With respect to gonadal function, Adamts19 (a disintegrin and metalloproteinase domain, with thrombospondin type-1 modules), significantly up-regulated in 20\% CR, 40\% CR and HFG diets, has been shown to be expressed in multiple tissues, and in particular the testes

Furthermore, we show in mice and in human cartilage explants that pharmacological or genetic inhibition of Hh signaling reduces the severity of osteoarthritis and that runt-related transcription factor-2 (RUNX2) potentially mediates this process by regulating a disintegrin and metalloproteinase with thrombospondin type 1 motif-5 (ADAMTS5) expression.
