Polycaprolactone scaffolds modified with cross-linked hyaluronic acid were prepared in order to establish whether a
more hydrophilic and biomimetic microenvironment benefits the progenitor cells arriving from bone marrow ...
[EN] The aim of this study was to evaluate whether mechanical stimulation helps to modulate the redifferentiation of human chondrocytes on adhesive 3D substrates. In a previous work, it was shown that chondrocytes seeded ...

Scaffolds for cartilage tissue engineering should promote both adequate biomechanical environment and chondrogenic stimulation. Hyaluronic acid (HA) has been used in cartilage engineering for its chondrogenic and ...
Cells behave differently between bidimensional (2D) and tridimensional (3D) environments. While most of the in vitro cultures are 2D, most of the in vivo extracellular matrices are 3D, which encourages the development of ...
While most of the in vivo extracellular matrices are 3D, most of the in vitro cultures are 2D--where only ventral adhesion is permitted--thus modifying cell behavior as a way to self-adaptation to this unnatural environment. ...

Due to the attractive properties of poly(L-lactic acid) (PLLA) and chitosan (CHT) for tissue engineering applications, this study is aimed at analyzing the chondrogenic potential of human bone marrow-derived mesenchymal ...
[EN] Fibronectin (FN) assembles into fibrillar networks by cells through an integrin-dependent mechanism. We have recently shown that simple FN adsorption onto poly(ethyl acrylate) surfaces (PEA), but not control polymer ...

[EN] Chondrogenesis of mesenchymal stem cells (MSCs) is known to be regulated by a number of environmental factors, including local oxygen levels. The hypothesis of this study is that the response of MSCs to hypoxia is ...
Currently, cell culture systems that include nanoscale topography are widely used in order to provide cells additional cues closer to the in vivo environment, seeking to mimic the natural extracellular matrix. Electrospinning ...
