Dynamic compression of chondrocyte-seeded fibrin gels: effects on matrix accumulation and mechanical stiffness.
Osteoarthritis Cartilage. 2004; (2): 117-30
Various strategies have been tested to direct and control matrix synthesis in tissue engineered cartilage, including mechanical stimulation of the construct both before and after implantation. This study examined the effects of oscillatory compression on chondrocytes in a fibrin-based tissue engineered cartilage.
