Abstract
IMPACT STATEMENT: A critical attribute for the long-term success of cartilage defect repair is the strong integration between the repair tissue and the surrounding native tissue. Current approaches utilized by physicians fail to achieve this attribute, leading to eventual relapse of the defect. This article demonstrates the concept of a simple, clinically viable approach for enhancing tissue integration via the combination of a safe, transient enzymatic treatment with a locally delivered, retained growth factor through an in vitro hydrogel/cartilage explant model.Entities:
