Associations of Collateral Ligaments with chemical compounds

  • Fracture of the medial humeral condyle in children is an epiphyseal injury, and it is probably caused by a valgus force incurred with the elbow extended, the origin of the flexor muscles and medial collateral ligament avulsing and rotating the condyle [17].
  • Increased expression of the beta 1, alpha 5, and alpha v integrin adhesion receptor subunits occurs coincident with remodeling of stress-deprived rabbit anterior cruciate and medial collateral ligaments [18].
  • Characterization of a large chondroitin sulfate proteoglycan present in bovine collateral ligament [19].
  • Our findings suggest that there is no early deleterious effect of a short course of ibuprofen on the mechanical behavior of medial collateral ligaments [20].
  • Effects of a delayed steroid injection on ligament healing using a rabbit medial collateral ligament model [15].
 

Gene context of Collateral Ligaments

  • These findings indicate that the large chondrotin sulfate proteoglycan synthesized by bovine collateral ligament may be a versican-like proteoglycan which exhibited the potential to form like protein-stabilized complexes [19].
  • In the present study, the expression of several characteristic biochemical markers of ligaments, such as Six1, Scleraxis, aggrecan, and type I collagen in primary cultures of adult rat medial collateral ligament (MCL) cells was determined [12].
  • CONCLUSION: Our data demonstrate that a single local application of bFGF promoted early formation of repair tissue in injured medial collateral ligaments [21].
  • The most significant findings were the correlation of free fluid around the medial collateral ligament (MCL) with avulsion of the femoral attachment of the medial patellofemoral ligament (MPFL) and the presence of avulsed fragments of bone from the medial border of the patella [22].
  • Meniscal injuries were found in 41% of Group I patients (isolated ACL injuries) and in 54% of Group II patients (injured ACL/collateral ligaments) [23].
