Study of morphologic response of chondrocytes to uniaxial compression of articular cartilage

Osteoarthritis is synonymous to the functional disorder of articular cartilage. Mechanical tests of articular cartilage offer a way to understand the tissue’s functionality and osteoarthritis. During normal activities, chondrocytes (cells) are indirectly exposed to varied mechanical compressions exe...
