The Critical Role of Hypoxia in the Re-Differentiation of Human Articular Chondrocytes
The preservation of the chondrogenic phenotype and hypoxia-related physiological microenvironment are major challenges in the 2D culture of primary human chondrocytes. To address this problem, we develop a 3D culture system generating scaffold-free spheroids from human chondrocytes. Our results high...
