Abstract

We developed an in vitro co-culture model to study the impact of stimulation of macrophage by cartilage fragments on the expression of chondrocyte carbolic factors. Our results revealed that cartilage fragments triggered macrophages inflammatory response that enhanced the production of chondrocyte catabolic factors.
