The collagen type II alpha 1 chain (<i>Col2a1</i>)<i>,</i> aggrecan (<i>Acan</i>)<i>,</i> and SRY-box 9 (<i>Sox9</i>) mRNA levels were evaluated after BNTA (0.1 μM) treatment compared with glucosamine sulfate (GS, 500 μM) in interleukin 1 beta (IL1β, 10 ng ml^-1)-induced rat osteoarthritis (OA) model at 6 h (n = 5 for each group; <i>Col2a1,</i> <i>Acan,</i> one-way ANOVA; <i>Sox9, </i>nonparametric test). Data are shown as the mean ± standard deviation (s. d.). *<i>P</i> &lt; 0.05, **<i>P</i> &lt; 0.01, ***<i>P</i> &lt; 0.001.
