Proteoglycan-4 regulates fibroblast to myofibroblast transition and expression of fibrotic genes in the synovium

BACKGROUND: Synovial tissue fibrosis is common in advanced OA with features including the presence of stress fiber-positive myofibroblasts and deposition of cross-linked collagen type-I. Proteoglycan-4 (PRG4) is a mucinous glycoprotein secreted by synovial fibroblasts and is a major component of syn...
