Mesenchymal Stem Cells for Treating Articular Cartilage Defects and Osteoarthritis
Articular cartilage damage and osteoarthritis are the most common joint diseases. Joints are prone to damage caused by sports injuries or aging, and such damage regularly progresses to more serious joint disorders, including osteoarthritis, which is a ...

Induced pluripotent stem cells (iPSCs) are a promising resource for allogeneic cartilage transplantation to treat articular cartilage defects that do not heal spontaneously and often progress to debilitating conditions, such as osteoarthritis.

Significance Cartilage is essential in vertebrate development and adulthood. Cartilage growth plates ensure skeletal growth until closing at puberty, and articular cartilage ensures lifelong structural and functional integrity of joints.

Strategies for Articular Cartilage Repair and Regeneration
Articular cartilage is an avascular tissue, with limited ability to repair and self-renew. Defects in articular cartilage can induce debilitating degenerative joint diseases such as osteoarthritis.

Mechanical stress determines the configuration of TGFβ activation in articular cartilage
Our incomplete understanding of osteoarthritis (OA) pathogenesis has significantly hindered the development of disease-modifying therapy. The functional relationship between subchondral bone (SB) and articular cartilage (AC) is unclear.

Significance Osteoarthritis (OA) is the most prevalent joint disease and has reached epidemic proportions in the United States. Currently, there are no effective therapeutic approaches to treat OA. Thus, there is an urgent need to develop mechanistically-

Enhanced Tissue Integration During Cartilage RepairIn VitroCan Be Achieved by Inhibiting Chondrocyte Death at the Wound Edge [PDF]
Objective: Experimental wounding of articular cartilage results in cell death at the lesion edge. The objective of this study was to investigate whether inhibition of this cell death results in enhanced integrative cartilage repair.
