Assessing collagen alterations in enzymatic degradation models of osteoarthritis via second harmonic generation microscopy

Summary: The study effectively demonstrated the disorganized collagen structure resulting from trypsin and collagenase degradation in cartilage, with collagenase showing the most significant effect. Application of a LD model successfully classified control and degraded tissues, indicating distinct activity of these enzymes on collagen assembly. Results from human cartilage suggested that collagenase effects were more representative of in vivo degeneration, emphasizing the potential of using high-resolution SHG and optical scattering as an earlier diagnostic tool for OA.
