Osteoarthritis (OA) is a well-known disease that is part of the aging process and also one of the most common diseases among mammals. Although this musculoskeletal disorder has been described in mammals of many ages, having been reported in Egyptian mummies and in dinosaurs, its exact etiology is far from being fully understood. With the graying of the world population, it is of the utmost importance to find out more about the pathogenesis of the disease and thus allow the discovery of new… Expand
