Osteochondral defects are caused by injury to both the articular cartilage and subchondral
bone within skeletal joints. They can lead to irreversible joint damage and increase the risk …

Osteochondral tissue regeneration is quite difficult to achieve due to the complexity of its
organization. In the design of these complex multilayer structures, a fabrication method, 3D …

One of the key challenges in osteochondral tissue engineering is to define specified zones
with varying material properties, cell types and biochemical factors supporting locally …

Bioprinting is considered a key technology for future space missions and is currently being
established on the International Space Station (ISS). With the aim to perform bioink …

Approaches to the design and construction of biomimetic scaffolds for osteochondral tissue,
show increasing advances. Considering the limitations of this tissue in terms of repair and …

The availability of adapted phantoms mimicking different body parts is fundamental to
