Abstract
- Wwp2 is an HECT-type E3 ubiquitin ligase abundantly expressed in articular cartilage. Here, the authors show that in mice, loss of Wwp2 leads to upregulated Runx2-Adamts5 signaling in articular cartilage and development of osteoarthritis, and that disease severity is reduced by injection of Wwp2 mRNA
