Large-scale gene expression profiles, differentially represented in osteoarthritic synovium of the knee joint using cDNA microarray technology

Abstract excerpt

Osteoarthritis (OA) is one of the most common age-related chronic disorders of articular cartilage, joints and bone tissue. Diagnosis of OA commonly depends on clinical and radiographic findings. However, changes in cartilage associated with the early stage of OA cannot be detected using radiographs, because significant cartilage degeneration must occur before radiographic findings show alterations of the...
