Performance of PRP Associated with Porous Chitosan as a Composite Scaffold for Regenerative Medicine
This study aimed to evaluate the in vitro performance of activated platelet-rich plasma associated with porous sponges of chitosan as a composite scaffold for proliferation and osteogenic differentiation of human adipose tissue-derived mesenchymal stem cells. The sponges were prepared by controlled...
