Cartilage health depends on a delicate balance between cartilage matrix synthesis and degradation, and is largely a function of the interplay of anabolic growth factors such as IGF-I and catabolic ...

Researchers used advanced imaging to uncover early molecular changes in bone that may enable earlier diagnosis of ...

A working group develops strategies for regeneration of articular cartilage and has found that natural cartilage matrix is suitable as a biomaterial for improved cartilage regeneration. Just a few ...

In patients with severe osteoarthritis, cartilage can wear so thin that joints essentially transform into bone on bone — without a cushion between. A new therapy that uses synthetic nanofibers to ...

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 ...

Recently, a research team from Chongqing Medical University, led by Prof. Wei Huang, Dr. Wei Bao, and Dr. Yiting Lei, has successfully developed a novel engineered extracellular matrix (eECM) to ...

Cartilage injuries are a common clinical issue, often caused by trauma, severe infections, or degenerative joint diseases. The lack of direct blood supply to cartilage and limited access to nutrients ...

Advanced biologic repairs and robotic-assisted partial knee replacement offer alternatives to total knee surgery.

Osteoarthritis often goes undetected until cartilage damage is advanced, limiting treatment options. A new study shows that molecular changes in subchondral bone occur earlier and can signal disease ...

Beyond the Bone Marrow İSTANBUL, BEşIKTAş, TURKEY, February 3, 2026 /EINPresswire.com/ -- How Stem Cell Transplantation ...

Cartilage coats the outside surface of your bones to allow the bones to glide smoothly at the point where they meet (the joint). It also provides cushioning to absorb shock and avoid joint injuries ...
