## Abstract Mesenchymal stem cells (MSCs) are potentially useful cells for musculoskeletal tissue engineering. However, controlling MSC differentiation and tissue formation in vivo remains a challenge. There is a significant need for well‐defined and efficient protocols for directing MSC behaviors

## Abstract The chondrogenic differentiation of bone marrow‐derived human mesenchymal stem cells (MSCs) in a collagen type I hydrogel, which is in clinical use for matrix‐based autologous chondrocyte transplantation (ACT), was investigated. Collagen hydrogels with 2.5 × 10^5^ MSCs/mL were fabricate
## Abstract Availability of human chondrocytes is a major limiting factor regarding drug discovery projects and tissue replacement therapies. As an alternative human mesenchymal stem cells (hMSCs) from bone marrow are taken into consideration as they can differentiate along the chondrogenic lineage
Electromagnetic fields (EMF) have been shown to exert beneficial effects on cartilage tissue. Nowadays, differentiated human mesenchymal stem cells (hMSCs) are discussed as an alternative approach for cartilage repair. Therefore, the aim of this study was to examine the impact of EMF on hMSCs during
## Abstract Aggregate culture is a useful method for inducing chondrogenic differentiation of human mesenchymal stem cells (hMSC) in a three‐dimensional __in vitro__ culture environment. Conventional aggregate culture, however, typically requires repeated growth factor supplementation during media
