Abstract:Rotator cuff injury has always been a clinical challenge. Repairing rotator cuff injury with tissue engineering technique has become a commonly used research strategy. The purpose of this study is to construct a dynamic chondroitin sulfate and chitosan hydrogel scaffold (CHS) with bone morphogenetic protein 2 (BMP2), then seed tendon stem cells (TSCs) on BMP2-CHS for the rotator cuff reconstruction of tendon-to-bone interface. In this dynamic hydrogel system, the scaffold could not only have good biocompatibil… Show more
