Basic Calcium Phosphate Crystals Induce Osteoarthritis-Associated Changes in Chondrocyte Phenotype through Activation of Calcium/Calmodulin Kinase 2
Background/Purpose: Basic calcium phosphate crystals (BCP) are frequently found in osteoarthritic joints. Whether BCP crystal deposition is a cause or consequence of osteoarthritis (OA) pathology…Abstract Number: 214 • ACR/ARHP Annual Meeting 2015
Basic Calcium Phosphate Crystal Interactions with Tenocytes: An in Vitro Model of Calcific Tendinitis
Background/Purpose: Basic calcium phosphate (BCP) crystals frequently deposit in tendons and may cause an acute inflammatory syndrome of calcific tendinitis. Tenocytes are the stromal cells…Abstract Number: 1050 • ACR/ARHP Annual Meeting 2014
A Role for Purinergic Receptor Signalling in Basic Calcium Phosphate Crystal-Induced Inflammation
Background/Purpose: Basic calcium phosphate (BCP) crystals are uniquely associated with osteoarthritis (OA). They are found in the majority of affected joints and closely correlate with…Abstract Number: 50 • ACR/ARHP Annual Meeting 2013
Cartilage Matrix Remodeling and Activation Of Canonical Wnt- Signaling Precedes Calcification and OA-Like Changes In Mice
Background/Purpose: Calcification of cartilage is a common finding during osteoarthritis (OA) and is directly linked to the severity of cartilage degradation. We have found in…
