Degradomics defines proteolysis information flow from human knee osteoarthritis cartilage to matched synovial fluid and the contributions of secreted proteases ADAMTS5, MMP13 and CMA1 to articular cartilage breakdown

Proteolytic cartilage extracellular matrix breakdown is a major mechanism of articular cartilage loss in osteoarthritis (OA) pathogenesis. We sought to determine the overlap of proteolytic peptides in matched knee OA cartilage and synovial fluid on a proteome-wide scale to increase the prospective b...
