Growth and maturation of cartilage of articular joints are dynamic processes mediated by cell fates and extracellular matrix metabolism. These processes are regulated by complex biochemical and ...

Our group has explored the regeneration of soft biological tissues through cell-extracellular matrix interactions, with a focus on collagen-rich environments ... Dissociated and reconstituted ...

We first address the etiopathophysiology of OA and the mechanisms responsible for breakdown of the cartilage extracellular matrix. We then discuss the potential of MSCs for articular cartilage ...
