Cartilage matrix production by healthy, cartilage defect and osteoarthritis chondrocytes. Cartilage regeneration cultures of three healthy (H), three cartilage defect (CD) and three osteoarthritic (OA) donors, with either nonexpanded or expanded chondrocytes. (A) Glycosaminoglycan (GAG) content per DNA, (B) cumulative GAG release per DNA, and (C) total GAG production (GAG content + cumulative GAG release) per DNA after 28 days of culture. *P <0.05, †P <0.05 compared with CD and OA; ‡P <0.05 compared with H and OA.
