Studies from Germany describe new findings in biomedical engineering research
August 14th, 2006
Investigators in Germany have published new biomedical engineering data. Study 1: Collagen markers have been identified for chondrocyte dedifferentiation into a more fibroblastoid cell type. "Tissue engineering is a promising method for the generation of chondrogenic grafts for reconstructive surgery. In cultured chondrocytes, the dedifferentiation of cells seems unavoidable for multiplication," investigators in Germany report. According to scientists, "In this study, we investigated the expression of distinct markers during the dedifferentiation of human chondrocytes (HC) harvested during septoplasty and human mesenchymal stem...
