THE exact role of the subchondral bony plate in osteoarthritis in man is unclear, since studies to date have been confined to spontaneous and induced experimental models in animals. Histologic material from man is rarely available and the microscopic anatomy cannot be studied in prospective studies. In order to explore the role of the subchondral bone as target for therapy, one might consider molecular markers of bone activity as an indirect measure of bone metabolism.
