Suffer from osteoarthritis/ This is the protein that protects the joints

Joint health is threatened by osteoarthritis, and scientists have identified a new way to deal with this wear and tear on the joints.

According to the study, published in PLOS One, a specific protein, RORβ, also known as a nuclear receptor, which manages activities within chondrocytes, may help maintain joint health.

This particular protein can restore some of the factors associated with the smooth functioning of joints to normal levels, helping to control inflammation.

The activation of the RORβ protein may thus be an alternative strategy to prevent or delay the development of osteoarthritis, said the study's lead researcher Dr. Patrick Griffin, professor of molecular medicine at the University of Florida and scientific director of the university's Biomedical Research Laboratory./ CNA
