Objectives
Previous reports have proposed the importance of signalling and material exchange between cartilage and subchondral bone. However, the specific experimental evidence is still insufficient to support the effect of this interdependent relationship on mutual cell behaviours. In this study, we aimed to investigate cellular lipid metabolism in chondrocytes induced by osteoblasts.

Purposes
Gap junction intercellular communication (GJIC) is essential for articular cartilage to respond appropriately to physical or biological stimuli and maintain homeostasis. Connective tissue growth factor (CTGF), identified as an endochondral ossification genetic factor, plays a vital role in cell proliferation, migration and adhesion. However, how CTGF regulates GJIC in chondrocytes is still...
