Circadian Rhythm Protein Bmal1 Modulates Cartilage Gene Expression in Temporomandibular Joint Osteoarthritis via the MAPK/ERK Pathway

The purpose of this study was to elucidate the role of the circadian gene Bmal1 in human cartilage and its crosstalk with the MAPK/ERK signaling pathway in temporomandibular joint osteoarthritis (TMJ-OA). We verified the periodical variation of the circadian gene Bmal1 and then established a modifie...
