Expression of FSHR in chondrocytes and the effect of FSH on chondrocytes

Biochemical and Biophysical Research Communications, 2018
Chondrocytes express many kinds of hormone receptors. The function of Follicle stimulating hormone (FSH) in the ovary is mediated by FSH receptor (FSHR). FSH receptor (FSHR) is found in many non-ovarian tissues, however it has been unclear if chondrocytes express FSHR.

Molecular characterisation of chondrocytes in autologous chondrocyte implantation

International Journal of Molecular Medicine, 2004
Autologous chondrocyte implantation (ACI) relies on the use of cultured cells. However, the biosynthetic profile of cultured chondrocytes is shown to be altered during in vitro expansion. The purpose of this study therefore, was to examine the cellular phenotype of chondrocytes cultured for ACI and to determine the apoptotic index of cells implanted ...

Chondrocyte Differentiation

1995
Data obtained while investigating growth plate chondrocyte differentiation during endochondral bone formation both in vivo and in vitro indicate that initial chondrogenesis depends on positional signaling mediated by selected homeobox-containing genes and soluble mediators.

Autologous Chondrocyte Implantation

The Journal of Bone & Joint Surgery, 2006
Injuries to joint surfaces can result from acute high-impact or repetitive shear and torsional loads to the superficial zone of the articular cartilage architecture. The use of autologous chondrocyte implantation is promising and is associated with several potential long-term benefits.

A biography of the chondrocyte

Annals of the Rheumatic Diseases, 2008
Significant gaps persist in our understanding of chondrocyte biology. We do not know when, how, or even whether these cells are replenished throughout the normal, human life span. We are taught that as much as 90% of the cartilage is "metabolically inert" interterritorial matrix, but we do not know how this substance is regularly replaced (as it is ...

Tissue Engineering with Chondrocytes

Facial Plastic Surgery, 2002
Tissue engineering of cartilage, using chondrocytes based on the use of synthetic biodegradable polymer cell delivery vehicles (scaffolds), is an alternate treatment modality for replacing missing cartilage. Cartilage tissue engineering has an important role to play in the generation of graft material for head and neck reconstruction. It is an approach

Phenotype of chondrocytes in osteoarthritis

Biorheology, 2008
Articular cartilage is composed by a unique cell population, the chondrocytes, embedded in an abundant extra-cellular matrix (ECM). Growth, differentiation and homeostasis of the cartilage are regulated by an intricate interplay between the chondrocytes and ECM, which allows the matrix to send signals to the chondrocytes and the chondrocytes to sense ...

Single cilia in chondrocytes

Journal of Ultrastructure Research, 1967
Electron microscopic investigation of embryonic mouse radii reveals that chondrocytes in epiphyseal cartilage can form single cilia. The cilia can be distinguished from ordinary microvilli by their greater length and the organization of their bases, which are formed by a centriole accompanied by a second one in the near neighborhood.

Mitochondrial granules in chondrocytes

Calcified Tissue Research, 1969
Rat and mice epiphyseal growth plates were studied with the electron microscope. A gradient of mitochondrial electron-dense granules was found. Chondrocytes in the proliferative zone had few granules, while those of the succeeding zones showed a gradual increase in number and density until the zone of provisional calcification was reached.
