Osteoarthritis is a whole-joint disease characterized by the progressive destruction of articular cartilage involving abnormal communication between subchondral bone and cartilage. Our team previously identified 14-3-3ε protein as a subchondral bone soluble mediator altering cartilage homeostasis. The aim of this

The localization of exopeptidase activities was demonstrated histochemically (by simultaneous azo coupling) on the visceral endoderm of whole unfixed yolk sacs of rats (12.5-18.5 days of gestation). For comparison, the topochemistry of exopeptidases was studied by conventional section histochemistry of
