Background:

  • Cartilage damage from disease or trauma is challenging due to its limited regenerative capacity.
  • Effective cartilage regeneration strategies require precise delivery of cells, biomaterials, and signaling factors.
  • Current research focuses on developing clinically translatable methods for cartilage repair.

Purpose of the Study:

  • To review current approaches in cartilage tissue engineering.
  • To discuss various cell sources, including chondrocytes, fibroblasts, and stem cells.
  • To examine the role of biomaterials and signaling factors in cartilage formation.

Main Methods:

  • Review of existing literature on cartilage tissue engineering.
  • Analysis of different cell types used in regenerative strategies.
