Chondrogenic differentiation of DPSCs and the analysis of chondrogenesis related gene expression by quantitative RT-qPCR. (A–E) Comparative gene expression analysis of chondrogenesis-related genes SOX9, COL2A1, ACAN, ELN, and COMP in chondrogenesis induced DPSCs with and without treatment with telomerase inhibitor and DPSCs treated with taurine alone. ns: not significant, * p < 0.05, ** p < 0.01. Induction: chondrogenic differentiation, Tau: taurine, TI-III: telomerase Inhibitor III, SOX9: SRY-box transcription factor 9, COL2A1: collagen, type II, alpha 1, ACAN: aggrecan, ELN: elastin, COMP: cartilage oligomeric matrix protein.
