Human Cartilage Tissue Engineering Using Type I Collagen/Heparan Sulfate Scaffolds
Introduction: Cartilage engineering may provide a promising alternative solution to current methods of cartilage repair. The aim of this study was to evaluate the suitability of type I collagen (Col I) scaffolds with and without heparan sulfate (HS) to support attachment, proliferation and chondrogenic differentiation of human bone marrow mesenchymal stem cells (hBMSCs).
Materials and Methods: hBMSCs were cultured in Col I, Col I+1%HS, Col I+2%HS and Col I+3%HS scaffolds in both chondrogenic and non-differentiation media for 15 ... view moreĀ»
