Osteoarthritis (OA) is a progressive disease of the joints characterized by degradation of articular cartilage. Although disease initiation may be multi-factorial, the cartilage destruction appears to be a result of uncontrolled proteolytic extracellular matrix destruction. A major component of the

The initial cellular event in atherosclerosis is the recruitment of monocytes to the vessel wall, and the formation of foam cells by the uptake of modified lipoproteins. The role of macrophages in this process is the uptake and processing of lipoproteins ultimately leading to foam cell formation. Th

## Abstract Brain tumors, in particular glioblastomas, have a high morbidity and mortality, mainly due to their invasive nature. A prerequisite for this invasiveness is cell migration based on increased expression of proteases digesting the extracellular matrix. Brevican, an important extracellular
