| Research Abstract |
It is assumed that the functions of the surrounding perichondrium-like tissues are important for cartilage regeneration. The purpose of this study was to explicate the effects of the blood circulation in the perichondrium-like tissues on cartilage regeneration and to provide the information on the development of the maintenance of regenerative cartilage. We conducted the assessments of the effects of anoxic stress on regenerative cartilage, using p53 knockout mice. As results, it was suggested that the blood circulation around the regenerative tissues influenced cartilage regeneration and the blood supply to transplants was an important factor for in vivo metabolism and maintenance of their shape.
