C-type natriuretic peptide overexpression in chondrocytes increases the expression of genes associated with cartilage anabolism. Results of quantitative real-time polymerase chain reaction analysis of primary chondrocyte cultures recovered from Col2a1-NPPC–transgenic mice and wild-type (WT) mice for several genes associated with cartilage growth are shown. Values are the mean ± SD. ∗ = P < 0.05.
