Effects of hypoxia on anabolic and catabolic gene expression and DNA methylation in OA chondrocytes
BACKGROUND: Cartilage is an avascular and aneural tissue. Chondrocytes thrive in this restricted environment of low oxygen tension and poor nutrient availability which has led to suggestions that hypoxia may be a protective mechanism against the development of osteoarthritis (OA). There is also a gr...
