sammanfattning : Collagen is the main organic building block of musculoskeletal tissues. Despite collagen being their smallest load bearing unit, these tissues differ significantly in mechanical function and properties. A major factor behind these differences is their hierarchical organization, from the collagen molecule up to the organ scale. LÄS MER

  5. 14. Computational modeling of mechanobiology in intact and healing rat Achilles tendon

    Författare :Thomas Notermans; Avdelningen för Biomedicinsk teknik; []
    Nyckelord :TEKNIK OCH TEKNOLOGIER; ENGINEERING AND TECHNOLOGY; Collagen; Finite element model; Mechano-regulation; Mechanical Properties; Strain; Oxygen; Viscoelasticity;

    Sammanfattning : Tendons fulfill an important musculoskeletal function by enabling energy-efficient force transmission between muscles and bones. The tendon is a collagen-rich connective tissue that adapts to mechanical loading through mechanobiological processes. LÄS MER

  7. 15. BMP treatment for improving tendon repair. Studies on rat and rabbit Achilles tendons

    Författare :Carina Forslund; Lund Ortopedi; []
    Nyckelord :MEDICIN OCH HÄLSOVETENSKAP; MEDICAL AND HEALTH SCIENCES; traumatologi; Surgery; orthopaedics; traumatology; ortopedi; Kirurgi;

    Sammanfattning : We wanted to improve tendon healing by adding a growth factor. Bone Morphogenetic Proteins (BMPs) are well known to stimulate bone healing and bone formation. The local environment is of major importance for cell differentiation after a BMP has been added. LÄS MER
