Facchini A, Stanic I, Cetrullo S, Borzì RM, Filardo G, Flamigni F · Journal of Cellular Physiology

Independent replication of chondrocyte protection from a group unconnected to the Norwich programme, across several different insults rather than a single cytokine.

Population

Human articular chondrocytes

Intervention

Sulforaphane before a range of death stimuli

Comparator

Stimulus alone

Limitations

Cell culture; protective concentrations are set by the experimenter.
