Primary Human Chondrocytes (HCH) are isolated from normal human articular cartilage from the knee and hip joints (lot specific source information is available on request).


  • Available from hip and knee joints
  • Differentiation tested by Alcian Blue staining of HCH spheroids
  • Cryopreserved at second passage


PromoCell HCH are routinely tested for their capacity to differentiate in 3D spheroids


This product can be used in the following applications. Osteoarthritis research, Joint research, Physiology studies, Chondrocyte differentiation experiments, Hyaline cartilage investigations.


The articular cartilage covers the joints between bones and contains no blood vessels, lymphatic vessels, or nerve fibers. It is composed of only one specialized cell type, the chondrocytes, which produce and maintain the extracellular matrix of cartilage, i.e. collagen (mostly type II) and proteoglycans (primarily aggrecan).


Ordering information: Human Chondrocytes can be ordered as cryopreserved or proliferating cells. Additional cell pellets stored in RNAlater® are available.
