Description

Articular cartilage is an avascular, aneural, alymphatic tissue that has a very low capability for intrinsic repair. Injuries to the tissue often lead to progressive degeneration, leading to painful joint disease. The most successful biologically-based treatments for articular cartilage lesions are cell-based therapies that introduce new cells to the lesion with the intention that they produce and replace lost extracellular matrix. Adipose-derived mesenchymal stem cells (ASC) are an attractiv...
