Tissue growth factor β stimulates fibroblast-like synovial cells to produce extra domain A fibronectin in osteoarthritis
2018-05-31
Abstract excerpt
<h4>Introduction</h4> The pathophysiology of osteoarthritis (OA) involves wear and tear, and a state of low-grade inflammation. Wear and tear leads to tissue degradation and tissue repair responses, including tissue growth factor beta (TGFβ)-induced myofibroblast production of extracellular matrix (ECM). Fibronectins are an essential part of the ECM, and injection of fibronectin fragments into rabbit joints is a...
