Profiling microRNA expression in bovine articular cartilage and implications for mechanotransduction
30 Jul 2009
Abstract excerpt
OBJECTIVE: Articular cartilage is an avascular tissue with precise polarity and organization comprising 3 distinct functional zones: the surface, middle, and deep zones. Each zone has a different gene expression pattern that plays a specific role in articular cartilage development and maintenance. MicroRNA (miRNA) are small noncoding gene products that play an important regulatory role in determining cell...
