Objective. To determine the major source of eicosanoid release in arthritic joint tissues and to examine the modulation of this release by indomethacin and diclofenac. Methods. Release of prostaglandin E, (PGE,), 6-keto-PGF1,, leukotriene B, (LTB,), and LTC, was measured in supernatants of synovial
## Abstract Cartilage tissue engineering based on cultivation of immature chondrocytes in agarose hydrogel can yield tissue constructs with biomechanical properties comparable to native cartilage. However, agarose is immunogenic and nondegradable, and our capability to modify the structure, composi
