## Abstract Polycaprolactone/Pluronic F127 porous scaffolds are prepared using a modified melt‐molding particulate‐leaching method. The scaffolds are highly porous (about 90% porosity) and have open‐cellular pore structures. Growth factors (TGF‐__β__~2~, BMP‐7 or dual TGF‐__β__~2~/BMP‐7) can be eas

## Abstract The purpose of this work was to evaluate the __in vivo__ effectiveness of a TGF‐β~2~ and bone morphogenetic protein (BMP)‐7‐immobilized porous polycaprolactone (PCL)/F127 scaffold to enhance the healing of cartilage defect. An osteochondral defect was created on the patellar groove of t
## Abstract Articular cartilage is routinely subjected to mechanical forces and growth factors. Adipose‐derived stem cells (ASCs) are multi‐potent adult stem cells and capable of chondrogenesis. In the present study, we investigated the comparative and interactive effects of dynamic compression and
