Investigation of cocktails of growth factors for proliferative zonal growth plate using multi-array microfluidic platform

A major problem in the development of engineering an in-vitro growth plate is the premature entrance of the chondrocytes to the hypertrophic stage without the production of Collagen type II (Col2). The study explored the use of a cocktail of growth factors, in particularly, TGF-β3, FGF-2 and insulin...
