1 | Lubricin is expressed in chondrocytes derived from osteoarthritic cartilage encapsulated in poly (ethylene glycol) diacrylate scaffold. | poly(ethylene glycol)diacrylate | proteoglycan 4 | Homo sapiens |
2 | The expression levels of lubricin were studied by immunohistochemistry: i) in tissue explanted from OA and normal human cartilage; ii) in chondrocytes encapsulated in hydrogel PEGDA from OA and normal human cartilage. | poly(ethylene glycol)diacrylate | proteoglycan 4 | Homo sapiens |
3 | The chondrocytes from OA cartilage after 5 weeks of culture in hydrogels (PEGDA) showed an increased expression of lubricin compared with the control cartilage. | poly(ethylene glycol)diacrylate | proteoglycan 4 | Homo sapiens |
4 | The present study demonstrated that OA chondrocytes encapsulated in PEGDA, grown in the scaffold and were able to restore lubricin biosynthesis. | poly(ethylene glycol)diacrylate | proteoglycan 4 | Homo sapiens |
