A Simplified Method for the Aspiration of Bone Marrow from Patients Undergoing Hip and Knee Joint Replacement for Isolating Mesenchymal Stem Cells and<i> In Vitro</i> Chondrogenesis

<div>Bone marrow-derived MSCs differentiating into adipocytes (a) and osteoblasts (b–d). Lipid droplets are visible in adipocytes (arrow, a) and mineralization: partly dark (unstained, b), and Alizarin Red-stained bright field (c) and phase-contrast (d) calcium deposits developed in osteoblasts.</div>
