Expressions of local renin-angiotensin system components in chondrocytes
In 2013, we reported that local renin-angiotensin system (local RAS) components express during the hypertrophic differentiation of chondrocytes and can modulate it, using ATDC5 cell line that involves differentiation from mesenchymal stem cells to ...

Metaplasia of Chondrocytes into Osteoblasts
Hypertrophic chondrocytes, commonly considered as terminal cells responsible for apoptotic elimination in endochondral osteogenesis, have the potential to switch their metabolic role and enter osteoblastic differentiation, based on histochemical, immunohistochemical, biochemical and cytological analysis.

In Vivo Chondrocyte Mechanics [PDF]
Mechanical loading of joints deforms articular cartilage cells, and that these cells provide the signals for maintaining cartilage health. Excessive loading of cartilage and cells leads to cartilage degeneration and osteoarthritis.Recently, we developed a novel in vivo testing system that allows for quantification of the mechano-biology of chondrocytes
