Arthritic Inflammatory Pain
Joint Pain Associated with Osteoarthritis
Osteoarthritis (OA) is a common joint disease which can elicit chronic disabling pain in patients. OA is a degenerative condition involving chondrocyte death and cartilage erosion affecting the entire joint structure.
At MD Biosciences, we offer the monosodium iodoacetate (MIA) model for OA pain, which contains both an inflammatory and neuropathic pain component.
