Development and Validation of Large-Sized Engineered Cartilage Constructs in Full –Thickness Chondral Defects in a Rabbit Model
… enabling long-lasting repair of cartilage defects. Current techniques, however, rely on the need for a large number of cells, requiring substantial harvesting of donor tissue or a separate cell expansion phase. As routine cell expansion methods tend to elicit negative effects on cell …

Application of endostatin using nonviral gene delivery toward the regeneration of articular cartilage
Articular cartilage is avascular, and defects have limited capacity for spontaneous healing. Angiogenesis may interfere with maturation of naturally avascular tissues. Our rationale is that the use of endostatin, a potent angiogenesis inhibitor, will facilitate the formation of hyaline cartilage …

SPECTROSCOPIC ASSESSMENT OF TISSUE ENGINEERED CARTILAGE: A PATHWAY FOR BENCH TO BEDSIDE EVALUATION OF CARTILAGE DEVELOPMENT AND REPAIR
… is a promising approach for the repair of chondral defects. Engineering of cartilage combines a three-dimensional scaffold with chondrogenic cells and appropriate external stimuli, and ideally results in constructs with properties that resemble, as closely as possible, native cartilage. …
