Regulation of the canine cranial cruciate ligament by the adipokines, TNF alpha and leptin

2009-01-01

Abstract excerpt

Rupture of the cranial cruciate ligament (CCL) in dogs and the anterior cruciate ligament (ACL) in human beings, with ensuing development of osteoarthritis (OA) is a common orthopaedic problem in these species. Many risk factors have been identified in the development of cruciate rupture and OA; these include obesity, trauma, gender, age and genetics. Differences in physiological hormone levels have been associate...
