Another fun collaboration between @LootsLab and @ChristiansenLab
Authors from @Livermore_Lab and @UCDavisOrtho aimed to evaluate whether T1DM exacerbates the development of spontaneous OA or accelerates the progression of post-traumatic osteoarthritis following joint injury #JBMRPlus #openaccess #freetoread ow.ly/YK1C50Ipjrl
