Anabolic and catabolic responses of human articular chondrocytes to varying oxygen percentages [PDF]

, 2010
Oxygen is a critical parameter proposed to modulate the functions of chondrocytes ex-vivo as well as in damaged joints. This article investigates the effect of low (more physiological) oxygen percentage on the biosynthetic and catabolic activity of human
