Rapidly regrowing cartilage with 'dancing molecules' and 'rubbery goo'
Posted by ArielTechGeek 267 days ago (https://newatlas.com)
Two innovative new developments out of the same laboratory have demonstrated that degraded cartilage can be repaired and regrown, first by using "dancing molecules" to target the proteins needed for tissue regeneration, then with the aid of a hybrid biomaterial that acts as scaffolding to encourage cartilage growth. They have the potential to do what nature can't do on its own – regrow cartilage
Knee osteoarthritis injection cuts pain by 58%, regenerates cartilage
Posted by ArielTechGeek 276 days ago (https://newatlas.com)
A single injection of a new, off-the-shelf stem cell therapy for knee osteoarthritis significantly improved pain and function for up to 12 months in 75% of participants involved in a clinical trial. The treatment also has the potential to halt the disease’s progression.Continue ReadingCategory: Health & Wellbeing, LifestyleTags: Osteoarthritis, Stem Cells, Arthritis
Replacement cartilage can grow in any shape with 3D-printed "spheroids"
Posted by ArielTechGeek 443 days ago (https://newatlas.com)
Researchers at TU Wien have developed a new way to grow cartilage from stem cells and guide it into basically any shape required. The breakthrough could lead to better ways to patch up injuries.Continue ReadingCategory: Medical, ScienceTags: Cartilage, Stem Cells, Regenerative Medicine, Regenerative, Regeneration, TU Wien, Cells, 3D Printing
