| Abstract | The objective of the study was to evaluate the growth-promoting activity of human platelet supernanant on primary chondrocytes in comparison with fetal calf serum (FCS) supplemented cell culture medium. Furthermore, the differentiation potential of platelet supernatant was determined in three-dimensional artificial cartilage tissues of bovine articular chondrocytes. Proliferation of articular and nasal septal chondrocytes was assayed by incorporation of BrdU upon stimulation with ten different batches of human platelet supernatant. On bovine articular chondrocytes, all these batches were at least as growth-promoting as FCS. On nasal septal chondrocytes, nine out of ten batches revealed increased or equivalent mitogenic stimulation compared with medium supplemented with FCS. Three-dimensional culture and subsequent histological analysis of matrix formation were used to determine the differentiation properties of platelet supernatant on articular chondrocytes. Human platelet supernatant failed to induce the deposition of typical cartilage matrix components, whereas differentiation and matrix formation were apparent upon cultivation of articular chondrocytes with FCS. Proliferation assays demonstrated that human platelet supernatant stimulates growth of articular and nasal septal chondrocytes; however, platelet supernatant failed to stimulate articular chondrocytes to redifferentiate in three-dimensional chondrocyte cultures. Therefore platelet lysate may be suitable for chondrocyte expansion, but not for maturation of tissue-engineered cartilage. |

National Digital Library of India (NDLI) is a virtual repository of learning resources which is not just a repository with search/browse facilities but provides a host of services for the learner community. It is sponsored and mentored by Ministry of Education, Government of India, through its National Mission on Education through Information and Communication Technology (NMEICT). Filtered and federated searching is employed to facilitate focused searching so that learners can find the right resource with least effort and in minimum time. NDLI provides user group-specific services such as Examination Preparatory for School and College students and job aspirants. Services for Researchers and general learners are also provided. NDLI is designed to hold content of any language and provides interface support for 10 most widely used Indian languages. It is built to provide support for all academic levels including researchers and life-long learners, all disciplines, all popular forms of access devices and differently-abled learners. It is designed to enable people to learn and prepare from best practices from all over the world and to facilitate researchers to perform inter-linked exploration from multiple sources. It is developed, operated and maintained from Indian Institute of Technology Kharagpur.

NDLI is a conglomeration of freely available or institutionally contributed or donated or publisher managed contents. Almost all these contents are hosted and accessed from respective sources. The responsibility for authenticity, relevance, completeness, accuracy, reliability and suitability of these contents rests with the respective organization and NDLI has no responsibility or liability for these. Every effort is made to keep the NDLI portal up and running smoothly unless there are some unavoidable technical issues.
