There are increasing reports that mesenchymal stem cells (MSCs) are present in various tissues other than bone marrow, including synovium. Here we investigated the optimal conditions for in vitro chondrogenesis of human synovium-derived MSCs and compared these cells with bone marrow-derived MSCs, es
## Abstract In this study, an injectable and biodegradable poly(ethylene glycol) (PEG)/arginineβglycineβaspartic (RGD) peptide hybrid hydrogel has been synthesized and used as a biomimetic scaffold for encapsulation of human mesenchymal stem cells (hMSCs). Tetrahydroxyl PEG was functionalized with
