Human glioblastomas overexpress ADAMTS-5 that degrades brevican

Acta Neuropathologica, 2005
Selective cleavage of the Glu395-Ser396 bond of brevican, one of the major proteoglycans in adult brain tissues, is thought to be important for glioma cell invasion. Our previous biochemical study demonstrated that ADAMTS-4, a member of the ADAMTS (a disintegrin and metalloproteinase with thrombospondin motifs) family, has such an activity.

ADAMTS-4 and ADAMTS-5: Key enzymes in osteoarthritis

Journal of Cellular Biochemistry, 2011
Osteoarthritis (OA) is a progressive disease of the joints characterized by degradation of articular cartilage. Although disease initiation may be multi-factorial, the cartilage destruction appears to be a result of uncontrolled proteolytic extracellular matrix destruction.

Characterization of the promoter in ADAMTS‐5 (aggrecanase‐2)

International Journal of Experimental Pathology, 2004
Introduction  Loss of aggrecan metabolites from the cartilage matrix into the surrounding synovial fluid have allowed for identification of two major cleavage sites within aggrecan: Asn341–Phe342 and Glu373–Ala374 peptide bonds. Proteolysis at the Glu373–Ala374 bond has been specifically attributed to ADAMTS‐4 and ADAMTS‐5.

ADAMTS-4 and ADAMTS-5

2006
Osteoarthritis (OA) is characterized by articular cartilage erosion as a consequence of proteolytic cleavage of its two major functional macromolecules, type II collagen and aggrecan. Aggrecan degradation in OA and rheumatoid arthritis is attributed to cleavage at the Glu373-Ala374 bond by the aggrecanases.
