Abstract

Clones of embryonic chick chondrocytes have been isolated and collagen biosynthesis has been followed as the clones grow and eventually lose division capacity. Analysis of collagen type at each successive subculture until the time of cellular senescence has shown that a change in synthesis occurs from the cartilage-specific Type II collagen (chain composition [alpha1(II)]3) to a mixture of Type I collagen (chain composition [alpha1(I)2alpha2) and the Type I trimer (chain composition[alpha1(I)]3). The results demonstrate unequivocally that the expression of the chick chondrocyte phenotype is unstable in vitro, and that previous experiments with mass cultures of chondrocytes cannot be accounted for by overgrowth of fibroblasts. Since similar morphological changes and a similar "switching" in collagen biosynthesis have been observed after growth of chondrocytes for a few days in 5-bromo-2'-deoxyuridine, it is proposed that growth in this analog accelerates those changes that eventually lead to cellular senescence.

About these checks

Registry, retraction, Cites and statistics results are computed, not judged, with one exception: a printed reference that no index lists is read once by a model before it counts as a citation error. Claims are extracted by a model and kept only when their quote appears verbatim in the text; each cited source is then checked, with a model’s help, for whether it says what the claim relies on. Those verdicts can be wrong — read the claim’s quote and the cited source before relying on one.

Statistics and arithmetic are recomputed, not judged.

Confidence bands are shown only for fields calibrated on our annotated test set. None is calibrated yet, so no band is shown.
