Engineered Mesenchymal Stem Cells for Cartilage Repair
1 Jul 2006
Abstract excerpt
Healthy cartilage is a highly robust tissue, and is resilient against the stringent mechanical and biological constraints imposed upon it. Cartilage defects are common features of joint diseases, but current treatments can rarely restore the full function of native cartilage. Recent studies have provided new perspectives for cartilage engineering using mesenchymal stem cells (MSCs). However, the sequential events...
