Abstract

The development of cartilage pathology in osteoarthritis involves excessive damage to the collagen fibrillar network, which appears to be mediated primarily by the chondrocyte-generated cytokines interleukin-1 and tumour necrosis factor α and the collagenases matrix metalloproteinase-1 (MMP-1) and MMP-13. The damage to matrix caused by these and other MMPs can result in the production of sufficient degradation products that can themselves elicit further degradation, leading to chondrocyte differentiation and eventually matrix mineralization and cell death. Knowledge of these MMPs, cellular receptors and cytokine pathways, and the ability to selectively antagonize them by selective blockade of function, may provide valuable therapeutic opportunities in the treatment of osteoarthritis and other joint diseases involving cartilage resorption, such as rheumatoid arthritis. The ability to detect the products of these degradative events released into body fluids of patients may enable us to monitor disease activity, predict disease progression and determine more rapidly the efficacy of new therapeutic agents.

About these checks

Registry, retraction, Cites and statistics results are computed, not judged, with one exception: a printed reference that no index lists is read once by a model before it counts as a citation error. Claims are extracted by a model and kept only when their quote appears verbatim in the text; each cited source is then checked, with a model’s help, for whether it says what the claim relies on. Those verdicts can be wrong — read the claim’s quote and the cited source before relying on one.

Statistics and arithmetic are recomputed, not judged.

Confidence bands are shown only for fields calibrated on our annotated test set. None is calibrated yet, so no band is shown.
