Cartilage Organoids from Articular Chondroprogenitor Cells and Their Potential to Produce Neo-Hyaline Cartilage
Menssen D, Feenstra J, Janssen R, Abinzano F, Ito K
Cartilage . 2025 Feb; :19476035241313179. PMID: 39925233
Introduction: The use of autologous human primary articular chondrocytes (hPACs) for repairing damaged cartilage is the golden standard; however, their 2-dimensional (2D) expansion induces dedifferentiation, making it challenging to create...

Evaluation of the Femoral Condyle Radius of Curvature at the Chondral Surface Shows Significant Correlation With the Anterior-Posterior Length
Jerban S, Tabbaa S, Caldwell 3rd P, Jones K, Bugbee W, Crawford D, et al.
Cartilage . 2025 Jan; :19476035251314109. PMID: 39881445
Background: Accurate donor-recipient matching of the femoral condyle radius of curvature (ROC) in osteochondral allograft (OCA) transplantation may aid in minimizing articular surface incongruities. Matching linear femorotibial dimensions, such as...
