Purpose: Multipotent stromal cells (MSC)-based regenerative strategy is promising for the repair of cartilage, which is an avascular tissue in which cells experience hypoxia. Hypoxia is known to promote the early chondrogenic differentiation of MSC. Therefore, the aim of our study was to determine whether low oxygen tension could be used to enhance the regenerative potential of MSC for cartilage repair.Methods: MSC from rabbits or human adipose tissues (...
