Abstract excerpt
We have examined in vitro the spontaneous and regulated expression of phenotypic characteristics associated with differentiated chondrocytes in an established skeletal cell line (CFK2) derived from fetal rat calvariae. Extended culture of CFK2 cells resulted in the appearance of glycosaminoglycans and type II collagen in the cell layer in association with the formation of focal nodes of cells. In addition,...
