Custom-tailored tissue engineered polycaprolactone scaffolds for total disc replacement

Degeneration of the intervertebral disc (IVD) represents a significant musculoskeletal disease burden. Tissue Engineering has been proposing several strategies comprising the use of biodegradable materials to prepare scaffolds that can present similar mechanical properties to native IVD tissues. How...
