Inorganic pyrophosphate (PPI) in pathologic calcification of articular cartilage.

Frontiers in bioscience : a journal and virtual library - 1 Jan 2005

Johnson Kristen, Terkeltaub Robert

Abstract excerpt

Physiologic levels of extracellular PPi, which suppresses hydroxyapatite crystal growth, must be maintained by articular chondrocytes and resident cells in many othee tissues in order to prevent pathologic calcification. However, extracellular PPi rises in articular cartilage in direct associatio...
