Abstract excerpt
STUDY DESIGN: We demonstrated the differentiation of notochordal cells by direct observation using a live automated cell imaging system. We also hypothesized that notochordal cells have characteristics of chondrocyte-like cells. OBJECTIVE: To determine characteristics of notochordal cells by matrix protein expression and their differentiation using a live automated cell imager. SUMMARY OF BACKGROUND DATA:...
