The effect of salts on the expression of anabolic and catabolic factors in chondrocytes. Chondrocytes were treated with 0.1, 0.2, and 0.5% of Jeju lava seawater (JLS) salt , Korean sea salt (KS), and deep ocean seawater salt (DS) for 24 h. Conventional RT-PCR and qRT-PCR were used to analyze the mRNA expression of Sox9, Col2a1, Aggrecan, Mmp3, Mmp13, Adamts4, and Adamts5. Gapdh was utilized as an internal control
