Selenophosphate synthetase 1 deficiency exacerbates osteoarthritis by dysregulating redox homeostasis

Osteoarthritis is caused by the gradual accumulation of oxidative stress in cartilage. Here, the authors show that dysregulation of the selenium metabolic pathway underlies a shift in redox homeostasis in chondrocytes, leading to chronic osteoarthritic changes in joints.
