Abstract:
The degenerative osteoarthritis (DOA) is a common disease of aged people. But its pathogenesis and mechanism are not very clear. We compared the Nitric Oxide content in knee fluid of DOA with the normal people as matched age. The results indicated that the Nitric oxide has a high concentration in DOA. This suggested that the Nitric Oxide may play an important role in the mechanism of this disease.
