Histological (static and dynamic), serum, and RNA analyses indicate that a decrease in osteoblast maturation and function account for changes in bone density. Unlike some conditions ... Similar to reports in humans, bone length decreased and correlated with decreases in growth plate thickness and chondrocyte marker expression.

In tissue cultures of cartilage explants, nitrotyrosine staining, chondrocyte telomere length and GAG remaining in the cartilage tissue were lower in ROS-treated cartilages than in control groups, whereas the antioxidative agent treated group exhibited a tendency to maintain the chondrocyte telomere length and...

In conclusion, hypoxia promotes chondrocytic differentiation and cartilage matrix synthesis and suppresses terminal chondrocyte differentiation. These hypoxia-induced phenomena may act on chondrocytes to enhance and preserve their phenotype and function during chondrocyte differentiation and endochondral ossification.
