Addition of human, recombinant interleukin-1 p (hrlL-1 p) to cultures of lapine articular chondrocytes provoked a delayed increase in the production of both nitric oxide (NO) and lactate. These two phenomena followed a similar time course and shared a parallel dose-response sensitivity to hrlL-1 p.

## Abstract ## Objective To deliver and overexpress the __hsp70__ gene in cultured chondrocytes to investigate its effect on nitric oxide (NO)βinduced apoptosis of chondrocytes. ## Methods Primary chondrocyte cultures were established from rabbit joints. The cells were transduced with an empty a
It has been previously demonstrated that microglia and astrocytes produce micromolar amounts of nitric oxide in vitro. In this study, we demonstrate that primary rat oligodendrocytes can be stimulated to produce iNOS mRNA as detected by Northern blot and in situ hybridization analysis and a 131-kDa
## Abstract Mechanical loading alters the metabolism of articular cartilage, possibly due to effects of shear stress on chondrocytes. In cultured chondrocytes, glycosaminoglycan synthesis increases in response to fluidinduced shear. This study tested the hypothesis that shear stress increases nitri
## Abstract In the absence of in vivo measurements, the oxygen concentration within articular cartilage is calculated from the balance between cellular oxygen consumption and mass transfer. Current estimates of the oxygen tension within articular cartilage are based on oxygen consumption data from
