Mesenchymal stem/stromal cells (MSCs) comprise a heterogeneous population of cells with
multilineage differentiation potential, the ability to modulate oxidative stress, and secrete …

Osteoarthritis (OA) is a common cause of chronic pain and disability. Regenerative therapies
using mesenchymal stem cells (MSCs) provide an option for OA treatment as it could …

The main purpose of the article is to review recent knowledge about growth factors and their
effect on the chondrogenic differentiation of mesenchymal stem cells under in vitro …

Mesenchymal stem cells (MSCs) represent a class of multipotent progenitor cells that have
been isolated from multiple tissue sites. Of these, adipose tissue and bone marrow offer …

Adipose tissue is an abundant, easily accessible, and reproducible cell source for musculo-
skeletal regenerative medicine applications. Initial derivation steps yield a heterogeneous …

Aim To compare the incorporation, growth, and chondrogenic potential of bone marrow (BM)
and adipose tissue (AT) mesenchymal stem cells (MSCs) in scaffolds used for cartilage …

Diseases associated with articular cartilage disintegration or loss are still therapeutically
challenging. The traditional treatment approaches only alleviate the symptoms while …

Introduction: A stem cell (SC) niche is defined as the microenvironment in which the adult
SC resides and includes surrounding cells, low oxygen content and growth factor gradients …

Osteochondral tissue repair requires formation of vascularized bone and avascular
cartilage. Mesenchymal stem cells stimulate angiogenesis both in vitro and in vivo but it is …

Decellularized extracellular matrix (ECM) has recently gained a lot of interest as an
instructive biomaterial for regenerative medicine applications. In this study, the ability of …
