## Abstract Pluripotent embryonic stem (ES) cells have the capability to differentiate to various cell types and may represent an alternative cell source for the treatment of cartilage defects. Here, we show that differentiation of ES cells toward the chondrogenic lineage can be enhanced by alterin

## Abstract Many cell types and cellular microenvironments have been explored for articular cartilage tissue engineering. We compared the potential of bone marrowβderived mesenchymal stem cells (MSCs) and P19 embryonic carcinoma cells (ECCs), a pluripotent derivative of embryonic stem cells (ESCs),
## Abstract The chondrogenic differentiation of bone marrowβderived human mesenchymal stem cells (MSCs) in a collagen type I hydrogel, which is in clinical use for matrixβbased autologous chondrocyte transplantation (ACT), was investigated. Collagen hydrogels with 2.5 Γ 10^5^ MSCs/mL were fabricate
## Abstract Allogeneic mesenchymal stem cells (MSCs) are regarded as promising seed cells for engineering cartilage. However, few researches have covered the immune properties of seeded MSCs. Collagen has been considered as good scaffold, whether it has inherent chondrogenic inducibility for MSCs i
We investigated the behavior of chondrogenic ATDC5 cells on synthetic polymer gels with various charge densities: negatively charged poly(2-acrylamido-2-methyl-1-propanesulfonic acid) (PAMPS) gel, neutral poly(dimethylacrylamide) (PDMAAm) gel, and copolymer gels of 2-acrylamido-2-methyl-1-propanesul
