Tissue engineering with mesenchymal stem cells and a hyaluronan collagen based scaffold is a promising approach to repair meniscal tears in the avascular zone. 4 mm longitudinal meniscal tears in the avascular zone of lateral menisci of New Zealand White Rabbits were performed. The defect was left empty, sutured with a 5-0 suture or filled with a hyaluronan/collagen composite matrix without cells, with platelet rich plasma or with autologous mesenchymal stem cells. Matrices with stem cells were in part precultured in chondrogenic medium for 14 days prior to the implantation. Menisci were harvested at 6 and 12 weeks. The developed repair tissue was analyzed macroscopically, histologically and biomechanically. Untreated defects, defects treated with suture alone, with cell-free or with platelet rich plasma seeded implants showed a muted fibrous healing response. The implantation of stem cell-matrix constructs initiated fibrocartilage-like repair tissue, with better integration and biomechanical properties in the precultured stem cell-matrix group. A hyaluronan-collagen based composite scaffold seeded with mesenchymal stem cells is more effective in the repair avascular meniscal tear with stable meniscus-like tissue and to restore the native meniscus.}, subject = {Meniskusschaden}, language = {en} } @misc{MauererRexhepajMonkmanetal., author = {Mauerer, Wolfgang and Rexhepaj, Tanja and Monkman, Gareth J. and Sindersberger, Dirk and Diermeier, Andreas and Neidhart, Thomas and Wolfrum, Dominik and Sterner, Michael and Heberl, Michael and Nusko, Robert and Maier, Georg and Nagl, Klaus and Reuter, Monika and Hofrichter, Andreas and Lex, Thomas and Lesch, Florian and Kieninger, B{\"a}rbel and Szalo, Alexander Eduard and Zehner, Alexander and Palm, Christoph and Joblin, Mitchell and Apel, Sven and Ramsauer, Ralf and Lohmann, Daniel and Westner, Markus and Strasser, Artur and Munndi, Maximilian and Ebner, Lena and Elsner, Michael and Weiß, Nils and Segerer, Matthias and Hackenberg, Rudolf and Steger, Sebastian and Schmailzl, Anton and Dostalek, Michael and Armbruster, Dominik and Koch, Fabian and Hierl, Stefan and Thumann, Philipp and Swidergal, Krzysztof and Wagner, Marcus and Briem, Ulrich and Diermeier, Andreas and Spreitzer, Stefan and Beiderbeck, Sabrina and Hook, Christian and Zobel, Martin and Weber, Tim and Groß, Simon and Penzkofer, Rainer and Dendorfer, Sebastian and Schillitz, Ingo and Bauer, Thomas and Rudolph, Clarissa and Schmidt, Katja and Liebetruth, Thomas and Hamer, Markus and Haug, Sonja and Vernim, Matthias and Weber, Karsten and Saßmannshausen, Sean Patrick and Books, Sebastian and Neuleitner, Nikolaus and Rechenauer, Christian and Steffens, Oliver and Kusterle, Wolfgang and G{\"o}mmel, Roland and Wellnitz, Felix and Stierstorfer, Johannes and Stadler, Dominik and Hofmann, Matthias J. and Motschmann, Hubert and Shamonin (Chamonine), Mikhail and Bleicher, Veronika and Fischer, Sebastian and Hackenberg, Rudolf and Horn, Anton and Kawasch, Raphael and Petzenhauser, Michael and Probst, Tobias and Udalzow, Anton and Dams, Florian and Schreiner, Rupert and Langer, Christoph and Prommesberger, Christian and Ławrowski, Robert Damian}, title = {Forschungsbericht 2016}, editor = {Baier, Wolfgang}, address = {Regensburg}, organization = {Ostbayerische Technische Hochschule Regensburg}, doi = {10.35096/othr/pub-1384}, url = {http://nbn-resolving.de/urn:nbn:de:bvb:898-opus4-13840}, language = {de} }
