The combination of microfracture with induction of Wnt / β- Catenin pathway, leads to enhanced cartilage regeneration
Abstract Introduction Microfracture does not lead to complete healing of full-thickness cartilage defects. The aim of this study was to evaluate the effect of modifying Wnt/β-catenin signaling following microfracture, on the restoration of a full-thickness cartilage defect in a rabbit model. The mod...
