Biological context of COL1A2

  • RESULTS: We selected a culture for 15 or 17 days with collagen sponges seeded with 10(7) chondrocytes showing a minimal cell proliferation, a maximal sulphated glycosaminoglycan (sGAG) deposition and a high expression of COL2A1, aggrecan and the alpha10 integrin sub-unit and low expression of COL1A2 and the alpha11 integrin sub-unit [2].
