Death of chondrocytes in Kashin‐Beck disease: Apoptosis, necrosis or necroptosis?
1 Dec 2018
Abstract excerpt
The purpose of this paper was to investigate chondrocyte distribution and death in the cartilage in Kashin-Beck disease (KBD). Apoptotic chondrocytes were detected by TUNEL assay. Ultrastructural changes were examined by transmission electron microscope (TEM). Biochemical markers associated with apoptosis (eg, caspase-3) and necroptosis (eg, RIP3) were investigated by immunohistochemistry. In KBD cartilage...
