C20A4 Human Chondrocyte Cell Line

Descrição detalhada : The chondrocyte is the only specialized cell type present in articular cartilage. They produce secretions to support and repair the cartilage matrix. Human chondrocytes in mature articular cartilage are post-mitotic and terminally differentiated cells. Studies on human chondrocytes have been hampered by the difficulty in obtaining sufficient numbers of primary human chondrocytes from a single joint and by variabilities among donors due to factors such as age and medical conditions.C-20/A4 cell line was established by transfecting primary cultures of rib chondrocytes from a 5-year-old male with vectors expressing origin-defective simian virus SV40 large T antigen.
