Hyaline cartilage ECM contains low densities of type II collagen fibers and an abundance of the proteoglycan, aggrecan, composing the ground substance. Water molecules embedded in the collagen matrix give

Importantly, tobacco can also induce changes in the RANK/RANKL/OPG pathway that regulates differentiation and activity of osteoclasts.22 Smokers were found to have significantly lower levels of OPG, which is a protein secreted by osteoblasts
