Transcriptome Analysis of Injured Human Meniscus Reveals a Distinct Phenotype of Meniscus Degeneration With Aging
9 May 2013
Abstract excerpt
OBJECTIVE: Meniscus tears are associated with a heightened risk of osteoarthritis. This study aimed to advance our understanding of the metabolic state of injured human meniscus at the time of arthroscopic partial meniscectomy through transcriptome-wide analysis of gene expression in relation to the patient's age and degree of cartilage chondrosis. METHODS: The degree of chondrosis of knee cartilage was recorded...
