## Abstract ## Objective Chondrocyte cell death may play an important role in the development of arthritis. The goal of the present study was to evaluate the role of the extracellular matrix (ECM) in promoting chondrocyte survival via signals through the integrin family of ECM receptors. ## Metho
We have recently described a 550,000-dalton nomollagenous cartilage matrix glycoprotein (CMGP), with subunits of 130,000, which is present in hyaline cartilage and fibrocartilage. Biosynthetic studies indicated that CMGP was synthesized by short-term organ cultures of normal canine articular cartila
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
