This study characterizes spontaneous OA in CD1 mice, showing progression from mild to severe disease with multi-tissue pathology, establishing them as a robust model for OA research.

This study quantifies postcranial skeletal shape variation in dogs, finding extreme disparity in Dachshunds and no significant link between bone shape and body mass or age.

This study identifies metabolomic biomarkers of meniscal injury in dogs with cranial cruciate ligament disease using 1H NMR spectroscopy of synovial fluid.

This study identifies age-related upregulation of miR-29a and miR-34a in murine cruciate ligaments and their association with collagen expression and inflammation pathways.

This study examines the effect of short-term high intensity exercise on the proteome of rat ACL and MCL, finding increased abundance of cytoskeletal and matrisomal proteins in the ACL but not the MCL.
