Research Abstract |
It is very important to understand how the alteration in mechanical load due to change of alignment influences articular cartilage of knee joint. In this study we could not establish the animal model that had an onset of osteoarthritis (OA) of knee joint by change of knee alignment. However, we found that OA changes of the patellofemoral joint in STR/OrtCrlj mice that spontaneously developed knee OA may be caused by internal tibial torsion.
