ABSTRACT

Objective To assess the regulating effects of interleukin-1? (IL-1?) on gene expression of Bax mRNA in human hyaline chondrocyte.Methods Hyaline chondrocytes of human were harvested enzymatically and cultured in DMEM supplemented with 20% bovine serum.In the experiment,various concentrations of IL-1? were added to the medium.The effects of IL-1? on the Bax mRNA were assessed by reverse transcriptase polymerase chain reaction (RT-PCR) in the passaged monolayer cell cultures of hyaline chondrocyte.Results IL-1? increased the Bax mRNA level in passaged cultures of hyaline chondrocyte.The difference was significant (P
