## Abstract Mesenchymal stem cells (MSCs) have the capacity for selfโrenewal and can form bone, fat, and cartilage. Alginate forms a viscous solution when dissolved in 0.9% saline and gels on contact with divalent cations. The viability and phenotype maintenance of chondrocytes in alginate beads ha

## Abstract Noggin is a secreted protein that inhibits the binding of bone morphogenetic proteins (BMPs) to their cognate receptor. Its role in human mesenchymal stem cell differentiation has not been well studied. Here, we studied the effect of noggin on human mesenchymal stem cell differentiation
## Abstract Human mesenchymal stem cells (MSCs) reside under hypoxic conditions in vivo, between 4% and 7% oxygen. Differentiation of MSCs under hypoxic conditions results in inhibited osteogenesis, while chondrogenesis is unaffected. The reasons for these results may be associated with the inheren
## Abstract The aim of this study was to evaluate the behaviors of mesenchymal stem cells (MSCs) on Poly(LโLactic acid) (PLLA) membranes with different surface topographies. The doubleโsided micropatterns, islandโpatterned, and sunkenโpatterned PLLA membranes with diameters of 60 and 100 ฮผm, were f
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 In this study, an injectable and biodegradable poly(ethylene glycol) (PEG)/arginineโglycineโaspartic (RGD) peptide hybrid hydrogel has been synthesized and used as a biomimetic scaffold for encapsulation of human mesenchymal stem cells (hMSCs). Tetrahydroxyl PEG was functionalized with
