Multifaceted signaling regulators of chondrogenesis: Implications in cartilage regeneration and tissue engineering

Abstract excerpt

Defects of articular cartilage present a unique clinical challenge due to its poor self-healing capacity and avascular nature. Current surgical treatment options do not ensure consistent regeneration of hyaline cartilage in favor of fibrous tissue. Here, we review the current understanding of the most important biological regulators of chondrogenesis and their interactions, to provide insight into potential...
