The TMSB4 Pseudogene LncRNA Functions as a Competing Endogenous RNA to Promote Cartilage Degradation in Human Osteoarthritis
29 Jul 2016
Abstract excerpt
Mechanical stress plays a key role in the development of cartilage degradation in osteoarthritis (OA). Nevertheless, the role of long noncoding RNAs in mechanical stress-induced regulation of chondrocytes remains unclear. The aim of this study was to explore the function of mechanical stress-related long noncoding RNAs in cartilage. Tissue samples were collected from 50 patients and chondrocytes were exposed to...
