Effects of Culture Conditions and Bone Morphogenetic Protein 2 on Extent of Chondrogenesis from Human Embryonic Stem Cells

11 Jan 2007

Abstract excerpt

The study of human embryonic stem cells (hESCs) can provide invaluable insights into the development of numerous human cell and tissue types in vitro. In this study, we addressed the potential of hESCs to undergo chondrogenesis and demonstrated the potential of hESC-derived embryoid bodies (EBs) to undergo a well-defined full-span chondrogenesis from chondrogenic induction to hypertrophic maturation. We compared...
