Background

Osteomodulin (OMD) is a keratan sulfate proteoglycan and a member of the SLRP family. OMD was originally isolated and characterized from bone and shown to be strongly expressed by osteoblasts. Although OMD is considered to be mainly expressed in bone, its expression has been observed in other cell types, such as articular chondrocytes and fibrochondrocytes.
