Study of Differentiation Potential of the Dedifferentiated Chondrocytes From Rat Articular Cartilage into Skeletal Cell Lineages
Purpose: Dedifferentiation of the chondrocyte from rat articular cartilage with multiple subcultures and study of the redifferentiation potential of the cells into bone, cartilage and fat cell lineages. Materials and Methods: In this experimental study, chondrocytes from rat articular cartilage were isolated and expanded through several successive subcultures during which the expression levels ...
متن کاملQuantitative Analysis of the Proliferation and Differentiation of Rat Articular Chondrocytes in Alginate 3D Culture
Background: While articular chondrocytes are among those appropriate candidates for cartilage regeneration, the cell dedifferentiation during monolayer culture has limited their application. Several investigations have indicated the usefulness of alginate, but the topic of proliferation and differentiation of chondrocytes in alginate culture has still remained controversial. Methods: Rat articu...
متن کاملCo-Culture of Mesenchymal Stem Cells with Mature Chondrocytes: Producing Cartilage Construct for Application in Cartilage Regeneration
Background: Cell-based treatment approach using differentiated mesenchymal stem cells (MSCs) and mature chondrocytes has been considered as an advanced treatment for cartilage repair. We investigated the differentiated level of these two cell types that is crucial for their repair capacity for cartilage defect at a co-culture micro mass system. Methods: Passaged-2 MSCs isolated from the mouse b...
متن کاملBlastema from rabbit ear contains progenitor cells comparable to marrow derived mesenchymal stem cells
Rabbits have the capacity to regenerate holes in their ears by forming a blastema, a tissue that is made up of a group of undifferentiated cells. The purpose of the present study was to isolate and characterize blastema progenitor cells and compare them with marrow mesenchymal stem cells (MSCs). Five New Zealand white male rabbits were used in the present study. A 2-mm hole was created in the a...
متن کاملCD147 (Extracellular Matrix Metalloproteinase Inducer-EMMPRIN) Expression by Human Articular Chondrocytes
Background: Integrins are a family of transmembrane proteins that allow communication between the extracellular matrix and the interior of cells. Chondrocytes, cells of articular cartilage, express integrins and these molecules appear to have a variety of roles including mechanotransduction. Integrins are known to associate with a number of accessory molecules such as CD147 that may act to regu...
