Exosomes in cartilage microenvironment regulation and cartilage repair. [PDF]

open access: yesFront Cell Dev Biol
Osteoarthritis (OA) is a debilitating disease that predominantly impacts the hip, hand, and knee joints. Its pathology is defined by the progressive degradation of articular cartilage, formation of bone spurs, and synovial inflammation, resulting in pain, joint function limitations, and substantial societal and familial burdens.

Cell therapy for cartilage repair [PDF]

open access: yesEmerging Topics in Life Sciences, 2021
Regenerative medicine, using cells as therapeutic agents for the repair or regeneration of tissues and organs, offers great hope for the future of medicine. Cell therapy for treating defects in articular cartilage has been an exemplar of translating this technology to the clinic, but it is not without its challenges. These include applying regulations,
