Proteomic analysis of articular cartilage shows increased type II collagen synthesis in osteoarthritis and expression of inhibin betaA (activin A), a regulatory molecule for chondrocytes.
We show that proteomic analysis can be applied to study cartilage pathophysiology. Proteins secreted by articular cartilage were analyzed by two-dimensional SDS-PAGE and mass spectrometry. Cartilage explants were cultured in medium containing [35S]methionine/cysteine to radiolabel newly synthesized...
