• 4 weeks after destabilization surgery, mice have 40% less structural damage to cartilage than in wild-type mice and by 8 weeks post surgery, the damage is 52% of that seen in wild-type mice
• cartilage erosions in an antigen-induced inflammatory arthritis model are less severe and attempts to repair the damage are evident
