Abstract:
Cartilage has only a very limited capacity to renew its original structure. Stem cells have been used to repair damaged cartilage, and recent studies have indicated that stem cells from adipose tissue are attractive cell sources that have the capacity of multipotentiality to differentiate into osteogenic, chondrogenic, myogenic, neurogenic and endothelial cells. Adipose-derived stem cells (ASC) have unique characteristics compared with stem cells from BM. At present, ASC have been studied to promote chondrogenesis. This review discusses the application of ASC to cartilage formation.
