Abstract

The ability to engineer cells to express a protein of interest in an inducible manner and stably for a long period is a valuable tool in molecular biology and also one that holds promise for regenerative medicine in the future. CCN proteins have been suggested to be involved in tissue regeneration. In this chapter, we describe an in vitro method for stable and inducible expression of CCN protein in a chondroprogenitor cell line and in chondrocytes in primary culture that does not involve the use of any viral vector.
