Superficial and deep zone articular chondrocytes exhibit differences in actin polymerization status and actin-associated molecules in vitro

Summary: Objective: The actin cytoskeleton regulates cell shape and plays a role in regulating chondrocyte phenotype. Most studies investigating regulation of the chondrocyte phenotype by the actin cytoskeleton use chondrocytes isolated from full-thickness (FT) cartilage, which has a heterogeneous...
