Evaluation of three-dimensional construct engineered from poly(lactic-co-glycolic acid)/fibrin hybrid scaffold seeded with rabbit bone marrow Mesenchymal stem cells for osteochondral defect repair
Damage and degeneration of articular cartilage is a major health predicament. Articular cartilage has poor repair capacity due to its avascular and aneural properties, low metabolic rate and has relatively few cells. Left untreated, it may cause serious disability and loss of function. Therefore, th...

Damage and degeneration of articular cartilage is a major health predicament. Articular cartilage has poor repair capacity due to its avascular and aneural properties, low metabolic rate and has relatively few cells. Left untreated, it may cause serious disability and loss of function. Therefore, the field of cartilage tissue engineering which aims to restore, repair and regenerate injured articular cartilage has evoked numerous interest for improving cartilage functionality. This study investigated the ability of autologous implantation approach using the three dimensional (3D) constructs engineered from bone marrow mesenchymal stem cells (BMSCs) seeded on poly(lactic-co-glycolic acid) (PLGA) with or without fibrin as cells carrier for the repair of osteochondral defect in rabbit model.
