ReGROW CARTLAGE!

Innovative Cartilage Regeneration

Northwestern scientists created a bioactive substance that regenerates high-quality knee cartilage in a large-animal model within six months.

Material Composition

The substance mimics cartilage using bioactive peptides and modified hyaluronic acid, promoting new cartilage rich in collagen II and proteoglycans

Testing and Results

Tested on sheep, the material formed a matrix encouraging high-quality cartilage growth, showing better results than controls.

Potential Impact

This new therapy could replace current treatments, potentially preventing full knee replacements and effectively treating osteoarthritis and sports injuries.
