The response to oestrogen deprivation of the cartilage collagen degradation marker, CTX-II, is unique compared with other markers of collagen turnover (2009)

Bay-Jensen, Anne-Christine, Tabassi, Nadine CB, Sondergaard, Lene V, Andersen, Thomas L, Dagnaes-Hansen, Frederik, Garnero, Patrick, ...

Abstract Introduction The urinary level of the type II collagen degradation marker CTX-II is increased in postmenopausal women and in ovariectomised rats, suggesting that oestrogen deprivation...

Distinct GAGE and MAGE-A expression during early human development indicate specific roles in lineage differentiation (2008)
