This modification directly modulates transcriptional activity and gene expression, thereby establishing a mechanistic link between cellular metabolism and transcriptional regulation (107,108)
For instance, TNF has been shown to induce the release of mitochondrial DNA (mtDNA), which then activates cGAS-STING-mediated IFN responses, contributing to the progression of arthritis
However, while the interactions between the TGF family and LOX have been previously investigated in various tissues, they are not well understood in tendon and necessitate further study
