Single Injection Reverses Osteoarthritis in Animals in Just 4 Weeks
Reported byScienceAlert ↗·Sourced by Goodlede
University of Colorado Boulder researchers demonstrated that a single injection of an engineered slow-release drug-delivery system into damaged joints coaxed cartilage and bone cells to repair themselves within four to eight weeks in animal studies, with early lab tests on human cells from joint-replacement patients showing positive signs.
Results are awaiting peer review and represent animal testing; human clinical trials remain ahead.
