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...

Osteoarthritis-related nociceptive behaviour following mechanical joint loading correlates with cartilage damage (2020)
Journal Article
Ter Heegde, F., Luiz, A. P., Santana-Varela, S., Magnusdottir, R., Hopkinson, M., Chang, Y. M., Poulet, B., Fowkes, R. C., Wood, J. N., & Chenu, C. (2020). Osteoarthritis-related nociceptive behaviour following mechanical joint loading correlates with cartilage damage. Osteoarthritis and Cartilage, 28(3), 383-395. https://doi.org/10.1016/j.joca.2019.12.004

In osteoarthritis (OA), the pain-structure relationship remains complex and poorly understood. Here, we used the mechanical joint loading (MJL) model of OA to investigate both knee pathology and nociceptive behaviour.
