Type II collagen-hyaluronan hydrogel – a step towards a scaffold for intervertebral disc tissue engineering

Intervertebral disc regeneration strategies based on stem cell differentiation in combination with the design of functional scaffolds is an attractive approach towards repairing/regenerating the nucleus pulposus. The specific aim of this study was to optimise a composite hydrogel composed of type II...
