Fig. 1 A. Schematic drawing of the rat knee joint after ACLT surgery (image was taken from reference7). Areas surrounded by dotted lines are central locations of cartilage degeneration in the medial tibia plateau (MTP) and medial femoral condyle (MFC). Black, open, and striped areas represent peripheral cartilage areas of chondrocyte death in the lateral and medial femur. B. Histological section of the MTP and the MFC of a rat with OA lesions 3 weeks after MMT surgery. For evaluation, the tibial plateau is divided into three zones of equal width using an ocular micrometer or a ruler on a photograph, with zone 1 (Z1) on the outside (medial edge of joint) and zone 3 (Z3) on the inside (adjacent to the central cruciate ligaments). Zones are delineated by red lines. The projected cartilage surface and the tidemark are delineated by green tracing.

Fig. 2 Macroscopic features of Evan’s blue-stained tibial plateaus in the rat MMT model (image was taken from reference4). Tibial plateau from A. an unoperated rat, and B. a rat that had undergone MMT 3 weeks before. Cartilage lesions are apparent on the MTP as crescent-shaped, Evan’s blue-stained area (arrows).

Fig. 3 #1 Cartilage matrix loss width. Histological sections of the MFC and the MTP of unoperated rats (A.) and rats with OA lesions at 1 (B.), 3 (C.) and 13 (D.) weeks following MMT. For evaluation, the widths of collagen matrix loss are measured in relation to the depth of full-thickness non-calcified cartilage matrix. Widths may be measured with a computerized imaging system, a reticule, or on photographs, as long as accurate calibration/micron bar references are utilized. These widths can be tabulated to provide a visual reflection of the lesion architecture and comparisons can be made for these continuous variables in multiple statistical tests. In general, comparisons between the widths at 50% depth of matrix loss across treatment groups and time points are the most sensitive of all of the depth measures at reflecting changes. The width of lesions is measured at 0%, 50% and 100% depths.

Fig. 4 #2 Cartilage degeneration score. Histological sections of the medial joint compartment of a rat with OA lesions following MMT. For evaluation, the tibial plateau is divided into three zones of equal width (marked by red vertical lines), with zone 1 (Z1) on the outside (medial edge of joint) and zone 3 (Z3) on the inside (adjacent to the central cruciate ligaments). The area of non-viable cartilage (significant chondrocyte loss but with collagen retention) is indicated by yellow tracing; the entire projected cartilage area is delineated by green tracing. A. Nearly all (99%) of the cartilage matrix has been lost or severely damaged in Z1 (grade of 5), 75% in Z2 (grade of 4), and 13% in Z3 (grade of 2). B. In this example of less severe general cartilage degeneration, 61% of the cartilage matrix has been lost or severely damaged in Z1 (grade of 4), 49% in Z2 (grade of 3), and there is no loss of cartilage matrix in Z3 (grade of 0).

Fig. 5 #3 and #4 Total and significant cartilage degeneration width. #3. The total cartilage degeneration width (black horizontal line) represents the total extent of the tibial plateau affected by any type of degeneration (matrix fibrillation/loss, PG loss with or without chondrocyte death). The measurement is taken at the projected cartilage surface from the outer edge of the tibial plateau, adjacent to the osteophyte (outer red line), to the point at which the cartilage is normal (inner red line). #4. The significant cartilage degeneration width (yellow horizontal line) represents the width of tibial cartilage in which 50% or more of the original cartilage thickness is seriously compromised by collagen matrix loss or loss of 50% of chondrocytes (and concurrent PG) loss. A. Example of tibial plateau with large total and significant tibial cartilage degeneration width and B. example with smaller cartilage degeneration width.

Fig. 6 #5 Zonal depth ratio of lesions. The lesion depth ratio is calculated by dividing the depth of the lesion (yellow line) by the thickness of the cartilage from projected articular surface to tidemark (black vertical line). These measurements are taken at the midpoint of each zone using an ocular micrometer. If care is taken to consistently measure the total depth (cartilage thickness) in the same location in each section, this parameter can also be used effectively with anabolic treatments to document cartilage thickening and increased matrix. Examples of A. high and B. low depth ratio of lesion.

Fig. 7 #6 Osteophyte score. The largest osteophyte in the section (typically in the tibia) is measured from base to edge at the thickest point (red line) and then given a score based on that measurement. A. Large osteophyte. This section is from a SD rat after MMT, whereas all other sections shown here are from Lewis rats. Cartilage cysts (arrow) are common in aged SD rats and rarely seen in Lewis rats. B. Small osteophyte. Osteoarthritis and Cartilage 2010 18, S24-S34DOI: (10.1016/j.joca.2010.05.030) Copyright © 2010 Osteoarthritis Research Society International Terms and Conditions

Fig. 8 #7 Calcified cartilage and subchondral bone damage. A. Grade 0 – normal calcified cartilage and subchondral bone, however, slight increase in basophilia of the calcified cartilage in the central load-bearing area of the joint (red arrow). B. Grade 1 – increased basophilia at the tidemark (red arrow) and minimal focal marrow changes (black arrows). Increased thickening of subchondral bone subjacent to the area of greatest cartilage lesion severity is observed in grade 1 and all higher grades. C. Grade 2 – increased basophilia at the tidemark (red arrow), minimal to mild focal fragmentation of calcified cartilage of the tidemark, and mesenchymal change in marrow involving 1/4 of subchondral region under lesion. D. Grade 3 – increased basophilia at the tidemark (red arrow), mild to marked multifocal fragmentation of calcified cartilage, and mesenchymal change in marrow of up to 3/4 of total area. Areas of marrow chondrogenesis are evident. E. Grade 4 – increased basophilia at the tidemark (red arrows), marked to severe fragmentation of calcified cartilage, and marrow mesenchymal changes involving up to 3/4 of the area. Articular cartilage has collapsed into the epiphysis (see definite depression in surface cartilage). Basophilic areas under the area of collapse are a result of chondrogenesis in the bone marrow. F. Grade 5 – marked to severe fragmentation of calcified cartilage and subchondral bone with collapse of cartilage and some chondrogenesis in the marrow (red arrows). Marrow mesenchymal changes involve up to 3/4 of the area and a large bone cyst (black arrow) is present. Articular cartilage has collapsed into the epiphysis to a depth of greater than 250μm from the tidemark with associated bone resorption.

Fig. 9 #9 Medial joint capsule repair. A. Normal medial joint capsule (no surgery). B. Medial joint capsule from a vehicle-treated animal 3 weeks after MMT surgery. C. Medial joint capsule from an animal treated with compound that enhanced repair 3 weeks after MMT surgery. D. Medial joint capsule from an animal treated with compound that inhibited repair 3 weeks after MMT surgery. Thickness of the medial joint capsule is measured as indicated by the black bar.
