  • Research Review Fibrocartilage
    J. Anat. (1990), 171, pp. 1-15 1 Printed in Great Britain Research Review Fibrocartilage M. BENJAMIN AND E. J. EVANS Department of Anatomy, University of Wales College of Cardiff, PO Box 900, Cardif CF1 3 YF, Wales Fibrocartilage has long been a neglected tissue that is too often viewed as a poor relation of hyaline cartilage. It failed to achieve the status of a tissue with the early histologists, but it is beginning to come of age, for modem techniques are revealing some exciting secrets about fibrocartilage in knee joint menisci and intervertebral discs in particular. Yet there has never been any general review on fibrocartilage, and workers concerned with the tissue in one organ rarely consider it in another. Consequently, we lack any global picture that would encourage the spread of interest in the tissue and the effective exchange of ideas. Our review deals largely with the white fibrocartilage of standard texts and for reasons of space excludes yellow elastic cartilage. We have concentrated on fibrocartilage as a tissue rather than fibrocartilages as organs. HISTORICAL CONSIDERATIONS The most important work on cartilage in the older literature is that of Schaffer (1930). His monograph is a thorough, comparative account of cartilage and related tissues throughout the animal kingdom. The reader interested in fibrocartilage must also study Schaffer's account of chondroid tissue, for some tissues that would now be regarded as fibrocartilage were viewed by Schaffer as hyaline-cell chondroid tissue. He had a narrow vision of 'true' cartilage and called tissues where the cells were not shrunken in lacunae, 'chondroid'.

  • Autologous Matrix-Induced Chondrogenesis and Generational Development of Autologous Chondrocyte Implantation
    Autologous Matrix-Induced Chondrogenesis and Generational Development of Autologous Chondrocyte Implantation Hajo Thermann, MD, PhD,* Christoph Becher, MD,† Francesca Vannini, MD, PhD,‡ and Sandro Giannini, MD‡ The treatment of osteochondral defects of the talus is still controversial. Matrix-guided treatment options for covering of the defect with a scaffold have gained increasing popularity. Cellular-based autologous chondrocyte implantation (ACI) has undergone a generational development overcoming the surgical drawbacks related to the use of the periosteal flap over time. As ACI is associated with high costs and limited in availability, autologous matrix-induced chondrogenesis, a single-step procedure combining microfracturing of the subchondral bone to release bone marrow mesenchymal stem cells in combination with the coverage of an acellular matrix, has gained increasing popularity. The purposes of this report are to present the arthroscopic approach of the matrix-guided autologous matrix-induced chondrogenesis technique and generational development of ACI in the treatment of chondral and osteochon- dral defects of the talus.

  • Variations in the Quantity of Uncalcified Fibrocartilage at the Insertions of the Extrinsic Calf Muscles in the Foot
    J. Anat. (1995) 186, pp. 417-421, with 4 figures Printed in Great Britain 417 Short Report Variations in the quantity of uncalcified fibrocartilage at the insertions of the extrinsic calf muscles in the foot P. FROWEN AND M. BENJAMIN School of Molecular and Medical Biosciences (Anatomy Unit), University of Wales College of Cardiff, UK (Accepted 13 October 1994) ABSTRACT It has been suggested that fibrocartilage at entheses (tendon-bone junctions) prevents collagen fibres bending at the hard tissue interface. We have investigated this function by exploring the relationship between the presence or amount of fibrocartilage at the attachments of the major extrinsic muscles in the foot, and the extent to which these tendons bend near their entheses during movement. The tendons were taken from each of 5 formalin-fixed dissecting room cadavers and prepared for routine histology, and sections were collected systematically throughout the blocks. Tendons that attached to the tarsus and metatarsus had fibrocartilaginous entheses, but those attached to the phalanges had fibrous entheses. In all tarsal and metatarsal tendons, the fibrocartilage was significantly thicker (P < 0.05) in the deepest part of the enthesis. Here the greatest amount of fibrocartilage was in the Achilles tendon (mean thickness + S.E.M.: 1560 + 161 gim). There were moderate amounts at the medial cuneiform attachment of tibialis anterior (533 + 82 gm), peroneus brevis (472 + 64 gm) and tibialis posterior (454 +26 gm), small quantities at the first metatarsal attachment of tibialis anterior (104+ 14 gm) and peroneus longus (21 + 8 pm), but only traces at the attachments of the flexor and extensor tendons of the phalanges.

