SnoRNA dysregulation is a driver of chondrocyte ageing and contributes to osteoarthritis
University of Liverpool
Institute of Ageing and Chronic Disease Department of Musculoskeletal Biology
Background. Osteoarthritis is a leading cause of disability especially in our ageing society affecting 10% men and 18% women over 60 years old becoming one of the major health problems in the western world. Read more

Translating protection of cell-surface receptor LRP1 into potential disease-modifying therapies for osteoarthritis.
University of Liverpool
Institute of Ageing and Chronic Disease Department of Musculoskeletal Biology
Osteoarthritis (OA) causes pain and disability and is the most prevalent age-related joint disorder worldwide but there are no disease-modifying drugs available. Read more
Development of a gene activated construct targeting proinflammatory signalling to promote zonal regeneration of osteoarthritic cartilage
Current treatments fail to effectively repair cartilage and typically only delay the injury associated joint degeneration that leads to post-traumatic osteoarthritis (PT-OA). Read more
St George’s, University of London PhD Studentships programme
We are excited to announce a new PhD programme at St George's, University of London for 2023. The new programme offers up to 4 studentships, from a range of projects covering a number of research disciplines across. Read more
The energetics of the osteochondral junction during non-equilibrium states of loading: beyond the surface – bone deep.
This project intends to evaluate the dynamics of articular cartilage. There are two key components. (i) evaluate energy transfer between articular cartilage and the subchondral bone in osteochondral cores. Read more
Development of micro-incubator OCT/ OCE bioreactor system to engineer a robust musculoskeletal tissue model
Achieving adequate musculoskeletal tissue healing is one of the most challenging factors in the repair of orthopaedic tissues. The problem of hard-to-soft tissue fixation is the major cause of failure of replacement grafts and leads to further musculoskeletal degeneration e.g. Read more
Novel materials for ankle ligament repair
Chronic ankle instability affects about 30% of patients who have experienced a severe ankle sprain. Around 60% of these will have degeneration of the ankle and develop osteoarthritis - a debilitating condition. Read more
Role of circadian rhythm in skeletal ageing
Conditions associated with skeletal ageing including the bone fragility disorder osteoporosis and the joint degenerative condition osteoarthritis affect hundreds of millions of people worldwide. Read more
Effect of Post-traumatic OA on the morphological and biomechanical properties of the mouse knee joint
Musculoskeletal diseases have a huge impact in our ageing society, affecting dramatically the disability of patients suffering from them. Read more
Development of a care pathway for dislocation after total hip replacement
Background. Hip replacement is a common operation (>100,000 annually in the NHS) performed to relieve pain and improve function, predominantly for osteoarthritis. Read more
Identification of the role of small nucleolar RNAs in cartilage ageing
University of Liverpool
Institute of Ageing and Chronic Disease Department of Musculoskeletal Biology
To reduce health inequities and improve the lives of older people we need to understand the ageing process at the molecular level. Read more
Identifying novel SNORD116 targets and signaling pathways
University of Liverpool
Institute of Ageing and Chronic Disease Department of Musculoskeletal Biology
SNORD116 is a cluster of small nucleolar RNAs absent in Prader-Willi syndrome (PWS), with undefined molecular actions and no cure. Read more
