Intraarticular injection of hyaluronan (hyaluronic acid; HA) is the common way to treat osteoarthritis (OA) of knees. This treatment cannot only maintain the viscoelastic properties of knee but also release the OA pain. However, the exact molecular mechanism is unknown. In this study, after human sy
## Abstract Transforming growth factor‐β (TGF‐β) plays a crucial role in vascular development and homeostasis by regulating many transcriptional targets. Activin receptor‐like kinase 5 (ALK‐5) is a TGF‐β type I receptor expressed in various TGF‐β‐responsive cells. In contrast, ALK‐1 functions as a
