Enhanced Early Tissue Regeneration after Matrix-Assisted Autologous Mesenchymal Stem Cell Transplantation in Full Thickness Chondral Defects in a Minipig Model

Adult mesenchymal stem cells (MSCs) are an attractive cell source for new treatment strategies in regenerative medicine. This study investigated the potential effect of matrix assisted MSC transplantation for articular cartilage regeneration in a large-animal model 8 weeks postoperatively. MSCs from...
