    Notes: Abstract To determine the role of nitric oxide (NO) in the inhibition of aggrecan synthesis, we measured levels of NO produced by bovine chondrocytes from different layers of articular cartilage in the presence of interleukin-1 (IL-1). Chondrocytes from the superficial layer showed a large increase in NO synthesis in response to IL-1. Although chondrocytes from the deep layer also produced NO in response to IL-1, the amount was less than that from the superficial layer. Enhanced NO production evoked by IL-1 was accompanied by a significant inhibition of aggrecan synthesis. These data suggest that chondrocytes in both superficial and deep layer of articular cartilage inhibit aggrecan synthesis with IL-1 via NO production. In addition, superficial layer cells respond to lower amounts of IL-1 with respect to NO-production and inhibition of proteoglycan synthesis.

    Notes: Abstract. Objective: To examine the effect of hyaluronic acid (HA) on the induction of superoxide anion by IL-1 in chondrocytes. ¶Materials and Methods: Bovine articular chondrocytes were treated with different concentrations of IL-1. A chemiluminescent probe (L-012) was added to the medium and chemiluminescence detection was used to measure superoxide anion. ¶Results: IL-1 caused induction of superoxide anions in a dose-dependent manner. HA (10–100 〈mu〉g/ml) countered superoxide induction caused by 20 ng/ml of IL-1. ¶Conclusion: HA can afford protection against cartilage degradation, probably acting as a free-radical scavenger.

    Notes: Abstract. Objective: To examine the effect of hydrogen peroxide on chondrocyte metabolism.¶Materials and Methods: Bovine articular chondrocytes were used. Proteoglycan (PG) synthesis was measured with [35S] sulfate incorporation. For detection of apoptosis, the TdT-mediated dUTP-biotin nick end labeling (TUNEL) and annexin V assay were used. Extracellular-regulated protein kinase (ERK) activity was measured using a mitogen-activated protein kinase assay system.¶Results: Addition of hydrogen peroxide resulted in the inhibition of PG synthesis, apoptosis, and enhanced ERK activity.¶Conclusion: Hydrogen peroxide plays an important role in regulating the metabolism of chondrocytes.

    Notes: Abstract We investigated the importance of prostaglandin E2 (PGE2) release in interleukin-1 (IL-1)-induced inhibition of aggrecan synthesis by chondrocytes. Keratan sulfate (KS) production was measured in parallel with PGE2 release in chondrocytes. IL-1 inhibited KS production and stimulated PGE2 release. In the presence of PGE2, there was a dosedependent decrease in baseline KS production. Indomethacin and dexamethasone partially blocked the IL-1-induced PGE2 release while KS production recovered. Our results suggest that IL-1 inhibits KS production, in part, by stimulating the release of PGE2.

    Description / Table of Contents: Résumé Une étude morphologique et en IRM des terminaisons du tendon distal du m. semi-membraneux et des structures postérieures de la capsule du genou a été réalisée à partir de 42 genoux de cadavres. Un faisceau tendineux du m. semi-membraneux s'insérant sur la corne postérieure du ménisque latéral a été trouvée dans 43,2 % des genoux disséqués en plus des cinq faisceaux déjà connus : capsulaire, direct, antérieur et inférieur, ainsi que le lig. poplité oblique. Ce faisceau présentait trois types morphologiques : fin, large, rond. Quel que soit son type, sa traction vers l'arrière mobilisait le ménisque latéral. De ce fait, le m. semi-membraneux aurait également un rôle protecteur sur le ménisque latéral, identique à celui déjà décrit pour le ménisque médial lors de la flexion du genou. Lorsque le tendon du m. semi-membraneux présente un faisceau d'insertion sur la corne postérieure du ménisque latéral, il est difficile en IRM de différencier cette insertion d'une rupture du ménisque latéral et cela peut être une cause d'erreur diagnostique.
    Notes: Summary Forty-two cadaver knees were used for morphologic and MRI observations of the tendinous distal expansions of the semimembranosus m. and the posterior capsular structures of the knee. A tendinous branch of the semimembranosus m. inserting into the posterior horn of the lateral meniscus was found in 43.2% of the knees dissected, besides five already known insertional branches; capsular, direct, anterior and inferior, as well as the oblique popliteal ligament. The tendon had three morphologic types; thin, broad and round. All three types moved the lateral meniscus posteriorly when pulled on. Thus, the semimembranosus m. may also have a protective function for the lateral meniscus as well as the already well established function of protecting the medial meniscus in knee flexion. When a semimembranosus tendon attachment to the posterior horn of the lateral meniscus is present, its normal insertion is difficult to differentiate from a lateral meniscus tear in MRI and this may cause misdiagnosis.

    Notes: Abstract We found a left superficial ulnar artery in the cadaver of a Japanese woman. This anomalous vessel originated from the brachial artery at a site 55 mm distal to the inferior border of the teres major muscle and medial to the median nerve, ran downward and medially superficial to the forearm flexor muscles, and then downward to enter the hand. It formed superficial and deep palmar arches with the radial artery. The clinical importance of the anomalous ulnar artery is discussed.
