Mechanical injury to murine femoral head epiphyseal or hip cartilage significantly modulates the transcriptome of articular chondrocytes in wildtype and MAPK9 knockout mice

To identify the gene expression profile of hip cartilage post injury in wild type C57BL6 and MAPK9 knockout mice. Total RNA obtained from femoral head epiphyseal cartilage of murine hips before and after 4 hours post injury induction
