Novel genipin cross-linked chitosan-silk based sponges for the regeneration and repair of cartilage using a tissue engineering approach

Development of materials that can interactpositively with tissues is important to regenerative medicine strategies success. Cartilage tissue engineering (TE) scaffolding is a field of continuous evolution, and sponges derived from the combination of polysaccharides and proteins are expected to mimic...
