Osteoarthritis (OA) is characterized by pain and declining gait function associated with degeneration of cartilage. A severe hypoxic environment occurs due to tissue injury in the joint cavity and may aggravate the development of OA. In this study, the effects of severe hypoxia and treatment with mechano growth factor (MGF) E peptide on metabolism of the extracellular matrix (ECM) during the progression of OA were determined. The results showed that cell viability, cell proliferation, and type II collagen expression in chondrocytes were
