A cartilage catabolic factor from synovium

J T Dingle et al. Biochem J. .

Abstract

Porcine synovium in organ culture produces a factor that causes chondrocytes to degrade their matrix. A quantitative assay for the factor, for which the cartilage of bovine nasal septum is used, is described. Evidence is presented that the catabolic factor is a protein.
