Regeneration of Articular Cartilage in Lizard Knee from Resident Stem/Progenitor Cells

Regeneration of Articular Cartilage in Lizard Knee from Resident Stem/Progenitor Cells

The epiphysis of femur and tibia in the lizard Podarcis muralis can extensively regenerate after injury. The process involves the articular cartilage and metaphyseal (growth) plate after damage. The secondary ossification center present between the articular cartilage and the growth plate is replace...
