Use of mesenchymal stem cells seeded on the scaffold in articular cartilage repair
Articular cartilage has poor capacity for repair. Once damaged, they degenerate, causing functional impairment of joints. Allogeneic cartilage transplantation has been performed for functional recovery of articular cartilage.

Electrically Conductive Hydrogels for Articular Cartilage Tissue Engineering
Articular cartilage is a highly specialized tissue found in diarthrodial joints, which is crucial for healthy articular motion. Despite its importance, articular cartilage has limited regenerative capacities, and the degeneration of this tissue is a ...

Human stem cells and articular cartilage regeneration. [PDF]
The regeneration of articular cartilage damaged due to trauma and posttraumatic osteoarthritis is an unmet medical need. Current approaches to regeneration and tissue engineering of articular cartilage include the use of chondrocytes, stem cells ...

Imaging of articular cartilage
We tried to review the role of magnetic resonance imaging (MRI) in understanding microscopic and morphologic structure of the articular cartilage. The optimal protocols and available spin-echo sequences in present day practice are reviewed in context of ...

Restoration of the extracellular matrix in human osteoarthritic articular cartilage by overexpression of the transcription factor SOX9 [PDF]
Objective. Human osteoarthritis (OA) is characterized by a pathologic shift in articular cartilage homeostasis toward the progressive loss of extracellular matrix (ECM).
