Summary Juliane Schneevoigt „Investigation of time- and pressure-dependent expression of different components of the extracellular matrix by chondrocytes in vitro” Institute of Anatomy, Histology and Embryology of the University of Leipzig Submitted in June 2015 98 pages, 34 figures, 41 tables, 153 references keywords: cartilage, chondrocytes, hydrostatic pressure, bioreactor, qPCR Introduction Hyaline cartilage maintains the basic function of transmitting articular pressure load within synovial joints and therefore provides the basis for the movements of an organism. Being a small coverage of the joint surface, it shows a composition designed to match this function specifically. A high amount of proteoglycans and its associated water det...
