Abstract Introduction The etiology of degenerative disc disease is unknown. Several investigators have reported the presence of proteolytic enzymes such as the matrix metalloproteinase MMP and ADAMTS a disintegrin and metalloprotease with thrombospondin-like repeats families in degenerated human discs. Glasson and colleagues recently reported that a significant reduction occurs in the severity of cartilage destruction in ADAMTS5 knockout mice compared with wildtype mice. The .
