A small number of type I collagen–glycosaminoglycan scaffolds (collagen–GAG scaffolds;
CGSs) have unusual biological activity consisting primarily in inducing partial regeneration of …

The biological activity of scaffolds used in tissue engineering applications hypothetically
depends on the density of available ligands, scaffold sites at which specific cell binding occurs. …

The cellular structure of collagen-glycosaminoglycan (CG) scaffolds used in tissue
engineering must be designed to meet a number of constraints with respect to biocompatibility, …

… Lorna Gibson and Brendan Harley are deeply grateful for the support and patience of
their … Harley also wishes to express his gratitude for the joy that his daughter, Joan Clancy-Harley…

Tissue engineering scaffolds are used extensively as three-dimensional analogs of the
extracellular matrix (ECM). However, less attention has been paid to characterizing the scaffold …

The permeability of scaffolds and other three-dimensional constructs used for tissue engineering
applications is important as it controls the diffusion of nutrients in and waste out of the …

Adult mesenchymal stem cells have the proclivity to differentiate along multiple lineages
giving rise to new bone, cartilage, muscle, or fat. Collagen, a normal constituent of bone, …

There is a need to improve current treatments for articular cartilage injuries. This article is the
third in a series describing the design and development of an osteochondral scaffold based …

This paper is the second in a series of papers describing the design and development of an
osteochondral scaffold using collagen–glycosaminoglycan and calcium phosphate …

A novel fabrication process has been developed to produce collagen-based, porous tubular
scaffolds to facilitate the study of myofibroblast migration during peripheral nerve …
