Expression patterns of chondrocyte genes cloned by differential display in tibial dyschondroplasia [PDF]

open access: yes, 2000
Tibial dyschondroplasia (TD) appears to involve a failure of the growth plate chondrocytes within growing long bones to differentiate fully to the hypertrophic stage, resulting in a mass of prehypertrophic chondrocytes which form the avascular TD lesion.

Immunological Response against Allogeneic Chondrocytes Transplanted into Joint Surface Defects in Rats

open access: yesCell Transplantation, 1997
Rat chondrocytes isolated from the articular–epiphyseal cartilage complex were transplanted into defects prepared in articular cartilage and subchondral bone. Transplants were taken for examination after 3 and 8 wk.

Investigating transcription factor dynamics in health and disease using FRAP

open access: yesFEBS Letters, EarlyView.
FRAP analysis of GFP‐tagged transcription factors reveals how molecular mobility and target engagement change in response to drug treatment. By combining live‐cell imaging, quantitative model fitting, and statistical analysis, this approach uncovers transcription factor dynamics linked to disease mechanisms, providing a powerful framework for ...

Ozone induces autophagy by activating PPARγ/mTOR in rat chondrocytes treated with IL-1β

open access: yesJournal of Orthopaedic Surgery and Research, 2022
Background Osteoarthritis (OA) is the main cause of older pain and disability. Intra-articular injections of ozone (O3) commonly have been found to have antioxidative and anti-inflammatory effects to reduce pain and improve function in knee ...

The chondrocyte primary cilium [PDF]

open access: yesOsteoarthritis and Cartilage, 2014
The presence and role of primary, or non-motile, cilia on chondrocytes has confused cartilage researchers for decades. Initial explanations attributed a vestigial nature to chondrocyte cilia. Evidence is now emerging that supports the role of the chondrocyte primary cilium as a sensory organelle, in particular, in mechanotransduction and as a ...

DNA demethylation at specific CpG sites in the IL1B promoter in response to inflammatory cytokines in human articular chondrocytes

open access: yes, 2009
Objective: to determine whether changes in the DNA methylation status in the promoter region of the gene encoding interleukin-1? (IL-1?) account for expression of IL1B mRNA after long-term treatment of human articular chondrocytes with inflammatory ...

From energy provision to protein synthesis: Tunnelling nanotubes as mediators of intercellular metabolic cooperation in cancer

open access: yesFEBS Open Bio, EarlyView.
The cytoskeleton‐mediated transport of mitochondria via tunnelling nanotubes restores respiration, increases ATP production, rescues cells from apoptosis, activates the AKT/mTOR signalling pathway, promotes cell migration and invasiveness, contributes to cancer progression and treatment resistance.

Effects of cell phenotype and seeding density on the chondrogenic capacity of human osteoarthritic chondrocytes in type I collagen scaffolds

open access: yesJournal of Orthopaedic Surgery and Research, 2020
Objective Matrix-associated autologous chondrocyte implantation (MACI) achieves good clinical efficacy in young patients with focal cartilage injury; however, phenotypic de-differentiation of chondrocytes cultured in monolayer and the treatment of older ...
