Article Synopsis
- Stem cell therapy is an innovative area in orthopaedics that primarily uses mesenchymal stem cells (MSCs) sourced from bone marrow or synovium for tissue regeneration.
- New biomimetic materials and porous, biodegradable scaffolds are being developed to support MSCs while minimizing immune responses, enhancing the creation of musculoskeletal tissues.
- Research suggests that integrating growth factors and gene delivery systems can significantly improve tissue healing, though more randomized controlled trials on humans are necessary to translate these findings into clinical practice.
