The principal function of articular cartilage is to allow motion through the joints and absorb the shocks. How the chondrocytes respond to mechanical stimuli and tigger intracellular signals (mechanostransduction) is still unclear. Ion channels, primary cilium, and integrins have been identified as mechanotransducers in chondrocytes and ou project focuses on the role of \u03b110\u03b21, the most abundant integrin in chondrocytes however its role is not yet understood. Our project explores the involvement of \u03b110\u03b21 in mechanotransduction of chondrocytes.<\/p>\n

We developped a model of murine chondrocytes embbeded in hydrogel (agarose) and subjected to dynamic compression (tribo-bioreactor prototype), and we analyse the reponse of wild type and mutant chondrocytes (\u0394 \u03b110) at the transcriptional and phoshoproteic levels.<\/p>\n
