Area of Science:

  • Orthopedics
  • Biomechanical Engineering
  • Animal Models

Background:

  • Femoroacetabular impingement (FAI) is a significant cause of hip pain with unclear pathogenesis.
  • Existing animal models for studying FAI mechanisms are limited.

Purpose of the Study:

  • To establish a reproducible rabbit model of FAI.
  • To evaluate bone deformity, labral, and cartilage injury induced by mechanical and exercise stimulation.

Main Methods:

  • New Zealand White rabbits underwent surgical implantation of polylactic acid scaffolds on the acetabular rim, followed by treadmill training.
  • Micro-CT and histological analyses assessed bone deformities and cartilage integrity.
  • Immunofluorescence and nanoindentation evaluated molecular markers and mechanical properties of joint tissues.

Main Results:

  • The FAI model demonstrated significant bone deformities and cartilage damage compared to controls.
  • Reduced proteoglycan deposition and altered expression of SOX9, ACAN, RUNX2, and CD31 were observed in the FAI group.
  • Mechanical testing revealed decreased Young's modulus in the labrum and femoral head cartilage.

Conclusions:

  • A stable and reproducible rabbit model of FAI was successfully established using combined mechanical and exercise stimulation.
  • This model provides a valuable platform for investigating FAI pathogenesis.
  • The established model offers a foundation for developing early, targeted treatments for FAI.
