Researchers at TU Wien have developed a new way to grow cartilage from stem cells and guide it into basically any shape required. The breakthrough could lead to better ways to patch up injuries.

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 ...

Two innovative new developments out of the same laboratory have demonstrated that degraded cartilage can be repaired and regrown, first by using "dancing molecules" to target the proteins needed for ...

Sharks don't have bones. Instead, their skeletons are made from mineralized cartilage that helps them constantly move through water. To understand the internal "sharkitecture" that helps keep these ...

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 ...

In small study, doctors used experimental procedure to help aging knees. — -- Millions of Americans suffer from painful knee joints as a result from damaged knee cartilage. Damage can produce ...

Your hip cartilage is a smooth surface that cushions the ball and socket of the hip joint to keep your bones from rubbing against each other. A hip injury or trauma to the hip could wear down your ...
