Abstract
⺠Osteoarthritis is characterised by degradation of cartilage extracellular matrix. ⺠Collagen is degraded by matrix metalloproteinases such as MMP-13. ⺠Aggrecan is degraded by related ADAMTS metalloproteinases. ⺠Less abundant cartilage components are degraded by a variety of proteinases. ⺠Factors such as inflammation and mechanical damage stimulate enzyme expression.
