Abstract:
Articular cartilage injuries are always difficult to repair, but g ene-enhanced cartilage tissue-engineering has proved to be a better alternativ e treatment. Tissue engineering consists of 3 elements; germ cells, signal facto rs (cytokine or growth factor) and biological materials (scaffolds). This paper highlights research on the gene transduction with signal factors into germ cells .
