Comparison of Kindlin-2 deficiency-stimulated osteoarthritis-like lesions induced by Prg4CreERT2 versus AggrecanCreERT2 transgene in mice

Background: Genetically modified mice are the most useful tools for investigating the gene functions in articular cartilage biology and the pathogenesis of osteoarthritis. The AggrecanCreERT2 mice are one of the most reported mouse lines used for this purpose. The Prg4 (proteoglycan 4) gene encodes...
