Biomechanics of meniscus cells: regional variation and comparison to articular chondrocytes and ligament cells.

Biomechanics and modeling in mechanobiology - 1 Sept 2012

Sanchez-Adams Johannah, Athanasiou Kyriacos A

Abstract excerpt

Central to understanding mechanotransduction in the knee meniscus is the characterization of meniscus cell mechanics. In addition to biochemical and geometric differences, the inner and outer regions of the meniscus contain cells that are distinct in morphology and phenotype. This study investigated the regional variation in meniscus cell mechanics in comparison with articular chondrocytes and ligament cells. It...
