Lin28a induces SOX9 and chondrocyte reprogramming via HMGA2 and blunts cartilage loss in mice
26 Aug 2022
Abstract excerpt
Articular cartilage has low regenerative capacity despite permanent stress. Irreversible cartilage lesions characterize osteoarthritis (OA); this is not followed by tissue repair. Lin28a, an RNA binding protein, is detected in damaged cartilage in humans and mice. We investigated the role of LIN28a in cartilage physiology and in osteoarthritis. Lin28a-inducible conditional cartilage deletion up-regulated Mmp13 in...
