Synovium and blood capillaries at the femoral attachment of anterior cruciate ligament are significantly abundant than those at the tibial attachment

Int. j. morphol; 41 (2), 2023
SUMMARY: The anterior cruciate ligament (ACL) is a ligament that mainly controls the anterior and rotational mobility of the knee joint, and its surface is covered by a synovial membrane with large number of blood vessels. In general, nutritional supply to the ligament is from many capillaries in the adj...

Lipoma Arborescente: uma causa de sinovite crônica?

O lipoma arborescente é uma causa incomum de lesão intra-articular que se apresenta como aumento de volume articular indolor, lentamente progressivo, que persiste por muitos anos e é acompanhado por derrames articulares intermitentes. O envolvimento de sítios extra-articulares é incomum, mas pode oc...

Increased elastic modulus of the synovial membrane in a rat ACLT model of osteoarthritis revealed by atomic force microscopy

Braz. j. med. biol. res; 53 (11), 2020
This study aimed to explore changes in nanoscale elastic modulus of the synovium using atomic force microscopy (AFM) in addition to investigate changes in synovial histomorphology and secretory function in osteoarthritis (OA) in a rat anterior cruciate ligament transection (ACLT) model. Sprague-Dawley ra...

IL-22 increases the production of sFRP3 by FLS in inflammatory joint diseases

Braz. j. med. biol. res; 53 (9), 2020
Rheumatoid arthritis (RA), psoriatic arthritis (PsA), and ankylosing spondylitis (AS) are inflammatory diseases with different bone remodeling patterns. Fibroblast-like synoviocytes (FLS) are cells involved in the transition from an acute and reparable phase to a chronic and persistent stage in these dis...

Microorganismos periodontales en el líquido sinovial de pacientes con artritis reumatoide. Revisión sistemática de la literatura 2017

Rev. colomb. reumatol; 25 (4), 2018
RESUMEN Introducción: La enfermedad periodontal (EP) y la artritis reumatoide (AR) son enfermedades inflamatorias crónicas multifactoriales que tienen en común algunos factores etiopatogénicos y la destrucción de los tejidos dentoalveolares y de las articulaciones sinoviales, de tal forma que se h...

Papel da exposição à Hidroquinona na artrite reumatoide experimental induzida pelo colágeno

Artrite reumatoide (AR) é uma doença autoimune, que causa inflamação crônica nas membranas sinoviais de diversas articulações. O modelo experimenal de artrite induzida pelo colágeno (AIC) é empregado para investigar os mecanismos da AR e para identificar potenciais agentes terapêuticos. Embora ...

Resistance exercise recovers the structure of cartilage and synovial membrane of the ankle joint of rats after sciatic compression

Motriz (Online); 23 (3), 2017
Aim: to determine the effects of sciatic compression and treatment with resistance exercise on the morphology of the ankle joint of Wistar rats. Methods: 32 male rats, aged 10 ± 1 week, weighing 376±22 grams were divided into the following four groups (n=8/group): CG (control), LG (lesion), EG (exerci...

Osteoarthritis model induced by intra-articular monosodium iodoacetate in rats knee

Acta cir. bras; 31 (11), 2016
ABSTRACT PURPOSE: To evaluate the usefulness of a knee osteoarthritis model through functional, radiological and microscopic changes of the synovial membrane. METHODS: Forty eight rats were divided randomly into two groups. The first received 0.9% saline in the joint and corresponded to the control gro...
