1Department of Orthopaedics, Zhujiang Hospital, Southern Medical University, Guangzhou Guangdong 510282, PR China.
Objective:
To review the latest progress of seeding cells for articular cartilage tissue engineering.
Methods:
The recent original literatures on seeding cells for articular cartilage tissue engineering were extensively reviewed.
Results:
The chondrocytes derived from BMSCs' differentiation would be a main source of seeding cells articular cartilage for tissue engineering. Three-dimensional scaffolds and cultivation surroundings played important roles in the field of articular cartilage tissue engineering.
Conclusion:
The utilization of cytokine and transgenic technology as well as improvements of three-dimensional scaffolds and cultivation surroundings will promote the development of articular cartilage tissue engineering.
