Objective. Human osteoarthritis (OA) is characterized by a pathologic shift in articular cartilage homeostasis toward the progressive loss of extracellular matrix (ECM). The purpose of this study was to investigate the ability of rAAV-mediated SOX9 overexpression to restore major ECM components in h

SOX9 is a transcription factor that is expressed in chondrocytes and regulates expression of chondrocyte phenotype related genes. Expression of these genes is known to be suppressed by retinoic acid (RA). We, therefore, examined whether the Sox9 gene expression is regulated by RA in chondrocytes. RA
## Abstract The transcription of the uteroglobin gene (__ug__) is induced by progesterone in the rabbit endometrium, primarily through the binding of the progesterone receptor to the distal region of the __ug__ promoter. However, other transcription factors participate in the progesterone action. T
## Abstract Mouse embryonic fibroblasts (MEFs) can be differentiated into fully functional chondrocytes in response to bone morphogenetic proteinβ2 (BMPβ2). The expression of Sox9, a critical transcription factor for the multiple steps of chondrogenesis, has been reported to be upregulated during t
Chondrogenesis is the earliest phase of skeletal development, involving mesenchymal cell recruitment and migration, condensation of progenitors, and chondrocyte differentiation, and maturation and resulting in the formation of cartilage and bone during endochondral ossification. This process is cont
