| Abstract | Background Arthrofibrosis is a painful and restraining complication that occurs after about 10% of total knee arthroplasty and cruciate ligament surgery. The pathogenesis of arthrofibrosis has not yet been fully understood. Stress signals stimulate immune cells, and fibroblast differentiates into myofibroblast, which produce a large amount of collagen. Xylosyltransferases also appear to be involved in these pathways. They catalyze proteoglycan biosynthesis, which is involved in tissue remodeling and myofibroblast differentiation. The aim of this study was to investigate the relationship between the disease arthrofibrosis and the expression of the two isoforms of xylosyltransferases I and II. Methods Tissue samples from 14 patients with arthrofibrosis were compared with tissue samples from seven healthy controls. The xylosyltransferases were detected by immunohistochemistry. The tissues were divided into four different areas of interest: vessels, synovialis, cell-poor and cell-rich fibrosis, or cell-poor and cell-rich areas in the control group. A quantification of the results was performed by modification of the immunoreactive score according to Remmele and Stegner. Results Xylosyltransferase I was expressed in the various tissue types at varying rates. Xylosyltransferase I expression was considerably and significantly stronger than that of xylosyltransferase II. The following sequences of xylosyltransferase I and xylosyltransferase II expression were determined as follows: vessels >> cell-rich fibrosis > cell-poor fibrosis > synovialis. A positive correlation between the number of positive fibroblasts and the immunoreactive scoring system (IRS) was documented. Conclusions The significant positive correlation of xylosyltransferase -I expression with increasing number of fibroblasts demonstrates a high myofibroblast differentiation rate, which implies a gradual event as the pathogenesis of arthrofibrosis. |

National Digital Library of India (NDLI) is a virtual repository of learning resources which is not just a repository with search/browse facilities but provides a host of services for the learner community. It is sponsored and mentored by Ministry of Education, Government of India, through its National Mission on Education through Information and Communication Technology (NMEICT). Filtered and federated searching is employed to facilitate focused searching so that learners can find the right resource with least effort and in minimum time. NDLI provides user group-specific services such as Examination Preparatory for School and College students and job aspirants. Services for Researchers and general learners are also provided. NDLI is designed to hold content of any language and provides interface support for 10 most widely used Indian languages. It is built to provide support for all academic levels including researchers and life-long learners, all disciplines, all popular forms of access devices and differently-abled learners. It is designed to enable people to learn and prepare from best practices from all over the world and to facilitate researchers to perform inter-linked exploration from multiple sources. It is developed, operated and maintained from Indian Institute of Technology Kharagpur.
