Loading-induced Cartilage Regeneration
Cartilage degeneration, often seen in conditions like osteoarthritis (OA), can lead to severe joint dysfunction and pain. Recent advances in arthritis treatment suggest that optimal mechanical loading, a specific type of movement that considers various factors, may promote cartilage regeneration. While the cellular mechanisms behind this process are not fully understood, studies have shown promising results in improving cartilage health through loading-induced therapies. From glycosaminoglycan content improvement to electrical and piezoelectric stimulation, these innovative approaches may change the landscape of arthritis management. Explore the potential of optimal loading for cartilage regeneration and its implications for arthritis treatment.
