Expression of cartilage markers. BMSC (5-A), NsP (5-B), DPSC (5-C) and AuP (5-D) cells were cultured in apple slices for 14 days in different culture conditions. Relevant genes expression was investigated by real time RT-PCR. ND: normoxia and DMEM (control), NC: normoxia and chondrogenic medium, HD: hypoxia and DMEM (control), HC: hypoxia and chondrogenic medium (n = 3, *p˂0.05, **P˂0.01, ***p˂0.005)
