Northwestern University researchers develop bioactive material for regenerating high-quality cartilage in knee joints, potentially preventing knee surgeries and treating osteoarthritis.
Researchers at Northwestern University have developed a bioactive material that successfully regenerated high-quality cartilage in the knee joints of large-animal models, such as sheep.
The innovative substance, consisting of a complex network of molecular components that mimic cartilage's natural environment, showed evidence of enhanced repair and growth of new cartilage containing natural biopolymers within six months.
This breakthrough could potentially prevent knee replacement surgeries, treat degenerative diseases like osteoarthritis, and repair sports-related injuries such as ACL tears.
