1 Treatment of the injured rats with the beta-catenin inhibitor ICG-001 (oral gavage at 200mg/kg/day for 8days, commenced at day 2 post injury) enhanced COL2A1 gene expression (by qRT-PCR) and increased proportion of cartilage tissue (by histological analysis), but decreased level of osterix expression and amount of bone tissue, at the injury site by day 10 post-injury (n=8, P<0.01 compared to vehicle controls).

2 Consistently, in vitro studies with bone marrow stromal cells from normal rats showed that beta-catenin inhibitor ICG-001 dose dependently inhibited expression of Wnt target genes Cyclin D1 and survivin (P<0.01). Indocyanine Green catenin beta 1 Rattus norvegicus
