Expression profiles from chondrocytes in culture - time course

To characterize the process of chondrocyte differentiation and maturation, we used Affymetrix GeneChip analysis to profile the dynamic changes in mRNA expression in high density cultures of primary rib chondrocytes from newborn mice. Temporal expression profiles were obtained from RNA harvested from chondrocytes cultured for 2, 6, 9, 12 and 15 days.
