Articular cartilage tissue is known to have poor capability of self-repair. Therefore, tissue engineering has significantly emerged as an alternative solution for articular cartilage restoration. Poly(lactic-co-glycolic acid) (PLGA) and fibrin have been widely used as biocompatible scaffolds materia...
