“…Similarly, with each HA‐deposition step, the outermost layer of the cell is rendered negative. Since proteins behave as dipoles,20 variations in the charge magnitudes could be attributed to various matrix proteins, synthesized by the stem cells and deposited in the pericellular matrix,21 or the proteins from the serum in the culture media. The differences in magnitude for the PLL‐deposition steps when compared to the HA steps are a product of the chemical nature of each polyelectrolyte, and the pH at which the layers are assembled.…”

“…Chondrocytes were isolated from bovine cartilage as previously described 10 , counted and assessed for viability by Trypan blue dye exclusion, and plated in DMEM (Gibco, Grand Island, NY, USA) containing 20% (v/v) heat‐inactivated FCS (Trace Biosciences, Sydney, Australia) and 25 µg/mL of ascorbic acid (Sigma Chemical, St Louis, MO, USA), at high density (∼1−2 × 10 6 cells/cm 2 ) so as to preserve their chondrocytic phenotype. The medium was changed daily and fresh ascorbic acid (25 µg/mL) was added at the time of changes.…”

“…The presences of negative charges have been reported to be advantageous for the adhesion and spreading of MSCs on ECM substratum [145, 146]. Furthermore, there is evidence that variations in the electrostatic charge content of the peri‐cellular matrix synthesized by chondrocytes have a profound influence on the biomechanical properties of cartilaginous tissue [147]. Surface texture/roughness seems to have differential effects on chondrocyte proliferation, differentiation, and matrix production, depending on the maturational state of the chondrocyte itself [148, 149].…”
