Abstract excerpt

We have isolated through sequential steps of subcloning a series of normal clonal cell lines enriched for chondroprogenitors that undergo differentiation in vitro from progenitors to mature chondroblasts and chondrocytes forming three-dimensional cartilage nodules. In the parental chondroblast cl...
