OBJECTIVE Lipocalin-type prostaglandin D synthase (L-PGDS) catalyzes the formation of prostaglandin D2 (PGD2), which has important roles in inflammation and cartilage metabolism. The aim of this study was to investigate the role of L-PGDS in the pathogenesis of OA using an experimental mouse model. METHODS Experimental OA was induced in wild-type (WT), and L-PGDS- deficient (L-PGDS-/-) mice (n = 10 per genotype) by destabilization of the medial meniscus (DMM). Cartilage degradation was evaluated by histology. The expression o
