Fig. 3. Northern blot analysis for chondrocyte and adipocyte differentiation markers during cell culture of Runx2/ and wild-type chondrocytes. Expression of chondrocyte and adipocyte differentiation markers in Runx2/ chondrocytes on the indicated days (with day 0 as the day of plating) (A), and in Runx2/ (/) and wild-type (+/+) chondrocytes on day 12 (B). Chondrocytes isolated from the ribs of Runx2/ and wild-type embryos at E18.5 were plated at a density of 1x106/dish in 6 cm dishes and cultured in DMEM/F12 hybrid medium containing 10% FBS. Twenty µg of total RNA were loaded in each lane and hybridized with mouse cDNA of type II collagen, type X collagen, PPAR
, aP2, and Glut4, and rat cDNA of Pref-1. Gels stained with ethidium bromide are shown in the lowest panels as an internal control.
