Fig 3. Changes in telomere length and telomerase activity of nucleus pulposus chondrocytes (NPCs) during long-term culture.

Fig 3

Both (A) telomere length and (B) telomerase activity of NPCs exhibited a steady decline with advancing population doubling. Telomere lengths are provided in kilobases (kb) and the level of telomerase activity as relative telomerase activity (RTA).
