Molecular Mechanisms of Chondrocyte Proliferation and Differentiation [PDF]
Cartilage is a kind of connective tissue that buffers pressure and is essential to protect joint movement. It is difficult to self-recover once cartilage is damaged due to the lack of blood vessels, lymph, and nerve tissues. Repair of cartilage injury is

Low fluid shear stress promotes chondrocyte proliferation and extracellular matrix secretion by downregulating mir-143-3p and activating the ERK5/KLF4 signaling pathway [PDF]
Low fluid shear stress (FSS, ≤ 2 dyn/cm2) has been shown to exert protective effects on chondrocytes, but the underlying molecular mechanisms remain unclear. This study aimed to elucidate the mechanisms by which FSS promotes chondrocyte proliferation and

Atoh8 acts as a regulator of chondrocyte proliferation and differentiation in endochondral bones. [PDF]
Atonal homolog 8 (Atoh8) is a transcription factor of the basic helix-loop-helix (bHLH) protein family, which is expressed in the cartilaginous elements of endochondral bones. To analyze its function during chondrogenesis we deleted Atoh8 in mice using a

G-protein-coupled estrogen receptor-1 facilitates chondrocyte proliferation in pubertal epiphyseal growth plate via PTHrP/Ihh regulation [PDF]
Aims: Oestrogen drives long-bone development through various oestrogen receptors. G-protein-coupled oestrogen receptor-1 (GPER-1), a membrane oestrogen receptor, mediates longitudinal bone growth during early puberty; however, the underlying mechanisms ...

Molecular mechanisms of long bone growth and chondrocyte regulation: A narrative review [PDF]
Long bone growth is a fundamental determinant of final height. Growth, metabolism, and differentiation of chondrocytes, which are the key cellular players in this process, are regulated by systemic hormones, local factors, and cellular signaling pathways.
