## Abstract The promising potential of a RAD‐16 self‐assembly‐peptide hydrogel as a scaffold for tissue‐engineered cartilage was investigated. Within 3 weeks of in vitro culture, chondrocytes within the hydrogel produced a high amount of GAG and type‐II collagen, which are the components of cartila
## Abstract The concept of a “biostructural unit” is presented as the combination of biological and structural building blocks to create scaffolds or constructs via a bottom‐up approach. Three types of biostructural units were constructed using the process of fiber formation by interfacial polyelec
