Regulation of aggrecanases from the ADAMTS family and aggrecan neoepitope formation during in vitro chondrogenesis of human mesenchymal stem cells

Aggrecanases from the ADAMTS (A Disintegrin And Metalloproteinase with ThromboSpondin motifs) family are important therapeutic targets due to their essential role in aggrecan depletion in arthritic diseases. Whether their function is also important for matrix rearrangements during chondrogenesis and...
