Endogenous adenosine maintains cartilage homeostasis and exogenous adenosine inhibits osteoarthritis progression

Osteoarthritis (OA) is a debilitating and destructive joint disease for which disease modifying drugs are not available. Here the authors show that extracellular adenosine signalling via the A2AR receptor on chondrocytes is needed to prevent OA and that liposome-bound adenosine injection can treat t...

Sumario:Osteoarthritis (OA) is a debilitating and destructive joint disease for which disease modifying drugs are not available. Here the authors show that extracellular adenosine signalling via the A2AR receptor on chondrocytes is needed to prevent OA and that liposome-bound adenosine injection can treat the pathology in rats.
