Chondral defects are common and disabling. The development of pharmacological approaches for cartilage repair requires the availability of in vivo models which are amenable for gain and loss of function and ideally to genetic modification. In this chapter, we describe a method to induce full-thickness cartilage defects which, in young DBA/1 mice, heal spontaneously, but fail to heal in C57BL/6 mice of the same age or in aged DBA/1 mice. This model (or variants) has been used for genetic screenings to identify genes associated to repair capacity, to study stem cells involved in cartilage repair, and to study the function of molecules involved in repair mechanisms.
