Cartilage Tissue Engineering Using Combination of Chitosan Hydrogel and Mesenchymal Stem Cells

A novel chitosan hydrogel with high porosity was fabricated by a crosslinking method. Cartilage tissue engineering formed after mesenchymal stem cells was cultured on this hydrogel scaffold for 12 weeks. The immunohistochemistry tests demonstrated that the obtained cartilage had the specific histolo...
