Project description:Self-administered questionnaire survey to determine the presence or absence of joint pain during bevacizumab treatment for lung, ovarian, colorectal cancers.
The principal end-point is the frequency of arthralgia after 6 months of treatment with Bevacizumab.
Project description:To investigate the functions of ncRNAs in temporomandibular joint osteoarthritis, we established temporomandibular joint osteoarthritis model induced by unilateral anterior crossbite. We then performed gene expression profiling analysis using data obtained from RNA-seq of condylar cartilage at 8 weeks of modeling.
Project description:Adult mammalian synovial joints have limited regenerative capacity, where injuries heal with mechanically inferior fibrotic joint tissues. Here we developed a unilateral whole-joint resection model in adult zebrafish to advance our understanding of how to stimulate regrowth of native synovial joint tissues. Using single-cell RNA sequencing, we profile RNA expression from live-sorted jaw joint cells throughout the time course of joint regeneration (1 to 70 days-post-joint-resection (dpjr)). Our findings reveal latent molecular and cellular programs within the adult skeleton that are deployed to regenerate a complex joint with lubricated articular cartilage.
