Combined 3D and hypoxic culture improves cartilage-specific gene expression in human chondrocytes

BACKGROUND AND PURPOSE: In vitro expansion of autologous chondrocytes is an essential part of many clinically used cartilage repair treatments. Native chondrocytes reside in a 3-dimensional (3D) network and are exposed to low levels of oxygen. We compared monolayer culture to combined 3D and hypoxic...
