Clinical Correlations of Osteoarthritis Associated with a Single‐Base Mutation (Arginine519 to Cysteine) in Type II Procollagen Gene

Abstract: Objective. To investigate the occurrence and clinical correlation of the arg519-to-cys mutation in the type 11 procollagen gene in patients with osteoarthritis (OA).Methods. Sixty-six subjects from 7 families with a strong family history of generalized OA and 13 patients with erosive OA were evaluated clinically and radiologically. Blood samples from 58 subjects in the familial OA

“…Osteoarthritis (OA), the most prevalent disease of the articulating joints affecting millions of people worldwide is a chronic degenerative joint disease that is characterized by deterioration in the integrity of cartilage and is coupled with pain, tenderness, disability and inflammation without systemic effects (1). Although multiple factors are included in OA etiology, chondrocytes are crucial to tissue function and dominate the degenerative process of cartilage if the genes are expressed inappropriately when compared with adjacent tissues.…”

“…Upregulated collagenase activity is also seen in the development of OA in ageing and unstable joints [38]. Additional implication of collagen I1 in the ethiopathogenesis of OA is highlighted when the slow turnover of collagen in adult cartilage is considered [32], and in light of animal models of OA where tissue defects are induced by collagen 11 mutations [33].…”

“…Similarly in the 1990s, particular families were discovered to have missense mutation (R519C) causing the production of abnormal type II collagen pro-alphachains. These alpha chains formed protein dimers leading to mild chondrodysplasia followed by a unique form of familial OA (Byers, 2001;Eyre et al, 1991;Pun et al, 1994;Bleasel et al, 1998).…”
