Beneficial Effects of Coculturing Synovial Derived Mesenchymal Stem Cells with Meniscus Fibrochondrocytes Are Mediated by Fibroblast Growth Factor 1: Increased Proliferation and Collagen Synthesis

Meniscus reconstruction is in great need for orthopedic surgeons. Meniscal fibrochondrocytes transplantation was proposed to regenerate functional meniscus, with limited donor supply. We hypothesized that coculture of synovial mesenchymal stem cells (SSC) with meniscal fibrochondrocytes (me-CH) can...
