PRP and BMAC for Musculoskeletal Conditions via Biomaterial Carriers. [PDF]

open access: yes, 2019
Platelet-rich plasma (PRP) and bone marrow aspirate concentrate (BMAC) are orthobiologic therapies considered as an alternative to the current therapies for muscle, bone and cartilage. Different formulations of biomaterials have been used as carriers for

Magnetically Controlled 3D Cartilage Regeneration

open access: yesCARTILAGE, 2023
Objective The cartilage regeneration field has not yet overcome the issue of effective “shaping”: growing regenerated cartilage in the desired shape, and maintaining that shape, is problematic. This study reports on a new method of cartilage regeneration in which the cartilage is shaped in three dimensions. Since cartilage is composed only of cartilage

The role of the immune microenvironment in bone, cartilage, and soft tissue regeneration: from mechanism to therapeutic opportunity

open access: yesMilitary Medical Research, 2022
Bone, cartilage, and soft tissue regeneration is a complex spatiotemporal process recruiting a variety of cell types, whose activity and interplay must be precisely mediated for effective healing post-injury.

Hypoxia regulates RhoA and Wnt/β-catenin signaling in a context-dependent way to control re-differentiation of chondrocytes

open access: yesScientific Reports, 2017
Cartilage tissue is avascular and hypoxic which regulates chondrocyte phenotype via stabilization of HIFs. Here, we investigated the role of hypoxia and HIFs in regulation of Rho and canonical Wnt signaling in chondrocytes.

Regeneration of Subcutaneous Cartilage in a Swine Model Using Autologous Auricular Chondrocytes and Electrospun Nanofiber Membranes Under Conditions of Varying Gelatin/PCL Ratios

open access: yesFrontiers in Bioengineering and Biotechnology, 2021
The scarcity of ideal biocompatible scaffolds makes the regeneration of cartilage in the subcutaneous environment of large animals difficult. We have previously reported the successful regeneration of good-quality cartilage in a nude mouse model using ...

Articular Cartilage Regeneration in Osteoarthritis [PDF]

open access: yesCells, 2019
There has been considerable advancement over the last few years in the treatment of osteoarthritis, common chronic disease and a major cause of disability in older adults. In this pathology, the entire joint is involved and the regeneration of articular cartilage still remains one of the main challenges, particularly in an actively inflammatory ...

Early Stage Foreign Body Reaction against Biodegradable Polymer Scaffolds Affects Tissue Regeneration during the Autologous Transplantation of Tissue-Engineered Cartilage in the Canine Model

open access: yesCell Transplantation, 2012
To overcome the weak points of the present cartilage regenerative medicine, we applied a porous scaffold for the production of tissue-engineered cartilage with a greater firmness and a 3D structure.
