EFFECTS OF INTERMITTENT STATIC AND DYNAMIC TENSION ON ARTICULAR CHONDROCYTES IN HIGH DENSITY CULTURE
Tissue engineering has the potential of becoming an effective approach for the replacement of articular cartilage. However, the problems of small tissue size and inadequate mechanical properties of the tissue have yet to be overcome. Mechanical stimulation of cartilaginous tissues is one method of...
