Is it possible to grow tissue in the laboratory, for example to replace injured cartilage? At TU Wien (Vienna), an important step has now been taken towards creating replacement tissue in the lab - ...

A Washington State University research team is working to create an artificial cartilage that is similar to natural cartilage, with a recipe that can be corrected along the way. The researchers, ...

Stanford researchers develop a therapy that regenerates cartilage and blocks osteoarthritis in ageing joints, showing promise for future treatments that restore joint health Stanford researchers have ...

GelrinC-treated patients demonstrated layered cartilage architecture similar to native hyaline cartilage - widely regarded as ...

Cartilage cells generate more protein components (collagen II and aggrecan) for regeneration when treated with fast-moving dancing molecules (left) compared to slower moving molecules. In November ...

A novel cartilage-regenerating injection blocks age-related degeneration pathways and shows potential to prevent osteoarthritis beyond pain control.

Researchers at TU Wien have developed a new way to grow cartilage from stem cells and guide it into basically any shape required. The breakthrough could lead to better ways to patch up injuries.

A single shot that appears to regrow worn knee cartilage and head off arthritis sounds like science fiction, yet early data from aging and cartilage research are edging that idea closer to reality.

In a dramatic example of medical recycling, researchers at Duke University reported last week they have been able to "retrain" fat cells removed during liposuction to create functional cartilage. Not ...

A newly discovered cell type could transform how plastic surgeries are performed—from facial reconstructions to nose jobs. Cartilage transplants are central to many procedures, being used to fix cleft ...
