chondrocytes, which are cells that build up cartilage.
One exciting potential for Permacol is that it can be seeded with the patient's own cells, so that in the future it may be possible to repair cartilage or bone
by seeding with

«Our paper is a blueprint of how the cartilage - producing cell, called a
chondrocyte, is made and maintained
by Sox9,» said He, a postdoctoral research associate in the lab of Andy McMahon, director of the Eli and Edythe Broad Center for Regenerative Medicine and Stem Cell Research at USC.
The Rho - kinase inhibition stimuli under low oxygen conditions (of 5 percent oxygen atmosphere), which is a condition corresponding to conditions in the body's cartilage, produced a more effective increase in
chondrocyte - specific gene expression and synthesis of extracellular matrix components
by HCS - 2 / 8 cells.
The findings suggest that reductions in the number of cartilage - producing cells, and greater risk for osteoarthritis, may be driven not just
by lower adenosine levels but also
by lower levels of the protein on the surface of
chondrocytes designed to receive and pass on adenosine's signal.
By contrast, the R206H ACVR1 mutant only slightly enhances the expression of initial and early chondrogenesis markers (collagen type II and aggrecan), consistent with a milder stimulatory effect of the FOP ACVR1 mutation on
chondrocyte differentiation.
A short - term inhibition of Rho - kinase failed to induce extracellular matrix production in fibroblasts or in HCS - 2 / 8 cells, while its long - term exposure increased the expressions of
chondrocyte - specific genes and differentiation markers, and also promoted the synthesis of sulfated glycosaminoglycans
by chondrocytic cells.
Interestingly, Rho kinase inhibition under hypoxic conditions produced a more effective increase in
chondrocyte - specific gene expression and synthesis of extracellular matrix components
by HCS - 2 / 8 cells.

by expanded osteoarthritic
chondrocytes.

by cartilage cells that are called
chondrocytes.
Specifically, MSCs are usually confirmed to be MSCs
by showing that they can differentiate into three different, standard mesenchymal cell types: osteocytes (bone),
chondrocytes (cartilage), and adipocytes (fat).

by SOX9 itself and
by other factors.
