Science Daily — Using a method that allows precise measurement of the biomechanical properties of the hip joints in mice, researchers at Duke University's Pratt School of Engineering have found new evidence that an ingredient of joint fluid called lubricin plays a significant role in keeping joints limber. The researchers say the finding offers the strongest evidence yet that treatments designed to increase levels of lubricin in humans may help stall the deterioration of arthritic joints. Is there any way for the public to get injections of Lubricin? What about increasing it thru other methods/

This is not a Q&A thread on lubricin, nor is this a place to get valid medical advice. I will delete this comment after a few days. Please only discuss matters of direct relevance to improving the article here. Lesotho 02:16, 21 February 2007 (UTC)[reply]

Correct reference for superficial zone protein (SZP)

The correct reference for superficial zone protein (SZP) is A novel proteoglycan synthesized and secreted by chondrocytes of the superficial zone of articular cartilage.
