Research Article Correlation analysis of ADAMTS-4, VCAM-1, and TAK1 expression in cartilage tissue from spine tuberculosis.

Abstract: ABSTRACT.A disintegrin and metalloproteinase with thrombospondin motifs 4 (ADAMTS-4) can effectively degrade articular cartilage matrix proteoglycan and damage the intervertebral disc of spinal tuberculosis patients, resulting in deterioration of the physical properties of articular cartilage. Transforming growth factor β activated kinase 1 (TAK1) is similar to vascular cell adhesion molecule 1 (VCAM-1) and closely related to a variety of pathophysiological processes. This study intended to explore the express… Show more

“…MMPs-1, -3 and 10 were similarly the most significantly acidosis upregulated genes amongst Collagen Degradation and ECM degradation genes. After MMP genes, the next most upregulated gene in these sets was protease ADAMTS4 which also degrades ECM components and is highly expressed at sites of TB infection [ 39 ]. Transcriptome profiling therefore demonstrates that acidosis enhances expression of ECM degradation pathways in M.tb infected MDMs by increasing expression of key MMPs of known importance to TB immunopathology.…”

“…The activity of superoxide dismutase (SOD) was determined as described by Zhang et al (2012b) and the content of malondialdehyde (MDA) was assayed using the protocol from a previous study (Feng et al, 2009b). The correlation analyses of the differences between sampling days and concentrations of SOD and MDA were performed by SPSS 19 (Qiu et al, 2017).…”
