Characterization of regional meniscal cell and chondrocyte phenotypes and chondrogenic differentiation with histological analysis in osteoarthritic donor-matched tissues (2020)
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...

Routinely Measured Hematological Markers Can Help to Predict American Spinal Injury Association Impairment Scale Scores after Spinal Cord Injury (2020)
Journal Article
Harrington, G. M. B., Cool, P., Hulme, C., Osman, A., Roy Chowdhury, J., Kumar, N., …Wright, K. (2020). Routinely Measured Hematological Markers Can Help to Predict American Spinal Injury Association Impairment Scale Scores after Spinal Cord Injury. Journal of Neurotrauma, 38(3), https://doi.org/10.1089/neu.2020.7144

Neurological outcomes following spinal cord injury (SCI) are currently difficult to predict. Whilst the initial American Spinal Injury Association (ASIA) Impairment Scale (AIS) grade can give an estimate of outcome, the high remaining degree of uncer...

The synovial fluid from patients with focal cartilage defects contains mesenchymal stem/stromal cells and macrophages with pro- and anti-inflammatory phenotypes (2020)
Journal Article
Mennan, Hulme, & Wright, K. (2020). The synovial fluid from patients with focal cartilage defects contains mesenchymal stem/stromal cells and macrophages with pro- and anti-inflammatory phenotypes. Osteoarthritis and Cartilage Open, 1-8. https://doi.org/10.1016/j.ocarto.2020.100039

Objective The synovial fluid (SF) of patients with focal cartilage defects contains a population of poorly characterised cells that could have pathophysiological implications in early osteoarthritis and joint tissue repair. We have examined the cells...
