The chondrocyte

The International Journal of Biochemistry & Cell Biology, 2003
The chondrocyte is the resident cell of cartilage that is a prominent tissue in the embryo acting as a template for the development of skeletal elements. In the adult, the distribution of permanent cartilage is much more restricted and is necessary for mechanical support, growth and movement.

Chondrocyte transplantation

Arthroscopy: The Journal of Arthroscopic & Related Surgery, 1996
The transplantation of chondrocytes as a treatment to repair defects and degeneration in hyaline articular cartilage is being tested in numerous laboratory and clinical settings. This has included transplanting chondrocytes grown in tissue culture that were procured from non-weight-bearing areas of the affected joint to transplanting allografts with ...

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.

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 ...

Autologous chondrocyte transplantation

Operative Techniques in Sports Medicine, 2000
Since its introduction in 1987, autologous chondrocyte transplantation (ACT) for the management of full-thickness chondral defects of the knee has gained considerable attention and has renewed interest in cartilage repair. At this time there are patients with 10 to 13 years of follow-up who have continued to benefit from ACT.

Catering to chondrocytes

Science Translational Medicine, 2018
An innovative strategy for delivering drugs to chondrocytes in situ offers new avenues for treating osteoarthritis (Geiger et al ., this issue).

Autologous Chondrocyte Transplantation

Clinical Orthopaedics and Related Research, 1999
The intrinsic capacity of cartilage to repair chondral injuries is poor. Different techniques to induce cartilage repair with the use of extrinsic chondrogeneic cell sources have been explored in experimental models. Cells can be harvested autologously or as allografts from a healthy part of the donor tissue, isolated, expanded in vitro, and finally ...

Chondrocyte Isolation and Expansion

2022
Chondrocyte isolation requires a combination of enzymatic and mechanical digestion of cartilaginous tissues in order to release the chondrocytes. Extracted primary chondrocytes will then adhere to standard tissue culture plastics, typically in small clusters, over a period of a few days in monolayer culture.

In situ chondrocyte viscoelasticity

Journal of Biomechanics, 2012
It has been proposed, based on theoretical considerations, that the strain rate-dependent viscoelastic response of cartilage reduces local tissue and cell deformations during cyclic compressions. However, experimental studies have not addressed the in situ viscoelastic response of chondrocytes under static and dynamic loading conditions. In particular,
