Cartilage Tissue Engineering: Investigation of Migration and Differentiation of Human Mesenchymal Stem Cells on Five-Layered Collagenous Electrospun Scaffold Mimicking Native Cartilage Structure (Adv. Healthcare Mater. 17/2016)

On page 2191, the preparation of a multilayered electrospun scaffold that has the potency to induce chondrogenic differentiation of human mesenchymal stem cells in vitro is reported by Jenny W. Reboredo and co-workers. The novel biomaterial consists of collagen type I and II and is designed for the replacement of damaged cartilage that allows repopulation by host cells and synthesis of a new natural matrix.
