Growth differentiation factor-5 enhances in vitro mesenchymal stromal cell chondrogenesis and hypertrophy
(Mary Ann Liebert Inc, 2013-07-01)The regenerative potential for adult bone marrow-derived mesenchymal stromal cells (MSCs) has been extensively investigated in the setting of arthritic disease and focal cartilage defects. In vitro chondrogenic differentiation ... -
The effect of remodelling and contractility of the actin cytoskeleton on the shear resistance of single cells: a computational and experimental investigation
(The Royal Society, 2012-07-18)The biomechanisms that govern the response of chondrocytes to mechanical stimuli are poorly understood. In this study, a series of in vitro tests are performed, in which single chondrocytes are subjected to shear deformation ...
