Human chondrocytes respond discordantly to the protein encoded by the osteoarthritis susceptibility gene GDF5.
A genetic deficit mediated by SNP rs143383 that leads to reduced expression of GDF5 is strongly associated with large-joint osteoarthritis. We speculated that this deficit could be attenuated by the application of exogenous GDF5 protein and as a first step we have assessed what effect such applicati...
