Creation of monosodium iodoacetate-induced model of osteoarthritis in rabbit knee joint

According to the OARSI OA cartilage histopathological system, the control knee without MIA [Figure A]1 and [Figure A]2, 2.5 mg of MIA/250 μl and 3 mg of MIA/50 μl showed no change. The commonly described animal model of OA involves transection of anterior cruciate ligament in the knee joint (mechani...

Description
Summary:According to the OARSI OA cartilage histopathological system, the control knee without MIA [Figure A]1 and [Figure A]2, 2.5 mg of MIA/250 μl and 3 mg of MIA/50 μl showed no change. The commonly described animal model of OA involves transection of anterior cruciate ligament in the knee joint (mechanical model) and the ensuing mechanical instability results in cartilage damage [2],[3]. [...]intra-articular injection of MIA into rabbit knee joints can be used to create an experimental model of OA.
