Proteolytic remodelling of the extracellular matrix by pericytes
Pericytes are specialised perivascular cells intimately connected with endothelial cells and essential for the maintenance of vascular beds. They contribute to the formation and remodelling of the extracellular matrix by actively secreting proteases and protease inhibitors.

Understanding the congruent effects of different types of antidepressant treatments on sensitive brain regions, such as the hippocampus and cortex, can highlight essential mechanisms of action. We used a systematic meta‐analysis of public transcriptional profiling datasets to identify genes and functional gene sets that are differentially expressed ...

During the development of OA, elevated RORα in chondrocytes inhibits β‐catenin degradation in the cytoplasm by activating the Wnt/β‐catenin signaling pathway. When β‐catenin protein accumulates excessively in the cytoplasm, it is transferred to the nucleus and binds to the cytosolic TCF/LEF transcriptional complex, which activates downstream target ...

The mechanical properties of articular cartilage are associated with the extracellular matrix network of type II collagen and the proteoglycan, aggrecan, which in combination provide the tensile, shear, and compressive stiffness of the tissue. While the collagen network mainly provides resistance to tensile and shear deformation, aggrecan enmeshed ...
