The results confirm dose- and time-dependent cytotoxic effects on human chondrocytes for amide-type local anaesthetics. This study confirms the safety of morphine and M6G in terms of an absence of cytotoxic effects after intra-articular application, making them safe potential alternatives in clinical practice.
scite is a Brooklyn-based organization that helps researchers better discover and understand research articles through Smart Citations–citations that display the context of the citation and describe whether the article provides supporting or contrasting evidence. scite is used by students and researchers from around the world and is funded in part by the National Science Foundation and the National Institute on Drug Abuse of the National Institutes of Health.
