Abstract
Osteoarthritis is a degenerative disease involving joints and periarticular tissues in which the knee is the most affected joint. Knee Osteoarthritis (KOA) is characterized by inflammatory mediators increase, joint-space narrowing, osteophytes formation, pain and swelling. However, there is no scientific evidence on neuromuscular signaling pathways related to changes in KOA. The study hyp…

Abstract
Osteoarthritis is a degenerative disease involving joints and periarticular tissues in which the knee is the most affected joint. Knee osteoarthritis (KOA) is characterized by inflammatory mediators increase, joint-space narrowing, osteophytes formation, pain and swelling. KOA promotes weakness and muscle atrophy that accelerate the destruction of cartilage and modify functional movement.…
Morphological and neuromuscular junction signaling pathways changes in rats with knee osteoarthritis induced by anterior cruciate ligament transection, BP.MS
Abstract
Fatigue may lead to altered lower-limb biomechanics and increase the risk of anterior cruciate ligament injury (ACL) and patellofemoral pain (PFP). Hip extensors muscles act eccentrically controlling the trunk and lower limb movements during jump landing, however, no study evaluated the effect of eccentric fatigue of these muscles on the trunk and lower-limb biomechanics. Therefore, the o…
