In Vivo Assessment of Exercise-Induced Glenohumeral Cartilage Strain.

Zhang, Hanci; Heckelman, Lauren N; Spritzer, Charles E; Owusu-Akyaw, Kwadwo A; Martin, John T; Taylor, Dean C; Moorman, CT; ... (9 authors) (Orthopaedic journal of sports medicine, 2018-07-13)

The human shoulder joint is the most mobile joint in the body. While in vivo shoulder kinematics under minimally loaded conditions have been studied, it is unclear how glenohumeral cartilage responds to high-demand loaded ...

Carter, Teralyn E; Taylor, Kevin A; Spritzer, Charles E; Utturkar, Gangadhar M; Taylor, Dean C; Moorman, Claude T; Garrett, William E; ... (10 authors)

Meniscus-Derived Matrix Scaffolds Promote the Integrative Repair of Meniscal Defects.

Ruprecht, Jacob C; Waanders, Taylor D; Rowland, Christopher R; Nishimuta, James F; Glass, Katherine A; Stencel, Jennifer; DeFrate, Louis E; ... (10 authors) (Scientific reports, 2019-06-18)

Meniscal tears have a poor healing capacity, and damage to the meniscus is associated with significant pain, disability, and progressive degenerative changes in the knee joint that lead to osteoarthritis. Therefore, strategies ...

Quantifying the biochemical state of knee cartilage in response to running using T1rho magnetic resonance imaging.

Heckelman, Lauren N; Smith, Wyatt AR; Riofrio, Alexie D; Vinson, Emily N; Collins, Amber T; Gwynn, Olivia R; Utturkar, Gangadhar M; ... (10 authors) (Scientific reports, 2020-02-05)

Roughly 20% of Americans run annually, yet how this exercise influences knee cartilage health is poorly understood. To address this question, quantitative magnetic resonance imaging (MRI) can be used to infer the biochemical ...
