Aggrecanolysis and in vitro matrix degradation in the immature bovine meniscus: mechanisms and functional implications

INTRODUCTION: Little is known about endogenous or cytokine-stimulated aggrecan catabolism in the meniscal fibrocartilage of the knee. The objectives of this study were to characterize the structure, distribution, and processing of aggrecan in menisci from immature bovines, and to identify mechanisms...
