In vitro and in vivo validation of human and goat chondrocyte labeling by green fluorescent protein lentivirus transduction [PDF]
, 2010 We investigated whether human articular chondrocytes can be labeled efficiently and for long-term with a green fluorescent protein (GFP) lentivirus and whether the viral transduction would influence cell proliferation and tissue-forming capacity.

Chondrocytes in the resting zone of the growth plate are maintained in a Wnt-inhibitory environment
eLife, 2021 Chondrocytes in the resting zone of the postnatal growth plate are characterized by slow cell cycle progression, and encompass a population of parathyroid hormone-related protein (PTHrP)-expressing skeletal stem cells that contribute to the formation of ...

Development of a peptide-siRNA nanocomplex targeting NF- κB for efficient cartilage delivery [PDF]
, 2019 Delivery of therapeutic small interfering RNAs (siRNAs) in an effective dose to articular cartilage is very challenging as the cartilage dense extracellular matrix renders the chondrocytes inaccessible, even to intra-articular injections. Herein, we used

Genome-wide microRNA and gene analysis of mesenchymal stem cell chondrogenesis identifies an essential role and multiple targets for miR-140-5p [PDF]
, 2015 microRNAs (miRNAs) are abundantly expressed in development where they are critical determinants of cell differentiation and phenotype. Accordingly miRNAs are essential for normal skeletal development and chondrogenesis in particular.
