A variety of regenerative therapies, including intraarticularly applied hemo-components and cell-based therapies are currently in clinical development and are, in part, in clinical use. Such therapies face several practical opportunities and challenges and could reduce the health care burden, in part by replacing traditional drug therapies and highly invasive surgical interventions with smarter and less invasive treatments.

Researchers at the Terasaki Institute for Biomedical Innovation (TIBI) have turned to a silk protein, silk fibroin (SF), produced by the Bombyx mori silkworm as a biomaterial for tendon repair. The researchers report their method has yielded significant improvements in mesenchymal stem cells (MSCs) tendon regeneration.

An article published in the journal Biomaterials shows that CuS@MnO2 nanoparticles (NPs) synthesized with a short bacteriophage-selected mesenchymal stem cell (MSC) targeting peptide allowed the MSCs to take up these NPs. NP-modified MSCs produced greatly improved therapy of Rheumatoid Arthritis (RA) using stem cells.
