Optimizing artificial meniscus by mechanical stimulation of the chondrocyte-laden acellular meniscus using ad hoc bioreactor
Abstract Background Tissue engineering focuses on reconstructing the damaged meniscus by mimicking the native meniscus. The application of mechanical loading on chondrocyte-laden decellularized whole meniscus is providing the natural microenvironment. The goal of this study was to evaluate the effec...
