Articular cartilage injury rapidly activates TAK1 in chondrocytes by inducing its phosphorylation and K63-polyubiquitination

Objectives Mechanical injury to cartilage predisposes to osteoarthritis (OA). Wounding the articular cartilage surface causes rapid activation of MAP kinases and NFκB mimicking the response to inflammatory cytokines. Here, we identify the upstream signalling mechanisms involved. Methods Cartilage wa...
