Inflammatory and transcriptional gene expression analysis. qPCR exhibited dramatically lower expression of most inflammatory related genes (IL8, CCL2 and CXCL12) in chondrocytes than in the other three cell types. Chondrocytes showed significantly up-regulated expression over synoviocytes and SFCs and significantly down-regulated expression of synoviocytes and SFCs in the context of SOX9 and RUNX2, respectively.
