2. 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.

3. Stem cell transplantation for articular cartilage repair

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

   Stem cells, as a concept, originated as a theory in the 19th century to potentially allow certain tissues to self-renew. There are five types of stem cells, and MSC's are multi-potent, meaning they are cells that have the ability to develop into more than one type of specialized cell. Mesenchymal stem cells were originally discovered and ...

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 ...

   A kidney and stem cells from his sister Alex Hernandez was 27 when he received a kidney transplant and a dose of stem cells from his sister as one of Akkina’s patients and a trial participant.

6. Renal stem cell - Wikipedia

   en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Renal_stem_cell

   Renal stem cells are self-renewing, multipotent stem cells which are able to give rise to all the cell types of the kidney. It is involved in the homeostasis and repair of the kidney, and holds therapeutic potential for treatment of kidney failure. [1]

7. Tissue transplantation - Wikipedia

   en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Tissue_transplantation

   The use of human pluripotent stem cells, specifically induced pluripotent stem cells, offers the cultivation of personalized tissues that minimize rejection risks. [34] Moreover, they enable direct tissue repair within the body, potentially sidestepping the need for surgery and reducing infection risks.
