Abstract
Osteoarthritic (OA) is characterized by progressive destruction of joint cartilage. Here, the authors show that microRNA-17 plays a dual role in maintaining cartilage homeostasis and in the prevention of osteoarthritis, by targeting hypoxia-inducible factor-1α as well as multiple matrix-degrading enzymes.
