Microparticles loaded gellan gum hydrogel matrices: engineering tissues for nucleus pulposus regeneration

The intervertebral disc central core is made by a gel-like tissue structure composed of more than 80% of water, Nucleus Pulposus (NP). Proteoglycans such as versican and especially aggrecan are the main constituents of the NP matrix as well as collagen type II. The purpose of this work is creating n...
