[Asporin, a susceptibility gene for osteoarthritis].

Clinical calcium - 1 Sept 2006

Ikegawa Shiro

Abstract excerpt

Osteoarthritis (OA) is the most common form of human arthritis. Genetic factors have been implicated in OA. Through a candidate gene-association study, we found association between asporin and OA. Asporin is an extracellular matrix component expressed abundantly in the articular cartilage of OA patients. A significant association between a polymorphism in the aspartic acid (D) repeat of the asporin gene (ASPN)...
