## Abstract Two chondrogenic factors, Dex and TGFβ__Ξ²__1, were incorporated into PLGA scaffolds and their chondrogenic potential was evaluated. The Dexβloaded PLGA scaffold was grafted with AA and heparin, the heparinβimmobilized one was then reacted with TGFβ__Ξ²__1, yielding a PLGA/DexβTGF (PLGA/D
## Abstract Mesenchymal stem cells derived from human bone marrow (hBMβMSCs) can differentiate into chondrogenic cells for the potential treatment of injured articular cartilage. To evaluate agarose gels as a supportive material for chondrogenesis of hBMβMSCs, this study examined chondrogenesis of
There are increasing reports that mesenchymal stem cells (MSCs) are present in various tissues other than bone marrow, including synovium. Here we investigated the optimal conditions for in vitro chondrogenesis of human synovium-derived MSCs and compared these cells with bone marrow-derived MSCs, es
