Description

Kartogenin stimulates chondrogenic differentiation of bone-derived mesenchymal stem cells (BMSCs) to improve repair of full-thickness cartilage defects in microfracture models. Kartogenin also induces formation of cartilage-like tissue and enhances wound healing in animal models. This compound may display pro-fibrotic activity. Kartogenin increases cartilage nodule formation, digit cartilaginous anlage elongation, synovial joint formation, and tendon maturation.
