Afshari A, Chang V, Thomsson K, Hoglund J, Browne E, Karadzhov G, et al.
Mol Cell Proteomics . 2025 Feb; 24(3):100923. PMID: 39922311
Lubricin/proteoglycan-4 (PRG-4) is a mucinous glycoprotein that lubricates cartilage and maintains normal tissue function and cell homeostasis. Altered O-glycoproteforms of lubricin have been found in osteoarthritis (OA) synovial fluid (SF),...

Huang S, Thomsson K, Jin C, Ryberg H, Das N, Struglics A, et al.
Front Mol Biosci . 2022 Oct; 9:942406. PMID: 36213120
The primary aim of the study was to identify inflammatory markers relevant for osteoarthritis (OA)-related systemic (plasma) and local (synovial fluid, SF) inflammation. From this, we looked for inflammatory markers...

Ann Rheum Dis . 2022 Apr; 81(8):1085-1095. PMID: 35470158
Objectives: To find causal genes for rheumatoid arthritis (RA) and its seropositive (RF and/or ACPA positive) and seronegative subsets. Methods: We performed a genome-wide association study (GWAS) of 31 313...

Huang S, Thomsson K, Jin C, Alweddi S, Struglics A, Rolfson O, et al.
Sci Rep . 2020 Mar; 10(1):4215. PMID: 32144329
Lubricin (PRG4) is a mucin type protein that plays an important role in maintaining normal joint function by providing lubrication and chondroprotection. Improper lubricin modification and degradation has been observed...

Flowers S, Zieba A, Ornros J, Jin C, Rolfson O, Bjorkman L, et al.
Sci Rep . 2017 Oct; 7(1):13149. PMID: 29030641
Lubricin, a heavily O-glycosylated protein, is essential for boundary lubrication of articular cartilage. Strong surface adherence of lubricin is required given the extreme force it must withstand. Disulfide bound complexes...
