A Functional Link between Housekeeping Selenoproteins and Phase II Enzymes [PDF]

, 2008
Sec (selenocysteine) is biosynthesized on its tRNA and incorporated into selenium-containing proteins (selenoproteins) as the 21st amino acid residue. Selenoprotein synthesis is dependent on Sec tRNA and the expression of this class of proteins can be ...

Cartilage Extracellular Matrix Homeostasis in Knee Osteoarthritis: Pathomechanisms and Therapeutic Targeting

Journal of Cellular and Molecular Medicine, Volume 30, Issue 19, October 2026.
ABSTRACT Knee osteoarthritis (KOA) is a degenerative joint disease primarily driven by the disruption of homeostasis in the chondrocyte extracellular matrix (CECM). This review systematically examines the central role of CECM homeostasis in KOA pathogenesis and summarizes recent advances in this field.
