Abstract excerpt
UNLABELLED: Runx proteins mediate skeletal development. We studied the regulation of Runx1 during chondrocyte differentiation by real-time RT-PCR and its function during chondrogenesis using overexpression and RNA interference. Runx1 induces mesenchymal stem cell commitment to the early stages of chondrogenesis. INTRODUCTION: Runx1 and Runx2 are co-expressed in limb bud cell condensations that undergo both...
