Arthrose (OA) is a degenerative joint disease that affects millions of people worldwide. It is characterized by the breakdown of cartilage, the tissue that cushions the ends of bones, conduisant à la douleur, rigidité, et une mobilité réduite. Knee OA is the most common type of OA, affecting over 10% of the population over the age of 60.

The Potential of Stem Cells in Treating Knee Osteoarthritis

Stem cells are unspecialized cells that have the ability to develop into various types of specialized cells, y compris les cellules du cartilage. This makes them a promising potential treatment for OA, as they could be used to regenerate damaged cartilage and restore joint function.

Exploring the Role of Stem Cells in Knee Osteoarthritis Regeneration

Several studies have investigated the use of stem cells to treat knee OA. Dans une étude, researchers injected mesenchymal stem cells (MSC) into the knee joints of patients with OA. The results showed that the MSCs were able to differentiate into cartilage cells and reduce pain and stiffness. Another study found that adipose-derived stem cells (Ascs) were also effective in reducing pain and improving function in patients with knee OA.

These studies provide promising evidence for the potential of stem cells in treating knee OA. Cependant, further research is needed to determine the long-term efficacy and safety of this approach. En cas de succès, thérapie par cellules souches could offer a new and effective treatment option for patients with this debilitating condition.
