The relative importance of cysteine peptidases in osteoarthritis.

Only registered users can translate articles

OBJECTIVE To assess the activity of cysteine peptidases in cultured human articular chondrocytes as well as in osteoarthritic (OA) cartilage and subchondral bone, and to interpret their relative importance in cartilage destruction and remodeling of the subchondral region. METHODS Intracellular and

CCL20/CCR6 chemokine/receptor expression in bone tissue from osteoarthritis and rheumatoid arthritis patients: different response of osteoblasts in the two groups.

Only registered users can translate articles

Subchondral bone remodeling in osteoarthritis (OA) and rheumatoid arthritis (RA) is mainly characterized by the formation of osteophytes/fibrosis and by the presence of infiltrating cells associated to bone resorption. In this study we analyzed CC (cysteine cysteine motif) chemokine ligand (CCL)20

Correlation of CD₄⁺ CD₂₅⁺ Foxp₃⁺ Treg with the recovery of joint function after total knee replacement in rats with osteoarthritis.

In this study, we observed changes in CD4(+) CD25(+) Foxp3(+) Treg expression in rats with osteoarthritis (OA) to explore the role that CD4(+) CD25(+) Foxp3(+) Treg plays in the decline in the condition of OA rats. Thirty rats were randomly divided into 2 groups equally and OA was induced in rats in

Transforming growth factor Beta1 induction of tissue inhibitor of metalloproteinases 3 in articular chondrocytes is mediated by reactive oxygen species.

Transforming growth factor beta1 (TGF-beta1) stimulates cartilage extracellular matrix synthesis but, in excess, evokes synovial inflammation, hyperplasia, and osteophyte formation in arthritic joints. TGF-beta1 induces tissue inhibitor of metalloproteinases 3 (TIMP-3), an inhibitor of

Cathepsin K, but not cathepsins B, L, or S, is abundantly expressed in human osteoclasts.

Only registered users can translate articles

Random high throughput sequencing of a human osteoclast cDNA library was employed to identify novel osteoclast-expressed genes. Of the 5475 ESTs obtained, approximately 4% encoded cathepsin K, a novel cysteine protease homologous to cathepsins S and L; ESTs for other cathepsins were rare. In
