Cilia protein IFT88 regulates extracellular protease activity by optimizing LRP-1–mediated endocytosis
Matrix protease activity is fundamental to developmental tissue patterning and remains influential in adult homeostasis. In cartilage, the principal matrix proteoglycan is aggrecan, the protease-mediated catabolism of which defines arthritis; however, the pathophysiologic mechanisms that drive aberr...
