Abstract excerpt
Mutations causing metaphyseal chondrodysplasia type Schmid (MCDS) (e.g., Col10a1p.N617K) induce the pathology by a mechanism involving increased endoplasmic reticulum (ER) stress triggering an unfolded protein response (UPR) in hypertrophic chondrocytes (Rajpar et al. 2009). Here we correlate the...
