## Abstract Rheumatoid synovium in coculture with cartilage has been shown to release a factor(s) that stimulates the depletion of glycosaminoglycans (GAG) from cartilage matrix. Human rheumatoid synovium was enzymatically disaggregated and the isolated cells were subjected to a variety of mechanic

## Abstract Effects of __Escherichia coli__ and __Staphylococcus aureus__ on cartilage and chondrocytes in culture are reported. Under these conditions, bacterial effects on cartilage degradation and cell viability are measured in the absence of inflammation. __E coli__ causes a 28% loss and __S au
## Abstract We report on the testing of materials for a fully degradable tracheal stent. Such a stent has several advantages over currently used permanent stents made of metal or silicone polymers. However, the mode of degradation in the trachea is expected to be different from a fully submerged de
## Abstract Viable bovine nasal cartilage was examined with magnetic resonance (MR) spectroscopy. Digestion of the proteoglycan matrix by papain or trypsin was accompanied by substantial changes in carbonβ13, sodiumβ23, and hydrogenβ1 MR spectra and relaxation parameters, with Cβ13 MR spectra showi
Articular cartilage is notoriously defective in its capacity for self-repair, making joints particularly sensitive to degenerative processes. However, methods are now available for the preparation of large numbers of differentiated chondrocytes from a small biopsy sample from any patient. The cells
