“…"Chondrogenic clone" was as described in Chacko et al (15). Cells in the ultimate compartment of the fibrogenic lineage were mononucleated and synthesized (al),a2 collagen subunits (16)(17)(18), hyaluronic acid, and various amounts of chondroitin sulftate (19,20 (21,22). Occasionally, clones with myotubes during the second week were lacking in myotubes during the third week; either the myotubes degenerated or they were obscured by overgrowth of replicating mononucleated cells.…”
