Articular cartilage, damaged by trauma, sports activities or chronic diseases such as osteoarthritis (OA), has a low capacity for regeneration. So far, there is no effective drug or therapy for the definitive treatment, those often evolving to surgical procedures such as arthroplasty. Currently, the aim is to develop a therapy combining the use of biomaterials obtained by tissue engineeri…
It is well known that articular chondral and osteochondral lesions present a very low capability to regenerate. Therefore, the current clinical management is symptomatic or invasive, progressing very often to arthroplasties. Hence, the use of mesenchymal stem cells (MSC) for reconstruction of articular cartilage leads to a promising therapeutic alternative. Our laboratory has observed the…
