Redox-active endosomes mediate α5β1 integrin signaling and promote chondrocyte matrix metalloproteinase production in osteoarthritis

SCIENCE SIGNALING, 16(809).

TL;DR: Fragments of extracellular matrix proteins stimulate chondrocytes to produce proteases, thus perpetuating cartilage degradation, and this signaling mechanism not only amplifies the production of matrix-degrading proteases but also establishes a self-perpetuating cycle that contributes to the ongoing degradation of cartilage matrix in osteoarthritis.
