Cells from cow knee joints used to grow new cartilage tissue in laboratory

Thursday, January 21, 2016 - 13:28 in Biology & Nature

In an effort to develop a method for cartilage tissue engineering, researchers have successfully used cartilage cells from cow knee joints. By creating a successful method with conditions conducive to growing healthy cartilage tissue, the findings could help lead to a new treatment cure for osteoarthritis using stem cell-based tissue engineering, a new report suggests.
