The incidence of degenerative changes and osteoarthritis is lower in the ankle than in the knee joints. This cannot be explained exclusively with differences in anatomy and biomechanical properties of these two synovial joints. Previous studies have indicated distinct differences in the biochemical composition of the extracellular matrix of articular cartilage from knee and ankle joints. The aim of this study was to identify potential metabolic differences between knee and ankle joint chondrocytes using isolated cells to distinguish the secondary effects of the resident extracellular matrix from the primary matrix-independent effects of cellular differentiation.
