Conzemius %J The Open Tissue Engineering and Regenerative Medicine Journal %D 2008 %I %R 10.2174/1875043500801010008] %X This study investigated the effect of fibroblast growth factor 2 in monolayer followed by transforming growth factor ¦Â1 in 3-dimensional culture on chondrocytic matrix production. Under the culture conditions presented, FGF2 is mitogenic but not chondrogenic. In addition, TGF¦Â1 stimulation produced predominantly type I collagen. %U http://www.benthamscience.com/open/totermj/articles/V001/8TOTERMJ.htm
