Study 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 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 کاملThe comparison of the effect of an aerobic training period and ozone therapy on gene expression of Beclin-1, AMPK and mTOR of articular cartilage tissue in rats model of osteoarthritis
Introduction The aim of the research was to investigate the effect of 8 weeks’ exercise training and ozone therapy on articular cartilage tissue mRNA Beclin-1, AMPK, and mTOR gene expression in rat’s model of osteoarthritis (OA). Materials and Methods In this experimental study, 40 adult male rats 210±10 gr were randomly divided into 5 groups: 1) control (CN), 2) OA, 3) OA + ozone, 4) OA + ex...
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 کاملCostal Versus Articular Chondrocytes in Alginate Three-Dimensional Cultures
Given the difficulties in accessing articular cartilage as a source of chondrocytes to be used in fabricating cartilage constructs, alternative sources are required. The present study examined chondrocytes from costal cartilage for their suitability in cartilage tissue engineering. Chondrocytes isolated from rat knee and rib hyaline cartilage were separately mixed with alginate and placed in a ...
