Abstract excerpt
Articular cartilage has limited ability for repair when damaged by trauma or degenerative disease, such as osteoarthritis, which can result in pain and compromised quality of life. Biological surface replacements developed using tissue engineering methods are a promising approach for cartilage repair, which would avoid the need for total joint replacement with the synthetic implants used currently. A basic...
