  2. Stem cell transplantation for articular cartilage repair

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

    Mesenchymal stem cells (MSCs) are multipotent cells found in multiple human adult tissues, including bone marrow, synovial tissues, and adipose tissues. Since they are derived from the mesoderm, they have been shown to differentiate into bone, cartilage, muscle, and adipose tissue. [1][2] MSCs from embryonic sources have shown promise ...

  3. Articular cartilage damage - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Articular_cartilage_damage

    Articular cartilage damage is often the cause of severe pain, knee swelling, substantial reduction in mobility and severe restrictions to one's activities. Over the last decades, however, research has focused on regenerating damaged joints. These regenerative procedures are believed to delay osteoarthritis of injuries on the articular cartilage ...

  4. Knee cartilage replacement therapy - Wikipedia

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

    The human body's own cartilage is still the best material for lining knee joints. This drives efforts to develop ways of using a person's own cells to grow, or re-grow cartilage tissue to replace missing or damaged cartilage. One cell-based replacement technique is called autologous chondrocyte implantation (ACI) or autologous chondrocyte ...

  5. Microfracture surgery - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Microfracture_surgery

    Microfracture surgery. Left knee-joint from behind, showing interior ligaments. (Lateral meniscus and medial meniscus are cartilage.) Microfracture surgery is an articular cartilage repair surgical technique that works by creating tiny fractures in the underlying bone. This causes new cartilage to develop from a so-called super-clot.

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Osteoarthritis

    Osteoarthritis (OA) is a type of degenerative joint disease that results from breakdown of joint cartilage and underlying bone. [5][6] It is believed to be the fourth leading cause of disability in the world, affecting 1 in 7 adults in the United States alone. [7] The most common symptoms are joint pain and stiffness. [1]

  7. Platelet-rich plasma - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Platelet-rich_plasma

    Platelet-rich plasma (PRP) is an emerging technique in tissue regeneration, increasingly used to enhance healing in dental and oral surgery, particularly for ageing patients. PRP is derived from the patient's blood through centrifugation, concentrating growth factors that are crucial for wound healing and tissue repair.
