ORANGE, Calif. (KABC) -- The cartilage around your knee allows it to glide smoothly as you bend and straighten, but once it's torn it can cause excruciating pain. Local doctors are now investigating a ...

Cell- and animal-based models of bone formation reveal novel mechanisms involved in the cartilage-to-bone phenotype ...

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 ...

A few years ago, researchers developed a novel treatment that seemed to repair tissue and spinal cord injuries. These so-called dancing molecules have now been applied to human cartilage cells, and ...

Injuries to the articular cartilage in different joints, including the knee, are painful and limit mobility. Therefore, researchers at the University of Basel and University Hospital Basel are ...

Northwestern University scientists have developed a cell-free bioactive material comprising a complex network of molecular components that work together as a scaffold to mimic cartilage’s natural ...

Researchers at ETH Zurich have created elastic and stable ear cartilage from human cells grown in a laboratory.

Knee cartilage usually wears down quietly. Over time, that loss can turn walking stairs into a daily calculation. Now a Stanford Medicine-led team reports that blocking a single age-linked protein ...
