Aim: This study aims to assess the effectiveness of therapy of human synovial membrane-derived MSCs (SM-MSC) from OA grade IV patients in treating knee OA.
Methods: SM-MSC were isolated from patients undergoing total knee replacement surgery, cultured to the fourth passage, and characterized using flow cytometry. Differentiation potential was assessed through lineage-specific staining.
Background: Effective postoperative pain control is an important factor for the success of rehabilitation programs. Adductor canal block (ACB) is a recently developed technique.
Objectives: This study aimed to evaluate the application of ACB in patients who underwent knee surgery.
Recently, mesenchymal stem cells (MSCs) have been the most explored cells for cell therapy for osteoarthritis (OA) that can be obtained from various sources. Synovial membrane MSCs (SMMSCs) provide best potential for OA therapy, however they are not widely explored. Conditioned medium of SMMSCs (SMMSCs-CM) rich in growth factors and cytokines can inhibit apoptosis and increase chondrocytes cell proliferation.
