Fibroblast Growth Factor 23 (FGF23) may represent an attractive candidate that could participate to the osteoarthritic (OA)-induced phenotype switch of chondrocytes. To address this hypothesis, we investigated the expression of FGF23, its receptors (FGFRs) and co-receptor (Klotho) in human cartilage

In the leukemic macrophage cell-line THP-1, a fraction of the secreted matrix metalloproteinase 9 (MMP-9) is linked to the core protein of chondroitin sulfate proteoglycans (CSPG). Unlike the monomeric and homodimeric forms of MMP-9, the addition of exogenous CaCl2 to

Acute laminitis is characterised by hoof lamellar dermal-epidermal separation at the basement membrane (BM) zone. Hoof lamellar explants cultured in vitro can also be made to separate at the basement membrane zone and investigating how this occurs may give insight

Matrix metalloproteinases (MMPs) are an important family of extracellular proteases that process a variety of biologically significant molecules. MMPs are members of the metzincin superfamily of >770 zinc endopeptidases, which includes astacins, serralysins, adamalysins, leishmanolysins, and snapalysins. Metzincins are characterized

In osteoarthritis (OA), inhibition of excessively expressed pro-inflammatory cytokines in the OA joint and increasing the anabolism for cartilage regeneration are necessary. In this ex-vivo study, we used an inflammatory model of human OA chondrocytes microtissues, consisting of treatment with
