1. Production of neocartilage tissues using primary chondrocytes
Sammanfattning : Hyaline cartilage is a highly specialized tissue, which plays an important role in the articulating joints of an individual. It provides the joints with a nearly frictionless, impact resisting surface to protect the ends of the articulating bones. LÄS MER
2. Chondrocytes Differentiation- Biological and Biomaterial Perspectives
Sammanfattning : Articular cartilage is an avascular tissue and once injured it does not heal spontaneously. A successful tissue engineering approach for cartilage reconstruction is autolougus chondrocyte implantation (ACI). LÄS MER
3. Human articular chondrocytes. Plasticity and differentiation potentials
Sammanfattning : Articular cartilage has no or very low ability for self-repair and untreated lesions may lead tothe development of Osteoarthritis (OA). One method, which has been proved to result in longterm repair of isolated lesions, is autologous chondrocyte transplantation (ACT). LÄS MER
4. Studies on various culture systems for chondrocytes and osteoblasts
Sammanfattning : Osteoarthritis and osteochondral defects are ailments that are increasing in frequency as the lifespan of the population increases and sedentary lifestyle becomes more common. Osteoarthritis is an inflammatory disease that causes the progressive degeneration of articular surfaces and the underlying bone. LÄS MER
5. Cartilage Tissue Engineering; the search for chondrogenic progenitor cells and associated signalling pathways
Sammanfattning : The socioeconomic cost of articular cartilage related diseases in the Western world is very high. The suffering of the individual patient is even more problematic. LÄS MER
