Chondrocyte density, proteoglycan content and gene expressions from native cartilage are species specific and not dependent on cartilage thickness: a comparative analysis between rat, rabbit and goat
BACKGROUND In many pre-clinical studies of cartilage tissue, it has been generally assumed that the major difference of the tissue between the species is the tissue thickness, which is related to the size of the animal itself. At present, there appear to be lack of studies demonstrating the relationship between chondrocyte densities, protein content, gene expressions and cartilage thickness in ...
متن کاملStudy of Expression Level of Cartilage Genes in Rat Articular Chondrocyte Monolayer and 3D Cultures using Real Time PCR
Purpose: to compare the expression level of certain genes related to cartilage and non-cartilage tissues at monolayer and alginate cultures derived from rat articular cartilage. Materials and Methods: Articular cartilage was harvested from knee joints of 10 male rats and was digested using enzymatic solution consisting of 0.2% collagenase I and 0.1% pronase. Released chondrocyte were then plate...
متن کاملStudy 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 کاملTransforming Growth Factor-β1 Preserves Bovine Nasal Cartilage against Degradation Induced by Interleukin-1α in Explant Culture
Background and Aims: Chondrocytes and their differentiation play a central role in joint diseases. Effect of the transforming growth factor (TGF)-β1 on chondrocyte characteristics and differentiation is not clearly understood. This study was undertaken to investigate the effects of TGF-β1 on tissue characteristics and morphology of chondrocytes against degradation induced by interleuk...
متن کاملStudy of Chondrogenic Effects of Chondrocytes Cocultured With Murine Bone Marrow-Derived Mesenchymal Stem Cells
Purpose: Co-culture systems of marrow derived mesenchymal stem cells (mMSCs) with mature chondrocytes have theoretically been considered as a putative way of MSCs chondrogenic differentiation. MSCs differentiated in this system could be used for transplantation purpose without of any need to their purification since the cells with which MSCs are co cultured are native cartilage cells. Despite o...
