Estrogen-Related Receptor γ Induces Angiogenesis and Extracellular Matrix Degradation of Temporomandibular Joint Osteoarthritis in Rats
The main causes of cartilage destruction during temporomandibular joint osteoarthritis (TMJOA) are extracellular matrix degradation and angiogenesis, accompanied by an increased level of matrix-degrading enzymes and proangiogenic factors. Interleukin 6 and extracellular signal–regulated kinase (ERK)...
