A diagram representation of the chondrocyte changes in both a normoxic and hypoxic culture environment. Changes in HIF-1α expression levels leads to changes in chondrocyte cellular function and autophagic response to inflammatory insult. Silencing chondrocyte HIF-1α impairs cellular autophagic function which activates cellular mitophagy pathway, leading to chondrocyte cell death.
