## Abstract During monolayer culture, articular chondrocytes dedifferentiate into fibroblastβlike cells. The mechanisms underlying this process are poorly understood. We sought to further characterize dedifferentiation by identifying an extended panel of genes that distinguish articular cartilage f

## Abstract MicroRNA has an important role in regulating gene expression during cell differentiation. In this study we identified the expression pattern of microRNA in the differentiated and dedifferentiated chondrocytes. Adult human articular chondrocytes were cultured in monolayer. RNA was isolat
## Abstract Chondrocyte phenotype has been shown to dedifferentiate during passaged monolayer cultivation. Hence, we have investigated the expression profile of 27 chondrocyteβassociated genes from both osteoarthritic cartilage tissue and healthy passaged human articular chondrocytes by quantitativ
