Osteogenic differentiation of hypertrophic chondrocytes involves asymmetric cell divisions and apoptosis.
15 Oct 1995
Abstract excerpt
We have investigated the early cellular events that take place during the change in lineage commitment from hypertrophic chondrocytes to osteoblast-like cells. We have induced this osteogenic differentiation by cutting through the hypertrophic cartilage of embryonic chick femurs and culturing the explants. Immunocytochemical characterization, [3H]thymidine pulse-chase labeling, in situ nick translation or end...
