Modulation of Chondrogenic and Osteogenic Differentiation of Mesenchymal Stem Cells through Signals in the Extracellular Microenvironment
Damage to synovial joints results in osteochondral defects that only heal with inferior fibrous repair tissue. Since mesenchymal stem cells (MSCs) play a vital role in the natural development, maintenance, and repair of cartilage and bone, tissue engineering strategies to enhance functional regenera...
