Fibroblast growth factor 2: good or bad guy in the joint?Tonia L Vincent
Kennedy Institute of Rheumatology, University of Oxford, 65 Aspenlea Road, London, W6 8LH, UK
Arthritis Res Ther 13:127. 2011..This balance is dynamic and is altered in disease and following growth factor stimulation in vitro...
Basic fibroblast growth factor mediates transduction of mechanical signals when articular cartilage is loadedTonia L Vincent
The Kennedy Institute of Rheumatology, London, UK
Arthritis Rheum 50:526-33. 2004..To determine whether the basic fibroblast growth factor (bFGF) mediates signal transduction in articular cartilage in response to mechanical loading...
Basic fibroblast growth factor: an extracellular mechanotransducer in articular cartilage?T Vincent
Kennedy Institute of Rheumatology Division, Imperial College School of Medicine, London, UK
Biochem Soc Trans 34:456-7. 2006..We propose a novel mechanotransduction model, whereby pericellular bFGF, a short distance from the cell surface, becomes available to the cell surface tyrosine kinase receptors when articular cartilage is loaded...
FGF-2 is bound to perlecan in the pericellular matrix of articular cartilage, where it acts as a chondrocyte mechanotransducerT L Vincent
The Kennedy Institute of Rheumatology, Faculty of Medicine, Imperial College School of Science, Technology, and Medicine, London, UK
Osteoarthritis Cartilage 15:752-63. 2007..Arthritis Rheum 2004 Feb;50(2):526-33). Our objectives were to determine where FGF-2 was stored in articular cartilage, to which proteoglycan it was bound, and to elucidate its role in chondrocyte mechanotransduction...
Induction of interleukin-1 in articular cartilage by explantation and cuttingJohann Gruber
Imperial College School of Medicine, London, UK
Arthritis Rheum 50:2539-46. 2004..Biologically active IL-1alpha protein was detectable in cartilage lysates and was probably intracellular proIL-1alpha. We were unable to show that IL-1 was secreted by chondrocytes...
Is the response of cartilage to injury relevant to osteoarthritis?Tonia L Vincent
Arthritis Rheum 58:1207-10. 2008
