## Abstract The aim of this study was to validate a device developed previously to measure laxity of murine knee joints and to investigate whether experimentally induced pathological conditions result in measurable laxity. The laxity characteristics of normal murine knee joints were derived from me

## Abstract Changes in anterior knee laxity (AKL), genu recurvatum (GR) and general joint laxity (GJL) were quantified across days of the early follicular and early luteal phases of the menstrual cycle in 66 females, and the similarity in their pattern of cyclic variations examined. Laxity was meas
Surgical stabilisation of the normally medially--subluxing patella of STR/ORT male mice, prevented the normal development of osteoarthrosis in the medial compartment of the femoro-tibial joint. Surgically produced medial dislocation of the patella in non-arthrosis-prone male CBA/ORT mice often gave
