SIMULATED JOINT LOADING ENHANCES THE EXPRESSION OF SUPERFICIAL ZONE MARKERS IN TISSUE ENGINEERED CARTILAGE CONSTRUCTS
Tissue engineering is a promising approach for repairing focal defects in articular cartilage. However, using current technologies tissue engineered cartilage displays insufficient biochemical, mechanical and structural properties which compromise the efficacy of implantable material. Researchers h...
