Biomechanical and histological evaluation of hydrogel implants in articular cartilage.
We evaluated the mechanical behavior of the repaired surfaces of defective articular cartilage in the intercondylar region of the rat femur after a hydrogel graft implant. The results were compared to those for the adjacent normal articular cartilage and for control surfaces where the defects remained empty. Hydrogel synthesized by blending poly(2-hydroxyethyl methacrylate) and poly(methyl meth...
متن کاملImaging the Biomechanical Properties of Articular Cartilage
Function: The primary function of articular cartilage is mechanical: under load it must deform to distribute the load over a larger area so as to minimize stress in the underlying bone. In addition, articular cartilage must provide a very low friction surface for gliding when the joint is flexed so that articulating joints move freely. Lastly, it must carry out these two functions for a lifetim...
متن کاملPhysicochemical and Biomechanical Stimuli in Cell-Based Articular Cartilage Repair
Articular cartilage is a unique load-bearing connective tissue with a low intrinsic capacity for repair and regeneration. Its avascularity makes it relatively hypoxic and its unique extracellular matrix is enriched with cations, which increases the interstitial fluid osmolarity. Several physicochemical and biomechanical stimuli are reported to influence chondrocyte metabolism and may be utilize...

Human articular cartilage is highly susceptible to damage and has limited self-repair and regeneration potential. Cell-based strategies to engineer cartilage tissue offer a promising solution to repair articular cartilage. To select the optimal cell source for tissue repair, it is important to develop an appropriate culture platform to systematically examine the biological and biomechanical dif...
