Expression and localization of the small proteoglycans decorin and biglycan in articular cartilage of Kashin-Beck disease and rats induced by T-2 toxin and selenium deficiency

open access: yes, 2019
Kashin-Beck disease (KBD) is an endemic degenerative osteoarthropathy of uncertain etiology. Our study sought to identify a correlation between small proteoglycans decorin and biglycan expression and Kashin-Beck Disease.

Case Report Arthroscopic Ankle Arthrodesis for Treating Osteoarthritis in a Patient with Kashin-Beck Disease

open access: yes, 2020
Kashin-Beck disease (KBD) is an endemic degenerative osteoarthritis. Death of cartilage and growth plate is the pathologic feature; therefore, KBD involves skeletal deformity and often results in osteoarthritis.

Potential involvement of connective tissue growth factor in chondrocytes apoptosis of Kashin-Beck disease

open access: yesEcotoxicology and Environmental Safety
Background: Kashin-Beck disease (KBD) is an endemic osteoarthropathy characterized by excessive chondrocytes apoptosis. T-2 toxin exposure has been proved to be its etiology. Connective tissue growth factor (CTGF) exerts a profound influence on cartilage

Altered proteolytic activity and expression of MMPs and aggrecanases and their inhibitors in Kashin–Beck disease

open access: yes, 2015
Kashin–Beck disease (KBD) is a chronic, deforming endemic osteoarticular disease with altered metabolism of the cartilage matrix. Matrix metalloproteinases (MMPs), aggrecanases (ATAMTSs), and their inhibitors (TIMPs) play important roles in cartilage ...
