Expression of a Constitutively Active Form of Hck in Chondrocytes Activates Wnt and Hedgehog Signaling Pathways, and Induces Chondrocyte Proliferation in Mice. [PDF]
Runx2 is required for chondrocyte proliferation and maturation. In the search of Runx2 target genes in chondrocytes, we found that Runx2 up-regulated the expression of hematopoietic cell kinase (Hck), which is a member of the Src tyrosine kinase family ...

Adipose-Derived Stem Cells Cocultured with Chondrocytes Promote the Proliferation of Chondrocytes [PDF]
Articular cartilage injury and defect caused by trauma and chronic osteoarthritis vascularity are very common, while the repair of injured cartilage remains a great challenge due to its limited healing capacity. Stem cell-based tissue engineering provides a promising treatment option for injured articular cartilage because of the cells potential for ...

miR-29b inhibits TGF-β1-induced cell proliferation in articular chondrocytes
Transforming growth factor β1 (TGF-β1) is a known regulator of chondrocyte proliferation and promotes cartilage repair in osteoarthritis (OA). microRNA-29b-3p (miR-29b-3p) is downregulated by TGF-β1 and overexpressed in OA cartilage. However, the ability
