MicroRNA‐27b regulates the expression of matrix metalloproteinase 13 in human osteoarthritis chondrocytes
21 Jan 2010
Abstract excerpt
OBJECTIVE: Aberrant posttranscriptional regulation of matrix metalloproteinases (MMPs) by microRNA has emerged as an important factor in human diseases. The aim of this study was to determine whether the expression of MMP-13 in human osteoarthritis (OA) chondrocytes is regulated by microRNA. METHODS: Chondrocytes were stimulated with interleukin-1beta (IL-1beta) in vitro. Total RNA was prepared using TRIzol...
