Abstract

See full text

Disclosed are engineered, living, three-dimensional connective tissue constructs comprising connective tissue cells. In some embodiments, the connective tissue cells are derived from multi-potent cells such as mesenchymal stem/stromal cells. In some embodiments, the cells are cohered to one another. In some embodiments, the multi-potent cells have been exposed to one or more differentiation signals to provide a living, three-dimensional connective tissue construct. In some embodiments, the constructs are substantially free of pre-formed scaffold at the time of use. Also disclosed are implants for engraftment, arrays of connective tissue constructs for in vitro experimentation, as well as methods of making the same.
