Ubiquitin-specific protease 26 facilitates endochondral ossification by driving chondrocyte hypertrophy and mineralization [PDF]
Chondrocyte hypertrophy and mineralization are essential for endochondral ossification; however, the mechanisms underlying these processes remain incompletely understood.

Role of iRhoms 1 and 2 in Endochondral Ossification [PDF]
Growth of the axial and appendicular skeleton depends on endochondral ossification, which is controlled by tightly regulated cell–cell interactions in the developing growth plates. Previous studies have uncovered an important role of a disintegrin and metalloprotease 17 (ADAM17) in the normal development of the mineralized zone of hypertrophic ...

Knockdown of LncRNA H19 inhibits vascularization and endochondral ossification via the MiRNA-21a-5p-Smad7/p-Smad2/3 pathway in fracture repair [PDF]
The biological process of fracture repair involves inflammation, vascularization, endochondral ossification, and cartilage production. Long non-coding RNAs (lncRNAs) are essential for the growth and maintenance of the skeleton. In this study, the role of

Notch1 signaling regulates Sox9 and VEGFA expression and governs BMP2-induced endochondral ossification of mesenchymal stem cells [PDF]
Although bone morphogenetic protein 2 (BMP2) can induce chondrogenic differentiation of mesenchymal stem cells (MSCs), its induction of endochondral ossification limits the application of BMP2-based cartilage regeneration.

SMN deficiency inhibits endochondral ossification via promoting TRAF6-induced ubiquitination degradation of YBX1 in spinal muscular atrophy [PDF]
Survival of motor neuron (SMN) protein encoded by SMN1 gene, is the essential and ubiquitously expressed protein in all tissues. Prior studies demonstrated that SMN deficiency impaired bone development, but the underlying mechanism of abnormal ...

Impairment of the chondrogenic phase of endochondral ossification in vivo by inhibition of cyclooxygenase-2 [PDF]
Many studies have reported on the effects of cyclooxygenase-2 (COX-2) inhibition on osteogenesis. However, far less is known about the effects of COX-2 inhibition on chondrogenic differentiation.

Potential Role of Leptin in Endochondral Ossification [PDF]
Leptin, a 16-kD circulating hormone secreted mainly by white adipose tissue, is a product of the obese (ob) gene. Leptin acts on human marrow stromal cells to enhance differentiation into osteoblasts and inhibit differentiation into adipocytes. Leptin also inhibits bone formation through a hypothalamic relay.

A multi-model approach identifies ALW-II-41-27 as a promising therapy for osteoarthritis-associated inflammation and endochondral ossification [PDF]
Low-grade inflammation and pathological endochondral ossification are key processes underlying the progression of osteoarthritis, the most prevalent joint disease worldwide.

Modeling vascular dynamics at the initial stage of endochondral ossification on a microfluidic chip using a human embryonic-stem-cell-derived organoid [PDF]
Vascular interactions play a crucial role in embryogenesis, including skeletal development. During endochondral ossification, vascular networks are formed as mesenchymal cells condense and later invade skeletal elements to form the bone marrow.

Inhibition of cyclooxygenase-2 impacts chondrocyte hypertrophic differentiation during endochondral ossification [PDF]
Skeletogenesis and bone fracture healing involve endochondral ossification, a process during which cartilaginous primordia are gradually replaced by bone tissue.
