Chondrocyte hypertrophy in the growth plate promotes stress anisotropy affecting long bone development through chondrocyte column formation [PDF]
The length of long bones is determined by column formation of proliferative chondrocytes and subsequent chondrocyte hypertrophy in the growth plate during bone development.

Although genetic evidence demonstrated a requirement for Wnt5a during cartilage development, little is known about the mechanisms underlying Wnt5a-regulated chondrocyte growth and differentiation. We therefore investigated the signaling pathways by which

Chondrocyte hypertrophy in development and disease
Whereas chondrocyte hypertrophy is a normal feature of skeletal growth, in adult chondrocytes it is associated with osteoarthritis (OA). We propose that collagen II fragments provide signals for hypertrophy in cartilage. The lack of collagen II fragments

Liver X Receptor activation delays chondrocyte hypertrophy during endochondral bone growth
SummaryObjectiveActivation of the Liver X Receptor (LXR) has recently been identified as a therapeutic strategy for osteoarthritis (OA). Human OA articular cartilage explants show decreased LXR expression, and LXRβ-null mice display OA-like symptoms. LXR

Prostaglandin E2 (PGE2) plays an important role in bone development and metabolism. To interfere therapeutically in the PGE2 pathway, however, knowledge about the involved enzymes (cyclooxygenases) and receptors (PGE2 receptors) is essential.
