The aim of this study was to explore the ability for chondrogenic differentiation of bone marrow mesenchymal stems cells (BMSCs) induced by either cartilage-derived morphogenetic protein 1 (CDMP-1) alone or in the presence of transforming growth factor-β1 (TGF-β1) in vivo and in vitro. BMSCs and poly-lactic acid/glycolic acid copolymer (PLGA) scaffold were analyzed for chondrogenic capacity induced by CDMP-1 and TGF-β1 in vivo and in vitro. Chondrogenic differentiation of BMSCs into chondrocytes using a high density pellet culture system was tested, whether they could be maintained in 3-D PLGA scaffold instead of pellet culture remains to be explored. Under the culture of high-density cell suspension and PLGA frame, BMSCs were observed the ability to repair cartilage defects by either CDMP-1 alone or in the presence of TGF-β1 in vitro. Then the cell-scaffold complex was implanted into animals for 4 and 8 weeks for in vivo test. The content of collagen type II and proteoglycan appeared to increase over time in the constructs of the induced groups (CDMP in the presence of TGF-β1), CDMP group and TGF group. However, the construct of the control group did not express them during the whole culture time. At 4 and 8 weeks, the collagen type II expression of the induced group was higher than the sum of TGF group and CDMP group by SSPS17.0 analysis. BMSCs and PLGA complex induced by CDMP-1 and TGF- β1 can repair cartilage defects more effectively than that induced by CDMP-1 or TGF-β1 only.

Background: Microfracture drilling is a surgical technique that involves creating multiple perforations in areas of cartilage defects to recruit stem cells from the bone marrow, thereby promoting cartilage regeneration in the knee joint. Increasing the exposed bone marrow surface area (more holes in the same area) can enhance stem cell outflow. However, when the exposed area is large, it may affect the mechanical strength of the bone at the site of the cartilage defect.

Articular cartilage has a limited self-healing capacity, leading to joint degeneration and osteoarthritis over time. Therefore, bioactive scaffolds are gaining attention as a promising approach to regenerating and repairing damaged articular cartilage through tissue engineering. In this study, we reported on a novel 3D bio-printed proteinaceous bioactive scaffolds combined with natural porcine cancellous bone dECM, tempo-oxidized cellulose nanofiber (TOCN), and alginate carriers for TGF-β1, FGF-18, and ADSCs to repair cartilage defects.

Bone regeneration is limited and generally requires external intervention to promote effective repair. Autografts, allografts, and xenografts as traditional methods for addressing bone defects have been widely utilized, their clinical applicability is limited due to their respective disadvantages. Fortunately, functional polysaccharide hydrogels have gained significant attention in bone regeneration due to their exceptional drug-loading capacity, biocompatibility, and ease of chemical modification.

Femoroacetabular impingement syndrome (FAIS) is a common condition of the hip that can cause significant damage to the joint, leading to degeneration and osteoarthritis. FAIS constitutes an abnormal and dynamic contact between the femoral head-neck junction and the acetabular rim, resulting from altered bone morphology at one or both sites. Repetitive trauma at the site of impingement generates progressive damage to the acetabular labrum, chondrolabral junction, and articular cartilage.
