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.
退行性骨关节炎(DOA)是老年人的常见疾病。但其发病机制尚不完全清楚。我们比较了与DOA患者年龄匹配的正常人膝关节液中的一氧化氮含量。结果表明,DOA患者膝关节液中一氧化氮浓度较高。这表明一氧化氮可能在该疾病的发病机制中起重要作用。
