Abstract
Articular cartilage injury and erosion is a common cause of joint pain often leading to osteoarthritis and permanent morbidity. This research sought to determine if genetically engineered chondrocytes can sustain chondrogenesis in a biodegradable nanofiber scaffold. We hypothesized that chondrocytes would adhere, seed, proliferate, and produce extracellular matrix proteins typical of articular cartilage within a polycaprolactone nanofiber scaffold and this would be accelerated and more robust with hBMP-2 genetically engineered cells.
