Hydrogel-Based 3D Bioprinting Technology for Articular Cartilage Regenerative Engineering
GelsArticular cartilage is an avascular tissue with very limited capacity of self-regeneration. Trauma or injury-related defects, inflammation, or aging in articular cartilage can induce progressive degenerative joint diseases such as osteoarthritis.

Tissue Engineering: An Alternative to Repair Cartilage
Tissue Engineering Part B: Reviews, 2019 Herein we review the state-of-the-art in tissue engineering for repair of articular cartilage. First, we describe the molecular, cellular, and histologic structure and function of endogenous cartilage, focusing on chondrocytes, collagens, extracellular matrix, and proteoglycans.

Mechanically adjustable and degradable scaffolds for the treatment of articular cartilage defects
, 2014 Articular cartilage (AC) has long been known as the tissue that “once destroyed, is not repaired”. Damage to the AC may impair joint function, leading to osteoarthritis, joint destruction, and ultimately, joint replacement.
