Microgel microenvironment primes adipose-derived stem cells towards an NP cells-like phenotype.

Advanced healthcare materials - 1 Dec 2014

Fontana Gianluca, Thomas Dilip, Collin Estelle, Pandit Abhay

Abstract excerpt

Cell therapy of the degenerated intervertebral disc is limited by the lack of appropriate cell sources, thus new strategies for the differentiation of stem cells towards a nucleus pulposus (NP)-like phenotype need investigation. In the current study, it is hypothesized that spherical niche-like structures composed of type II collagen and hyaluronan (HA) mimic the NP microenvironment and promote the...
