摘要

Proteoglycan 4 (PRG4), also known as lubricin and superficial zone protein, is a mucinous glycoprotein that is present in synovial fluid (SF) and at the surface of articular cartilage, where it functions as a critical boundary lubricant necessary for joint health. High friction and high wear are amongst many factors that may contribute to cartilage degeneration. PRG4 is critical in reducing friction and minimising surface tissue shear at the surface of cartilage, thus preventing the degradation of cartilage through boundary lubrication. Indeed, an increased coefficient of friction in PRG4-knockout mice is associated with increased wear of the articular surface. Furthermore, intra-articular injection of PRG4 has been shown to prevent cartilage degradation in post-injury rat models of osteoarthritis (OA). A recent study, motivated by diminished PRG4 levels in SF associated with early OA, demonstrated aldehyde modification of PRG4 (PRG4-CH0) significantly enhanced its binding to a depleted articular surface
