Metabolomic Profiling and Characterization of a Novel 3D Culture System for Studying Chondrocyte Mechanotransduction
2024-06-12
Abstract excerpt
<h4>Background/Objective</h4> Articular chondrocytes synthesize and maintain the avascular and aneural articular cartilage. In vivo these cells are surrounded by a 3D pericellular matrix (PCM) containing predominantly collagen VI. The PCM protects chondrocytes and facilitates mechanotransduction. PCM stiffness is critical in transmitting biomechanical signals to chondrocytes. Various culture systems with differe...
