Heterogeneity of proteome dynamics between connective tissue phases of adult tendon (2020)
Journal Article
Choi, H., Simpson, D., Wang, D., Prescott, M., Pitsillides, A. A., Dudhia, J., …Thorpe, C. T. (2020). Heterogeneity of proteome dynamics between connective tissue phases of adult tendon. eLife, 9, https://doi.org/10.7554/elife.55262

Maintenance of connective tissue integrity is fundamental to sustain function, requiring protein turnover to repair damaged tissue. However, connective tissue proteome dynamics remain largely undefined, as do differences in turnover rates of individu...

Applied mechanical loading to mouse hindlimb acutely increases skeletal perfusion and chronically enhanced vascular porosity (2020)
Journal Article
Gohin, S., Javaheri, B., Hopkinson, M., Pitsillides, A. A., Arnett, T. R., & Chenu, C. (2020). Applied mechanical loading to mouse hindlimb acutely increases skeletal perfusion and chronically enhanced vascular porosity. Journal of Applied Physiology,

Blood supply is essential for osteogenesis, yet its relationship to load-related increases in bone mass is poorly defined. Herein, we aim to investigate the link between load-induced osteogenesis and the blood supply (bone perfusion and vascular poro...

Lasting organ-level bone mechanoadaptation is unrelated to local strain (2020)
Journal Article
Javaheri, B., Razi, H., Gohin, S., Wylie, S., Chang, Y. M., Salmon, P., …Pitsillides, A. A. (2020). Lasting organ-level bone mechanoadaptation is unrelated to local strain. Science Advances, 6(10), https://doi.org/10.1126/sciadv.aax8301

Bones adapt to mechanical forces according to strict principles predicting straight shape. Most bones are, however, paradoxically curved. To solve this paradox, we used computed tomography–based, four-dimensional imaging methods and computational ana...

Conditional deletion of E11/Podoplanin in bone protects against ovariectomy-induced increases in osteoclast formation and activity (2020)
Journal Article
Staines, K., Hopkinson, M., Dillon, S., Stephen, L., Fleming, R., Sophocleous, A., …Farquharson, C. (2020). Conditional deletion of E11/Podoplanin in bone protects against ovariectomy-induced increases in osteoclast formation and activity. Bioscience Reports, 40, https://doi.org/10.1042/BSR20190329

E11/Podoplanin (Pdpn) is implicated in early osteocytogenesis and the formation of osteocyte dendrites. This dendritic network is critical for bone modelling/remodelling, through the production of receptor activator of nuclear factor κ B (RANK)-ligan...
