A mathematical model of cartilage regeneration after chondrocyte and stem cell implantation – I: the effects of growth factors
Autologous chondrocyte implantation is a cell-based therapy for treating chondral defects. The procedure begins by inserting chondrocytes into the defect region. The chondrocytes initiate healing by proliferating and depositing extracellular matrix, which allows them to migrate into the defect until...
