Genetic factors in OA pathogenesis.

Abstract excerpt

Osteoarthritis (OA) is known to have an important genetic component and human genetic studies can help unravel the molecular mechanisms responsible for joint damage and nociception involved in OA. Genetic studies in humans have identified molecules involved in signaling cascades that are important for the pathology of the joint components such as the bone morphogenetic protein growth differentiation factor 5...
