Abstract: The present invention relates to the use of cyclin-dependent kinase 9 (CDK9) inhibitors to reduce, inhibit and/or prevent cartilage degradation. CDK9 inhibitors can be used to reduce, inhibit and/or prevent cartilage degradation and loss of cartilage viability during allograft storage. CDK9 inhibitors can be used as a post-injury intervention treatment to reduce, inhibit and/or prevent the acute cellular responses that lead to future cartilage degradation and osteoarthritis.

Abstract: Provided are methods for the combined use of cyclin-dependent kinase 9 (CDK9) inhibitors and bromodomain containing 4 (BRD4) inhibitors to reduce, inhibit and/or prevent cartilage degradation and systemic traumatic inflammation. A combination of CDK9 inhibitors and BRD4 inhibitors can be used to reduce, inhibit and/or prevent cartilage degradation and loss of cartilage viability during allograft storage. A combination of CDK9 inhibitors and BRD4 inhibitors can be used as a post-injury intervention treatment to reduce, inhibit and/or prevent the acute cellular responses that lead to future cartilage degradation and osteoarthritis.

Abstract: The present invention relates to protein complexes or scaffold comprising cartilage oligomeric matrix protein (COMP) polypeptides bound to one or more growth factors, and methods of their use in promoting chondrogenesis and/or osteogenesis, and repair of cartilage and bone lesions.

Abstract: This invention relates, first, to the discovery of IL-17RL, a receptor for members of the IL-17 cytokine family, particularly IL-17B. IL-17RL is naturally expressed from a 19-exon gene as a 720 amino acid protein and as any of 11 splice variants created from differential splicing of the 19 exons. The invention further relates to the discovery that IL-17B is involved in catabolic degradation of bone and cartilage and that bone and cartilage disorders can be ameliorated by pharmacological manipulation of IL-17B by antibodies or by using IL-17RL as a decoy to reduce IL-17B related catabolic activity. Methods for diagnosing cartilage disorders, and pharmaceutical compositions for slowing or ameliorating bone and cartilage pathologies are also provided.
