Example sentences for: chondrocytes

How can you use “chondrocytes” in a sentence? Here are some example sentences to help you improve your vocabulary:

  • In Hoxc-8 transgenic chondrocytes, we found increased expression of Collagen II splice form A mRNA [ 24 ] . This is consistent with our earlier finding of at least 2-fold increased Collagen II mRNA expression by in situ hybridization and increased numbers of immature chondrocytes in Hoxc-8 transgenic mice [ 1 ] . Sox-5, which is normally expressed in proliferating chondrocytes [ 25 26 ] , is elevated in Hoxc-8 transgenic cells, again consistent with accumulation of immature chondrocytes.

  • Interestingly, when primary chondrocytes from Hoxc-8 transgenic mice were assayed, they showed the same cell cycle kinetics as chondrocytes from control animals.

  • The role of growth factors in IL-1-dependent effects is not clear cut, since IL-1 can both induce and inhibit proliferation of chondrocytes [ 17].

  • Marrow stroma includes a subpopulation of undifferentiated cells that are capable of becoming one of a number of phenotypes, including chondrocytes, osteoblasts, adipocytes, fibroblasts, possibly muscle cells, and the reticular cells that support hematopoietic cell differentiation [ 1, 2].

  • At the beginning of each experiment, chondrocytes or OA synovial fibroblasts were washed three times with Hanks balanced salt solution (Cellgro) to remove traces of serum, and placed in DMEM containing 0.2% lactalbumin hydrolysate (Invitrogen, Carlsbad, CA, USA).
