Micro-pellet culture reveals that bone marrow mesenchymal stromal cell (BMSC) chondrogenic induction is triggered by a single day of TGF-β1 exposure

K. Futrega, P. G. Robey, T. J. Klein, R. Crawford, M. R. Doran

This paper shows that a single day of TGF-β1 exposure triggers chondrogenic differentiation in BMSCs using micro-pellet cultures, revealing faster kinetics than previously observed with macro-pellets.

Characterisation of ovine bone marrow-derived stromal cells (oBMSC) and evaluation of chondrogenically induced micro-pellets for cartilage tissue repair in vivo

K. Futrega, E. Music, P. G. Robey, S. Gronthos, R. W. Crawford, S. Saifzadeh, T. J. Klein, M. R. Doran

This study characterizes ovine BMSC and evaluates their chondrogenic potential in micro-pellets for cartilage repair, finding that oBMSC micro-pellets failed to repair defects while oACh micro-pellets showed modest repair.
