iPSC-Derived Chondroprogenitors as a Promising Cell Source for Cartilage Engineering: A Comparison with MSCs in Unmodified and Peptide-Functionalized Alginate Hydrogels

Articular cartilage degeneration is a hallmark of degenerative joint diseases, yet its limited regenerative capacity poses significant challenges for tissue engineering. While mesenchymal stem cells (MSCs) are the most commonly employed cell type in cartilage tissue engineering, they exhibit donor variability, restrict...
