PY - 2013 SN - 0021-9258 UR - http://hdl.handle.net/20.500.11940/3542 AB - The role of DNA methylation in the regulation of catabolic genes such as MMP13 and IL1B, which have sparse CpG islands, is poorly understood in the context of musculoskeletal diseases. We report that demethylation of specific CpG sites at -110 bp and...
