Understanding the role of Type 1 diabetes mellitus in osteoarthritis
Ontology highlight
ABSTRACT: Type 1 diabetes mellitus (T1DM) affects 9.5% of the population. T1DM is characterized by severe insulin deficiency that causes hyperglycemia and leads to several systemic effects. T1DM has been suggested as a risk factor for articular cartilage damage and loss, which could expedite the development of osteoarthritis (OA). OA represents a major public health challenge by affecting 300 million people globally, yet very little is known about the correlation between T1DM and OA. In this study we aimed to understand the role of T1DM in OA by evaluating whether pre-existing T1DM exacerbates the development of knee post traumatic osteoarthritis (PTOA). Here we describe the transcriptomic differences between the knee joints of STZ injected C57BL/6J mice (T1DM) and control mice
