Tissue engineering of articular cartilage seeks to restore the damaged joint surface, inducing repair of host tissues by delivering repair cells, genes, or polypeptide stimulatory factors to the site of injury. A plethora of devices and materials are being examined for their potential to deliver these agents to wound sites, and to act as scaffolds for ingrowth of new tissue. This review will discuss various promising scaffolds for cartilage tissue engineering applications.
