The Healing Biology of Human Anterior Cruciate Ligament Cells and Autograft Fibroblasts Used for Reconstruction

The purpose of this study is to examine the ACL and graft tissues to determine how these tissues heal, and to determine biomarkers for ACL healing. This research is being done because we do not know exactly how ACL and graft tissues heal and currently, there is no simple way to measure if these tissues are healing.
