Time-course effect of the IL-1β and IL-17A combination on the expression of the genes associated with the cartilaginous matrix-degrading enzymes in porcine pellet culture. The pellets were cultured for up to 28 days under conditions in which they were stimulated by the combined cytokines (0.25 ng/mL of IL-1β in combination with 0.5 ng/mL of IL-17A). The untreated pellets were left as a control (Ctrl). The mRNA expressions of the pellets were analyzed by real-time qRT-PCR at the indicated times. Data are expressed as mean ± SD of two independent experiments. * = p < 0.05 and ** = p < 0.001.
