2003HumanOsteoarthritisIPFP-ASCsIPFP-ASCs were embedded into fibrin glue nodules, for inducing chondrogenic cells, and were placed in osteogenic media containing BMP-2 for inducing osteogenic cells, respectively. And then these cells were transplanted into the hind legs of nude miceCartilage formation induced by fibrin glue nodules, bone formation induced by BMP-2, and bone marrow cavity formation in the hind legs of the osteogenic culture group[1]

IPFP-ASCs: infrapatellar fat pad adipose-derived stem cells; MSCs: mesenchymal stem cells; Ha-MSCs: human amniotic mesenchymal stromal cells; Progenza (PRG): comprises in vitro expanded mesenchymal stem cells derived from human donor adipose tissue combined with cell culture supernatant; TGF-β: transforming growth factor-β; rhBMP-6: recombinant human bone morphogenetic protein-6; BMP-2: bone morphogenetic protein-2.
