MIA/CD-RAP Regulates MMP13 and Is a Potential New Disease-Modifying Target for Osteoarthritis Therapy.
Article in Cells, 2023. The graph could read no effect estimate from its abstract, so it casts no vote on the map. Cited by 4 papers.
What it found
Each row is one number read from the abstract, on the scale the paper reported it, with its interval. Left of the dashed line favours the treatment, right favours the comparator. Under each row is the sentence it came from. New to these charts? A ten-minute tutorial.
The abstract states no effect estimate the extractor could read, or names no intervention and outcome on the map, so this paper lights no cell and moves no belief. It is still indexed, cited and linked below.
The trial behind it
Trials whose registry record cites this paper, or whose number appears in the abstract. A trial that started after this paper was published is citing it as background, not reporting it.
Neither the registry nor the abstract names a trial number. If this is a trial report, that itself is worth knowing.

Abstract
Melanoma inhibitory activity/cartilage-derived retinoicacid-sensitive protein (MIA/CD-RAP) is a protein expressed and secreted by chondrocytes and cartilaginous tissues. MIA/CD-RAP-deficient mice develop milder osteoarthritis than wildtype mice. In this study, we investigated MIA/CD-RAP downstream targets to explain this reduced disease development. As a possible mediator, we could detect matrix metalloproteinase 13 (MMP13), and the influence of MIA/CD-RAP on MMP13 regulation was analyzed in vitro using SW1353 chondrosarcoma cells and primary chondrocytes. The femoral head cartilage of WT and MIA/CD-RAP -/- mice were cultured ex vivo to further investigate MMP13 activity. Finally, osteoarthritis was surgically induced via DMM in C57BL/6 mice, and the animals were treated with an MIA/CD-RAP inhibitory peptide by subcutaneously implanted pellets. MMP13 was regulated by MIA/CD-RAP in SW1353 cells, and MIA/CD-RAP -/- murine chondrocytes showed less expression of MMP13. Further, IL-1β-treated MIA/CD-RAP -/- chondrocytes displayed less MMP13 expression and activity. Additionally, MIA/CD-RAP-deficient ex vivo cultured cartilage explants showed less MMP13 activity as well as reduced cartilage degradation. The mice treated with the MIA/CD-RAP inhibitory peptide showed less osteoarthritis development. Our findings revealed MIA/CD-RAP as a new regulator of MMP13 and highlighted its role as a potential new target for osteoarthritis therapy.
