   I'd love to see Michael Jordan come out of retirement who we all feel good is new with this new therapy or others such as stem cell therapy. Dr. Cassandra Lee: Wow, that's a really tough question.

3. Articular cartilage repair - Wikipedia

   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. Anterior cruciate ligament reconstruction - Wikipedia

   en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Anterior_cruciate_ligament...

   MSCs are multipotent stem cells, meaning they can differentiate into multiple cell types. In the case of mesenchymal stem cells, these cell types include osteoblasts (bone cells), adipocytes (fat cells), and chondrocytes (cartilage cells). Ligament tissue mainly consists of fibroblasts and extracellular matrix. Ligament cells differ in size ...

5. Stem cell transplantation for articular cartilage repair

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

   Marrow-nucleated cells are used every day in regenerative orthopedics. The knee microfracture surgery technique relies on the release of these cells into a cartilage lesion to initiate fibrocartilage repair in osteochondral defects. [13] In addition, this cell population has also been shown to assist in the repair of non-union fractures. [14]

6. Stem-cell therapy - Wikipedia

   en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Stem-cell_therapy

   Stem-cell therapy uses stem cells to treat or prevent a disease or condition. [1] As of 2024, the only FDA-approved therapy using stem cells is hematopoietic stem cell transplantation. [2] [3] This usually takes the form of a bone marrow or peripheral blood stem cell transplantation, but the cells can also be derived from umbilical cord blood.

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.
