High Quality of Infant Chondrocytes in Comparison with Adult Chondrocytes for Cartilage Tissue Engineering
BACKGROUND Tissue engineering is used for the treatment of many diseases, and the ideal cell source for cartilage tissue engineering is chondrocytes. The main limitation of chondrocyte is the low number of cells in cartilage tissue engineering. This study investigated a suitable cell source with high proliferation rate to obtain a large number of chondrocytes. METHODS Adult cartilage t...
متن کاملgrowth factor containing hydrogels for tissue engineering applications
regenerative medicine provides substitutes for organ transplantation, which is restricted in applicability due to immune responses against allograft and the large discrepancy between the need for organs and the number of available transplantation. an artificial environment is allowing cells to induce tissue regeneration. growth factors (gfs) play a significant role in the cell fates in their mi...

متن کاملLysophosphatidic Acid: A Novel Biochemical Agent for Tissue Engineering Fibrocartilage
The knee meniscus is a fibrocartilaginous tissue vital to orthopedic health but critically lacking in regenerative capacity. Over 450,000 meniscectomies are performed annually in the US, and such defects are left empty due to the lack of a suitable meniscus replacement. Meniscectomies, however, have been shown to lead to osteoarthritis. Meniscus tissue generated in vitro may greatly improve cur...
