Inducing chondrogenesis in MSC/chondrocyte co-cultures using exogenous TGF-β: a mathematical model
The differentiation of mesenchymal stem cells (MSCs) into chondrocytes (native cartilage cells), or chondrogenesis, is a key step in the tissue engineering of articular cartilage, where the motility and high proliferation rate of MSCs used as seed cells are exploited. Chondrogenesis is regulated by...
