Animal ModelsNOTE 1This section provides a description of the options to considerin determining the appropriate

26、animal model and cartilage defect size andlocation.5.1 Joint Size and Load:5.1.1 A high proportion of hyaline cartilage injuries inhumans occur in the knee joint predominantly in the medialcompartment (that is, medial femoral condyle and tibial pla-teau). Accordingly, the knee joint is commonly used

27、 forassessing cartilage repair/regeneration in animal models.5.1.2 The knee is a complex diarthrodial joint involvingprimarily two separate articulations; femoropatellar and femo-rotibial. The articular surfaces of the distal femur and proximaltibia are incongruent and contain wedge shaped fibrocart

28、ilag-enous menisci separating the articular surfaces. Contact be-tween the cartilage of the femoral condyles and that of thetibial plateau occurs at the innermost central region of eachmedial and lateral meniscus. Mechanical load is distributeddirectly from the femur to the tibia as well as indirect

29、ly throughthe menisci. The patella articulates with the femoral condylewithin the trochlear groove.5.1.3 Significant variability exists between animal specieswith respect to the weight of the animal, joint anatomy, and gaitthereby influencing joint kinetics, range of motion, and me-chanical forces o

30、n joint surfaces. These factors influence thethickness and distribution of articular cartilage within the jointsas well as macromolecular content, distribution, and collagenarchitecture. These factors play a significant role in theresponse to injury or disease of articular cartilage (see Table 1).Th

34、510525.1.4 Mechanical load has been shown to affect cartilagerepair.Amongst the mechanobiological factors, the intermittenthydrostatic pressure and shear stresses play an important rolein modulating cartilage development, and maintenance as wellas cartilage degeneration (4, 5). The impact of mechani

35、cal loadextent or duration on the implanted device, surrounding nativearticular cartilage, and underlying bone varies depending onthe anatomic site and the position of the joint (6). The defectsite chosen to evaluate implants should, therefore, factor theimpact of mechanical load on the performance

36、of the implant.5.1.5 It is suggested that the gait and stance of a particularspecies be considered when factoring the extent of exposure ofthe implant site to stress during standing and motion.5.1.6 The extent of compressive and shear forces in thefemoral condyles, trochlear groove, and tibial plate

37、au differsignificantly as do differing anatomic sites of the same articularsurface.5.1.7 It is recommended that an appropriate species andanatomic site be chosen having articular surfaces and thicknesssufficiently large to adequately investigate and optimize theformulation, design, dimensions, and a

38、ssociated instrumenta-tion envisaged for human use.5.1.8 Larger animals are more appropriate for studyingrepair in joints that have greater articular cartilage surface areasand a thickness that more closely approximates that of humans.5.1.9 Larger defect dimensions generally require a methodof fixat

39、ion to secure the implant and thereby reduce implantdislocation. The method of implant immobilization can nega-tively impact both the surrounding host tissue and repair tissue.Accordingly, the difference in the design of the test device insmall animals which generally do not require fixation should

40、befactored into the interpretation of results with respect topredictability of outcomes in larger animal models and humansrequiring fixation.5.1.10 For each species, a critical size defect is defined asthe minimum defect dimension (in diameter) that the animal isincapable of repairing without interv

41、ention. The diameter ofcritical defects generally differ for each species and should beconsidered carefully when designing the implant dimensionsand method of fixation.5.2 Handling:5.2.1 Exposure of implants to extreme and highly variablemechanical forces as a result of jumping, running, hyperexten-

42、sion, or hyperflexion of the joint can lead to increasedvariability in outcome measures.5.2.2 Care should be used to reduce stress or other factorsthat cause behaviors associated with rapid or extreme, or both,movements of joints.5.3 Gender:5.3.1 Due to the impact of circulating steroids on cartilag

43、eand bone metabolism and regeneration, the choice of gendershould be considered. Animals in lactation should not be used.5.3.2 It is recommended that the gender be the same withinthe cohort.5.4 Age:5.4.1 Bone and cartilage undergo dynamic changes in me-tabolism and remodeling during growth. Due to t

44、he impact ofthese physiologic processes on tissue repair, the age of aparticular species should be chosen to exceed the age ofskeletal maturity. The cohorts should have fused epiphysealgrowth plates. Skeletal maturity varies between species andcan be generally determined radiographically if necessar

45、y.5.4.2 Older animals have a higher propensity for osteopeniaand degenerative joint diseases such as osteoarthritis, and havea decreased capacity to repair articular cartilage defects. Ifspecific conditions are considered important for the intendeddevice assessment, then an appropriate model should

46、be used.5.4.3 The mesenchymal stem cell pool, growth factor re-sponsiveness, and metabolic activity of cells generally de-creases with age (7). Thus, reparative processes that aredependent on the number and activity of native cells may bepartially compromised in older animals.5.5 Study Duration:5.5.

47、1 The length of the study depends on the stage of devicedevelopment, the species used, the size of the defect, andcomposition and design of implant.5.5.2 In small animals, small defects implanted for 6 to 8weeks provide information regarding residence time of implantand fixation device as well as th

48、e type of repair.5.5.3 Using larger animals, study periods of 8 to 12 weeksare limited to providing information regarding the biocompat-ibility, early cellular responsiveness, and the persistence andcondition of the implant within the defect.5.5.4 Periods of 6 to 12 months are generally necessary to

49、gain confidence in the extent of success in the repair orregeneration of articular cartilage based on histologic andbiochemical outcome measures, including the interface withadjacent cartilage and subchondral bone, as well as theopposing articular surface.5.6 Rabbit ModelThe femoral condyle and trochleargroove are most frequently used as sites for evaluation ofimplants in rabbits (8-14). The use of the patella has beeninvestigated as well (15, 16).5.6.1 The use of rabbits is generally more economicalcompared to larger species.5.6.2 Due to the smal
