Growing cartilage tissue in the lab could help patiens with injuries, but it is very hard to make the tissue grow in exactly the right shape. A new approach could solve this problem: Tiny spherical ...

A randomized, placebo-controlled study in Pharmaceutical Research documented measurable cartilage regeneration biomarkers at 90 days, a breakthrough for the category* (Vaidya 2025) Three published ...

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 ...

Your knee contains articular cartilage, which lines your bones and allows you to move without pain or friction. Knee cartilage damage occurs when your articular cartilage chips or wears away. In ...

A doctor orders an X-ray for a patient with a knee ache. The bones look fine, and the most likely prognosis is arthritis, which occurs when the soft tissue between joints breaks down. But X-rays are ...

Researchers have identified the SHP protein as a key regulator that suppresses cartilage-degrading enzymes and slows osteoarthritis progression.