  • Cartilage Is a Special Type of CT Has a Firm Pliable Matrix That Can Resist Mechanical Stress, Act As a Shock Abso
    Cartilage - Cartilage is a special type of CT has a firm pliable matrix that can resist mechanical stress, act as a shock absorber. - Cartilage together with long bone form the skeleton and support the body. - Cartilage form the fetal skeleton. - Cartilage is non-vascular structure and not supplied with nervous or lymphatic tissues. Composition: Like all connective tissues, cartilage is composed of cells, fibers, and ground substance. The extracellular matrix predominates and determines cartilage's mechanical properties. Type II collagen is a characteristic cartilage matrix component. - Cartilage is composed of:- - Cells ------ Chondroblasts Chndrocytes Chondrogenic cells - Fibers ---- Collagen fibers Elastic fibers - Matrix ----- Proteoglycans Glycosaminoglycans Cartilage cells 1- Stem cells (chondrogenic cells):- Most cartilage is enveloped by a layer of dense connective tissue, the perichondrium, which contains the vascular supply and fibroblast-like stem cells from which additional chondrocytes may arise. - They are derived from mesenchymal cells. - They are spindle shaped cells with ovoid nucleus, small Golgi, few mitochondria, and rER. 2- Chondroblasts :- - They are derived from mesenchymal cells within the center of chondrofication, or from chondrogenic cells. - They are ovoid, basophilic cells, rich with rER, well developed Golgi, numerous mitochondria, and more secretory vesicles. - The cells synthesize the fibers and the matrix . 1 3- Chondrocytes :- - They are chondroblasts that are surrounded by matrix (within lacuna). - They are ovoid near the periphery, and more rounded deeper in the cartilage. - The cells have eccentric large nuclei, with prominent nucleoli, and the usual cell organelles. - The cells synthesize and secrete the fibers and ground substance. Types of Cartilage There are three types of cartilage, differ in their appearance and mechanical properties, due to differences in the composition of their extracellular matrix, and the type of fibers.

  • 2015 AACA Annual Meeting Program
    June 9 – 12, 2015 | Henderson, Nevada President’s Report June 9-12, 2015 Green Valley Ranch Resort & Casino Henderson, NV Another year has quickly passed and I have been asked to summarize achievements/threats to the Association for our meeting program booklet. Much of this will be recanted in my introductory message on the opening day of the meeting in Henderson. As President, I am representing Council in recognizing the work of those individuals not already recognized in our standing committee reports that you will find in this program. One of our most active ad hoc committees has been the one looking into creating an endowment for the association through member and vendor sponsorships. Our past president, Anne Agur, has chaired this committee and deserves accolades for having the committee work hard and produce the materials you have either already seen, or will be introduced to in Henderson. The format was based on that used by many clinical organizations. It allows support at many different levels, the financial income from which is being invested for student awards and travel stipends. Our ambitious 5 year goal is $100,000. I hope that you will join me in thinking seriously about supporting this initiative - at whichever level you feel comfortable with. Every dollar goes to the endowment. In October, Council ratified the creation of our new standing committee - Brand Promotion and Outreach. This committee was formed by fusing the two ad hoc committees struck by Anne Agur when she was President. Last year our new branding was highly visible in Orlando and we want to use this momentum to continue raising the profile of the Association at many different types of events within and outside North America.

Levingstone 1,2 and Fergal J. O’Brien 1,2,* 1 Royal College of Surgeons in Ireland, 123 St. Stephen’s Green, Dublin 2, Ireland; E-Mails: [email protected] (A.M.); [email protected] (T.J.L.) 2 Trinity Centre for Bioengineering, Trinity College Dublin, Dublin 2, Ireland * Author to whom correspondence should be addressed; E-Mail: [email protected]; Tel: +353-1402-2149; Fax: +353-1402-2355. Received: 7 January 2013; in revised form: 6 February 2013 / Accepted: 16 February 2013 / Published: 22 February 2013 Abstract: Articular cartilage is a unique tissue owing to its ability to withstand repetitive compressive stress throughout an individual’s lifetime. However, its major limitation is the inability to heal even the most minor injuries. There still remains an inherent lack of strategies that stimulate hyaline-like articular cartilage growth with appropriate functional properties. Recent scientific advances in tissue engineering have made significant steps towards development of constructs for articular cartilage repair. In particular, research has shown the potential of biomaterial physico-chemical properties significantly influencing the proliferation, differentiation and matrix deposition by progenitor cells. Accordingly, this highlights the potential of using such properties to direct the lineage towards which such cells follow. Moreover, the use of soluble growth factors to enhance the bioactivity and regenerative capacity of biomaterials has recently been adopted by researchers in the field of tissue engineering.
