Abstract (original English)

Cartilage damage has a certain ability to spontaneously repair, but the repaired tissue often shows the phenomenon of cartilage terminal differentiation, which causes irreversible damage to its structure and function and seriously affects the quality of life and work of patients. It is of great significance to study the problems encountered in the process of cartilage damage repair. This article mainly studied stem cells to promote the regeneration of knee joint degenerative bone articular cartilage. First, the animal articular cartilage defect is modeled, 10 ml of animal venous blood is drawn, 0.5 ml of PRP is collected by centrifugation, mixed with cartilage fragments, and transplanted into the defect area into a gel. In the BMSCs group, 1 ml of BMSCs with a cell concentration of 107 cells/ml was injected intra-articularly. The histological chromosomes were observed after 6 weeks and 12 weeks, and the effect of cartilage tissue repair was analyzed and evaluated, and the related data were statistically analyzed. We evaluated the spontaneous repair ability of partial cartilage damage, full-thickness cartilage damage, and osteochondral damage. Furthermore, for partial cartilage damage repair, by using the cartilage damage in vitro model and biomaterials to simulate the in vivo microenvironment, the adhesion and cell morphology on the surface of partial- and full-thickness cartil
