Articular cartilage zones: 1-week old normal proximal tibia
Summary:
Analysis of superficial (SZ), intermediate/deep (IDZ), and resting (RZ) zones microdissected from articular cartilage of the proximal tibiae of 1-week old mice. Results provide insight into the spatial regulation of gene expression in articular cartilage.
