A photo-crosslinked proteinogenic hydrogel enabling self-recruitment of endogenous TGF-β1 for cartilage regeneration

Cartilage regeneration is crucial to the functional reconstruction of damaged or degenerated joints, involving a variety of biological factors. Transforming growth factor-beta 1 (TGF-β1) play an important role in chondrogenesis and cartilage regeneration. In this study, we developed a novel photo-cr...
