As a vital part of the knee joint, the meniscus acts to prevent the degeneration of articular cartilage and the onset of knee osteoarthritis (OA). Repairing meniscus injuries in the avascular region is still a challenge in orthopaedics. The current p...

Autologous chondrocyte implantation (ACI) is the only UK approved cell therapy or knee cartilage defects which might otherwise progress to osteoarthritis. For ACI, chondrocytes isolated from a healthy cartilage biopsy are expanded in number prior to...
