2. Stem cell transplantation for articular cartilage repair

   en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Stem_cell_transplantation...

   As the number of MSC's that can be isolated from bone marrow is fairly limited, most research in cartilage regeneration has focused on the use of culture-expanded cells. [17] [18] This method can expand cell numbers by 100–10,000 fold over several weeks. Once these MSCs are ready for re-implantation, they are usually transferred with growth ...

   In particular, mesenchymal stem cells have been shown in animal models to regenerate cartilage. Recently, there has been a published case report of decrease in knee pain in a single individual using autologous mesenchymal stem cells. An advantage to this approach is that a person's own stem cells are used, avoiding transmission of genetic diseases.

4. Knee cartilage replacement therapy - Wikipedia

   en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Knee_cartilage_replacement...

   Because mesenchymal stem cells may regenerate cartilage, cartilage growth in human knees using autologous cultured mesenchymal stem cells is under research and preliminary clinical use, and appears to be safe as of 2016. [11] An advantage to this approach is that a person's own stem cells are used, avoiding tissue rejection by the immune system ...

7. Autologous chondrocyte implantation - Wikipedia

   en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Autologous_Chondrocyte...

   Autologous chondrocyte implantation (ACI, ATC code M09AX02 ()) is a biomedical treatment that repairs damages in articular cartilage.ACI provides pain relief while at the same time slowing down the progression or considerably delaying partial or total joint replacement (knee replacement) surgery.
