Physiological tonicity improves human chondrogenic marker expression through nuclear factor of activated T-cells 5 in vitro
INTRODUCTION: Chondrocytes experience a hypertonic environment compared with plasma (280 mOsm) due to the high fixed negative charge density of cartilage. Standard isolation of chondrocytes removes their hypertonic matrix, exposing them to nonphysiological conditions. During in vitro expansion, chon...
