Ding L, Heying E, Nicholson N, Stroud N, Homandberg G, Buckwalter J, et al.
Osteoarthritis Cartilage . 2010 Sep; 18(11):1509-17. PMID: 20813194
Objective: To determine the activation of Mitogen activated protein (MAP) kinases in and around cartilage subjected to mechanical damage and to determine the effects of their inhibitors on impaction-induced chondrocyte...
2.
Ding L, Guo D, Homandberg G
Osteoarthritis Cartilage . 2009 May; 17(10):1385-92. PMID: 19409294
Objective: Since fibronectin fragments (Fn-fs) enhance cartilage damage through integrins, the objective was to investigate the role of integrin linked kinases, focal adhesion kinase (FAK) and a soluble form of...
3.
Guo D, Ding L, Homandberg G
Inflamm Res . 2009 Feb; 58(3):161-9. PMID: 19190855
Objective And Design: We hypothesize that N-telopeptide (NT) and C-telopeptides (CT) of type II collagen can enhance proteinases and cause cartilage damage and have compared damaging activities to an extensively...

Ding L, Guo D, Homandberg G
Osteoarthritis Cartilage . 2008 Apr; 16(10):1253-62. PMID: 18396067
Objective: To define the role of mitogen activated protein (MAP) kinases in fibronectin fragment (Fn-f) mediated matrix metalloproteinase (MMP) upregulation and damage to bovine cartilage and to compare activities of...
5.
Homandberg G, Guo D, Ray L, Ding L
Osteoarthritis Cartilage . 2006 Apr; 14(8):793-806. PMID: 16581272
Objective: To test the effectiveness of glucosamine (GluNH(2))-HCl, chondroitin sulfate (CS) and mixtures in protecting cartilage exposed to fibronectin fragments (Fn-fs), an exposure known to enhance catabolic cytokines and matrix...
6.
Homandberg G, Ummadi V, Kang H
Inflamm Res . 2004 Dec; 53(10):534-43. PMID: 15597148
Objective And Design: To determine whether the ability of high molecular weight hyaluronan (HA) to reverse cartilage damage caused by specific catabolic mediators of cartilage damage, fibronectin fragments (Fn-fs), occurs...
7.
Pichika R, Homandberg G
Inflamm Res . 2004 Aug; 53(8):405-12. PMID: 15316672
Objective And Design: To determine whether fibronectin fragments (Fn-f) upregulate nitric oxide (NO) and inducible NO synthetase (iNOS) levels in explants and whether iNOS inhibitors block Fn-f mediated cartilage damage...
8.
Homandberg G, Ummadi V, Kang H
Inflamm Res . 2004 Aug; 53(8):396-404. PMID: 15316671
Objective And Design: To test whether hyaluronan (HA) restores proteoglycan (PG) in fibronectin fragment (Fn-f) damaged cartilage through activities of insulin-like growth factor 1 (IGF-1). Material: Bovine cartilage explants were...

Dang Y, Cole A, Homandberg G
Osteoarthritis Cartilage . 2003 Jun; 11(7):538-47. PMID: 12814617
Objective: To compare the response of knee and ankle cartilages to fibronectin fragments (Fn-f) in terms of kinetics of matrix proteoglycan (PG) degradation and synthesis, since previous data had shown...

Williams J, Zhang J, Kang H, Ummadi V, Homandberg G
Osteoarthritis Cartilage . 2002 Dec; 11(1):44-9. PMID: 12505486
Objective: Intraarticular Na-Hyaluronate (HA) exerts a beneficial effect on adolescent rabbits after fibronectin fragment (Fn-f) mediated cartilage injury. We extended our studies to a population of rabbits which have reached...
