Abstract
The tissue formed by the aggregate culture of the expanded ADPC population was less cartilaginous. It is unclear whether this is because there are fewer chondroprogenitor cells or if the monolayer expansion culture favors cells with higher proliferative rates but without differentiation potential. Under the conditions described in this study, BMPCs may represent a better choice for progenitor cell-based strategies for cartilage repair.
