A new study shows that engineered, cell-free cartilage can safely support bone regeneration without provoking immune ...

Cartilage is the body’s most stubborn tissue. Once it wears away, it’s usually gone for good. This biological dead-end is the ...

Stanford scientists regrow cartilage by blocking an ageing enzyme, reversing arthritis damage in mice and human tissue ...

A microscropy image of the new biomaterial. Nanofibers are pink; hyaluronic acid is shown in purple. (Samuel I. Stupp/Northwestern University) (CN) — Scientists at Northwestern University created a ...

Northwestern University researchers have found the second use for an injectable therapy using fast-moving "dancing molecules" to regenerate tissue rapidly, leading the biochemists group to hope ...

Scientists have long assumed that once the smooth cartilage in a damaged knee wears away, the body has little chance of restoring it. A new line of research is challenging that assumption by showing ...

A treatment that helps worn-out joints grow new cartilage may sound like science fiction, but new research from Stanford ...

(A) UMAP visualization of the 13,363 chondrocytes from healthy human cartilage. Color represents the chondrocyte subset. (B) UMAP visualization of the expression of representative marker genes for ...

For decades, damaged joint cartilage has been a one-way street toward pain, stiffness, and eventually metal and plastic replacements. Now researchers are uncovering ways to coax the body into ...
