Journal Article
Wang, J., Roberts, S., Kuiper, J., Zhang, W., Garcia, J., Cui, Z., & Wright, K. (2020). Characterization of regional meniscal cell and chondrocyte phenotypes and chondrogenic differentiation with histological analysis in osteoarthritic donor-matched tissues. Scientific reports, 10, Article 21658. https://doi.org/10.1038/s41598-020-78757-6

Meniscus degeneration is closely related to the progression of knee osteoarthritis (OA). However, there is currently a lack of quantitative and objective metrics to assess OA meniscal cell phenotypes. In this study we investigated the phenotypic mark...

The Use of Technology in the Subcategorisation of Osteoarthritis: a Delphi Study Approach (2020)
Journal Article
Mennan, C., Hopkins, T., Channon, A., Elliott, M., Johnstone, B., Kadir, T., …Roberts, S. (2020). The Use of Technology in the Subcategorisation of Osteoarthritis: a Delphi Study Approach. Osteoarthritis and Cartilage, 2(3), Article 100081. https://doi.org/10.1016/j.ocarto.2020.100081

Objective This UK-wide OATech+ Network consensus study utilised a Delphi approach to discern levels of awareness across an expert panel regarding the role of existing and novel technologies in osteoarthritis research. To direct future cross-disciplin... Read More about The Use of Technology in the Subcategorisation of Osteoarthritis: a Delphi Study Approach.

Injected human umbilical cord-derived mesenchymal stromal cells do not appear to elicit an inflammatory response in a murine model of osteoarthritis (2020)
Journal Article
Perry, J., McCarthy, H., Bou-Gharios, G., van't Hof, R., Milner, P., Mennan, C., & Roberts, S. (2020). Injected human umbilical cord-derived mesenchymal stromal cells do not appear to elicit an inflammatory response in a murine model of osteoarthritis. Osteoarthritis and Cartilage Open, 2(2), 100044 - 100044. https://doi.org/10.1016/j.ocarto.2020.100044

Objective This study investigated the effect of hUC-MSCs on osteoarthritis (OA) progression in a xenogeneic model. Design Male, 10 week-old C57Bl/6 mice underwent sham surgery (n=15) or partial medial meniscectomy (PMM;n=76). 5x105 hUC-MSCs (from 3 d...
