Matrix Effect on Chondrogenesis: Implication on Cartilage Repair

نویسنده

  • Chih-Hung Chang
چکیده

Several million people suffer from joint cartilage damage with very debilitating conditions. Once damaged, cartilage is a tissue that does not restore itself. Techniques such as micro-fracture, autogenous or allogenous osteochondral transplantation, and autologous chondrocyte implantation may be done to repair cartilage and relieve the patients’ symptoms. The environmental factors’ effect on the chondrogenesis, such as artificial matrix (scaffold) or natural derived matrix, will be discussed in this lecture.

Small Molecule-BIO Accelerates and Enhances Marrow-Derived Mesenchymal Stem Cell in Vitro Chondrogenesis

Background: Hyaline cartilage defects exhibit a major challenge in the field of orthopedic surgery owing to its limited repair capacity. On the other hand, mesenchymal stem cells (MSCs) are regarded as potent cells with a property of cartilage regeneration. We aimed to optimize marrow-derived MSC chondrogenic culture using a small bioactive molecule referred to as BIO. Methods: MSCs from the ma...

Designing of Human Cartilage Tissue, by Differentiation of Adipose-Derived Stem Cells With BMP-6 in Alginate Scaffold

Purpose: In the present study the effect of BMP-6 was investigated on chondrogenesis of adiposederived stem cells. Materials and Methods: Mesenchymal stem cells derived from subcutaneous adipose tissue were cultured on alginate scaffold to induce chondrogenesis in experimental group, with chondrogenic medium having BMP-6 growth factor for 3 weeks. In control group medium without BMP-6 was appli...

Melatonin Enhances Cartilage Matrix Synthesis of Articular Chondrocytes in an in Vitro Serum-containing Pellet Culture System

Introduction Synovial joints are susceptible to cartilage injury and degeneration. Treatment of articular cartilage damage is a challenge because this tissue is unable to regenerate and repair itself. Tissue-engineered cartilage has been successfully implanted to treat osteoarthritic human knees; however, efforts to reduce inflammation and tissue degradation of implanted cartilage are not well ...

Dynamic compressive loading enhances cartilage matrix synthesis and distribution and suppresses hypertrophy in hMSC-laden hyaluronic acid hydrogels.

Mesenchymal stem cells (MSCs) are being recognized as a viable cell source for cartilage repair, and there is growing evidence that mechanical signals play a critical role in the regulation of stem cell chondrogenesis and in cartilage development. In this study we investigated the effect of dynamic compressive loading on chondrogenesis, the production and distribution of cartilage specific matr...
