Summary
Osteoarthritis (OA) mechanisms remain unclear, hindering effective treatments. This review details various in vitro and in vivo OA models crucial for understanding disease progression and evaluating therapies.
Area of Science:
- Biomedical Engineering
- Cell Biology
- Orthopedics
Context:
- Osteoarthritis (OA) pathogenesis is not fully understood.
- Current treatments do not halt OA progression.
- Developing accurate OA models is critical for research.
Purpose:
- To review and characterize diverse in vitro and in vivo osteoarthritis models.
- To provide a reference for selecting appropriate OA models.
- To aid in understanding OA mechanisms and treatment efficacy.
Summary:
- Various in vitro models (2D/3D cell cultures, bioreactors) and in vivo models (spontaneous, genetically modified, invasive, non-invasive) are used to study osteoarthritis.
- These models simulate pathological changes at different stages.
- They are essential for investigating disease mechanisms and assessing treatment outcomes.
Impact:
- Facilitates the selection of suitable models for osteoarthritis research.
- Supports the advancement of understanding OA etiology and pathology.
- Aids in the development of more effective OA treatments.
