Metabolic reprogramming in chondrocytes to promote mitochondrial respiration reduces downstream features of osteoarthritis

Abstract Metabolic dysfunction in chondrocytes drives the pro-catabolic phenotype associated with osteoarthritic cartilage. In this study, substitution of galactose for glucose in culture media was used to promote a renewed dependence on mitochondrial respiration and oxidative phosphorylation. Galac...
