β-tcp/collagen composite scaffolds facilitate bone remodeling in vertebral plate fusion Open
Purpose Beta-tricalcium phosphate (β-TCP) exhibits rapid osteogenesis and poor ductility. To overcome these disadvantages, we selected β-TCP/collagen for this study. Methods β-TCP/collagen and β-TCP were used as experimental and control gr…

Dickkopf‑3 and β‑catenin play opposite roles in the Wnt/β‑catenin pathway during the abnormal subchondral bone formation of human knee osteoarthritis Open
Osteoarthritis (OA) is condition which poses a main concern to the aging population and its severity is expected to increase with the increasing life expectancy. In the future, several possible targets for OA treatment need to be defined. …

β2-Adrenergic receptor expression in subchondral bone of patients with varus knee osteoarthritis Open
An important causative factor in osteoarthritis (OA) is the abnormal mechanical stress-induced bone remodeling of the subchondral bone. β2-adrenergic receptor (Adrb2) plays a major role in mechanical stresses that induce bone remodeling. T…
