The treatment also prevented the development of arthritis after knee injuries such as ACL tears often experienced by athletes ...

A treatment that blocks an age-related protein restored cartilage in aging and injured joints by reprogramming existing cells ...

In patients with severe osteoarthritis, cartilage can wear so thin that joints essentially transform into bone on bone — without a cushion between. A new therapy that uses synthetic nanofibers to ...

Scientists at Stanford Medicine have uncovered a breakthrough that could reshape how doctors treat joint damage caused by aging and injury.

Northwestern University researchers almost three years ago introduced an injectable new therapy, which harnessed fast-moving “dancing molecules,” to repair tissues and reverse paralysis after severe ...

In adult humans, cartilage does not have an inherent ability to heal. Northwestern Engineering scientists have developed a new bioactive material that successfully regenerated high-quality cartilage ...

A tale as old as time - an athlete suffers a devastating knee injury, and their dreams are suddenly in jeopardy. Whether it’s an aspiring NFL player, a basketball star, or a weekend warrior, damage to ...

Northwestern University researchers have found the second use for an injectable therapy using fast-moving "dancing molecules" to regenerate tissue rapidly, leading the biochemists group to hope ...

Northwestern University scientists have developed a new bioactive material that successfully regenerated high-quality cartilage in the knee joints of a large-animal model. Although it looks like a ...

Scientists have developed a new bioactive material that successfully regenerated high-quality cartilage in the knee joints of a large-animal model. New material comprises peptides, proteins and ...
