Type IIA procollagen NH2-propeptide functions as an antagonist of bone morphogenetic proteins

The Many Faces of Osteoarthritis

Abstract

Knowledge of how growth factors are regulated in the extracellular matrix is crucial for understanding processes of tissue development and repair. A complex series of processes occurs in the extracellular matrix to control the activity and distribution of bone morphogenetic proteins (BMPs), which are important factors during cartilage and bone development. It is known that tissue regeneration is a recapitulation of processes in embryonic development and morphogenesis. Thus, in the case of cartilage repair during osteoarthritis, we can apply our knowledge of BMP function/regulation during embryogenesis to developing therapeutic strategies that will induce and even prolong natural tissue repair.
