To better understand the mechanisms responsible for the pathological processes of osteoarthritis (OA) and topotentially identify a profile of changes that could bepredictive of early OA, matrix metalloproteinase-1(MMP-1) and tissue inhibitor of matrix metalloproteinase-2 (TIMP-2) in the synovial fluid and serum ofnormal and osteoarthritic dogs were examined...
