Chitosan supports the expression of extracellular matrix proteins in human osteoblasts and chondrocytes.

Journal of biomedical materials research - 15 Sept 2000

Lahiji A, Sohrabi A, Hungerford D S, Frondoza C G

Abstract excerpt

The search for biocompatible materials that can support the growth and phenotypic expression of osteoblasts and chondrocytes is a major challenge in the application of tissue engineering techniques for the repair of bone and cartilage defects. Chitosan, a copolymer of glucosamine and N-acetylglucosamine, may provide an answer to this search. Chitosan is the deacetylated product of chitin, a ubiquitous biopolymer...
