Mechanisms contributing to fluid-flow-induced Ca2+ mobilization in articular chondrocytes.

abstract：:MicroRNA 520c and 373 (miR-520c and miR-373) have been characterized as oncogenes and play critical roles in cancer cell metastasis. However, the relationship between these two microRNAs and matrix metalloproteinases (MMPs), which are important in cancer cell metastasis, remains unknown. Here, we report new evidence i...
