Prostaglandin E2 synthesis in cartilage explants under compression: mPGES-1 is a mechanosensitive gene
Knee osteoarthritis (OA) results, at least in part, from overloading and inflammation leading to cartilage degradation. Prostaglandin E2 (PGE(2)) is one of the main catabolic factors involved in OA. Its synthesis is the result of cyclooxygenase (COX) and prostaglandin E synthase (PGES) activities wh...
