ADAMTS‐4 is repeatedly shown to play critical roles in extracellular matrix (ECM) remodeling across different tissues—for example, in cartilage degradation in osteoarthritis and arthritis models, in ovarian follicle development, and in proteolytic processing of key ECM proteins such as versican and Reelin (see, for instance, studies on ADAMTS expression and function in the mouse ovary, cartilage, and brain ["}, {"type": "fg", "children": [{"type": "fg_fs", "start_ref": "1", "end_ref": "7"}]}, {"type": "t", "text": "])."}]}, {"type": "t", "text": "\n\n"}, {"type": "p", "children": [{"type": "t", "text": "\nMoreover, several of these studies underscore that ADAMTS‐4’s expression and proteolytic activity are finely tuned in both physiological and pathological settings. For example, in the context of aortic aneurysm development and vascular inflammation, ADAMTS‐4 levels correlate with proteoglycan degradation and tissue remodeling, while in the central nervous system its activity impacts synaptic function and myelination. Such regulatory cascades are further modulated by microRNAs in other systems—for instance, miR‐126a‐5p and miR‐329‐3p have been shown to limit ADAMTS‐4 expression in vascular and hepatic injury models (see ["}, {"type": "fg", "children": [{"type": "fg_f", "ref": "8"}]}, {"type": "t", "text": "]).
