| Research Abstract |
The purpose of this study was to immortalize and characterize TMJ disc cell clones, and to determinetheir responses to estrogen, relaxin and progesterone. TMJ disc cells from female mice were isolated,and immortalized by human telomerase reverse transcriptase. Clones demonstrating successfulimmortalization were characterized for fibroblast and chondrocyte markers. Chondrocyte-like andfibroblast-like disc clones show different baseline and hormone-stimulated expression profiles of ESRs,RXFPs and MMP9/13.
