ADAMTS -1 and -4 are up-regulated following transient middle cerebral artery occlusion in the rat and their expression is modulated by TNF in cultured astrocytes [PDF]
, 2006 ADAMTS (a disintegrin and metalloproteinase with thrombospondin motifs) enzymes are a recently described group of metalloproteinases. The substrates degraded by ADAMTS-1, -4 and -5 suggests that they play a role in turnover of extracellular matrix in the

Müller glia activation in response to inherited retinal degeneration is highly varied and disease-specific [PDF]
, 2015 Despite different aetiologies, most inherited retinal disorders culminate in photoreceptor loss, which induces concomitant changes in the neural retina, one of the most striking being reactive gliosis by Müller cells.

THE PATTERN OF URINARY CHONDROITIN SULFATE AND CHONDROITIN EXCRETION WITH AGE
The Kurume Medical Journal, 1975 Urinary chondroitin sulfates were measured quantitatively and qualitatively in healthy human males ranging from prematurity to 80 years of age. Between 20 and 30 years of age, chondroitin 4-sulfate the predominant urinary component in the young is displaced by chondroitin 6-sulfate.
