## Abstract ## Objective The use of bone marrowβderived mesenchymal stem cells (MSCs) has shown promise in cellβbased cartilage regeneration. A yetβunsolved problem, however, is the unwanted upβregulation of markers of hypertrophy, such as alkaline phosphatase (AP) and type X collagen, during in v
There are increasing reports that mesenchymal stem cells (MSCs) are present in various tissues other than bone marrow, including synovium. Here we investigated the optimal conditions for in vitro chondrogenesis of human synovium-derived MSCs and compared these cells with bone marrow-derived MSCs, es
