Effects of CTGF/Hcs24, a product of a hypertrophic chondrocyte-specific gene, on the proliferation and differentiation of chondrocytes in culture.

TL;DR: Investigating CTGF/Hcs24 function in the chondrocytic cell line HCS-2/8 and rabbit growth cartilage (RGC) cells found that it proliferated more rapidly and expressed more mRNA of aggrecan and type X collagen than the control cells.
Journal ArticleDOI

Viral factor TAV recruits TOR/S6K1 signalling to activate reinitiation after long ORF translation.

TL;DR: Activation of reinitiation after long ORF translation is more complex than previously appreciated, with TOR/S6K1 upregulation being the key event in the formation of rein itiation‐competent ribosomal complexes.
Journal ArticleDOI

Hydrostatic pressure influences mRNA expression of transforming growth factor-beta 1 and heat shock protein 70 in chondrocyte-like cell line.

TL;DR: Hydstatic pressure at physiologic levels enhances the expression of transforkming growth factor‐β mRNA in addition to increasing proteoglycan synthesis in chondrocytes and that excessively high hydrostatic pressure reduces theexpression of transforming growth factor-β1 mRNA and increases the expressionof heat shock protein 79 mRNA while decreasing proteogly can synthesis.
