Circular RNA Related to the Chondrocyte ECM Regulates MMP13 Expression by Functioning as a MiR-136 ‘Sponge’ in Human Cartilage Degradation

open access: yesScientific Reports, 2016
Circular RNAs (circRNAs) are involved in the development of various diseases, but there is little knowledge of circRNAs in osteoarthritis (OA). The aim of study was to identify circRNA expression in articular cartilage and to explore the function of ...

SPI1 activates mitochondrial unfolded response signaling to inhibit chondrocyte senescence and relieves osteoarthritis

open access: yesBone Research
Chondrocyte senescence is a critical pathological hallmark of osteoarthritis (OA). Aberrant mechanical stress is considered a pivotal determinant in chondrocyte aging; however, the precise underlying mechanism remains elusive.

The chondrocyte primary cilium [PDF]

open access: yesOsteoarthritis and Cartilage, 2014
The presence and role of primary, or non-motile, cilia on chondrocytes has confused cartilage researchers for decades. Initial explanations attributed a vestigial nature to chondrocyte cilia. Evidence is now emerging that supports the role of the chondrocyte primary cilium as a sensory organelle, in particular, in mechanotransduction and as a ...
