Cell model used in this study were primary chondrocytes from OA patients (402OA-05A, Sigma-Aldrich, USA). Chondrocytes were cultivated with Chondrocyte Growth Medium (PromoCell) in a 5% CO2 incubator at 37 °C. Subculture was performed at a ratio of 1:8. Cells used in subsequent experiments were collected at passage 1–2. In cases of osteopontin treatment, osteopontin (Sigma-Aldrich) was used to treat chondrocytes at dosages of 0, 1, 5 and 10 µg/ml for 48 h before use.
Osteopontin
Osteopontin is a glycoprotein found in various tissues, including bone, kidneys, and the immune system. It plays a role in biomineralization and cell signaling processes. Osteopontin can be used as a laboratory reagent for research purposes.

About PubCompare
Our mission is to provide scientists with the largest repository of trustworthy protocols and intelligent analytical tools, thereby offering them extensive information to design robust protocols aimed at minimizing the risk of failures.
We believe that the most crucial aspect is to grant scientists access to a wide range of reliable sources and new useful tools that surpass human capabilities.
However, we trust in allowing scientists to determine how to construct their own protocols based on this information, as they are the experts in their field.
