| Research Abstract |
In vivo observation of the Sox9 expression using Sox9-EGFP mice revealed that the Sox9 on the articular surface was increased temporally through TRPV4, which is one of the mechano-gated channels in chondrocytes, at the initial stage of osteoarthritis(OA). In addition, TRPV4 knock-out mice exhibited severer degradation of cartilage in the experimental OA model than wild-type mice. Furthermore, a selective agonist for TRPV4, GSK1016790A, induced the temporal expression of Sox9 in chondrocytes and was found to have a potential to inhibit the progression of OA.
