Abstract excerpt
Osteoarthritis (OA) is a degenerative joint disease that affects cartilage and its peripheral tissues. Up-regulation of Calcium-binding protein 39 (CAB39) has a significant protective effect on osteoblasts, but the role and related molecular mechanisms of CAB39 in OA have not yet been reported. CAB39 overexpression and knockdown models were set up in chondrocytes (ATDC5) and macrophages (RAW264.7). The OA cell...
