Differential expression of type X collagen in a mechanically active 3-D chondrocyte culture system: a quantitative study

OBJECTIVE: Mechanical loading of cartilage influences chondrocyte metabolism and gene expression. The gene encoding type X collagen is expressed specifically by hypertrophic chondrocytes and up regulated during osteoarthritis. In this study we tested the hypothesis that the mechanical microenvironme...
