Calcification- and proliferation-inhibitory activities. a PC, PC-E, and EHDP inhibit OA FLSs-mediated calcification. CPM (count per minute) in control, PC-E, PC and EHDP treated cells are 22,784 (±2,156), 6,452 (±1,095), 2,466 (±352), and 5,124 (±1114), respectively, at the concentration of 0.25 mM. b PC and PC-E inhibit OA FLSs proliferation. Cell numbers in control and PC treated wells are 845,236 (±89,521) and 285,706 (±34,132). Cell numbers in control and PC-E treated wells are 924,484 (±98,718) and 331,096 (±48,694). *= p < 0.01, versus control
